It felt like the four of us were going to be something.

During a Gala for raising awareness about women’s healthcare, a few heroes show up in both costume and civilian persona.

Wonder Woman is proudly walking around in a Greek style toga and talking about how the women of her home land care for one another and never doubt each others word on health issues. She is shamelessly challenging the men in the audience to better understand the women they claim to love and advocate for.

She’s the most obvious one in attendance, though if you look closer you will see Raven and Miss Martian talking with a the most obviously sexist group of men and making them all sweat bullets.

Others, like Zatana and all of the Bat kids, are in their civilian uniforms.

The most important guest in this line up, in the sense that her husband is making Bruce pout like an angry kitten, is Dinah.

Because Dinah is there to make a speech so naturally her husband Ollie is there to support her.

Yet when the speech is done and the wandering around begins, Bruce watches as Ollie hangs around one person like they’re old pals.

Tim Drake, Bruce’s most professional son during public events, is laughing and clinging to Oliver Queen like he’s some kind of celebrity or cousin he only gets to see once a year. The blond man had his arm around the younger Luke a parent and is chatting away with Tim as the two half talk with business partners and other socialites or so obviously just between themselves that the other people politely leave them to it.

Bruce had never seen Tim so relaxed at a Gala, the growing young man usually taking the time to go full business and organise meetings, deals or just the usual routine of holding reputation.

Yet there is Oliver Queen acting like they’re old friends.

Like Tim is his son.

Naturally, Dick and Barbara notice how Bruce is glaring at Queen and trying to hold back a frown of genuine hurt and jealousy. Part of them feels bad, but Tim and Oliver Queen are both made for this world, so it makes sense they get along in it.

But then Diana, who doesn’t mean any harm and is just talking to Bruce Wayne about how she approves of his work on the ecosystem casually leans down and whispers to him as Batman, “It’s always so nice to see how those two get along.”

Bruce’s eye twitched a little and he doesn’t bother trying to feign curiosity and grumbles out, “explain.”

Wonder Woman laughs loud and cheerful, which the room is now sued to hearing and jsut assume Brucie Wayne is trying to flirt with an Amazon which is not at all surprising.

“Oh, Bruce. Haven’t you noticed how Tim follows Jim’s round whenever they are at the tower? He’s like a little duckling. One time I heard him asking if Ollie wanted to come to his school event to see his science project!”

She goes on to talk about how Ollie must seem like an uncle to him and doesn’t pay attention to Bruce’s internal spiral.

By the end of the night Bruce looks like he might start crying, though only his children can see that.

Tim and Ollie finally make their way towards him after having a talk to some older woman about something or rather and Bruce puts on a mask quickly, acting as if he isn’t about to strangle Oliver Queen as they get ready to leave.

Dick steers Damian away and asks Duke to get the girls and wait in the car, knowing full well Bruce is going to embarrasses himself.

Rather quickly, Tim picks up on his distress and pulls away from Ollie’s side hug and approaches Bruce, “Is something wrong?”

Bruce smiles a terrifying thing, full of teeth and hidden malice, “Not at all. Tell me, when did you two get so buddy buddy?”

Oliver pales a little, but luckily Dinah is there to stop him from saying the wrong thing.

With a smooth voice she speaks, coming forward to press a kiss to Tim’s head and then back to her husband, “Tim and Ollie met at one of the Drake’s charity events years ago. This really was lovely, but we must be going, I don’t trust the younger kids to bot cause you or with Captain Marvel.”

With that there gone while Bruce is faced with the fact that Oliver may ah e met one of his babies before him.

But Tim isn’t a fool and he loves his dad, so he hugs Bruce around the waist and clings to him like he’s ten instead of twenty two. He leans back just slightly and gives a cheeky grin with a softness in his eyes, “I love you, dad.”

Dick coos while Barbara snaps a photo as Bruce squeezes his son and somehow manages to not cry.

Speaking of Disney characters split across multiple twst characters, in the way that Lilia isn’t the 3 fairies but takes the fairies’ “role” in Silver’s life, i’ve always thought that Ace took the role of Alice in Heartslabyul’s storyline.

He’s new to school, the one most baffled by Heartslabyul’s nonsensical nature, he directly challenges and conflicts with Riddle, which is directly compared to Alice challenging the Queen in the courtroom.

I actually thought that Ace was meant to be Alice until the RSA silhouettes were revealed

[ Referencing this post! ]

That’s the thing with Twst (and what I believe was always the case). Even if the marketing outright tells us “oh, this character is twisted from this one specific Disney character”, it’s never actually 100% true. Officially, Ace is twisted from a card soldier (and, more specifically, the Ace of Hearts). However, he also plays the role of Alice in book 1, and therefore isn’t purely “just a twisted card solider”.

This is the case for tons of Twst characters, so I’ve never understood the fandom obsession with trying to match a single Disney character with a single Twst character. *coughsJACKHOWL*coughs* Like, sure, it’s fun to speculate—but it’s not worth splitting hairs over because every Twst character borrows from multiple Disney IPs.

Sometimes there is overlap in inspiration and references too. For example, I’ve seen people call Yuu the “Alice” of Twst since they, like Alice, transmigrate from another world, own a cat (Grim to Alice’s Dinah), and often ask a lot of questions (mirroring Alice’s curiosity) in order to try and get a better understanding of their new world. But as you’ve pointed out, Ace also has “Alice” traits: he’s new to NRC, he’s baffled by the nonsensicalness of his dorm, and he frequently challenges Riddle (our QoH) and other figures of authority. So we’ve got Yuu AND Ace… and now we’re preparing for a character that is formally twisted from Alice.
