if i ever call a character hot, it's because i appreciate their character design. no desire to fuck or even date at all. just good character design.
Red Hood climbs up onto a roof with the intention of watching some drug smugglers below, only to find Robin, crouched in the perfect hiding space Jason had noticed. The boy is eating fries from a curled down Batburgers bag and sipping a Riddler Shake.
Jason: What are you doing here, Boy Wonder?
Tim: Probably the same thing you are. Spying on criminals.
Jason: ...
Tim: Want some fries? They're Jokerized, just to warn you.
Jason: Why?
Tim: Kon-El got some to try the last time he sneaked into Gotham and it turns out they're really good.
Jason: No, why would you offer me fries?
Tim: I have enough to share and I can always buy more?
Jason: Why are you being nice to me?
Tim: I'm offering fries, not a kidney. Why wouldn't I?
Jason: Because of the knife to the throat or, you know, that time I beat you within an inch of your life?
Tim: ...
Jason: ...
Tim: What the fuck was your time as Robin like?
Jason: The fuck?
Tim: A mentally unstable individual violently attacked me because he was scared or mad at Batman. That's like a bi-monthly occurrence for me, minimum. At least you were really insane and want to get better now-
Jason: I never said I wanted to stop killing.
Tim: I said get better. You want to be in control of yourself instead of being all Lazarus crazy, right?
Jason: Yes. But that doesn't mean I won't kill.
Tim: That's still wanting to get better. You think half the rouges who rotate through Arkham are actually trying to get better by even that much?
Jason: No.
Tim: Me, either. So that makes you an improvement over the usual. Plus, you know, the trauma from being murdered and all.
Jason: That's not an excuse to attack a kid.
Tim: No, but it's an explanation, which, again, is better than the usual. And you're showing signs of genuine remorse. That's huge around here. How often do we get that?
Jason: Anyone ever tell you your standards are kinda fucked up?
Tim: They'd have to pay closer attention for that.
Jason: Fucking what?
Tim: Doesn't matter. It's not like you're going to talk to anyone and even if you did, who'd believe you?
Jason: ...
Tim: So, you want some fries?
Jason: Yeah, sure.
Jason: These are good.
Tim: Right?
Jason: Is this nori?
Tim: Uh-huh; with paprika, kosher salt, and msg. I think there might be something else in there, but I haven't been able to place it.
Jason: Potato starch.
Tim: Oh, that makes sense.
Jason: I am definitely Jokerizing my fries from now on.
Tim: Try them with the Riddler Shake, too. The mint really compliments them.
Jason: I'll do that.
Tim: Wait. Doesn't that guy work for Black Mask?
Jason: Yes, he does.
Tim: So...want to pull a World's Finest?
Jason: What?
Tim: You know, a team-up?
Jason: You-? Fucking- You know what? Sure. Let's pull a World's Finest. *under his breath* Little freak.
The old Young Justice team have semi-frequent meet-ups and hang outs. They chat over the phone separately rather frequently, and have a group chat that is almost constantly blowing up.
That said, not everyone can make every meet. Sometimes it's an invasion, sometimes it's that Anita hasn't been able to find babysitters, Sometimes school or herowork gets in the way.
However. There is 2 times a year where it is compulsory to turn up, every member, each time:
1. Christmas. They're still acting as Santa, and the 1 year they don't (they get sent to an alternate universe or similar instead) the universe realises there is no longer a Santa, provides one, but at this point it's a non-negotiable tradition to be together 4 Christmas
2. Pride. They hop between different cities, and it takes a while for other heroes to realise/catch on, but since the beginning of YJ, they have all been attending pride. Retired members get put the costumes stowed away for Christmas, and take out masks and flags, and show their support, as heroes, for the queer community.
One notable year, Tim and Cissie get arrested for fighting a homophobe. The media blows up when Connor Luthor, sporting a bi flag comes to the police station to bail them out.
Headcanon that the bats are the only people in Gotham who don’t know about Joker Junior.
