#right when Jay became robin

[fantasticgothicpeachsludge]

Hello random Tumblr user you have enthralled Is back with art For your Dc x fnaf au! (Excuse the poor quality my computer has stopped working..) But just hear me out Pre Scoop Michael use a much simpler costume. Since he didn't have Henry to build him a suit. All he had with his old foxy mask in a bat!

He looks like he bites people and I mean that in the best ways possible

[starrrlights]

Based on something in my notes app (copy and pasted too but edited to make sense) maybe oc Jay? Idk

you and Jason had became friends when you were on the streets, helping each other when needed and also just being there for each other. When he became robin, with #BruceWayneBenifits, he was able to help you more. Often letting you have sleepovers at the manor and hanging out. You both grow to have feeling for each other, and you were planning on telling him on his birthday or sum, but he died. So you never find out if he felt the same way or not (he does)

Time skip (5? Possibly 6 even?) Years later when Jason comes back alive and is less vengeful of his death, Jason frequently goes to old book stores to find good books to read. He goes to one frequently and the vibe felt off that day.

He thinks there might be a threat and keeps a good eye on everything. While browsing; surprise, surprise, you are there. Standing somewhat next to him. You obviously don't recognize him right away or at all from how different he looks. You're trying to find a specific book that a friend had recommended and just so happen to get closer to Jason little by little. (You have social anxiety)

You don't want to get to close to this person because of personal space and well, he's huge. Handsome looking, but huge, and a lot of scars. Which was kinda a hot look on him. You steal a few glances at him, hoping he wouldn't notice.

Jason does notice, since the Pit heightened his senses. (I think? I read it from somewhere that it did 🤷‍♀️) He finally looks over at you, expecting you to just be a normal Gothamite who is just scared of his size; when he freezes for a second. Recognizing the your hair and style almost immediately. He thinks he's hallucinating. There no way it was you.

You notice that he was looking at you and you almost shy at his gaze. Mumbling a sorry and returning your gaze to the books in front of you, but knowing that the book you're looking for is probably right in front of the man.

Jason panics a lot in the inside. Do you recognize him? Do you hate him? Are you afraid of him? He's you jaybird, why you'd you be afraid?

You mentally punch yourself and raised your voice a bit, taking a breath.

U: "I think that book I'm looking for is by you. Can I look?"

Oh my god, he's going to say no-

J: "Sure, that's fine."

God, if you could faint, you would. Not only looks handsome, but sounds handsome.

Jason on the other hand let's put a mental and physical sigh of relief, now thinking that you probably don't even recognize him. It saddens him a little at that thought but it was better, way better than having you scared of him.

He scoots over and you scoot closer, looking over more books until your predictions were right and the book you were looking for was right by where he was standing. You mutter a thank you and move so he can continue looking in the spot he was in.

He doesn't even register that you were moving away because he was so enchanted by you. you had grown up and matured. And damn did you look good. A lot better than he did in his opinion.

J: "I-uh, have me met before?"

Jason asked. 'Great going, idiot. All the romance novels you've read and that's what you come up with?' He thinks to himself.

U: "..I don't think so? What's your name?"

He's sweating bullets now. What does he say? Does he sat jason or use a fake name?

"Jason"

You've met many Jason's so you don't think about it. But there seems to be a familiar aura to him. But you can't put a finger on it. It's going to eat you up later but you put the thought to the side for now. Out of habit you stuck your hand out in a polite way.

"(Name)"

Jason almost said "I know" but bite his tongue and nodded, reaching out to shake you hand. Jesus, you hand fit so well with his. So warm and welcoming.

you and Jason talk for a bit more, it was awkward but it worked. You ended up switching numbers for "book recommendations". But you both were giggling like school girl in the inside because of it.

Over several months, you got to know Jason. And he reminded you a lot of Jason, your dead friend and crush. It saddened you a bit but you decided to not dwell on the past so much. You'll just visit his grave soon, again.

It wasn't long before Dick encouraged Jason to ask you on a date. Well, going out for coffee/fav drink bev and talk about books. You agreed and you did the date.

You had a great time. It was slightly awkward but it was just like all the other hang outs, but more special.

Jason asks you what your life is like because he wants to know what your life has been like since he was gone. He had asked before during those mothes about resent stuff, but he wanted to know more, like high-school years and such.

Boring, you said. Mostly the same thing over and over again. You told some funny stories and it made Jason want to genuinely smile. He makes up a few things to not have to talk about the Pit or dying. Or being Red Hood.

You go on a few more dates and finally, he takes you on a fancy one. (Using Bruce's card ofc)

You initially declined going on a fancy date, not really having the money or outfits for it but jason insisted and said he'd had one of his friends to go with for shopping if you needed it. (Steph or Cass idk, some fem friend he has.)

You ended up going shopping with his friend and got a nice dress.

You go on the fancy date and had a great time as always, a bit panic on the bill but jason pays for it all. He's a true gentleman for you and only you.

At this point, your bf and gf

I think jason would wait for about a year, you make sure things are secured and there is a lot of trust in the friendship/relationship before dropping hints that he is your not-so-dead best friend. He just wants you to know that he is back :(

One night, trying to sleep, it clicks for you. You immediately go to his apartment and knock on the door. He thanks whoever runs his life for the great full night of not patrolling that night and answers the door. You have tears going down your face and look puffy. He panics and asks if you're alright. You look at him with a confused but surprised lookin your face

U: "Jason Todd? ... Jaybird?"

He also has a look of shock on his face, happy that you finally got it but also scared of your reaction.

J: "... ... yeah. It's me."

U: "Oh my god..."

You stare at each other for about a solid minute and you break down, crying, hands to your face. He panics more and freezes, not knowing if they were good or bad tears. You reached out and hugged him tight. Feeling his out grown and bigger frame in your arms. You finally have your best friend back. And your dating him. You love him. And you know he loves you. All of your dreams have finally come true. Obv not financial ones but wvr.

It ends up with you cuddling jason on his bed or sum. idk.

Kinda long ngl, I have a good grasp of what his character is like but I may have a few things wrong. Pls tell me if something is ooc, I'd probably fix it or sum 🫶🏻😭

[brucewaynehater101]

Breaking in because some months ago you posted an AU idea where Dick kills Batman before Damian arrives but imagine if Dick realized that Batman got so bad a child resorted to being brutalized because he thinks he's needed to fix him

So then Dick ends up killing Batman BEFORE Jason ever arrives, and disposes of the body in such a way, that trying to ressurect Bruce w/ Lazarus waters is pointless

There's two three four ways we can do this

a. Jason only learns of Batman dying after coming back to Gotham and before meeting the Batclan

b. Jason learns Batman died while still with the League, something that throws him, Thalia, Ra's, and whoever else for a loop

c. Jason doesn't even know Bruce is dead after getting to Gotham, and it takes time until he learns Dick is Batman

d. Jason and the League only knows of Batman being replaced or missing himself, and only later learn he's been found or announced dead

When the newest Red Hood tries to pull shit? Dick (the new Batman) has none of it as he is extrq protective of his Robins (Tim and Stephanie) after Jason died and Tim was abused

Now what to do w/ Bruce and Wayne Enterprises? I mean, Dick w/ Barbara and Tim's help can become the new patriarch and owner/CEO but there's also the fact that tjey need to navitage the chaos that is either Brucie Wayne dying or going missing qnd being qnnounced deqd unsuspiciously

There's also the idea that Dick (+any accomplices) would have to navigate relations with the Justice League whilst hiding his murder, and Gotham has to deal w/ the changes a new Batman introduces

Suddenly Batman is putting the wellbeing of the people, especially his kids, over justice and his ideals, and whether or not anybody suspects or knows this new Batman "took care" of the old one leaves a lot of potential for plotlines

Also Cassandra, if she still joins the Bats, has to grapple with the patriarch being a killer because the previous patriarch was an abuser

Gosh how will this affect Damian and how he's raised? How will the LOA respond to Bruce's death?

Oh yeah Jason, I can't imagine Dick would leave Joker alive either after what happened to Jason, especially if there was a Joker Junior incident

It's gonna be a mindfuck for he, he needs wanted for his father to prove himself as still being his dad, for Bruce to choose him over "The Right Thing To Do" even if Jason became something Batman would hate

Except Jason doesn't even get the closure of his father proving himself a failure of a father, because Bruce already failed as a father to Dick to such a degree that his reward was death

Jason doesn't know who his father is or would have beenanymore, just that Dick is to Tim, Stephanie and so on what Jay dad wasn't as he was in the League, training for an encounter that would never come

Ooh! But let's add on more, shall we?

I don't remember the og post you're referencing, but let's be mean to Dick :)

I like the many many possibilities for Jason you've listed out, but imma get specific on how Dick killed Bruce.

To be cruel, let it be an accident.

For the exact stage, perhaps the JJ incident still happened, but after Tim was Robin. Dick didn't find out about it because Bruce never informed him, and Dick was busy with Bludhaven and the Titans (it was another unfortunate timing for Dick).

About a year or so after the event, Tim is doing much better. He's been on the field for a bit and doesn't relapse as much (either into thinking he's JJ, Joker's his dad, or the laughing spells).

Joker captures Tim again and calls him "Junior." Dick has never seen Tim react the way he did to that name.

They have history. A bad one.

Bruce isn't surprised.

Bruce hid this from Dick.

The young adult has to take several breaths, but he holds his reservations. Maybe Bruce was respecting Tim's boundaries (yeah fucking right).

Fighting happens ya da ya da and Dick learns what Joker did to Tim.

He's fucking enraged. Joker has touched another sibling of his.

Then, the Joker and Tim are in a precarious position. Dick rushes to save Tim and barely manages to get him in time.

When Dick looks up, the Joker is perfectly fine. Nightwing feels his blood start to boil.

His baby brother almost slipped out of his grasp when he rushed as fast as he could to save him. Dick moved, without hesitation, to save Tim.

