the funniest parallel between Tim and Damian that no one ever talks about is how they're both the epitome of "I know a guy" because they keep managing to pick up random friends wherever they go

the nineties gotham gang (bruce, dick, babs, tim, helena, steph, cass, jpv, dinah and zinda on the periphery) is like. the benchmark for complex and interesting character interactions for me because every single person has a different relationship with everyone else, and most of those relationships exist externally to bruce. he’s at the epicenter sure but he isn’t the constant third wheel. dick’s dislike of helena and jpv is incited by bruce but bruce doesn’t have to be present for the relationship to be interesting. tim and babs talk on page and have a rapport. cass and steph’s friendship is messy and complicated.
every relationship in the rebirth era has bruce driving the bus. everyone gets along by trimming off important characterisation to remove interesting friction or the relationships are carbon copies of each other. tim shouldn’t have the same relationship w jason as he does w dick. damian might not be as close with babs as he is with steph. insisting that an absence of complexity is a superior form of storytelling sucks. watching emotionally volatile characters use therapy speak and attend pta meetings isn’t narratively coherent for these characters. i miss when people got to be bitchy and mean

Time to restock the shelves!
In the game, when the Addisons all leave after Spamton "dies", some Darkners go and look in their stalls to steal stuff and then say that all of it looks like cheap junk, and they would have felt ripped off even if they didn't pay. So I figure that Spamton AND the Addisons both just sell garbage and the Addisons were just better at it than him, haha. Meaning they can both go dumpster diving together for new product! Who knows what Yellow even sells anyway...
