When Bruce said he was proud of Jason for stepping away from guns, Jason immediately clarified that he wasn't doing it for him.

When Dick said he was proud of Jason for stepping away from guns, Jason didn't feel the need to clarify this.

Interesting contrast I noticed.

They’re everything to me, your honor

I find this panel so funny because now all I can imagine is Talia sneaking into the manor to the kitchen when Alfred is cooking and going “I’m going to teach you how I make my mloukhieh correctly so Damian can feel more at home”

And they have a nice evening bonding over cooking and sharing recipes

Bernard: I always saw him as like a kind of funny little man.

Tim, trying to contain himself but Bernard loving the Red Hood is pushing his limits: he’s a fucking criminal Bernard.

OOF

When you fly in to visit your man and instead get shot at 😞

sorry but do you ever think about the fact that the bernard we have today is a direct amalgamation of everything that happened in his past and i know that sound like such an obvious statement to say but it actually kills me to know that you can draw a direct line from who he is today all the way back to that sixteen year old boy who watched his best friend bleed out. like it is the defining moment in his life. it fundamentally shaped who he is and the person he's become. he is the bernard we know and love not despite the grieves shooting but because of it. because the gangs all got together and shot up his school. because tim walked out of that room with nothing but a baseball bat. because his darla got shot. because he watched her gasp and cry as she died. because he watched the blood coagulate around the wound. because he sat there and held her hand as her life drained out of her. because he walked into school that day with a joke he knew would make her laugh and her nose would scrunch up and she'd snort a little and tim would roll his eyes at him and call him ridiculous and instead he walked out with a bloody white shirt, blood under his fingernails, and two friends less. because, even now, almost half a decade out from the shooting, he thinks that if he closes his eyes, he will always be that stupid, scared little sixteen year old, holding the cooling body of dead best friend.

got a bit too angsty last post, so here’s a fun one to make it up!

a few years ago, when Damian was brand new to the manor and stressed out at everything.

Nobody knew how to help him calm down, and while Tim and Steph kept their distance, with the occasional annoying older sibling acts, Cass and Dick worried for Damian.

So, Cass left the manor around 3:16 PM and came back a few minutes later, a bag of chocolates in hand.

Dick, not wanting to know where she got them in such a short time, quickly appreciated her idea as he could see Damian tilt his head in curiosity.

(And if he could hear a little kid crying to his dad that a shadow stole his candy, he would just make a mental note to drop off more in the kids bedroom)

As such, Damian initially refused the chocolate, but later grew accustomed to it. As time went on, Damian ate chocolate exclusively from a well known vegan brand, which didn’t usually appeal others.

Which is why Damian was so confused on who would steal his chocolates??? Like??? Nobody even likes them??? This had to be a crime against him.

However, when he asked around, nobody had a clue to who stole it. Everyone denies stealing the chocolate, (obviously) but weirdly, not a single person had an idea of who it could’ve been

Dick asked if Jason was at the manor, because if so it probably would have been him, but when interrogated, Jason refused and said he had dropped by, but hadn’t stayed for long and didn’t even know he had chocolates. “And.” he added, “I hate those damn things. Can’t even call the chocolates.”

Damian then went to Tim, who simply stated that he was working on an annoying case. He had gotten frustrated and went to bed a few hours before the chocolates had been eaten. (Damian didn’t bother to point out he had found the chocolates eaten at 5 in the afternoon)

After asking Cass, Steph, and Duke all together; they reasoned that maybe he had eaten them in his sleep????? Which Damian doubted was even possible in the first place, leading him to be suspicious, however the three had alibis as they had all spent the day hangout out with their friends. “Our teenage friends, you know, going outside instead of staying indoors all day?”

Annoyed, Damian went back to his father, who could only offer to help him solve the ‘case’ really quickly before heading to a meeting.

The duo sat in the couch together a few hours later, both equally stumped as not a single clue had popped up. One by one, all members of the bat family step into the investigation, until everyone is in one of the living rooms, arguing with one another about who stole the damn cookies, friendships are broken, new ties are made, promises are destroyed.

Bruce has to break up a fistfight between Tim and Jason.

Damian rubs his hands against his head as he tries to soothe his headache. Whatever, at least it would last only today.

(and if years later, when Damian is a teen and grown up, the topic is brought up again by Dick and everyone starts fighting about it, Damian would just rub his forehead again)

Hallucination of Tim hugging Jason

Batman: Urban Legends #22

Dick is like “oh I never got to this part before, what do I do”

[shortcake1233]

I think a vastly underused trope is if in this scene:

It’s NOT Tim, but another bat. Can you IMAGINE Jason or Damien, heck, STEPHANIE having this conversation. It would be SO funny.

[tim-drake-scholar]

Jason Todd is actually so important to me. Please protect this child… oh wait