Batman would have had to move, without hesitation, to save Joker over saving Robin.

Batman put Joker's safety over Robin's.

The flip is instantaneous.

Nightwing starts pummeling the shit out of both Joker and Batman. Due to the element of surprise, Dick had the upper hand. He gets broken ribs and a concussion for his troubles, but Batman is beneath his fist taking the beating Nightwing is dealing out.

He never realizes Bruce has stopped breathing until he feels a hand on his elbow.

Tim's expression is grim as he focuses on Dick. The teen is heavily dissociating as he takes in the scene.

Tim's lips, when he glances down at Batman, start to tremble. He presses them together to try to keep a calm facade.

The teen closes his eyes, breathes in, breathes out, nods to himself, and then opens them.

Bruce is dead. Joker is dead.

They've got work to do.

~~~

In this AU, Steph becomes Robin during Tim's recovery stage from JJ and after this incident. Tim takes a step back after helping Dick dismantle and hide Batman's body to consolidate Dick's position as Wayne heir, majority shareholder, and Batman. He works with Babs to aid Dick in these various transitions.

Lucius is the acting CEO, which takes a huge load off of Dick's shoulders.

Dick is obviously not doing fine about accidentally murdering his dad. At least he killed Joker too, though.

Tim's not doing great either, but it's fine. He eventually steps back into the cape. Steph and him like to play pranks on Gotham. They both vehemently deny that there's two Robins running around at the same time.

I don't think Alfred would stick around after they murdered and covered up the murder of Bruce :/ I wish he would, but maybe he takes a nice retirement in England.

Babs, Tim, and Dick are good at covering their tracks. There's rumors that the new Batman killed the old one, but there's also rumors that he eats people.

The LoA don't know who killed Bruce, but they know he's dead. Tim and Dick still grieve him (feelings are fun like that), so they aren't on the suspect list.

Red Hood shows up demanding answers.

Batman (Dick) confirms that he *will* put his family first. Always.

[batsimsposts]

Ok yall, i've seen a lot of misinformation on who was the first *insert superhero here* so here are some common superheroes who passed on their mantle and in what order each character was this hero. This post is meant to be informative.

This post has Batgirl, Robin, Flamebird, and Flash.

BATGIRL

- Bette Kane was Batgirl for seven years (1961-1967) and she was THE original batgirl. (Yup! Barbara was not the first!)

- Barbara Gordon was the most iconic Batgirl and most depictions of Batgirl in animation/live action are her. She was Batgirl from 1967-1988. (There are most recent depictions of her as batgirl but she was officially retired by DC editorial in 1988)

- Helena Bertinelli was Batgirl during the No Man's Land arc which ran through most of 1999. It happened for less than one year so if you don't want to count her that's fine. This list is more for educational purposes.

- Cassandra Cain was Batgirl right after Helena Bertinelli near the end of No Man's Land in 1999. She stopped being Batgirl in 2009 and came back in late 2010 with her new alias Black Bat.

- Stephanie Brown was Batgirl from 2009 to 2011 when DC launched the New52 timeline where she was reverted back to Spoiler.

- Tiffany Fox was Batgirl in 2014 during the league of Batgirls arc.

ROBIN

- Dick Grayson was the original Robin, his first appearance was in 1940 and his last appearance as Robin was in 1984, he was Robin for 44 years.

- Lance Bruner was Robin during a 1969 run of The Brave And The Bold. He died as Robin.

- Jason Todd his first appearance as Robin was in 1983 and he officially took over the Robin mantle in 1984. He died in 1988, being Robin for only four years.

- Carrie Kelley was Robin in 1986 during a Batman comic run. She later adopted the Catgirl mantle. (Alternate universe)

- Tim Drake became Robin after Jason died, his first appearance was in 1989. He became Red Robin in 2009 but got put back into the Robin mantle in 2019, he currently fills in as Robin when Damian is out of town.

- Stephanie Brown was Robin for three months (71 days) in 2004. She was only in a few issues and got nerfed like right after.

- Damian Wayne has been Robin since 2009, and is currently holding the Robin Mantle.

FLAMEBIRD

- Jimmy Olsen was Flamebird Pre-crisis

- Bette Kane was Flamebird post-crisis

- Ak-Var was Flamebird for a little bit

- a Kryptonian hero was also called Flamebird

- Kara Zor-El was Flamebird for a tiny bit

- Lois Lane used the Flamebird alias once

(aka Bette Kane was the one to use the Flamebird alias the most but the alias itself is such a small role that i cant even tell you dates or anything...)

THE FLASH

- Jay Garrick is the original Flash, his first appearance was in 1940. (Timelines are always messed up when referring to Flash so I'm only gonna out their first appearance.)

- Barry Allen was Flash after Jay Garrick, his first appearance was in 1956

- Wally West was originally Kid Flash, but became The Flash after some timeline shenanigans with Barry. His first appearance was in 1960

- Ivana Christina Molotova was experimented on and gained speed powers. She was Lady Flash for a while (1987) but changed her alias shortly before her death.

- John Fox is a Flash from the future (27th century) that went back in time to ask Jay Garrick for help. His appearance was in 1990

- Jesse Quick was The Flash after Wally West was integrated with the speed force. She had the powers of Liberty Belle as well as a connection to the speed force. Her first appearance was in 1992

- Bart Allen was first Impulse and then Kid Flash, he became The Flash after Wally West's disappearance. His first appearance was 1994 (as Impulse)

- Avery Ho became The Flash during DC's Rebirth era. She joined the Justice League Of China and was one of the best Flashes with Bart Allen and Wally West. Her first appearance was in 2016.

This is all for now, let me know if theres a superhero alias you want me to do <3

A/N: I do not own dc booho

"Hey, Jay," she asked in a totally calm totally cool manner the next morning, completely numb thanks to the nice little combo she'd whipped up. Not floating or un-present but not in pain, even where the arm of the couch was digging into her side as Jason squished into her, laying fully on top of her.

"Yes, my beloved?"

"Don't make me take away your books you little dork. I was just wondering if your family knows about you...you know, not being dead?"

"Uh, yeah, why?"

"Just if I happened to run into them I wouldn't wanna be like 'oh I'm dating Jason' and they'd be all 'wtf is wrong with this chick, he's dead' you know."

"I guess. Alex," he said grabbing her hand and pulling it to his mouth," I'm gonna introduce you, I'm not ashamed of you or whatever the hell else your mind is trying to say. My family is...overwhelming for most and I didn't want to scare you off."

"I get it dude, and since I just recently placed you as Robin you would have had to hire a family, or spill you deepest secrets to me. Lucky for you, I am the most understanding woman on the planet."

"I'd argue, but you're right. I'll text Alfred, the leader of the gang, and see when we can come for dinner. Be warned though, it could be tonight, they've been trying to get me to come home for a while now."

It was in fact that night. Alex scurried around for a clean pair of jeans, then after a glance in the mirror at her too large reflection she ripped them off and tossed them to the floor. A dress? No, that one has a tear. This skirt? No, it's too short. Jean short, they're clean but who the fuck wear jeans shorts to a mansion. Business slacks, no that says trying too hard. Ah ha, a superman t-shirt, and black leggings, then top it off with one of Jason's zip up hoodies.

"Is that what you're wearing," he asked with a laugh as he came into the room. In fact the laugh became a full blown fit and he doubled over nearly to the ground clutching his stomach and wheezing. With each second she got more and more self-conscious. Of course she couldn't wear what was basically pajamas to a fancy place, what was wrong with her. With a sigh she took off her boots and slid out of the leggings and switched them for her jeans, that she hated but whatever. Searching in vain for something that wasn't a graphic tee, or a business blouse she was half way through her closet when Jason recovered enough to notice what she was doing.

"No, put it back on, it's great, doll, I wasn't laughing at you, I was laughing with you."

"I wasn't laughing," she said without emotion.

"Hey, come 'er." Much to her wiggling protest he pulled her tight against him and placed several loud kisses along her scalp.

"Everyone else will be in pj's I solemnly swear, in fact I was just about to change into my matching flannel set, someone amazing bought it for me, but I can't remember who," he said tapping his chin with mock thought.

"Really?"

"Cross my heart," he said, though his fingers were crossed behind his back.

"Ok," she conceded trying to get free. He held on for another minute before spinning her out away from himself and winking when she fell back onto the bed. Matching pj's in hand he headed to the bathroom, not for privacy but to send an urgant group chat explicity stating lounge clothes were to be worn.

I love JAYSTEPH, hear me out! 🙌:

The Robin who died by the fans and the Robin that resurrected by the fans... Is so poetic yet some people is against it, but I just fell in love with them and I want to support this ship after I was finally able to let go Timsteph and I know theres people who will be Timsteph forever and others that strongly dislike Jaysteph but I think there's more people that are just simply unconvinced so I have nothing to lose if I play business woman and try to sell this potential romance to them, it deserves a chance! Let's see the arguments against it that didn't convince me first:

Steph becoming Barbara 2.0... (what a bat-list she had: Dick, Jason, Tim in a video game and fucking Batman 💀 got her pregnant once, but I didn't disliked it when she was briefly with Luke fox) But the only options for Steph that are bat family members aside Tim are Cassandra and Jason because... Dick, Damian, Duke, Luke, Kate, Barbara 😂? Eh NOPE. And even if Barbara and Jason had a thing once it was doomed from the beginning, Babs and Jay only had in common being Joker victims and Babs follows 100% Batman's ideals (while Steph mindset allows her to understand better Jason's point). Also I think Jason idealized her, it felt like they weren't on the same "level"(Timsteph has the same problem, Steph used to kinda idealize Tim too),but with JaySteph feels different, I think they would see each other as equals, the vibes I get are that they could relate to each other better. Not to mention that if they start a relationship now it won't be the same as another Robin-Batgirl attempt, remember that when it was with Babs it was described as a long term crush he had on her (like Dick) while with Steph not only she was also a Robin (that went through a similar struggle as him), first she was Spoiler, her own independent vigilante persona (with a background Jason could totally relate with) that was 100% unrelated to Batman before she even became a Batgirl (a heroine that was independent from Batman but was inspired on him unlike The Spoiler) and currently she uses both Spoiler and Batgirl titles, in anycase this would be another Robin-Batgirl situation if it was with Damian, because Steph was Damian's Batgirl (they even reminded Dick his olds days with Babs) but he was 10 and she was 18 so obviously NOPE. The relationship would start NOW as their current selves by realizing mutually how much they understand each other better than anyone, they aren't joined by the Joker they would be drawn because of their personalities and the struggles they had with their own families and the rejection they suffered from the BAT-family (at different times but the struggle is the same). This is something neither Tim or Babs can fully understand.

