[from the river, to the sea]

Bruce Wayne, squinting at the annual bat-tech budget: Hey Tim, has our manufacturer increased the price for the batarangs? I swear the cost is higher than last year.

Tim Drake, who just embezzled an entire Batmobile: ... Yeah.

& him hanging out with the waynes :)

While I'm sure bad guys in Gotham have learned over time that the Bats don't kill, that even after bashing your teeth in they'll flag down an ambulance or dump you unceremoniously at the ER, it's still a shaky trust.

One that is easily shaken seeing a child wielding a sword in the dead of night; nobody wants to learn how that is handled nonlethally. Or bad guys just surrendering one late night after running into an alley and Nightwing's standing over their unconscious buddy, holding the gun he wrestled away. They watch Red Hood break into the place they're robbing with a crowbar in hand and just decide they'd rather not chance it. They see a shadow that could be Black Bat and-- you get it.

I think it would be really funny if every time Dick and Jason joined missions they kind of failed upwards, even if they goofed off, or dredged up extremely personal shit, it helped with their secret identities or got them to think outside the box. There's always a disagreement on methods, someone gets kicked through a door but it's the right door and they stumble on all the evidence and the bad guys. Something that got set on fire was actually a secret message that only appeared upon heating, or they found evidence of the crime while trying to delete embarrassing CCTV footage.

I remember seeing a clip of this years ago this ISNT a case of lazy translation he’s literally saying “speaks Japanese” IN Japanese

They are the very first people on the list of people we should (and must!) criticize!

3 jokers au but dick and tim have both killed one of them after jasons death but told no one and then were horrified when HE CAME BACK.

jason comes back to life and kills the third one after realising bruce will never do it himself and theres no more joker and

dicks just like "how the fuck did it actually work for you"

jason "what"

tim "right like it didnt stick when i tried"

jason "WHAT"

dick and tim realising what theyve just said "wait i mean um"

you killed the joker? but i killed the joker?

i dont care if rick said that grey streaks wouldn’t be a permanent physical quality to percabeth. i dont care if logically it doesn’t—and yes it really doesn’t— make sense to have a grey streak in your hair permanently unless its genetic.

its my headcanon and im keeping it that way

"No climate justice on occupied land"

They switched up from golf clapping to police brutality real quick when she started talking about their racism.

I feel like Greta Thunberg is sort of the perfect case study for how these things go.

She starts off talking about climate change in general and the great and grand were like "wow, this little autistic girl is so articulate, let's clap for her effort". They loved her as a trinket but never really listened.

The moment she caught on that Awareness isn't enough and she started advocating for an actual solution - e.g. the dismantling of Capitalism - they came down on her like a ton of rocks.

Bruce and Talia in their on-off arc, where sometimes Jason would wake up and Talia was at the manor, they would play happy family for a couple of days before things went wrong again, Talia managed to fill up an entire album with pictures of the three of them, valentine's day, Jason's birthday, their skiing trip for the winter holidays – Dick went too, but refused to have a good time, he was just there to make sure Talia wasn't poisoning Jason's mind.

Talia later on re-created these moments with Jason and Damian, he was catatonic for some of the photos, but after she got Jason's stuff figured out it was all smooth sailing. So while on his murder tour, Jason had to go spend a week with his pseudo-mom and a five year old Damian, because she wanted to keep record of her boys growing up.

She has a album full of infant-toddler pictures of Jason and her, "mommy and me" style that he has no idea how she managed to get done.

Jason using his guns as blunt weapons is so funny like imagine ur getting shot at by the Red Hood, he runs out of ammo, you think you have a chance and he just throws the fucking pistol at you

The best part of Jason's fighting style at all ages is that it's just so fucking practical?? Like, look at the rest of the non-powered batboys:

Then Jason comes in like:

This is how you take over Crime Alley in under a year, kids.

I miss the pre-New 52 Tim and Jason dynamic so much. It was basically Jason beating the fuck out of Tim well being all "nothing personal kid I just hate everything about you, your existence and the fact you're breathing right now" and Tim spitting up blood going "what if your mother was a whore, kill yourself" and Jason just deciding right then and there that this kid is his favourite person. Then it just turned into a Tom and Jerry hunt across the city where Jason keeps hitting Tim with the "join me, be my robin" and Tim kicks him in the balls.

this is the ONLY damian wayne design i accept by the way. brown skin, a crooked nose, dark green eyes and thick eyebrows. keep that white-washed monstrosity away from me

And then when we can't think of how to start it, we create memes

tim: well at least i don't have the emo anime twink hair and eye combo

jason: i- hm..

tim: you're gonna kill me now aren't you?

jason: astute observation timbelina