The only people who know JJ’s identity are Bruce, Barbara, Jim Gordon, Joker himself, and Harley Quinn. Tim made Bruce promise not to tell Dick, and that continued when Jason came back, with him not wanting to be one of the older man’s triggers. The trend followed with Duke, Cass, Steph, and Damian, with him being more and more certain that if he told them, they would hate him.
Nothing lasts forever, though, and the batkids soon notice how differently Gotham treats Red Robin.
Rogues like Riddler, Harley, and Poison Ivy refrain from hurting him too much. Seasoned thugs quickly take away any electrocution devices from the newer ones, stating that “we don’t electrocute Red Robin”. When it comes to RR, Gotham’s citizens can get very peeved with the Bat.
The kids also notice the odd closeness between Jim, Babs, and Tim. Hell, there are times where they invite the older man to dinner and he goes off to whisper with Tim. The one time someone tried to subtly follow them, Babs stopped them in their tracks.
Everything comes to ahead when Dick goes deep into the bat computer archives for a case he assumes is tied to another. And lo and behold, he finds something titled Junior. He assumes that this is about a child villain and is curious, as the date tells him this happened while he was off in Bludhaven so many years ago.
It’s not.
He calls in the other bats(Tim is somewhere else) and they read through the files and watch the videos. God, the videos.
Dick is angry. Him and his siblings are fuming. Everything comes together and makes so much sense.
How some Gotham citizens treat RR differently. How Jim Gordon always makes sure RR is okay. How Babs knows how to calm Tim down better than anyone else. How Bruce always looks so guilty when he looks at Tim, a scarily similar look as the one he gives to Jason.
Their brother had been keepinh this secret for years, probably because he didn’t want them to hate them(Jason shakes his head furiously. “Stupid kid”.)
When Tim comes home, lo and behold with Babs, he immediately clocks onto their thoughts and makes a break for it. Babs blocks the door for everyone else. She says nothing.
Thats as far as I got.
lmao Percy picking Annabeth because she'll push him down a flight of stairs if the quest requires it.
some of you guys had to google this one and it shows lmao
the heroes of olympus adaptation needs to be made simply so that will solace can be casted as a blond and nico will be LYING THRU HIS TEETH as he tells percy, who is now blond, "youre not my type"
holy shit Jessica Parker Kennedy was phenomenal as Medusa
Watched PJO with my parents (they’ve never read the books) and I can confirm that believing Luke is the GOAT whilst simultaneously suspecting Annabeth to be the traitor is a show-only canon event.
I feel like I’m watching a Greek tragedy in real time.
what are your percy jackson predictions ?
hmmm
I predict that he’s going to continue to be the king of sass
THATS IT I NEED TO RANT
so anyway I love love love love love the new Percy Jackson show and want every book slapped on season after season forever why? idk but if I had a fav child (the children being tadc and Percy Jackson) it’d be Percy Jackson just bc of how obsessed I’ve been with Greek mythology in general for since forever. Also I just love Annabeth as a character. “You drool in your sleep.” Brings me joy. But her dispute with mommy Medusa is making me struggle bc they’re both such awesome characters. And the way Annabeth is gonna go from “This is imperanent!” To “Hera you suck, f4 you specifically.” Makes me happy. I think I spelled the word where Annabeth goes “this is ___” wrong but whatever u get it. Anyway that’s all bc my thumbs hurt 🩷🙏🏻
PJO is taking me kicking and screaming back into my hyperfixation
everyone’s talking about wanting a hoo show in the future, my question is are we ready for that?? are you emotionally prepared to watch a 13 year old get outed by cupid???
My little blorbos are all written by women because I rewrite them in my head
Not me just realising Percy saying “She met a pinecone’s fate” is an Easter egg to him calling Thalia, Pinecone Face.
Tig quotes bc I’m incredibly bored
Okay thats all but lmk if I should do more! 🫶
xander was actually a comedic genius for this 💀💀