They're like "siblings". Ha! NOPE. Strongly disagree. They aren't related biologically or legally and Steph isn't even in Bruce care like Duke, she is basically... " Your kid's best friend who eats your fridge food" and with the issue about her dating Tim's brother, some people who pulls the sibling card are completely fine with Steph being with Cassandra... So dating Tim's brother is not ok but is ok to date his sister? 🤨 And bringing back the first argument the only ones I see as Steph's 100% sibling figures are: Barbara who is the big sister figure and acts like one and Damian who is indisputably his annoying little brother but why is Jason seen as her brother? Because of the banter? That doesn't immediately make you a sibling, you know friends to lovers and rivals to lovers and enemies to lovers also have banter right?

Their respective most popular ships in the past: for Tim I already made a post about it and Artemis... I totally understand Jason 🥵😍, between her and Ravager I prefer her because Rose seems to be more like a very good friend with very sexy benefits but with Artemis there's more emotional connection... But my issue with her is the immortality factor (i mean the fact that she won't die of old age, she being hundreds of years old I don't care) and that Artemis deep down has too much "independent" Vibes, I mean that I don't see her wanting the long term relationship, she can't have it anyway because of her immortality. And there was the problem that it was perceived as another Amazon-bat attempt in a "trinity"(with bizarro) and as much as some people liked wonderbat (not me, it was a bit awkward) in the end it doesn't work well (look at Damian and WonderGirl Cassie in DCeased).

Some sort of fantasy about an "age gap", this one is ridiculous. Some people believe that Jason is super old for Stephanie... Well in that case Stephanie was way super old for Tim too 🙄, I'll just get to the point: Jason died at 15 and only lasted dead 6 months, Tim became Robin at 13 and Stephanie is one year older than Tim, they met when he was 14 and she was 15 so... Do the math, is being one year older than her TOO OLD??🤡 one year and half maybe? If we count the 6 month dead. I mean I know he sometimes looks older because of the way they draw him, like a huge muscle chunk and sometimes he has a beard (ajj I hate beards). And yes, I know they changed their ages currently but at much he is only TWO years older than her and she is over 18 or 19 so... Like I said the age gap argument is a fairy tale.

"They never or barely interacted before", just what kind of argument is this?🤡Do you want Steph to only be attached forever to the Batgirls and Tim or just be alone? Jason has been more allowed than her to interact with other people, how unfair but the point is... they'll have to start someday don't they!? Or just because they barely interacted in the past it means they can't interact more in the future? Is really that unbelievable that they could start hanging out more often and bonding? Is that weird? Have you never suddenly talked with someone you know but you barely interacted before and realized you had more in common with them than you thought? That's something extremely normal to happen! I don't see how it would be out of place with Jason and Steph 🤷‍♀️.

Now let's see how this ship started and it's potential:

The ship existed before they actually met, people already shipped the possibility: the two failed dead Robins and (yes I'm counting Steph as dead because her dead was meant to be permanent), but they never met before the new 52 reboot and when it actually happened... It was a classic not very relevant banter, the second time he was impressed with her with how she dealt with the Scarecrow and after that there was barely interaction... But then we got these exactly interactions that made me ship them very hard, passionately and strongly in Task Force Z:

ok, I'm an anime consumer, this kind of tiny details affect me very seriously, when you are used to see relationships in comics where the couple simply jump to sexy time right away and suck face hard and fall in love or feel attracted instantly we forget about the little things that makes us blush with yearning... you know, the moment something changes in how you see someone even if you still didn't noticed it and you just feel funny and don't know why. In this comic panels the relationship is not romantic and hasn't even begin being romantic, they aren't in love or are feeling attraction yet and that still remains to be seen but what is happening here is a change, is a start! Is the beginning and they way he reacts to her really get me fangirl squealing LOOK AT HIS FACE!!! Specially when she touches his wounded cheek... You can't convince me that this guy isn't touch starved and not so used to receive affectionate touching 😭, suddenly after a big beating he received Kindness from someone unexpected but that we all know... relates to him better than anyone in the bat-family but the best part is that she isn't there to just pamper him a little she just decided to have a nicer approach to him, she gave him coffee, she treated his face wound and she gave him a talk of tough love, she doesn't take his side 100% but she let's him know she is still a friend and then the last pages of the issue:

She was the only one who wanted to say goodbye because once again she understands him and because of that she is more tolerant and forgiving towards his actions than the others while still not being dumb and knowing he still is up to trouble and again... The little touches always get me, the way she caresses his hand with the plane ticket gets me screaming more than their hug 😭😭😭 ah this is also their first hug! And I'm kinda pissed because the height is WRONG! Jason is taller than her! It shouldn't look like she is hugging Tim😒.

All right now my official points about why I love this potential relationship:

This is very important, this needs to be a SLOW BURN, I know jaystephers, I know you want kisses and hot moments but NOPE, that can't happen anytime soon, first we need a lot of little details and little touches, emotional conversations that don't end in kissing but in hugging, a lot of little meaningful looks and gestures, we need the rest of the fans that are not convinced, to get used to see them together interacting but not specifically obviously romantically, it has to be wholesome but we can't jump and shove the ship down people's throats, that's a turn off. Keep in mind that usually DC writers write love like a switch on and off, look at what they did with Nightwing! Just how many true loves has he had? A lot of bullcrap text about how much he is in love and obsessed with every new girl and not to mention Tim (let's hope he sticks to his NPC cardboard walking bisexuality proof boyfriend and stops fooling around with Steph, our girl deserves better). A new love that has hit hard has to be believable, the potential with their personalities gives for a lot to work with: Jason is a tough bad moody broody boy who is actually very emotional and sensitive and so affection starved he fell into Damian trap when he hugged him, Jason just melted into the hug (before he got hit with a taser, Damian you little shit...) and thats where Stephanie comes, Steph is someone completely open, eager, sweet, foward and unapologetic with her affections and here Mister pride and prejudice lover Jason has a romantic side. Jaystephers I'm serious, this can't be rushed, absolutely not and I'm being insistent because I came from reading an insane amount of jaysteph fanfics that almost all of them end up being porn with plot, I mean really good plot and also very skilled written porn... but still! "BONK" 🔨 go to horny jail! That can't happen in the comics 😂😂. With a slow burn unconvinced people will have enough time to process just how good is this ship. Simply it has to become a Romantic friendship before a potential romance and then an actual romance.

They have come a long way on their personalities, currently they aren't the same as they were before so if they started now it wouldn't be like the chaotic kind of toxic mess that it was Timsteph, because at that time they were insecure and irrational teenagers, honestly the writers messed them up a lot and I guess there's still a risk a new writer will fuck them up too but I'd like to think that if some writer goes for it they really have to like this ship and will try not to make it a complete toxic or cringy or a messed up disaster, if a writer chooses to do it I want to think is because they saw how much in common they have, how much their personalities are compatible, how good they would work together and how much they can relate to each other. What I mean is that there is a background where they can start even though they were never that close before and is all starting now, there is a lot of material to work! They don't have to make up things they only have to let it flow naturally, just put them together in a room and let them interact. I mean, right now he is a grumpy bad boy and Steph is a perky ballbuster, let's see how that goes.

The potential Romanticism of this couple is something really underrated, the two failures as Robins that walked on the same path, they own to have yet the "talk" About their respectives deaths and the subject about how Steph failed as a Robin because of being a reminder of Jason, they should talk about had him not died he would have been the one meeting her instead of Tim and wonder how things would have been then... They should team up more often and strengthen their bond, the need to build a romantic friendship, a dynamic that could drive us crazy and by the time they start flirting is going to be the BEST!! Just remember how Steph flirts shamelessly on duty 🤭🤭 but with Tim it was a bit boring, he always turns her down because he is such a good serious soldier 😑 and gets mad but with Jason? Unless he is specifically grumpy about something he would totally flirt back and totally flirt in front of villains while fighting until the villains can't take it anymore and just ask to be knocked out 😂😂😂 and also the chance to piss off Tim is just too good, I need to see it 😂😂😂. I mean, one I love about most Jaysteph fanfics is that Tim is always fucking pissed and grossed out about Jason dating Steph but normally is never about jealousy he is just overprotective (but casually they also add a jealous Damian who can't help but criticize Steph's taste in men 😂😂, I think is canon that he had a bit of a platonic crush on her when they met).

