It's a Tim Drake Centric fic,, that is like an AU where his parents don't die in Haiti but instead die in a break-in robbery situation. And Tim goes into a semi-catatonic state and doesn't tell anyone. I think its Jason who ends up finding him and I cant remember all the details but I super want to re-read it T-T.
If they make him get over his problems, he’s practically just a young Nightwing/ Tim.
If they kill him off, bring him back they already did that with Steph & Jason
If he becomes a villain they lose his fanbase
If he becomes an antihero Batman then that messes up Jason’s character arc
& if they keep up the ‘can’t decide between the Bats & the shadows even though I’ve lived with the bats for almost 6 years’ thing then I might lose my mind.
What do you guys think they should do with him (maybe a love interest or something?)
Like, ok, the plot hinges on Damian redeeming himself from things he did while in The League, specifically, returning precious cultural artifacts to their rightful people all over the globe.
Cool, I'm on board with that premise. And the narrative frames this as Damian doing the right thing, cause it is.
But then, at the end. Talia (who's suffering from Post Morrison Characterization Disorder but I digress) dethrones the king of Bialya and becomes queen by wielding one of said cultural artifacts from a place she wasn't born and she has no connection to... and that's also framed as the right thing?
So like, I don't get it? I guess. Like sure fine the king was evil and eating his weight on food while his subjects suffered. But hasn't that been the subject of multiple propaganda irl to justify imperialism?
"Oh, were okay to destabilize this entire region cause their goverment is bad! We're the good guys! Is benevolent interventionism!"
Like, idk, it's just a weird contradiction and kinda yikes if you think about it too hard in regards to Damian being almost the only character of Middle Eastern descent from the Batman mythos to actively be on the "Heroes" side
So I'm a huge fan if all things batman related and I can't remember the exacts of how Jason tood was separated from batman, why they were in the factory (if they were in a factory when he was abducted), and why he stopped looking for Jason todd
I basically want a comic accurate run down of everything that happened to Jason todd, from before he was abducted, to the end of when he was buddies with batman again.
The universe I'm mainly talking of is the Arkham knight universe, that's what I know the most about
Love is life
why waste letters. it's practical. like having pants.
