#anti stephcass

[crashout-cain]

Tate Brombal listen to me. We need you Tate. We NEED you to write Stephcass having sex on page next week to cancel out the inevitable egregious fanon fallout of the upcoming WFA sister-zoning. If you don't do this we're gonna lose ground in the war Tate. I know you're one of us, I believe you will do the right thing

steph dating cass would be a great move for a million reasons but mostly because i think it's really funny to consider bruce wayne jumping for joy after tim finally breaks up with steph only for her to show back up as cass's girlfriend a few months later. she's never letting that man breathe and i love that for her <3

[riverstyxxs]

STEPCASS ISNT BATCEST YA'LL, WFA ISN'T CANON!!! KEEP SHIPPING AND REBELLING, MY FELLOW STEPHCASS SHIPPERS!!!

[stephscassie]

Everyone is having a reasonable crashout. Calling Cass and Steph 'sisters' is an unforgivable sin.

[punkeropercyjackson]

Idrc if people don't include Stephanie Brown as a Robin because it saves her from tokenization and girlbossification.It's people not including Duke Thomas as a Batboy/Batkid or her as a Robin but not him i got beef with.You can wave this white girl in my face but you can't make her representation unless you include the brother and turn her into a sistah

[ben10nerd]

Still not over the rage of WFA calling stephcass sisters and this is after I spent a good while ranting to @jjlovesgoodies (sorry btw). In this rage I have proceeded to read the new batgirl run (I had started reading it before I just forgot to catch up when new volumes came out) and oh my fucking God these two are so gay for each other

FUCKING LOOK AT THIS SHIT SHE HALLUCINATES STEPH ON THE VERGE OF DEATH. STEPHANIE BROWN IS THE ONE WHO CASS THINKS OF! IF THEY ARE SISTERS THEN THAT IS SOME FUCKING INCEST RIGHT THERE

IM SORRY JASON JUST BEING THERE IN THE MIDDLE IS SO FUNNY

[cloudtaleblog]

i think its funny that on tumblr people love fanon batfam ships

birdflash? love! timkon? love! jayroy? love! damijon? love!

but twitter?

birdflash and timkon have shippers, yeah, but theyre not the most popular ship over there

jayroy and damijon? you are on the chopping block, everyone throws tomatoes at you, you get booed at

and then stephcass is universally loved

[instant-sandwich]

Imo, (not that anyone cares)

"Batcest" isn't gross because they're "related"...they're not...they're all adopted.. I think people (including me) find it gross Because people find it resembles child grooming relationships just a little too closely...

In ships following cannon timeline, the majority of them became robin at a young age while the other Robins were way older.

Jason became Robin after Dick... I'd find it understandable if someone wants to head cannon something like young Jason having a crush on Dick but having them date when they're older is weird because that would mean Dick is okay with dating someone he helped in raising and wanted to adopt himself. It also feels too close to grooming...

Same with Jason/Tim.

However, I find relationships where both the characters haven't known each other since one was a child and the other an adult or older teen isn't "batcest". It's even included in the comics

Steph dating anyone isn't weird because she didn't grow up practically being raised by any of them. She dated Tim in cannon...I could argue the same with Duke...(All depending ofc)

Steph dating Damian would be "batcest" tho

Steph knows Damian as a little kid and it would still feel too close to grooming.

If you write a fic based off of a completely different timeline I think it could work out in the sense that it wouldn't feel as gross as fics following cannon but character relationships wouldn't be the same at all. The entire point of them being close to each other and family IS the fact that they've basically raised each other/been raised together.

Ngl, whenever I come across someone defending "batcest" because they're not related I feel like that person doesn't have siblings (blood related or not)

A sibling isn't a sibling because they're related to you.

[iforgotmyfandom]

Okay. Here’s how it works: Batcest is absolutely horrible.

Stephcass is not batcest, because Steph is not adopted by Bruce, and I like it that way.

If someone comes onto my page with Thorki, I will burn them at the stake.

[stephscassie]

I had no problem with WFA and thought it was a great way to ease new readers into comics, but now we are going to have a lot of people who think Cass and Stephanie are sisters😭😭😭😭 We now have to deal with people calling Stephcass 'incest' and backing it up with WFA panels.

[punkeropercyjackson]

Clarification re the Batfam:

Stephanie is a Robin but only an honorary Batkid

Cass isn't a Robin but a core Batkid

Duke is a Batkid,a Batboy and a Robin

He's also Jason's Robin and Jason's Duke's Robin and the reason he rejoined the Batfam and wanted to be considered a Robin again

Batcest isn't canon and all the 'proof' it is consists of out of context misinfo and straight up lying but Stephcass is a legit supported by the text queer Batship and was canon in one official run and them getting called 'sisters' is lesbophobia on DC's part to erase the countless romantic implications they've done

So if you try to claim there's no girl Robins,no girl Batkids and only four Batboys or to bully wlw DC fans for shipping Cass and Stephanie,you a bitch

[drbatsponge]

Sighs, some cute StephCass art but they tag it “BatCest”. 😑

Steph and Cass aren't siblings bro, so I don't even know why you're trying to bring them into this shit.

[jasontoddsno1simp]

Who wanna bet money if that anti V Day night out included Dick or Tim, the Batstans would've been like...

HOMOS!! HOMOSEXUALS!! LOOK UPON THE DANCING QUEERS!!

But because it's Jason, they're acting as if they've been hate crimed or pretending as though Steph and/or Cass wouldn't have the guts to tell him to scram.