They have a lot of similarities but they aren't exactly the same, the things they have in common actually was used as an argument against it saying that just like with Babs he only had in common being a joker's victim, people thinks "dying" Is the only thing he has in common with Steph and they are very wrong: They both are members of Gotham's lowest class, both had drug addict mothers and criminal fathers, also Jason's real mom betrayed him and sold him out to the Joker and Stephanie's dad orchestrated a kidnapping of her and in the new 52 he kidnapped her and her killed her (even if he didn't meant to) and had to get revived by Lazarus pit goo, the way they died was also caused by the same stubborn need of proving themselves to Batman, doing something extremely reckless, also I have to point out that Steph has been compared to Dick, Barbara, Tim and Jason but it was her similarities with Jason what doomed her before DC decided to revive her, the writers did a messed up job with the principal reasons Batman rejected her so adamantly at some point but the principal one was that she reminded him of Jason and ironically he trying to prevent her from getting the same fate was what drove her to act and ending up like Jason and they both were officially the first black sheeps of the bat-family. But even with all that their personalities are both opposites and complimentary, I mean that despite having a similar trauma, when Steph came "back from the death" (The first "death") she became more positive and hopeful than before, she used to be more cynical and angry and unlike Jason whose resurrection was just as traumatic as his death and was not in his right mind, Steph returned to Gotham to once again try to belong and be a proper vigilante, she wanted to keep trying and do the right thing and fight to be accepted unlike Jason who at first he only wanted revenge. Steph can understand where he is coming from and be more indulgent to him than the rest of the family but at the same time she would stop him from going too far, she has the bravery to fight off trauma like the fear toxin and the will to never give up, so I see how she would never give up on Jason.

And don't you dare give me crap about this ship being absurd or something because this is not even the most out of the blue couple DC has ever done! I already mentioned Tim and Barbara🤬, Batman and Barbara💀 but also Raven and Damian 😒, Damian and wonder girl Cassie 😐Batman and wonder woman😒, Superman and wonder woman😐, green lantern Jonh and hawkegirl🥰, Superboy and miss martian😍, Lego Batman and Lego Barbara🤪, Martian Manhunter and Rose Wilson😶, beast boy and Rose Wilson🤯 (married and with a daughter), Jason and fucking Taliah (damians mother) had sex with him 💀(I hope he had at least 18) Dick and Helena Wayne 💀, Dick and Zatanna😑, Batman and Zatanna🙄, Jason and Starfire🙅‍♀️ and recently Jimmy Olsen and Supergirl 🤔 so.... Really? Jaysteph is so out of the blue and weird that should never happen? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 I'm not even asking to make it happen in the main canon! Most of these ships didn't happen in the main canon, who cares about the main canon? THE MAIN CANON KILLED ALFRED (you committed a blaspheme DC) and also the main canon destroyed Jon Kent childhood by aging him up 🤬🤬, this is why the main canon is not important anymore, this is why alternative universe and independent comics are more popular, like Supersons, Family Wayne adventures or the teen Titans series drawn by Piccolo... So is asking for too much to have Jaysteph somewhere? An animated show? An alternative universe comic? A fucking webtoon?? There's not a good convincing reason to not give a chance to these couple! Let them have a chance!! 😣😣😣😭😭🙏🙏🙏

from time to time i see posts saying that people act like 80s jay was an angel while he was portrayed to have anger issues even back then, and what i have to say to that is: no. it's plainly not true that jason ever had anything that could amount to be called "anger issues" in his original robin runs. he was shown to get exceptionally angry maybe twice and both of these times took place in really extreme situations. both of these times the anger was rightful and out of care. + nearing the end of his run and closely towards his death, starlin did want to make him more snappy to make him unlikable, but even then it wasn't portrayed as his natural trait; it was a result of the circumstances and his insecurity.

if you think someone getting angry when they meet a murderer of their father or when a woman is raped and driven into suicide means that they have "anger issues" then idk what to tell you. or if you think a child being a bit impulsive or irritable at times dictates their whole personality, then i really don't get your standards. especially that otherwise, jay is pretty consistently shown to be sweet, caring and preoccupied with stuff like getting an extra credit at school.

i said it before, but for me, jason's kindness is the core of his story. in his robin days, his anger comes from this place: it's a reaction to injustice and other people hurting. he never was on a truly temperamental side, not like dick. actually, let's compare him to dick quickly: dick got into vigilantism for revenge. as a kid. dick is also often shown to be more neurotic, and it seems to me like he's channeling this energy into commitment to justice. i think for jason it's the other way around: he first got into vigilantism out of sense of duty, and only when failing to protect people or directly confronted with a source of personal trauma he became angry. and i guess that's still healthy. if you don't sometimes get angry, are you paying attention?

but jason's anger post-resurrection? that's a tragedy on its own. i think it can be framed as an almost pathological reaction for him. wherever it comes from, fear or disillusionment with the world, trauma or lazarus pit– i think it's foreign to him, and that he doesn't really know what to do with it. making this kind of anger productive isn't easy, because it doesn't go away. i think it's eating him alive, and that he can barely recognise himself. he probably flinches at his own violence.

so anyway, angry jason? that's jason pushed to the extreme. jason at his rock bottom. and also jason who cares so much that he can't reconcile with how cruel the world is. i think viewing it this way rather than assuming it's his natural trait makes him a much more human and interesting character.

Wait... Does anyone have an AU where Jason was taken out from under Bruce's wing by Dick and he got permission to share the Flamebird mantle from Clark and Jimmy?

I was thinking about how it's a shame that the duo nature of the names has mostly been forgotten to the point of Jimmy just having the name pre-Kandor in MAwS. And then I started thinking about how, in Webtoon RHatO, Jason picks a phoenix for his new symbol as the series is ending. A literal bird of flames.

Like... He still gets the red theming, you get to explore the difference in how Dick and the Titans raise Jason contrasted to how Bruce (and Alfred and Talia trying his best to fill the gaps) did. Does he see Roy and Garth as older brothers in this world? Does he do reckless hijinks with Gar and Wally? Does Wally completely lose track of who anyone means when they say "Jay" in conversations? Does Dick keep him alive, or does Slade become Jason's resurrection & villain arc catalyst? Does Jason come to love Bludhaven or does he have to throw himself back into Gotham and get closure before he can be mentally in the present anywhere really? Does he still say "Oh my goodness gracious, I've been bamboozled!"? Does Dick go back to school after Jason graduates? Does Jason make Dick question the whole cop day job thing?

Tim ends up even more of a question mark if both Robins officially distance from Batman. Like... Does the fanboy follow to the Titans and stay, or does he still try to get someone to be Robin and get mixed up in it himself? Or is that whole scenario avoided as Nightwing gives Bruce a gentle talk about needing a support system of his peers instead of a father figure he won't call one and a series of children he doesn't have the support system to help as-is and Bruce gets like... The Outsiders into Gotham and opens up to Jim and stuff?

Tho also there's always the preexisting alternative Robin even if Bruce isn't building a team of peers he actually talks to... Anarky was introduced to be a new Robin before Tim, and it would certainly be interesting to see how he'd fit into the role, especially with a Bruce that's questioning what the role should even be. He'd still be dealing with a very intelligent kid with lots of attitude and questions for authority right after Jason left when someone actually answered some honestly. There'd be tension between Bruce's set in ways, his guilt, and his desire to do the best he can by this kid. And the kid himself had a lot of potential development set up in early stages that instead kinda just became "actually this kid can just do anything, fuck it" for a bit, then he got dropped. Like... He already mirrors where Jason went in the main continuity in some ways, so exploring him trying to fill those shoes (but ultimately realizing he should've been being himself the whole time) in a world where Jason is on a different path could be neat.

Also random sidenote, thinking about who else might hero in Gotham reminded me that Jay Garrick was based in Gotham way back when... Would be interesting to see an exploration of a world where Batman is the current hero of Gotham and the Flash was the one before him and how the eras differ and what factors led to that.

Part 2 - Chapter 10

Jon watched as the condensation of Jay’s strawberry milk boba tea dripped down to pool on the table. He grabbed a napkin and bit his bottom lip as he wiped it. This couldn’t be considered a date, right? He looked out the window to watch Jay speak on the phone, his soft pink hair ruffled in the light breeze as he nodded at whoever was on the other line. No, this was strictly part of the assignment Mr.Thompson had given them earlier in the week. He really shouldn’t be jumping into his fantasies when he hadn’t even asked him out. Their assignment had been to cover the up and coming student art showcase and Jay had suggested to meet up after school at the boba shop close by, that’s all this was and nothing more. Just a club assignment, but his heart wouldn’t stop hammering and his hands wouldn’t stay dry and why was it that he couldn’t say anything clever or funny? The moment that Jay’s phone had rung, Jon had felt relief since he had to step out to take the call. Was that normal, should he be this nervous? He wiped his hands on his thighs. Sighing to himself, he took a sip of his mango boba tea. His gaze wandered to stare out at the plaza outside. It was a sunny day in Gotham, the big green space in the center of the plaza was filled with people and students enjoying the mild weather. Dogs sniffed one another while their owners talked, skateboarders skated away from security guards only to return a few minutes later and shop goers carried clear iced coffee cups. The boba shop he sat in was also crowded, the noise so loud it became part of the atmosphere. Taking another sip of his refreshing drink, his eye caught on a head of dark spiky hair walking along with a much taller guy whose messy hair shone a bright orange under the shinning sun. Jon immediately shifted down in his seat, hid behind his hand and hoped that Damian wouldn’t spot him. Damian was good at ignoring him so he doubted he would even look his way, but for some reason he did not want to be spotted on his “not” date with Jay. Jon had learned that Damian was extremely observant, having as many younger siblings as he had probably accounted for that. If Damian found out that Jon had a crush on Jay, that the letter he had accidentally received was actually meant for Jay, and that he was on a possible date, that was definitely NOT a date, he would never hear the end of it. He could imagine it now, those perfect lips lifting into a smug teasing smile, making fun of his pathetic love life, probably bringing Conner into the ribbing. Jon risked a look back, lowering his hand a bit to peek over it and watched Damian turn around. A smaller body slammed into him, nearly tripping him backwards, Colin’s hands shot out to help stabilize him. A girl in a baggy black cardigan clung around Damian’s neck, her forearms resting on his shoulders and her legs wrapped around his waist. The white haired girl smiled down at Damian’s shocked expression. Jon’s hand slammed onto the table, his back ramrod straight, he watched her lips meet Damian’s. He watched Damian let her kiss him, let her wrap her arms tighter around him, let her fingers grip his hair. She then let go and dropped gracefully to the ground. He watched Damian let her hug his arm possessively, laughing at something he said. With his other hand Damian brushed his hair back casually and the group continued to head in the direction Damian had originally been going.

