listen. to ME jason puts catherine on a pedestal and she never did anything wrong in her life and the way he talks about willis as an adult makes people assume willis was like. way worse than he actually was but really jason resented him for always being in and out of prison. and he will freely admit hes not being fair about willis imo. he'll be like sure its hypocritical of me sure his options were limited but what it comes down to was this: we needed him and he wasnt there. (and what he wont actually admit out loud is that he blames him for his moms death. but like... u can read between the lines. hes not hiding it either.) but that also doesnt mean he wasnt fucking traumatized by Willis being fucking killed by twoface and bruce not telling him until Jason found out for himself ykwim it doesnt mean he didnt love him it doesn't mean there are no good memories. he just goes to opposite extremes with both parents and he 👏does👏not👏think👏about👏sheila👏haywood👏
#keeping up with the todds#dc#jason is not like... a fair person. okay.#like if willis was still alive itd probably be a different story#but as it is he has no particular incentive to like reframe his childhood trauma#his mom can be a saint if he wants bc fuck it he couldn't have loved her more if she was#and if that makes his dad the devil or whatever. hes dead he dont care#like unless you are actively sitting down and putting jason through a Therapeutic Character Arc and forcing him to acknowledge the nuance#hes just not going to. lol. hes got other things to worryabout#people to kill. chilidogs to eat. etx#etc*#hes booked#im editign the wording on the Og post in case it gets reblogged without my amendment
