I’m sorry, but why do we keep continuing to act as if Jason was out on the streets jacking tires because he felt like it?

Why frame this as Jason just being an angry kid doing angry kid things because he’s parentless (or powerless and lashing out or whatever) when he was stealing the tires off the batmobile so he could feed himself because he was disadvantaged - ie: homeless. He was fucking homeless - ?

I’m probably nitpicking, but I don’t give a shit. Also, the narrative that Bruce is who “made” Jason a good person “against all the odds” is such bullshit.

You put all versions of Jason Todd in a room. Who's coming out crying first, and who's the last one standing

Thinking about that series on TikTok where canon batfamily characters meet their fanon counterparts and I think all canon characters would have a sort of disdain to borderline hate for their fanon versions EXCEPT BRUCE. Canon Bruce would be seething with jealousy

Canon Bruce: so you’re saying… most of them live with you. In Wayne manor. And it’s not burned down every week.

Fanon Bruce: yup! All of them except Jason, he and I don’t get along very well you see… he’s always angry with me so the weekly family dinners are always tense ://

Canon Bruce, through gritted teeth: you see him regularly? Must be nice.

Fanon Bruce: it is! The kids can get a bit rambunctious at times but thankfully their older brother Dick is always there being the good responsible mentally stable older brother he is so there’s not much damage except the broken vase or two

Canon Bruce, glaring daggers: is that so.

Fanon Bruce: there’s also Tim, he can’t get enough of his coffee, sometimes I have to replace it with decaf just to get him to sleep!

Canon Bruce, who has found Tim napping in places he didn’t think was humanely possible to sleep in: hnn

steph: what are you doing?

jason: just practicing

steph: why are you already planning your hypothetical divorce?

jason: i don't know. i'm getting old, i think i'm having a mid-life crisis

steph: you don't even have a girlfriend

jason: hypothetically divorce me

steph: okay, then i'm hypothetically taking half your assets

jason: well, you didn't sign the hypothetical prenup

jason, to duke: it's called a prenup, right?

duke: yeah, it's a prenup, and you DID hypothetically sign one

steph: who the fuck is this guy?

duke: i'm his hypothetical lawyer in this divorce case

steph: well, then, i'm taking the hypothetical kids

steph, to tim: right? we can get those, right?

tim: yes, we can definitely get the hypothetical kids, don't worry about it

jason: who the fuck is this hypothetical fucking idiot? a hella fucking nerd idiot

tim: wow, that is a lot of hypothetical insults. i need to keep these on for continuity because i look like the other lawyer

steph: this is MY hypothetical lawyer, and we have been hypothetically sleeping with each other

jason: how could you hypothetically do this to me?!

steph: because you hypothetically are an alcoholic!

Jason and Tim vs the Robbers.

When you think about it the timeline in WFA doesn’t make any fucking sense. Unless - now that I think about it - WFA isn’t technically a sanitized version of post-crisis canon, but nu52 canon (which doesn’t fully uncomplicate things but would make a bit more sense). Because - and hear me out for real - if Jason (at least in season one) was 19 years old but already going under the Red Hood moniker and wearing a “bat symbol” then that means (and I’m specifically talking about Jason but the timeline stuff gets even more fucked up when you factor in Duke and other “newer” Bats) that the entirety of B:UTRH happens in one year. Hell, probably less than that.

Not only that either, but from 18 to 19 he would’ve had to have found and then formed the Outlaws (both versions considering his relationships with Roy, Artemis, & Bizz), reconciled with Bruce, met a ten year old Damian way earlier than in the comics, met Duke way earlier than in the comics (+Duke’s already Signal and has powers so a lot of story beats for him would’ve had to happen in a laughably short amount of time as well), and established himself as a hero under Batman to Gotham and her citizens to the extent that he’s automatically recognized as such.

Now, I don’t like to think about the WFA timeline too much for this exact reason, but I am nothing if not the exact type of person that would take the time out to do just that so whatever. Long story short the WFA timeline gives me a headache because it’s clearly not meant to be thought about and dissected as much as I’m dissecting it but I can’t help myself.

The new 52 angle makes sense for Jason’s personality too, not fully because he’s being sanitized in WFA (like how characters are sanitized in stuff like Justice League: Action or the Batman: Unlimited animations), but way closer a personality match than if WFA!Jason was based directly off post-crisis Jason. Yeah, there’s just no other way.

That would also explain why Cass’s uniform is the way it is in WFA. (Listen, the more I write this the more I realize that I’m probably not the first person to come to this realization, but just let me figure things out at my own speed, OK?)

Question: Is Jason 19 the entire time in the new 52 continuity? Edit: I checked and the answer is yes, but also no? Like, he ages, but the ages are kinda wonky because nu52!Jason dies at 16, but is only gone for (I think) two years instead of five like in post-crisis, but they fit a lot of story and development into those two years that Jason’s “dead” and honing his craft or whatever.

Duke: Dick looks like the type of guy to wiggle his fingers and say "don't mind if I do" when he sees a box of donuts.

Dick: No actually, this is a Jason thing. He does that.

Dick: He, uh, he would have not wanted me to tell you that.

Steph: Please? Dad?

Bruce: I'm not your dad!

Steph: Well you're everybody else's dad, I thought it might work!