Jon continued to stare at the spot they had stood. The shock that Damian would let anyone kiss him left his fingers numb. He always seemed untouchable, many people tried to get close to him but couldn’t. His own brothers had difficulty making him soften. Hell, Dick was practically the only one who bombarded him with affection. Sure, Colin was constantly draping himself over the shorter boy, but Damian always rebuked him. Jon had only ever seen Talia caress his cheek and Bruce only ever pat his shoulder. Yet, here he was, letting a girl, Jon had never seen or heard of, kiss him. Publicly. “Sorry it took so long.” Jon startled spilling some of his drink on the table. Cursing under his breath he grabbed a napkin from the dispenser on the table and wiped it up. His cheeks felt hot when he looked up into warm brown eyes and imagined a green tint. Jay sat down across from him looking at him with concern. “Are you ok?” Jay’s eyebrows furrowed, “you look a bit flushed.” “No, yeah, I’m good and I didn’t mind,” Jon cleared his throat, “waiting for you, I mean.” Jay looked at Jon skeptically, he drummed his fingers on the table, biting his pink bottom lip. Jon turned away from Jay’s stare to grab his notebook. He lightly placed it on the table, took a deep breath, forced a smile and met his eyes. “We should get started before we miss the deadline, right?” Jay nodded and the rest of their time together consisted of comparing notes and discussing what would be written in the article. Jon didn’t notice that he wasn’t as nervous anymore. He didn’t notice that he had made Jay laugh a couple of times. He didn’t notice that their hands had brushed against each other once or twice. On his way home, Jon sent a text to his dad letting him know to pick him up from the bus stop, he didn’t want to walk all the rest of the way to the manor. No buses passed through Bristol. The bus itself was nearly empty with only two other people who looked tired and worn out. He leaned his head against the bus’s window unable to stop the replay of the kiss. Why was he so shocked? Damian’s older than him, he’s popular, he’s handsome, of course he would have a girlfriend. Why wouldn’t he? It was already bad enough that he was living in the same house as that bossy, infuriating, talented jerk. He saw him first thing in the morning, during school, even though Damian rarely acknowledged him, and he saw him last thing every night because they all ate dinner together. There was no escaping him, Jon felt he knew more than he needed to about Damian. He was too disciplined, a perfectionist, a workaholic, rarely ever knew anything about mainstream media and was overly committed to his animals and loved ones. Jon had at least thought Damian was as hopeless as he when it came to love, but it seemed that he had him beat on that front too. How dare he flaunt this girl, when he wouldn’t even give back the letter he wrongfully took. Who was that chick anyway? She had hung onto Damian with ease. Her thin, small frame was kept aloft by Damian’s strong shoulders and thighs. Jon could imagine how it would feel to hug him. He had seen Damian in a white T-shirt, soaked in sweat, the material see through and clinging to well defined pecs and abs, more times that he wanted to admit to. He had seen those legs in jersey shorts, knew of their strength. Her lips had touched, probably more than once, his soft plump lips- Jon stopped that train of thought. He didn’t need to imagine any further, didn’t want to. What Damian did or didn’t do, what he let others do to him, was not any of his business! He groaned and frustratedly ruffled his hair. Damian was so annoying. He hugged his bag against his chest, his arms tightened around it hard enough to be able to feel his school books and folders jab his biceps. He reasserted his dislike of the arrogant jerk. Jon wasn’t sure how anyone liked him…why then, did his chest feel so heavy?

Hoped you like the chapter! Jon is starting to fall hard, if he hasn't already. :D

[ggfj84]

The whole world watched as the JLA disappeared from Earth. Abducted, incinerated, teleported to a Bat Burger at the edge of the solar system, who knew?

Jason turned the channel and got ready for his night job. It wasn’t like he could do anything, and Dick would play dress-up to deal with the Rogue Gallery until Bruce came back again. The best Jason could hope for was that Dick didn’t want to tag along on his exploits in Crime Alley.

What he didn’t expect was a text message just before two.

Can you come to the cave? Need your help with something.

Great. If Dick wanted him to now check in every night, Jason would not be responsible for his actions.

And Jason wasn’t going to adhere to Dick’s whim like some obedient pup.

Working. I’ll drop by later.

Three hours, two coffees, and one burger later, Jason zoomed into the Batcave.

“All right, Dickface, I’m here,” he called as he lifted his helmet. “What was so important that I needed to – ”

“Sorry to pull you away,” Dick said rushed, not a hint of sarcasm in his voice. He was surprisingly dressed in jeans, a T-shirt, and a leather jacket. A stuffed duffle hung off his shoulder. “I just got off with Tim. He’ll take care of Wayne Enterprises, so you won’t need to worry about that. If he needs back up, he’ll let you know.”

Why would he give shit about Bruce’s day job? Jason told Dick just that, but his older brother just let out a little chuckle and motioned for Jason to follow him into the main areas of the cave.

“I called Stephanie, too,” Dick continued to ramble. “She excited to fly with you, and yes, I made that executive decision. I think she’ll be a better partner for you than Damian, and Tim said he’ll look out for the kid. They’ve been getting along better for a while, so I think it’ll be good for them to work together.”

Jason followed Dick almost on autopilot, listening intently but suddenly feeling so detached from reality.

“What are you talking about?” He refused to acknowledge his own high-pitched tone or shortness of breath. Dick was taking him to the closet - Batman’s closet. “Stephanie is with the Batgirls, and Damian – that kid needs to be Robin. It’s good for him.” Like it had been good for Jason, once, a lifetime ago. “What are you – “

Dick stopped on the very last step before the platform, putting him at Jason’s eye level, and clasped Jason firmly on the shoulders.

“You are going to be great, Jay.” His voice was pitched low and heavy with the weight of truth. “You have prepared for this. You know what needs to be done and you know how to do it.”

Dick could not be saying what Jason thought he was saying. There was absolutely no way. “You can’t be seriously, Dick. Me? After the last time –“

“You learned. You grew. You finally came home,” Dick said with an easy shrug, but nothing about this was easy. “That was the hard part.”

Jason begged to differ. “Just because I don’t shoot people as frequently as I used to doesn’t mean…” Jason gulped, his trembled hands becoming fists, and he was grateful Dick waited for him to compose himself. “I can’t do this. You can’t be asking me to do this.”

He never wanted to do this, not like this, not when Bruce could be –

“I know,” Dick said, pulling Jason up onto the last level and into a tight, reaffirming embrace. He repeated, lower, “I know.”

They stayed like that for longer than Jason would ever admit, and when he pulled away, he ignored Dick’s glassy and red-rimmed eyes. Dick did the same for him.

Instead, Dick nodded toward the wardrobe. “Why don’t you try it on? Just for size, of course.”

Jason thought he should be offended that Dick was treating him like some child who needed to be coaxed, but Jason was about to throw up. So he guessed he’d let it slide this time.

Inside the wardrobe, a suit awaited him – dark and menacing with a full facial mask similar to the one he wore with his current uniform. Jason went through the motions, undressing and pulling on the dark suit.

As it became a second skin, he called, “Why aren’t you doing this?”

“John Stewart, Zatanna, Lois, and Wally have an idea of where the Justice League might be. They asked me to tagalong.”

“You mean lead them.”

In the silence that greeted him, Jason could imagine Dick’s shrug.

When he emerged from the wardrobe in the cape, cowl still off, Dick smiled. “Looking good, Little Wing.”

He’s supposed to be the freaking Batman and Dick was making him feel twelve again.

Jason snorted and motioned to his uniform. “Bruce is going to kill you.”

“Yeah, yeah.” He pulled out his phone and cringed. “Well, I’m late, so one last quick pep talk.”

Jason rolled his eyes, only for Dick to flick his head. “There are times where you are going to second guess yourself. Don’t. You’re overqualified. Trust your gut, and if you don’t, then trust Stephanie’s. Trust Barbara’s and Cass’s and Tim’s. Lean on them. Despite what Bruce says, he isn’t a loner. He doesn’t do this himself, and neither should you.” He pressed his lips to Jason’s forehead, warm and reassuring and soothing. When he pulled away, a wicked smile was on his lips. “And hey, if you manage to keep all the kids alive, then you’re better than Bruce.”

Dick was walking away by the time Jason recovered. “T-That wasn’t funny!”

Dick waved without turning. “It wasn’t a joke.”

Jason caught up to him just before the Boom Tube. “Dick!”

Dick turned.

Jason nodded, a soft smile forming on his lips. “Thanks.”

For trusting him. For believing in him. For welcoming him home.

Dick’s smile said, “You’re welcome,” but his voice said, “I’d say, ‘Try to keep the place in one piece,’ but it’s not my place. So I don’t care.”

Jason snorted. “I think I like this side of you, Grayson.”

Dick hummed. “I could say the same.” He headed into the Boom Tube. “Kick ass, Jason.”

And then he was gone.

Jason glanced down at the symbol on his chest before glancing up at empty cave. The light from the Batcomputer cast the levels in a soft, blue glow. A bat shrieked. Stephanie’s motorcycle roared in a distance, signaling the arrival of his Robin.

A tiny, hesitant smile teased the edge of his lips.

Time to follow Grayson’s advice for once and kick some ass.

The End

A/N: Just wanted to write some Bat!Jason because of this.

