The true reason why the Joker killed Jason wasn't because he wanted to hurt Batman or anything, it was because One Time, after Joker was caught and was being dragged away, Jason made Bruce laugh So Hard that he had to use Jim Gordon as someone to lean on, that people Genuinely Thought that he had been dosed with Joker Venom until he calmed down
But nope, just a really good joke
And from that day on, The Joker hated the second Robin with a passion
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD

Some Actual Science™ Thoughts on Maximum Ride
No one is gonna jump straight to modifying human(oid)s if they want to know if something works – humans grow far too slow for them to know how the hybridization affects an organism throughout its life span. There were probably dozens of mice for each bird kid testing the genes they spliced into them. There were also probably a few dogs… which means dogs with wings. You see where this is going; I can, in fact, explain Total.
There are also probably a lot of failed cross-species hybrids—trials with just one nucleotide wrong (a single nucleotide polymorphism, or SNP) who have horrible genetic diseases like EB. The Flock are just one in many clones with their genome; all the others were terminated before or shortly after birth due to defects or were the creatures in terrible pain beside them. Same goes for Erasers and any other hybrid the School was trying to create.
Also, though, for the record, no one is going to treat their experimental subjects as bad as the Flock & co. supposedly were. It trashes the integrity of your results if the subject isn’t in optimum health. They would’ve been pretty well cared-for, all things considered.
Science 100% operates on an “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” principle, so they wouldn't put all the effort in to make new hybrids if they already had six that worked. The Flock clones, including Maya, indicate that Itex produced or at least intended to produce many individuals of the same “model” once they developed one that worked. What if “Maximum” “Angel” etc. are model designations, not names
The Flock is worth a lot of money. Like, boatloads. A decade of research preceding Max and then hundreds of hours of manpower and hundreds of dollars in supplies and tech for each hybrid after that means they'd cost north of ten million USD each.
Speaking of expenses, the School must have had a damn good reason to commit to something as costly as the Flock. Bird kids have zero medical relevance and “to save the world” isn’t going to convince any grant board to fund you if they won’t also see a financial payout. My guess for the only thing that would've justified making the Flock? Military value. They were weapons.
Steve Rogers is a firm believer of museums giving back the artefacts that they stole, not only because he genuinely believes people deserve to have their things back, but also because the Smithsonian refuses to give him back his shit, and if he doesn't get his family recipe book, his mother's jacket and his father's hat, god willing he will-
Thought
Okay so, apparently in one of the PnF books it's revealed that while Perry is the top agent, he is assigned to the least credible threat (aka Doof), which... doesn't make sense
But then I thought of something.
Y'see one show I watch every once in a while is The Rookie, and in it there's this thing called "the golden ticket" - basically, if a cop does something above and beyond their duty, like bringing down a gang with only another cop supporting you but you being the one to call the shots
So, consider: Perry gained a golden ticket some time before he met Doof (thinking taking down a world-wide villain), and he used it to get assigned the least dangerous villain in Danville so he could be close to his family
My favourite headcanon about Darth Bane is that, in Canon (no I don't care about his Legends version), he was a low ranking Acolyte who was at the right place and right time to survive. He wasn't trained to be an *actual* Lord Of The Sith or anything, people thought he was going to always remain an Acolyte and be killed by either another Acolyte or by someone ranked higher, but he survived by pure luck and declared himself the Lord Of The Sith
And that's why many of the skills the Sith had in the past have been forgotten/are only found centuries later, because even Sith Holocrons could tell that this was a lineage of Acolytes and not True Sith.
Random Lists of TTS headcanons (mostly about Quirin and the Dark Kingdom) that I have:
Quirin became a Brotherhood member when he had a 'Home Alone' moment with Edmund and his wife because he thought they thieves (they broke in because it was raining HORRIBLY)
Quirin was in charge of the Brotherhood, in the sense that although Edmund as the King was in charge, Quirin was the one dealing with the group as a whole
There were more Brotherhood members, but they either retired, died or are simply lost in the world after the fall of the Dark Kingdom
The Brotherhood members had noble titles and pieces of land, Quirin had a BIG farming land (as the head in charge) and he used to help around before the Kingdom Fell. He used a few techniques he learned later on when he became a full time farmer (not all because different crops and different types of land)
You can find small communities from the Dark Kingdom moving around still, looking for some place to settle (and they eagerly go back to the Kingdom when Edmund starts rebuilding it)
The DK and Corona used to have a little bit of Beef because sun vs moon, that's why Quirin settling (probably with other people, lbh) there with the piece of the scroll was a good move
Corona was funded or helped fund by Demanitus
Demanitus is originally from the Dark Kingdom
Quirin was in the process of retiring when the Dark Kingdom fell
The Brotherhood all have specific face tattoos, but by the time Eugene was born they were only mandatory to use during events and things like that, hence why Quirin didn't have one, though if you wanted a permanent tattoo you could have it (hence Adira and Hector)
OR all the tattoos are temporary, Adira and Hector just have been reapplying theirs
The Great Tree used to be the border for the Dark Kingdom, hence why Hector set up shop in it
the Queen Ghost we saw was the one who helped fight against Zhan Tiri the first time around
Edmund (or at least, the Monarch that came before him) was the one who gave the Mind Trap to the Keeper, since he didn't have Any itent to use it
The place where the Mind Trap was was very Hush Hush, Cassandra only found out thanks to Zhan Tiri finding it out herself, BUT the existence of the Mind Trap was at least well known in the DK and was one of the 'cons' to joining the Brotherhood
The Mind Trap was originally meant to make sure that the Brotherhood wouldn't turn against the crown, the moonstone And to make sure that if a fight every happened, they would act in harmony. It's a 'made with good itentions, Very Bad Execution type of thing'
Eugene didn't reject his royal title from the DK, but he won't be it's King Outside of possibly becoming a temporary one until one of his and Rapunzel's kids are old enough to take over
To try and fix the plothole in season 3: people Forgot that Quirin was a Brotherhood member AND they had contacted (or at least TRIED TO) Adira and Hector at some point and they thought they weren't under Cassandra's control
Eugene grew a couple of inches between the movie and the series and that was because the two times he was healed by Rapunzel, he was healed
People either think that Cassandra was dead OR Cassandra was actually banned from Corona (and the Dark Kingdom) - she isn't getting away without consequences people
Varian had a therapist while in prison that he was forced to see, wether or not they worked or if they were a Saporian spy I haven't decided yet
The ACTUAL reason why the resistence against the Saporian was so small wasn't because of 'loyalty to the crown', it was because they had tried and it Blew on their faces and thus King Frederik and Queen Arianna aren't the only victims of memory wipe. Rapunzel doesn't know this because, well, would you admit to the rebellion to the crown?
Eugene and Lance, later on, are volunteers on Orphanages in Corona and Eugene got a LOT of funds given to them and goes to personally check to see if they are being used properly and that the kids are being taken care of well
the DK fondly call Eugene the 'fail prince' not because of anything he did but because his fighting skills are far below what the royal standard was.
I said this before but: The Queen of the Dark Kingdom trid to destroy the Moonstone, possibly because she was plagued by nightmares of what would happen in the future/of the stone hurting the Kingdom and her family
Do you think Dick managing to convince people that he is carefree/impulsive is one of the greatest acts of manipulation that he did?
Since he managed to convince many people - both in and out of universe - that he is impulsive, as if to be a vigilante, the leader of various teams, heck, an trapeze artist, doesn't take a lot of planning and being careful, being prepared
