If I see another “Jason tried to kill Tim in the Titans Tower!!11!!111!!!!” take I’m gonna lose it.

1) He did NOT try to kill Tim. If he had wanted to, he would have.

2) no matter how DC artist draw Jason, don’t forget he’s a 19 y/o fighting a 16 y/o. This is something between an angry teenage fistfight over who has the bigger one and two deeply damaged boys blaming each other for things neither of them are responsible for.

And for the love of god stop demonizing Jason for fighting a younger opponent when that is literally what all of Robin’s opponents do. Yes, every Robin is just a child fighting adults, either put up with the suspense of disbelief, or if you’re gonna extend sympathy to one of the Robins for having been brutalized by an adult, then maybe that should be fucking Jason who was actually killed by the Joker and not “little helpless Timmy”.

You’re doing both characters a disservice by portraying them like that.

#salty posting sorry guys #jason todd #tim drake #the famous titans tower incident #Just stop having more sympathy for Tim than Jason it grinds my gears so hard because it so obviously stems from the fact that Tim is #a good victim who is not uppitty and will not become too loud but will keep all his problems locked inside so you can pity him and be #the good compassionate samaritan #while Jason is a bad victim who is problematic and in your face and doesn't shut up about it ever #you can have sympathy for Tim of course but one of these characters has had it objectively worse and I hate the implicatrions that the #Tim uwu-ifications brings with it about who is allowed to be a victim and who isnt #ok I should make a seperate post about this actually
