Peter exhausted, lifting reps with Dick spotting and Jason coaching
In my mind Peter treats Bruce like they’re that one 40 y/o + 20 something y/o coworker duo in every corporate office
Getting a comment thinking someone really fw your fic only to get jumpscared bc it’s just one of those generic commission bots 💔💔 like leave me alonnnnneeee 😭
Jason Todd + Peter Parker roommate things that just make sense (to me)
Very sparse, “we just moved in…2 years ago” decor
A strategically placed couch from that time Jason bled out on the carpet
Concerning no. of album records and dvds bc Jason prefers physical media
Shelves drilled into the walls that might initially appear to be for a cat but are actually just for Peter to hang out on
Yelling “can you get me xyz” from the shower/bath
Entering one another’s rooms unannounced to commiserate
But half the time is literally just Peter yapping + looming over Jason while he works
Using the other as an excuse to get out of things alll the time
“Nah can’t do tonight B, Pete’s cooking.” “Tell him to come too then.” “…no”
Parallel play in the afternoon where Jason reads and Peter procrastinates on tt
Peters room -> curated chaos
Jason’s room-> prison neat
To the point where you can kind of tell which areas of the apartment they frequent / occupy but Peter is still a good sport about cleaning
Refusing tracking devices from the bats but having each other on life360 😭
Bc it’s about the principle of the thing
But also bc Peter’s idea of “on my way” can mean anything between 5 minutes to an hour and a half
Coffee runs that lead to random side quests
Haircuts with Peter who promised he could “do a lineup frfr”
Having to get a professional buzz from said haircut
Hosting “folding parties” bc Jason being literally allergic to folding laundry (and paying Damian 50 bucks PER BASKET to come over and do it) somehow seems more logical
Peter having an electric toothbrush and without fail waking lightsleeper!Jason up every morning with it
Grocery list that’s just protein powder, steak and whatever fucking fruits in season (they’re both REALLY into summer fruits)
Literally nothing in their fridge at any given moment but a white claw, some deli meats and buckoff pesto from Peter’s club sandwich phase
Also having like…one of each dish / utensil per person and that’s IT
Bc they both hate / suck at dishes
So much so that Jason invested in this industrial washer just to cut down on dish cleaning time
At least that’s the conclusion his friends from his grad program have come to.
How else do you explain your only traceable digital footprint being a tagged photo of you sitting in frame with THE Dick Grayson…vacationing…on a yacht…in Greece???
And did you seriously think any Star City girls who’d grown up in the early 00s wouldn’t recognise the redhead in the captains chair?!!!! Roy Harper might be a private socialite these days but the world didn’t just forget him 😭 You can’t just casually remain “family friends” with Oliver Queen’s son and call it coincidence.
At this point, are you even trying to beat the allegations??
And it’s not like his grad friends look at him differently for it - they’ve paired up with him enough times in assignments and study groups to know he’s smart enough to have gotten into the program without any help. But it doesn’t change the fact that it’s still…jarring.
Like when he came back the other week with a tan around his eyes and proceeded to remain entirely oblivious to the Peter-shaped snowboarder that showed up on Dick’s story hitting the Swedish slopes.
Or when the first and last time he posted was a skyline sunset pic, not realising the hotel in the corner made it painfully obvious he was posting from one of Gotham’s million dollar high rise apartments 💔
And let’s not forget the time he rocked up with a very inane looking watch after his birthday (‘vintage’ was a very interesting way of saying limited edition)
But being rich and lowkey about it wouldn’t even have been a big problem if the rumour hadn’t finally got around to him and he just?? flat out denied it???
…like dude. It’s one thing to be pictured in the background of an exclusive gala after party whispering something to Tim fucking Drake - but it’s another thing to entirely to deny being there at all 😭 bffrrr
Now in his defence, most of these things can sort of be explained away.
Like he hadn’t really been attending the gala - he only stuck around for the three minutes it took to find Tim and pass on the keys for robin motorcycle he borrowed - so how was he supposed to anticipate getting photographed?
And Sweden was a mission! God forbid a man hit the slopes after for some JL sanction stress relief.
There aren’t even any affluent ‘Parker’ families in Gotham - but some time between discussing what he did that Thursday night and why it was attending the private birthday event for the Wayne’s, it occurred to him that he could just…go with it.
Living with harmless (albeit annoying) rumours that he was a ‘weirdly humble’ nepobaby was a lot easier than explaining why his proximity to wealth was only really as a result of being in proximity to Dick (which is to say, they were related, but in a very alternate universe, hard to explain to a Victorian child sort of way.)
When peter was very very drunk one time he changed all the contacts with ginger hair on his phone to just ‘Ginger’ and never got around fixing it / figuring out who was who. So now he just. Voice commands his phone to ‘call ginger’ and hopes it picks Kori or Roy or Wally and not fucking JASON LMAOO
Thinking about TASM Peter and his bickering frenemy Wally
Who he definitely should’ve at least tried to get along with. Right? Since they apparently have sososo much in common and Dick was so adamant on introducing them to one another that he spent days hyping it up - all for the two for them to just? Not click.
At all.
Which only makes Dick confused because he’s friends with both of them…and aren’t they both STEM majors? hello??
In reality though, it’s like the difference between studying English creative writing and English classic literature (Peter: yeah, one’s actually useful- Wally: oh shut the HELL up-)
They couldn’t be more different. Peter’s dry n sarcastic while Wally’s more earnest and somewhat blunt. They can both come off a little too strongly and the clash is almost immediate.
One of Peter’s favourite pastimes is just rage baiting the guy and Dick forgets how easily riled up Wally can get so any meet-up he has involving the both of them eventually ends up being 20% conversation and 80% loud debating.
Though it’s definitely not as bad as it was when they first met and they’ve certainly made efforts to be (somewhat) civil these days. Like they don’t ACTUALLY harbour ill will towards one another and they can both acknowledge the work that they each put into protecting their respective cities…they just won’t do much more than that LMAO they find it easier to bicker than to hold a normal conversation.
The loss of autonomy in Jason regression / “aged-down” fics
Freak me out so bad! Bc what do you MEAN Jason’s a clueless kid again stuck with the same family he went no contact with / has a rocky relationship with (for very valid reasons) and you thought the only solution to bringing them back together was to make one party violently vulnerable (to a point where he can no longer consent to or engage in any meaningful conversation) while giving the other party the opportunity to pretend nothing ever happened and take no accountability for what caused them to seperate in the first place with the excuse of needing to ‘raise him’ oh god I CANT DO IT I CANT DO ITTTTT
Taking advantage of a situation to offload a character’s guilty conscience by giving them what is essentially a “redo” without allowing them to take any real steps towards reconciliation undermines the sincerity of their remorse. It does not make them a better person. He can’t even accept their apology! He has no idea what they’re talking about - but they do. And they KNOW he would never ever be this vulnerable with them again willingly a second time around (I mean…look what happened the first time!!)
Idk it doesn’t sit right with me. Idm the tag if they maintain their age mentally (because at least they’re still present) but if they don’t and the fic is set to post-rebirth era Jason Todd…I just can’t - I’m sorry. It really makes me feel sick to my stomach.
I get jumpscared when I see fics where Alfred’s written to be like..a positive “father / grandfather figure” to Jason and sometimes I stick around to see what logical hoops they’ll jump through to explain why Jason and the guy (who made consistent snide remarks to Bruce alluding to and outright saying sometimes that Jason’s fucked up and “beyond saving”) are actually sosososo close and loving and dear to one another LMAOO
(Spoiler: they never address it - but I hope one day someone might)
