Finally came across the "Tim flinches around Jason" post. I only have two questions for the OP: What are you smoking? Who is your dealer? Tell me, so I point Jason in their direction for selling laced/harmful products
You know the worst part about Bruce not knowing what really happened in the warehouse, and so blaming Jason for his death, and as a result, Sheila's? It's knowing that if it were anyone else with Sheila in that warehouse, Bruce would not have rested until he figured out what really happened.
He would put on his "World Greatest Detective™️" hat and investigate the shit out of everything. No stone would be left unturned. Somehow, some way, he would uncover the exact details of exactly what went down.
But it's Jason, so he runs home to Alfred, and Alfred, forever Bruce's number one enabler goes "Welp, can't say I'm surprised. I could have told you he would get himself killed." and for Bruce, that's all he needs.
My toxic trait is that I scroll through my fy dash and block anyone posting Tim prop at Jason's expense
jason taking over the criminal underworld at age 19 when he should be curled up under a blanket writing a hurt/comfort fanfic with pinterest open on split screen while instrumental music blares in his headphones and some random sitcom plays on a second screen beside him, all while a scented candle burns on his bedside table and the ice in his drink clinks around the glass every time he takes a sip
he should also wear thick-rimmed glasses and smell like mangoes
Sometimes the only thought that stops me from committing a certain atrocity is that there’s a parallel universe in real life in which people were not actually stupid enough to vote little baby bean Jason to be killed off.
Quick question: in this universe where he's not killed off, is there also another poll where folks vote for him to not get fridged by infecting him with HIV/AIDS?
This was such a suspicious question. Did you vote for him to be killed off? Because🔪🔪🔪
Now to answer your question: No. This is a perfect universe. Nothing bad ever happens to my baby.
But you know what? There are literally an infinite number of universes out there, so you can go take your pick, I suppose. (Don’t you dare pick the one in which Jason is voted off to die of aids, otherwise🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪)
As much as I love Red Hood, I'm not a fan of Jason's death and everything we could have done without. But I did discover that DC meant to do away with him, one way or another. If he had been voted to live, the writer would have infected him with HIV/AIDS. That's what my question was about.
I love baby Jason and do imagine that child growing into a man, without the baggage that came with his death, resurrection and everything surrounding it.

it’s wild to me that the “titans tower incident” gets angsted so hard as “the time Jason tried to kill Tim” because it’s not even the time Jason actually tried to kill Tim (bftc is a mess better left forgotten I can’t even get mad at that). Like that was not a murder attempt that was a waffle house tier fight that was high schoolers beefing in the parking lot. Growing up me and my sibling could’ve recreated the “titans tower incident” play for play and been fine the with each other the next day
If Jason wanted Tim dead, he would have shot him in the head, or stabbed him or anyone of the numerous ways he knows to kill someone.
The fact that fans think Jason would beat anyone to death is what pisses me off. Jason, who got beaten to death, who wouldn't even beat the worst criminals to death? This same Jason? Do you people know what it takes to beat someone unitl they die?
The biggest gaslighter in history:
Talia: Dick just because I am pregnant and Bruce and I have 2 biological children well.....it shall soon be two. As I was saying it doesn't matter, you are apart of this family
Dick: Wait.....are you pregnant with TWINS?!?!
Talia: No we're expecting one
Dick: But you said 2? Who is the other one??
Talia: Jason of course
Dick: 🕴
--------------------------------------------------
Talia: Awwww you were so cute as a baby My Dear
Jason: .......
Jason: Where did you get my baby pictures from.....?
Talia: Don't be silly Jay, I'm your mother of course I have pictures of you as a baby
Jason: 🤨
--------------------------------------------------
Talia: Oo Jay come look at these pictures I found
Jason: Were these taken when you were pregnant with Damian? If so I don't remember them
Talia: Nooooo they were taken when I was pregnant with you
Jason: What
--------------------------------------------------
*Looking at Jason from a distance*
Talia: Oh Beloved it looks like your genes were more dominant than mine when we made Jason
Bruce: Darling...Jason is not our child biologically
Talia: Yes he is Darling, he's a product of our love just like Damian
Bruce: Darling....
