anyone ever notice that mainly the only way that bruce and jason mend their relationship, both in canon and fics, is by jason realizing bruce actually feels bad for everything he did or is shouldering too much and it guilt trips jason into trying to fix his relationship with bruce? this isn't all cases but it definitely is the case with most popular fics. bruce apologizes sometimes yeah but it's usually just someone telling jason or him realizing just how heartbroken and depressed bruce is. jason then internalizes out of guilt that he needs to lay off bruce and realize that maybe bruce is trying his best
in fact most relationships jason has with the bats in fanon is like this. jason calls tim replacement until oh nooo the poor baby is so sleepy and running on coffee and awww he's just a little boy i need to stop being a menace, meanwhile tim or alfred never apologized for every nasty thing they said or imagined about jason when he was robin. enemy to caretaker makes me barf. do not make my boy who has been a caretaker to adults since birth take care of this rich boy who's been taken care of extraordinarily since day one. tim having this supposed childhood trauma fans talk about doesn't take away from the fact that he was taken care of as a child
#this is strictly a ramble because i got pissed off reading something and needed to immediately vent#i don't give a single fuck about tim having abusive parents because it's so exaggerated by fanon that it makes me laugh#i wouldn't be angry about it if his fans didn't use it as a way to make jason feel bad and take care of him#it's so telling the way jason's autonomy has been constantly ripped away from him to the point where he's a caretaker even for tim#who doesn't NEED ONE#leave my boy ALONEEE#jason todd#red hood#anti tim drake#anti batfam#anti bruce wayne
