#i just want to go in the tags and not run into constant shipping rivalry drama

I'm so starving for wholesome Swatchton content ššš As much as I enjoy the edgier lore-heavy stuff, I'll see cuter stuff and I'm immediately just š¤²š¤²š¤² /pos
I need it too...
#Jay Talks#feelings on it all have been complicated#it's still a fixation so I get a bit moody about people having certain Hot Takes on it#and when it's all I ever find in the tags everywhere no wonder I get desperate for content š#i just want to go in the tags and not run into constant shipping rivalry drama#i am a big lore enjoyer but at some point I got so paranoid over enjoying the more wholesome side of the ship#and that people wouldn't take me seriously unless I was a big lore historian about it all#don't get me wrong#the swatchton lore implications still make me insane#but maybe I just want to enjoy drawing simpler cuter stuff without being paranoid that it's considered Inferior#or some form of mischaracterization as if exploring how these characters would be in certain contexts isn't the fun part of it#i don't have the most biblically accurate takes I know#i just miss when I could enjoy it more instead of being paranoid all the time...

i have some jason opinions (jopinions) :
ā¢ I donāt think he has to stick to guns, when i say i hate the crowbars it doesnt mean i necessarily need him to reach for guns only - what were all the teachers for, if heās only ever using guns? Lame.
ā¢ all of his ships suck. Romantic relationship are not wanted, unless the writers actually put some energy into it.
ā¢ i donāt like the t-shirt or sleeveless uniforms.
ā¢ i hate the bad boy persona weāve had to deal with since l*bdell.
ā¢ i find the autopsy scar hc stupid. Same thing with having bruce call him jaylad (itās not inherently bad, the fics that utilize the nickname follow some themes and characterizations that irk me tho)
ā¢ i hate the forced rivalry between him and dick. i think them hating each other is entertaining, i just hate the rivalry/competitive direction some ppl take their relationship in. Seems stupid if you consider their age gap.
ā¢ jason wasnāt timās robin. In fact tim didnāt like him like that. And for the love of god let go of the titan tower auās.
ā¢ Dick had issues with bruce, not with jason - he didnāt treat him badly and while we didnāt see much of them (and itās obvious dick is closer to damian/tim) i hate the assumption that they hated each other before utrh. Find peace within yourself and let go of the bad sibling dick grayson tag.
ā¢ he knows what heās doing.
ā¢ the hc that the lazarus pit gave him a growth spurt is ass.
ā¢ he had his angry moments, especially towards the end of his robin run but anger wasnāt his defining trait. In comparison to dick, tim or damian (with steph having it even worse) he was robin for a weekend - he didnāt have any traits that stuck out negatively. He was a regular child, he didnāt rebel any more against B than any other of the robins. The only reason he died is bc of the narrative. If starlin had been writing anyone else, they wouldāve been 6ft under instead. No crazy recklessness, no brash or aggressive personality. If DC wanted him to fill a specific role, they couldāve simply changed the way the characters spoke of him post DITF. Instead of having them make him out to be dangerous and uncontrollable for all of his time with B, they couldāve specified what caused his anger and that it was only in his later robin years. By doing that, we could finally move on from the constant classist motives theyāve been showing since the 80s. And i personally believe the way characters speak of him (now and back when he was still dead) made them all look very shitty. I would never say bruce was to blame for his death but if i were to follow the badmouthing and undermining of his skills iād think differently.