--------------------------------------------------
*Bruce is relaxing in bed*
Talia: *whispers* Jason looks just like you
Coming back to this hellsite and seeing all the Jason love is giving me all feels 🥰🥹
Jason Todd goes to therapy. His therapist is nice. She listens to his story. She chuckles at his jokes. She teaches him to recognize unhealthy thoughts. Her candy bowl has the peanut M&Ms he likes.
At the end of the session, she leans forward, takes Jason's hands in hers and says, "Jason, your self-care homework for this week is to viciously slaughter anyone who hurts you."
Literally every anti Jason Todd person on here:
"Murder is wrong! We have a famously corrupt, classist, racist, and horrifically draconian justice system to toss people into instead 🥰"
Like oh right killing criminals is dehumanizing but glorifying the justice system is totally not propaganda don't worry guys!!!
Do Jason antis really believe Jason would beat Tim to death if he wanted to kill Tim? Do you guys know what it takes to beat someone to death? He wouldn't even beat a criminal to death, the worst ones, he wouldn't beat them to death but you guys think he'll beat TIM to death? Has anyone of you ever taken a moment to study how he killed all the people he's actually or attempted killed?
please write sladejay please write sladejay please write sladejay PLEASE WRITE SLADEJAY PLEASE WRITE SLADEJAY PLEASE WRITE SKADEJAY PLEASE WRITE SLADEJAY
"Christ," Slade throws this head back, hitting the wall behind him as his fingers curl around locks of dark hair and tug. "The mouth on you."
Why do you not like Jason as a crime lord? I don't think I've met any fans who don't. You don't have to answer this if you don't want to. Thanks.
Thanks. Loaded question but who reads DC comics and doesn’t love to rant once in a while?
People who want Jason to be a crime lord are a mixed bag, anon. From my experience, some are disingenuous people who are nostalgic of when Jason was a pathetic crazy villain; they want this to be the hill on which Jason fights Bruce & co (and dies on). Some are just severely naive or confused fans. Then, there the fans who want Jason to stars in gangster stories. I’m not part of that crowd, though.
1. I'm okay with Jason killing traffickers and dealers, but not him becoming one. That’s an actual deal breaker for me.
2. I don't want to see Jason becomes what he hates for no fucking reasons.
People who advocate for that idea often mention UTRH, but anyone who think Jason is an actual crime lord in UTRH is basically telling me they don’t have enough reading comprehension to read/watch UTRH or a dictionary at this point. (More about that below the cut if you care.)
Beating dealers and crime lords, making them afraid to deal drug to kids... Jason achieves nothing as a glorified drug dealer, that he can't accomplish as a vigilant. Affiliating RH to organized crime is more of a dead weight and a moral liability to his character than anything else.
3. Jason being turned into a crime lord is not going to magically solve how DC portray him.
DC will never let a crime lord be the solution to crime their heroes can’t be, or imply that what Gotham need is a "good crime lord", or that such concept even exists... Not blaming them here because that shit is irl harmful. No, that just asking DC to portray him as a scumbag or a cautionary tale; "he who fights monsters become the monster" and "Batman was right all along".
I hope this delayed answer clear things, anon.

OK more cause this is my favorite topic I think Jason should be deeply unsettling and unnatural even if he looks mostly normal I think he should have horrendous hair-raising vibes and being near him should give you a horrible chill I think animals should hiss and growl and snarl at him like crazy and I think if you see him out of the corner of your eye you might get jumpscared because for half a second he looked like a decaying corpse and/or Halloween yard decoration because the versions of him that are dead and alive are simultaneously existing right on top of each other and sometimes you accidentally see past one and into the other.