New Beginnings - Ch 1 (re written)

prev - next

He puts his mask on, the red faceless mask stairs back at him in the mirror. He is now red hood not Jason, Jay, little wing, and definitely not robin that child died long ago. That child would have been sitting in his bed while his parents, or who he though were his parents, were fighting. That child would have gotten back from church earlier in the day and would have started praying for the shouting to stop. That child died after Batman didn’t save him, beaten and bloodied in the warehouse. Now he took that child’s place and became something that would scare the child he used to be. But he does it to protect and do what Batman couldn’t. So he straps in his gun into his holster and starts of his portal.

He moves thought the night shadows of crime ally as he moves, he takes down the usual suspects, robbers, thieves, criminals. People who don’t follow his rules. He checks the time it’s half past 12, and he hears his stomach growl. He sighs and sets his sight on the faded neon sigh of a diner, one that him and the child could agree was great. “Batburger” read the sign. He enters and hears an unfamiliar voice form the back, it is young in age and calls out “I’ll be right there.” He wondered who the new person was, he had been going here for a long time to the point that some know his regular. His thoughts are cut of when the person approaches there disheveled a bit seeming to have been cleaning up in the back. “Hello- oh.” The person is looking up at him eyes wide and for a moment he looks into there green eyes. They remind him of his past there eyes were vibrant. His time at ‘Eth Alth’eban was one he was both fond and not so fond about, yet there eyes remind him of his time there. He swears he sees a flash of neon green in there eyes. He stiffens for a moment, he is brought back to the rage of Ra’s al ghul the same green flash coming form the man’s eyes. He blinks and he is back in the restaurant and looking at the (y/c) haired person in front of him. There name tags reads “y/n” they seem to clock back in aswell. “Sorry I’m just a bit surprised, do you want your regular? They made sure to write it down so you don’t have to ask for it every time there’s a new person.” He just gives a nod and they go to the back to make his order. He shakes his thoughts trying to get rid of the person practical child behind the counter. He pays and leaves the restaurant and sits on a nearby rooftop eating his food before getting back to being a crime lord. He finds him self thinking of the child (yes he’s calling them a child they did t looka y older then he did when he was 14) at the wrong time though he gets a bullet grazing his shoulder. He shoots the man who shot him and with that he hear a voice that makes him cringe -he misses the voice he always will but won’t admit it-

“Little wing your hit!” God that nickname it -always- never made him happy it reminded him of the child. The blue acrobatic moved quickly to him “what happened you never get distracted like that” 

“Nothing dick.” He says grumbling, sometimes he thinks if you didn’t know the relationship between the two you’d think dick was meant as an insult but it wasn’t it’s just the name the blue man goes by. “I’m fine I can patch it up myself.” 

“No last time you did you got an Infection and you couldn’t even move your arm” The concern is clear and he knows there is no fighting it. So he begrudgingly moves back to the cave where one of his most favorite person is waiting for him, his arms crossed, an old wrinkled face is stoic, but if you knew the man you could tell he was upset, not enough to get a scolding but he is close.

“Master Jason, please sit” the gray haired man says motioning to the medical table next to him. He sits down and tries not to flinch as he starts getting patched up. 

“Little wing please tell me what’s wrong? You don't just zone out like that.” Dick persisted as Jason sits there. A chair moves out and observes them as dick continues to try to pry the issues out of him. The tired teen sips his coffee and starts to pul, up a program, the screen lights up with heart beats, and other medical information. The teen clicks on the tab labeled “Jason.” And then “irregularities” he scans the screen and finds something that peaks his interest. He then moves to another tab opening “footage” and “Jason” yet again. He moves to the time stamp that the irregularity occurs. He stops the camera and locks onto the face of the same y/c person from before. The teen moves back his chair and his tired voice speaks up through the chaos of the argument that was occurring. 

“Is it this?” Both men turn there head and Jason freezes once again, this time his eyes flash green, the pit. It causes the sleepy teen to stiffen and waken up. He mumbles and moves to scan the person and runs them through a database of faces. Then in bold letters flash across the screen 

“Not recognized.” The room freezes. Jason speaks his voice coming behind the teen now.

“What the fuck Tim?” Tim doesn’t respond frozen before Jason says it again more stern “what the fuck is this Tim?”

Tim respondents a bit flabbergasted “they don’t exist. And there’s no record of them being born or anything, not until 3 months ago.” 

“So what dose that mean exactly.” Says dick.

“It means they’ve either never been seen ever for the past how many years, which is impossible, there’s no way my system has access to everything every single database. Or they… appeared out of thin air, which-“ he is cut of by dick.

“Time travel or reality shifting.”

“Yes dick is right… we-we need to tell Bruce.” The three men all nod agreeing, tonight was there time to investigate. And as they start to in an apartment across the town of Gotham a person unlocks the door, you Walk into your apartment. The clock reads 2 am. And with a sigh you close the door and lock it. You put down your bag and kick of your shoes and grab a snack bar and unwrap it. Taking a bite and venturing further into your dark apartment and into your bed. You lay down and sigh before finishing your bar. As you drift onto sleep and the last thought that hits your mind as the anxiety eats away, is

“Fuck he probably was only weird because I was someone new. I really shouldn’t be concerned over something that is so stupid.” Oh how wrong you were.

Please help me find this Jason Todd& Bruce Wayne Batfam fanfic.

I came across this beautiful fic on archive of our own a while ago but now when I tried to re-read it I couldn’t find it anywhere. I don’t remember its title or the author’s name.

On the first half of the fic there were many sweet interactions between Jason and Bruce. Like Bruce would hold Jay in front of him and put his chin on Jay’s head while they were supervising mugs as Batman and Robin. Also Bruce would let Robin!Jason hide under Batman’s cape to keep warm when it’s getting cold. Jason was loved and taken good care of by Bruce.

But on the later part of the fic the Duo still argued and became apart from each other. The story ended with Jason chasing Sheila and getting killed.（If I remembered it right.）

This is definitely one of my favorite batfam fics. I left kudos, thinking I could come back later with my kudos history. Then I found out there was no history for kudos. I have already spent nearly 10 hours in going through all my reading history and got nothing. If anyone happens to know the title or the author of this fic please let me know. It would really be appreciated.

Batfamily VS Superman (my take)

So, I've fallen into writing Batfam fanfic of all sorts. Ships I've never even conceived of, but the family is FUN. Every once in a while I get a question about why I write Superman to be such an asshole. To be clear, I don't hate Clark or Superman. I adore the character whose hero fantasy is saving the whole world. I give the characters I like the most the most shit.

Superman is forced to have a global perspective because the man is basically a god. Nothing he does is small, he's incapable of being small. He would kill people if he ever became super hyper focused on one person or purpose. This should, by design, put him in direct opposition to the people whose job, specialty, and purpose in life is to be small - the Batfam. Even when they want the same things, they want it for different reasons and most of the time they reach a consensus.

The thing is, right, Clark would gladly die to save the world. He has died to save the world. That's about the only way he can die. Bruce or Dick or Jay would die to save just one guy they've never met and they're lucky they don't do it accidentally on any given night. There's a world of difference there and I love it when writers are able to play with it. So, yeah, my Supes is kind of arrogant and kinda rigid when others have to be more versatile and open to accepting new ideas. The world needs Superman, but it also needs little Damian Wayne tying up muggers before curfew because there are exams in the morning. Maybe it needs Damian a little tiny bit more because kids grow up wanting to be Superman but they already ARE Robin -they just might not know it yet.

_________ _________ _________ _________

“Nancy!” you screamed after clinging to the bathroom sink. Your heart beating super fast, already ringing in your ears. “Coming!”

Nancy didn’t know you were calling her for help. She was your roomie. Both of you renting an apartment complex in Hawkins Downtown. Going to the same college, Monday through Thursday. Nancy quickly became your best friend back in August 1986. You were very much like her, smart girls, with soft and elegant styles. She was amazed by your years living on the west coast, admitting to you that she dreamed about living there.

“Oh God…” she whispered after seeing you. Her hands groped your shoulders, giving you a gentle touch. “Is it Eddie’s ?”

“Yes…” you were pregnant. You were 20 and pregnant. Eddie Munson was the father, and you two weren’t even dating.

“What am I going to do?” Nancy gasped after hearing you start sobbing. She could see the pink and white stick in the sink. It definitely was positive, you were going to have a baby.

“Shh. It’s gonna be fine. I’ve seen you and Eddie. I don’t think he’s gonna freak out. I’m not sure if he is in love, but he totally likes you. A lot…” you met Eddie in 1987. He was 21 and started working in a body shop. He wasn’t interested in college, he wasn’t interested in commitment. He openly admitted that women weren’t interested in him, and he wasn’t interested in having a couple. Now, what the hell?

“I don’t know, Nancy. I don’t know…” she ran to hug you, leading you to your bedroom.

“Go to his work. Tell him, and give him some time to think.” you knew she was right. Eddie was sweet, kind, and noble. He wasn’t going to simply shut you out.

“Yeah, okay. I’ll do it.” he had to listen. It wasn’t a secret that you loved him. How could you not be in love with him? He was cute, carefree, everything. Taking you to dinner, the movies. Listening to every subject you had to struggle with in college, and watching your cheesy movies when he stayed with you. He said you weren’t fuck friends, you were his special girl.

He was like your boyfriend, but without a title.

“I’m here. Steve’s gonna be here too. And Robin and Max, Jane, Dustin, Johnatan..:” your closest friends were going to be thrilled. And no matter what happened, they were going to be for you.

“Thank you, Nance. Really…” she nodded to you, offering you a warm smile.

