I love how Tim yells at Kon that he's going to kill him, but he means, "MORON I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU! THIS IS DANGEROUS! I'M WORRIED! BE CAREFUL! I LOVE YOU!!"

I think for me, the reason Grayson is the Dick thesis is that when you strip everything away from him he can no longer hide behind the performance of being Dick Grayson.

To expand on this slightly. He's very much a performer in Grayson, he never stops, but it becomes all the more obvious that that's what it is, a performance. The subtle shifts in his character when he's alone, when he's waiting for Bruce to pick up on the other end of line, make it clear that it's all a front.

And Grayson 5 becomes a turning point. That's the issue that has Dick alone, with no one watching for the longest. He's at the end of the line, and the need to perform that drives him wanes. The issues dealing with Bruce's memory loss show more moments of this stripped-down Dick, a Dick who thinks he's been forgotten, he becomes a performer without an audience.

Dick's terrified of being truly perceived. I don't think he truly likes having eyes on him, but he knows they're watching, so every act is a performance. Every word is carefully crafted to give the exact impression that he wants. What do you do when all you know and are is a lie and there is no one left to pretend to?

Robin was really trying to genuinely guess Anarky's password with anarchists' names and then said, "wait a second, Anarky is an idiot!" And then correctly guessed that the password was password

I'm a very big fan of the “one of the ways Batman fights crime is by making the bad guys afraid he could be anywhere”. The “he’s not in every shadow, but he could be in any shadow” thing.

I think it would be fun to mix that with the way the rest of the batfam is drawn when they're in shadows:

the glowy eyes and splashes of vibrant colour, especially with Nightwing's symbol looking like it's actually reflective.

So now I'm thinking:

imagine if Gothamites realized that dangerous people get really uneasy when they keep seeing things that, out of the corner of their eye, might look like a vigilante. To the point that they avoid areas where, let's say, an old poster on the wall is just that shade of yellow that keeps jumpscaring them every time they turn. Or that old trash can that still has a patch of green paint that hasn't peeled away yet. Not even realizing what makes them nervous, just knowing that a particular place makes them jumpy. Stuff like that.

So to keep themselves a little safer Gothamites just start… adding little things like that in their neighborhoods. Nothing that outright references the Bats - stuff like that might get vandalised or just lose the effect if it's recognised, but things like:

- plants on window sills in flower pots or vases in bright colors

- little shiny trinkets in the windows that just might be mistaken for a flash of a utility belt

- colorful curtains get very popular for children's bedrooms

- someone sticking a piece of blue reflective vinyl on a chimney visible from the street, so that as you walk you see a little flash of electric blue when the light from streetlights hits it just right

- people painting a pair of dots with glow-in-the-dark white paint high up on walls by fire escapes or in dark alleys, that look like glowing eyes

So basically I want Gothamites to invent protective charms and amulets which have exactly zero supernatural properties and aren’t intended to have any, but still very much work lmao

#DC #Batman #this is fucken neat as a concept oooh
