another instance of jason as robin mimicking bruce but this time it's jason getting over his fear and trying to protect nocturna the way he feels protected by batman. and he truly was there until the end for nocturna (unlike bruce, who didn't get the chance to be there with jason in his final moments)

Let’s talk about Jason Todd in the Al Ghuls and why it bothers me to extreme levels in fandom. There’s a lot of content that insist on Jason raising Damian in the League of Assassins ergo Young Justice Animation or whatever and I want to talk about why I heavily dislike this concept.

Sure, it’s way to create interesting content for Jason and Damian but that’s exactly my issue with it, any valuable relationship that Damian is supposed to have in the League of Assassins get begrudgingly replaced with Jason, they even get as bold as to call him “Jason Al Ghul” which is somewhat disturbing because that’s kind of a form making Jason appropriate Damian’s culture. I also see this is popular amongst Damijay shippers as well and any post that talks of Talia and Jason having a deep relationship sounds extremely shippy to me. Which would make sense because Lost Days; one of the main comics supporting the idea that Jason would have a deep relationship with Jason reduces their dynamic to Jason being Talia’s bicycle.

Then because of this; DC comics is given an inch which makes them want the moon.

I cannot even iterate how deeply ooc this is. There’s multifaceted reasons as to why the Al Ghuls wouldn’t want to do anything like this but this should be ridiculous to anyone with common sense of DC comics.

Even if you insist that you would wish Talia and Jason to have a mother and son type of relationship and it’d be good for him… what’s the point? Did you forget about Nocturna? He already has that with someone.

Also, why is it just Talia that cares about Jason? Is Ra’s Al Ghul a none to the Al Ghul name? I mean it does go to show that originally Ra’s was depicted as feeling responsible for his death and greiving Jason to the point where HE was the one who sought out Jason’s body and brought him back to life, then he STOPPED TALIA from killing him again.

Or is it only because Talia is this sexy older woman figure? Or did you not know this about Ra’s Al Ghul? If you liked the Al Ghuls so much I would hope it’d be graceful of me to assume that you already knew this considering it’s one of his bigger character traits.

Also, overall there’s no need for this sort of concept considering that in the future and even now there are facets of Damian and Jason’s relationship that are soon going to be explored in the comics with the way that they actually are and is far more interesting anyway. He does care deeply, he’s not deeply unfeeling so why does Ra’s Al Ghul never help raise Damian? He’s not sadistic, he would help take care of Damian assuming that from the fact that Damian is the perfect air that he’s been waiting for centuries for.

But never forget that Jason and Damian are not as close as you may want them to be, his first interaction with Jason was him spiraling into madness and shooting him in the chest so…

I love it when fics recreate the custody battle that Jason was involved in Pre-Crisis

Yes, both Batmam and Nocturna wanted to take him in after his parents died (also Dick), so the two had a custody battle.

I like it and I think it's funny.

Because post-crisis it went like this:

Catherine: *died* aw dangit

Willis: *died* aw dangit

Sheila: *betrayed him, HE died to save her. She died anyway* aw dangit

Batman: *Didn't change anything after his death and saved Joker but left him in the rubble* aw dangit

So yeah someone should have a custody battle over Jason. This boy deserves some love

they were locked in fr fr, give Jason his goth mom back

[nikrei]

What if Nocturna came back?

[vodrae]

Jason Todd's iconic moment: accepting Nocturna as his mother when she clearly did shady stuff to get his custody lmao.

DC GIVE ME RED HOOD/NOCTURNA RUN AND MY LIFE IS YOURS

Me, scrolling through Clock App this morning:

A video: Bruce's love interests should all leave him and unionize

Me:

Me, looking at Talia and Natalia in my mind:

Me, pointing at them: g-gay....

What’s your biggest “we could’ve had it all” moment when it comes to DC comics?

Last drawing Imma post for 2023! Decided to go with a Nocturna(Natalie Knight) and Jason mini-comic. Set during the Training Wheels au version of the custody arc during Jason's robin run. In this au the sequence of events start out pretty similarly, though at an earlier time since Jason is 9 here.

He stays with Natalie a bit longer (maybe a few months?) and starts to grow just as fond of her as in canon. Since Dick is still Robin at this point, he's also around and is pissed at Bruce for not handling this better. I wonder if he tries to visit Jason, that would be an interesting scenario. Steph is devastated and yells at Bruce everyday to bring Jason back ('Who will make Steph waffles just the way she likes them now???'). Cass is just thankful for the peace and quiet now, well maybe she misses him just a little.

Jason eventually goes back to Bruce of course but over the years will continue to have encounters with Natalie. Making her a sort of friendly antagonist of sorts. Natalie grows just as fond of Jason too, and will often offer to foster him again, and with Jason's mother issues its a very tempting offer.

Here's some bonus doodle of Natalie and Jason! Looks like Natalie is having more fun than Jason here lol, thought a Fauntroy type sailor suit would fit the situation here.

Here's a colored doodle of them, Jason looks way too innocent here, maybe he's planning a prank?

Well hope you like them!