.

As you parked your car, again you were nervous. Eddie’s workplace was near your home with Nancy. But this time felt like hours, every red light in the traffic was giving you anxiety.

“Hi, Jay. Is Eddie working?” The man gave you a happy smirk, giving you a sign of waiting. “Munson! Your girl is here!”

“He’s been talking more than usual about you. I like you but it’s annoying” any other day you would’ve giggled with a big smile and crimson blush. But that day you could only give him the shortest smile.

“I’m here, I’m here” there he was. Wearing a dirty tank, oil covering his soft abs. His long hair was safe in a bun. Any other day you would’ve run and kissed his cheek, whispering how much you wanted to fuck him. That day, you gave him a nervous smile. When he noticed you were not getting close to him, he did it.

“Hey, sweets. What’s up?” you crossed your arms, clearing your throat. “Can we talk?”

“Uh… sure. I Can take some minutes” you lead him outside. He could put something was off. Outside of the shop, you were still crossing your arms.

“So…” you knew you had to play it a little. You couldn’t be so obvious, first, you needed to know his opinion.

“I just wanted to talk. I was super scared in the morning after a noise woke me up” Eddie giggled. There was his sweet and cute girl. Maybe he was in love with you. After hearing you sing one of his songs months after meeting each other, he knew he liked you. Okay, he knew he was in love with you. But…

“Aww, that’s cute. So you needed me to comfort you?” you nod, lying. Causing Eddie to hug you tightly. “Sometimes you act like a baby”

“Is that bad?” the mention of babies fits like a ring. A good starter for dropping the bomb.

“Not at all. It’s cute again.” Never in your wildest dreams, you thought you would be able to meet the real Eddie Munson. Him calling you a baby in the sweetest way.

“I do like babies… they’re soft, smell nice and they are super adorable” Eddie giggled again. “Not when they shit in their diapers. Babies are like little devils”

“Oh, so you would never have a kid? To teach him D&D stuff? Or make him a little metalhead?” it could be manipulative, you knew. But… you had to know.

“I don’t know, baby. Why are you asking this?” the question sent shivers through your spine. “Well…”

“What would you say if I told you I’m pregnant?” his face went pale. Like four seconds of silence, and then he started laughing. “You’re joking…”

“Eddie…” he walked towards the door of the body shop. Looking at something, a calendar.

“It’s a joke. December 28th is close. Happy innocents day” great coincidence. It was an organized accident “I thought you were saying it for real. I got super scared”

“Would it be that bad?” suddenly the air felt heavier. Your skirt wasn’t enough to cover your shivers.

“I don’t know. But it would definitely be an accident. Like, What would I even do with a kid?” that wasn’t what you were expecting. He was accepting his immaturity, and it disappointed you even when you had no right to feel bad about it.

“Okay, I’m not surprised” your answer disappointed him. And he regretted that, because he wanted to prove to you many things, but he couldn’t ignore who he was.

“It would ruin our lives probably. I-, you couldn’t be the mother of my kids” tears gathered in your eyes instantly. And he closed his eyes because he knew that was the worst answer he could give you.

“Oh, I’m sorry, Eddie. I’m sorry I can’t be at the level of your desires. I can’t even make you ask me to officially date.” he tried to stop you, but you were already in your car, leaving the body shop. You had sobbed out of nowhere but somehow he knew he was wrong. Because he knew you two acted like a couple but he never got the balls to take you on a date or ask about your feelings.

He didn’t want commitment. But after more than a year, you thought maybe he liked you. Maybe those nights together meant something. Maybe he cared for you. But no. He got anxious at the mere thought of you being the mother of his children. You weren’t his type after all. If you said hi to yourself at eighteen years old, she wouldn’t believe any of what happened in 1988. At days before the year was over, you were pregnant. And you didn’t even told the father because he thought it was a joke, and after that, he said he could never have a baby with you. However, you wanted to get rid of the baby. You didn’t know how to. Suddenly you regretted all those times you fucked with Eddie. Barely even asking if he had protection because your hormonal pills were helping, apparently not much. Just as his touch wasn’t real, you were holding on to a fucking lie. But, all he can think it’s a joke, you included. To him your pregnancy, to you… his love.

.

Steve ended up running a Chinese food restaurant. It was super pretty, with red sky lanterns all over the place. Every Friday you would go with Robin, Nancy, Johnatan and Steve of course, and Eddie… You knew he was going to be there, in the end, your friends were his friends. Before the fight, you would share Lo Mein noddles and an order of wontons with Eddie. If you weren’t pregnant, you would’ve confessed your feelings for him. He was basically your boyfriend. He was a good man with you, he never disrespected you or made you feel wrong, until now.

“Hey! I got our favorite table. Everyone’s here already” Steve greeted you and Nancy. A shaky feeling invaded you just by thinking about Eddie’s presence.

“Hey, relax. You’ll have me and Robin on each side” Nancy said, making you smile. “Thanks”

Eddie saw you, and it hurt him that you didn’t even made a glance at him. He noticed red lipstick and a turtleneck sweater, along with a skirt and boots. The same outfit you were in on your first, not official date. Eddie remembered the nights when you went to watch some movie, kissing like teenagers in his van, and going to eat burgers and burritos in filthy but delicious places.

“I think we should make a New Year’s Eve party” Johnatan stated. Everyone agreed, even you. But your attention was on your spring rolls, feeling Eddie’s gaze every time. You wanted to think he was just as hurt as you were. And maybe it was toxic but it wasn’t fair you were suffering more. He didn’t know it was real that you were pregnant. As soon you start thinking you need to see a doctor, you need to know how is the… baby, you block the subject.

.

Eddie didn’t hear from you in days. He even stopped by your apartment, and Nancy told him you were at college. Lies, you were there, spending hours on your bath, thinking over and over about everything. Eddie wasn’t sure if it was normal to be at college two days before the new year. But he didn’t think about that until he was in his van.

For some minutes he questioned if you were really pregnant. You reacted way too emotionally, but no, no way. You had the pills, and his health was too messed up to create a fetus. He smoked a lot, if he wasn’t with you all he ate was junk food. He barely did any exercises and just as he turned 21, he had consumed more alcohol than he was supposed to. So no, you couldn’t be pregnant. Anyways, he could see you as the mother of his kids. He never had someone to rely on. Uncle Wayne grew tired of his shitty decisions. You cherished everything of him. You were the biggest thing that could ever happen in his life.

Especially after he almost died. He started seeing everything differently. He wanted a partner, but he tended to say he didn’t do commitment.

That’s how it went for some days. Until New Year’s Eve approached and the novelty was the party at the Byer’s house. You knew Johnatan and Will, they were cool. Even though their mom was cooler, and his partner too. Jane, how you opted to call her instead of El or Elle, told you that his father and Joyce were leaving for some days, and they were aware of the upcoming party. Nancy agreed to not say a word to anyone about your condition. Because you didn’t know what the hell you were gonna do yet.

At the end of the day, you just wanted to forget about the thing that was growing inside you, with no pressure. That’s how you ended up getting ready for the party with Robin and Nancy. They said a red dress would fit you. You didn’t care honestly, but you just agreed without even thinking. Something at the back of your head was telling you to stay at home, but you couldn’t help going to the party. Even when you knew Eddie was going to be there.

.

Don’t do it, you screamed in your head.

You’re pregnant, you can’t drink, you were screaming to yourself again. But the truth was that you were scared, you weren’t sure if you wanted to keep the baby. The party was relaxed, but Eddie didn’t appear for dinner. You almost forgot about him at that hour. So Steve offered you a glass of wine.

“Thanks, Steve” irresponsable. You drank the glass accepting you just fucked things up. “Hey. Where’s Eddie?”

“I’m not sure. I haven’t seen him?” The mention of him was enough to drink all the wine. Then you asked for more.

And more, and then more, a little more, and finally more.

“Okay, y/n. Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to let you drink that much” Steve said. Johnatan was holding you steady, and Steve took your beer. You giggled, showing how drunk you were. “No, I’m okay”

“Careful, you can’t even stand alone” Johnatan was right. But that didn’t stop you. Somehow you managed to get into the kitchen to open a bottle of brandy this time. You weren’t even conscious, all you could think was I’m having fun. I’m not pregnant, it’s a mistake. Eddie isn’t the father, because I’m not pregnant.

“Eddie’s here!” Robin announced. Suddenly you weren’t having fun anymore. Your stomach twitched. Your heart started beating very fast, a cold sweat. Nervousness flooded you, causing you to grip the sink in the kitchen.

“Eddie is here” Nancy whispered when she found you. She watched you nod, giving her the view of your back still. “Are you Okay, y/n?”

“I-, I’m…” vision blurred, nausea. You felt extremely heavy.

“Y/n. Are you okay?” This time Jane asked, softly grabbing your shoulder after joining you and Nancy. You were going to faint.

“Y/n!” After Nancy screamed your name, everyone was in the kitchen. Max was the first to hear, so she came running and held you, your back on her legs. Everyone heard you collapsing on the floor. Nancy was in shock after seeing you had a bottle of alcohol in your hand. Perplexed, she moved your leg from the broken glass.

“Oh, my god. Who gave her the bottle?” Silence. Johnathan and Steve looked at each other a couple of times. When Eddie entered the scene, he froze after seeing you unconscious on the floor, some fresh blood surrounding your legs. “Who the hell gave her alcohol?”

“It was me…” Steve accepted, grabbing his chin. He felt bad, but he would feel worst.

“She’s pregnant!” Max opened her eyes widely. Everyone looked at each other in shock. And Eddie felt he was going to vomit at any time.

Before he could say or think o even breathe, Jhonatan and Steve were carrying you to Nancy’s car. With Mike, Max, and the not so kids behind arguing in shock about your state.

“Nancy. You’re serious?” Eddie asked. Grabbing Nancy’s forearms and stopping her on the porch of the house. It was dark already. The girl gave him a cold shoulder and silently joined Johnatan and Jane in the car. Eddie felt wrong, probably Nancy knew all the time, and after what he said, it would be no secret that Nancy would be a little distant.

“It’s yours. Right?” Eddie got scared but relaxed a bit after seeing Max beside him.

