a little comic for jasons birthday. on being robin & batman and being brave & scared
#'I don't want to be scared. I want to be Robin' is so extremely Jason core#as if those two things are antithetical#as if they're mutually exclusive#because being Robin gives him magic etc etc#but GOD there's something about the phrasing and tense of 'you're about to be very brave' that fucking GETS me#because it's not about how you're feeling right now#it's not about who or what you are in this vulnerable moment#but who you WILL be#and all the things you CAN be#in the future#Because despite what baby Jason tells himself#Being Robin is not about being perfect#Being Robin is about growing up to be okay#jason todd#bruce wayne#fan art#Sorry for being emo in the tags but goddamn