“Yeah…” the red hair nodded. “I thought it was a joke. I didn’t want to believe her… so I accidentally said she could never be the mother of my kids”

“Jesus, man. You traumatized her” probably Max shouldn’t have said that, but that’s what the metalhead beside him deserved.

“I noticed she was nervous since she arrived. And super anxious, but I thought it was nothing…”

“And I go and give her the fucking beer…” Steve said joining the conversation. Eddie looked at him. He couldn’t blame Steve, he didn’t even know. Steve was such a good friend, there were a lot of stupid reasons to be jealous of him, but not real reasons.

“Hey, I’m sorry, man. I didn’t know she was pregnant” you were pregnant. No joke, there was never a joke. Eddie got you pregnant and he was there, feeling miserable with Steve and Max instead of being with you.

“It’s okay, Steve. You didn’t know. Now… I’m going with her”

“I’ll take you. Who’s coming?” Dustin came running to Steve.

“I’m going.” Eddie smiled briefly. He never said it, not even to you, but Dustin was his favorite kid, then Max and Jane.

“Okay let’s go” Eddie went to the passenger seat. With Lucas, Dustin, and Max behind. There were 3 hours left for the new year. But nobody was thinking about that.

“Okay. Will and Mike stay to wait if Joyce or Hopper call. Let’s get going” Eddie was quiet. The twenty minutes trip to the hospital kept him thinking. Before he could apologize he wanted you to be fine. He knew you could lose the baby.

——

The hospital was empty. Nobody was there in the new year. 10:38 pm. Eddie hasn’t even seen Nancy. The nurse told them you were taken to ICU almost two hours ago. Eddie couldn’t stop feeling anxious, his left leg bouncing uncontrollably against the cold floor.

Suddenly a doctor came and said your name.

“Oh thank god” everyone stood up but Dustin gently pushed Eddie. As of saying he was the indicated to respond for you. So he did, shaking a little.

“I’m Eddie, he-, her boyfriend” he lied but truth was, he wasn’t your friend, he was much more than that.

“Doctor Collins. I already talked with her friend but she said y/n had more visits here. She’s fine, and the baby is fine. We can hear the heart in a good state. To be at five weeks, y/n was very lucky” Eddie sighed relieved. He slowly nodded. “she vomited a lot shortly after arriving. Thankfully she got all the alcohol out before her system processed it. And therefore, the baby too.”

“Thank you. Thank you so much” The doctor smiled a little. He was old, so Eddie trusted him, he believed that young doctors weren’t good enough.

“You can see her if you want” Eddie nodded and called the others to follow him and the doctor. “I believe she’s gonna be fine to leave tomorrow”

“Thank you so much. Uh.. happy new year” the doctor thanked Eddie and left them in a new empty hall, Eddie thanked the doctor didn’t ask how it happened. Only Johnatan, Nancy and Jane were already there. Suddenly everyone was quiet, looking at Eddie. He slowly reached the room you were in.

“Don’t you dare, Eddie” Nancy said stopping him. “I don’t want you to go and disturb my friend.”

“Nancy, I won’t. But I need to make things up. I’m going to be a father and she’s the girl I love. I need to see her” he said whispering. Slowly, Nancy let him go, moving away from the door.

“We’ll join you after…” he nodded to her, ignoring the looks of everyone else. Decided, he opened the door. The room was clean and nice. Thankfully smelled like you. Grabbing a plastic container with a straw on it, and looking at some papers, there you were.

“Hey…” you stopped looking at the papers. Raising your view and focusing on the man in front of you. 11:42 pm. You wanted to sleep when you arrived, now you were fine you were hungry.

“Hi…” you could only state. Suddenly feeling nervous again, feeling a little in that bed.

“You look better” Eddie mentally palm-faced him. Of course, you looked better. “I feel better, thank you”

“Always so damn polite” you shrugged, trying to ignore his gaze by sipping at your rice water. “Yeah, unlike others…”

“I know. I-, I’m sorry” you could see him scratching his hands. His long hair interfered all over his face. “I really thought it was a joke. I know I completely screwed things up when I said you couldn’t be the mother of my child”

“But uh-, I meant that… How could you be the mother of my child? You have a decent family, you’re sweet, fun, and extraordinarily beautiful. Hell, you’re even in college working your ass for a degree.” You smile a little, just because he flattered you as always. “And I’m Eddie Munson. Once the town freak, once Eddie the banished. Always poor, shitty family, stubborn, and mostly a loser. Why would you even look at me?, now How the hell you would end up having my baby? You deserved more…”

“Stop. Stop it” you said wheezing. You couldn’t bare how he was describing himself. “Don’t say that fallacies about yourself”

“I don’t need more because I’m okay with you. I think I fell in love with every detail of you the moment you asked me to have dinner for the first time. You work so hard, you send money to Wayne every time you can. You take your time to be with me almost every day, you were amazing with me” crying you protect the papers you had over your chest. “Why don’t you just accept that you treated me so well because I was a good fuck? And now that I’m pregnant you don’t want to take the responsibility because you don’t even like me.”

Eddie saw you curling into a ball on your right side, crying as you held the same papers. His heart broke, seeing you like that. He had to stop that pain, it wasn’t good for you or the baby. After all, he liked kids, and he had some experience with The Hellfire Club, but he knew a newborn was harder. Yet, he wasn’t scared anymore, because he would do anything just to see you happy.

“Y/n. That’s not true…” you could feel him rubbing your back. And when you opened your eyes he was kneeling by the bed. Giving you a sincere looking with his beautiful eyes. You could barely see him due to the tears. “I did all those things because I love you too. You’re a lot more than a good fuck. I guess I was a little nervous about asking you out, always postponing it. But I want something serious with you. I don’t mind having a baby with you, sweets. I will work harder, I’ll give you everything you deserve”

“I don’t want you to do this for pity. My baby deserves a real father” he smiled. He loved how reckless and direct you could be. He decided that he was going to be there for his baby and you. 11:55 pm. It wasn’t on his plans to settle down so early but he didn’t regret it.

“I assure you I want this. I’m sorry it didn’t go well, but I really love you. And I wasn’t planning it, but I would love to have a baby with you”

“See…” you handed him the papers. And finally, he could see the content. It was your ultrasound, a tiny little ball resting on your womb. He giggled, feeling his eyes get teary.

“Oh, God. He’s tiny” you arched your eyebrow, giggling too. “He?”

“Alright. It’s tiny… but I think it’s he” he melted when you gently tangled his hair on your finger. He couldn't stay still and not kiss you. So he reached your cheeks and deeply kissed you.

12:00 am, the guys are cheering outside. You smile through the kiss, hugging his neck.

“Happy new year,” he said rubbing your hip. It was a weird way to receive the holidays, but after all, it felt warm and natural.

“Okay. Sorry, but we needed to know what was going on. Happy new year” Robin said peeking through the door. After seeing you and Eddie all tangled he sent you both a smirk. “They’re okay, kids”

Eddie and you started laughing and happily received all of your friends in the room.

You didn’t know what was about to come, but you were glad to be okay with Eddie.

“So, yes. My girl and I are having a baby. It’s real, it’s happening” everyone started talking, and after inviting Eddie to see beside you on the bed, you grabbed his forearm.

“Your girl?” Eddie sighed and funnily rolled his eyes. “Oh for fucks sake. You’re almost my wife now. But ugh… Would you be my girlfriend?

“Of course, Eddie” after looking at each other like two stupid teenagers and sharing a short kiss, you both started talking about it with your friends.

Mathew Wayne headcanons

@theautisticcentre

His full name is Mathew Jacob Wayne(So him and Tim can have matching middle names since they debuted close to eachother)

Sunshine boy but goth flavored

Not shockingly tall but definitely passess as older than he is due to his height

Jacked for a teenager too due to his training

Him and Tim became instant besties and it didn't take long for them to start seeing eachother as brothers.Stephanie was more difficult but purely because Mathew was worried she was only trying to date Tim to hurt him and/or get at Batman

When Stephanie was Robin,that was when they became friends and he mourned her death almost as much as Tim did.He was VERY shocked when Gotham ressurected her and she showed up at Wayne Manor to greet him with a huge grin and a bear hug and he asked lots of questions through his tears of happiness

He came in when Summer was still (begrudingly) Sparks and was an influence on his current personality with his positivity.He made semi-regular apperances on Ember's Ashes and is considered an honorary Superfam member by Supergirls

Was the one who made Cass discover goth subculture and he thinks she's literally the coolest person ever(and i mean,yeah,he right).She thinks pretty positively of him in turn

Babs was the one to come up with the 'Batboy' name,as a joke but Mathew loved it so much that it stuck

Was lowkey intimidated by Jason pre-Rhato but went to join him after a fight with Bruce that really shook him and now they're eachother's favorite brothers along with Duke

Speaking of which,the reason him and Duke are so close is that they're exactly the same personality wise!!20/20 VISION BITCH THEY TWINNINNNNNN' /ref

Before becoming an Outlaw,he was an unofficial team with Stephanie,Damian,Kara,Summer,Lian,Cass,Babs,Dick and Bobby in Batgirl 2009!!They were simply known as 'Batgirl's gang' since they weren't official

Almost Cass level fighting skills once he gets older and even beat Slade at one point

His love interest is Jennifer Williams,the first Batgal and third Nightwing.She's black,the same age as him,a bi demigirl and autistic!!Their ship name is Jennibat and Jennifer's a very bubbly and kind but headstrong and snarky person who's interest are anything pastel,video games,literature and legos!She's adoptive daughter of a black lesbian couple who run a library and met Mathew as Batboy when she saved his life and the next day as Mathew Wayne when he went pick up a book for a school project.Since Jennifer is middle class,they go to different schools

Eventually,she gets so entangled in the Batfam that Dick takes her under his (Night)wing and gave her her title as a reference to how much she reminded him of Mathew.No official teams for her until Rhato but she has semi-official partners in Summer and Mathew and has had several teamups with the Wonderfam

His verse's Rhato is not that shitshow in canon but my own version of it-It still started in 2011 but the lineup is instead Jason,Eddie and Rose as the original trinity and Summer and them as the Dark Core Four and Pepper(@moonage-gaydream)as their Greta with the other members being(in order of when they join),Thad,Imani(@honeypotsworld),Kyle,Mathew,Lilith and Daisy(@insomniac-jay),Artemis and Venus(@insomniac-jay)!!
