I think my favorite version of Dead on Main is when Danny actually isn't hot. Not like, 'ugly, but literally just the most average looking Some Guy dude while Jason is a solid 11.
Nobody judges Jason exactly, but they are very 'why', especially when Danny just kinda, does his cryptid shit in the weirdest dorkiest way possible. He glitches out both himself and the cameras and his eyes glow with the fangies in front of people and then immediately trips. His extremely cringe one liners based off the opponent of the day (Danny and mr freeze are forcibly separated after they spent a six hour long pun-off). Danny will say the single most out of pocket most traumatic thing you've ever heard in your life that's somehow still really fucking funny and is he joking??? You never know. And he's not even hot or sexy in a dangerous vampire way he acts like bigfoot but he got caught on camera with his bare ass hanging out and a fish in his mouth.
Everyone is So Confused. Even the batfam and the Outlaws who know Jason is also kind of a huge dork himself are very 'that one? really?'. And every time Danny walks in to talk to Jason about killing the scary bug in his room or 'do you wanna go to bat/nasty burger and watch me eat my weight in fries' or 'hey how much blood is a human supposed to be able to consume before it gets weird?' with zero context and Jason always replies 'on god I need to fuck him'.
Very Jessica and Roger Rabbit or Mortisha and Gomez energy with them.
Jason Todd returning as a vampire would be so much fun to write. Especially if Duke stays as his Robin, but has to be super careful with his powers lest he disintegrate one of his favourite mentors (but Duke routinely threatens him with that when Jason annoys him). The hood makes sense then too, serving as a physical barrier that prevents Jason from just sucking the blood out of any bleeding opponent or person he's trying to save. Furthermore the inability to enter Wayne Manor without invitation, and keeping a bomb in his helmet a) because he's crazy like that and b) because beheading is one of the only ways left to kill him. I like the idea that Dick or someone finds out by accident and just rolls with it.
One unfortunate source of angst in this would be the fact that Alfred would very seriously have to rethink garlic in dishes.
So, something I learnt the other day. So, you know how dinosaurs supposedly can't see you if you stand still? Well that myth is based on real-life lizards/etc and how eyes in general work. So, once my dad starts infodumping, here comes some other cool information. We, humans, can in fact, also not see something unless it's moving. We fixed this by having our eyes constantly shake. And then our brain compensates for us, so we don't have to have shaky vision.
What if aliens don't have this? Like. What if they find out when one of us was looking at something in the distance, and they walk around this thing that's in front of them, and the alien is confused so they bob their head and oh, there's a thing there, but how did the human know that, and then we explain and they're like, horrified.
Humans are apex predators. They can hunt in packs. They can hunt in pairs. They can hunt on their own. They're persistance predators, which is unheard of. They get stronger when they're mad or scared. They have this thing called 'body language' which acts like a type of hivemind, even if they'll claim it isn't. And. They can see you. When you're not moving. They can still see you. If you ever find yourself in a fight against a human, for whatever reason? Run. Run as fast as you can. And hope, pray if you have a religion, that they won't follow.
Because I the universe hates Bruce Wayne, every time one of his kids or friends finds something he genuinely doesn't know how to do or is just mediocre at, Bruce tries to get out of it with a "when would I ever need to [tie balloon animals]" and their next case becomes unsolvable without Steph's excellent [ballon-animalling skills] or Bruce literally has no choice but to rapid-fire try to get good at it while his friends/kids shout at him.
I like the idea of Nightwing being a well-known figure among the hero community, but relatively unknown to the public outside of Gotham and Blüdhaven. Like, he was the first ever sidekick and a kid of one of the Justice League's founding members. Most older heroes are his aunts and uncles, the first generation of sidekicks are his friends, and to the younger ones, he is a mentor and older brother figure. The hero community loves him. But outside of that, he is just a local hero. He sticks to the shadows, and while the people of blüdhaven love him, and the people of Gotham have at least heard of him, he is not very well known.
That is until the Justice League hosts some sort of public event with a lot of younger heroes attending, and one journalist gets an idea for a fun, lighthearted story. They go around asking different heroes and sidekicks who their favorite hero is, and 80% have the same answer: Nightwing
hdhshajagagag omg you responded
I HAVE FINISHED :D
yeah their all red eared sliders, I got inspired by @draconicdeityarts
One thing I find interesting about Dick and his superhero identity is that, he doesn't have a public persona like Brucie Wayne. He is just Dick Grayson always, with or without the mask.
Also, considering he is the adopted son of a millionaire, he is pretty discrete. We don't really get reporters trying to find things about his life that often (it happens I think once and she is killed by Blockbuster ?) and most of the time, people don't know who he is at all when he is not living in Gotham, he is just the kind guy who live in the apartment upstairs.
[Movie night at Titan Tower]
Cassie: I wanna watch Ocean’s Eight
Kon: I haven’t seen that one yet, is it any good?
Cassie: It’s brilliant.
Tim: No.
Cassie: [already cracking her knuckles and warming up for a fight] excuse you?
Tim: [arranging snacks on the coffee table] No, I mean we can’t watch it. I don’t know if it’s any good, I haven’t seen it.
Cassie: So then why can’t we watch it?
Bart: [nabbing a fistful of popcorn] Yeah, C'mon Tim. I wanna see Galadriel steal stuff.
Tim: No heist movies. I’m not allowed.
Everyone:
Gar: I- What?
Tim: B has strictly forbidden any of us from watching heist movies. Anyone who does gets benched. For six months.
Cassie: You didn’t even get benched for that long when you started that alien war.
Kon: Why the hell- [grimaces] I mean, why the heck-
Gar: You’ve seen Mission Impossible though? I know you have; you keep making references to it.
Tim: It’s a fairly recent rule. It came about when we all started getting along -relatively speaking -and having sibling movie nights. Of course, when watching heists you always start talking about whether they can be done or not, and it gets heated and then you have something to prove, you know?
Everyone:
Gar: Are you saying you’re not allowed to watch heist movies because you reenact the heists?
Tim: Yeah pretty much.
Kon: Oh my god Tim what the hell is wrong with your family?
Kon: [cringes] I mean heck. Dammit!
Tim: Clark ban cursing again?
Kon: Yes, but also SO not the point.
Cassie: [interested] How did Batman find out about this exactly?
Tim: It took a while for B to connect the dots but then Jason did a truly terrible imitation of Nicholas Cage after we… [pauses in thought] liberated a certain document that I’m not allowed to discuss, and he put it together.
Everyone:
Tim: So anyway, no heist movies. Wanna watch the Matrix?
Everyone:
Tim: [going through DVDs] Mean Girls? Pacific Rim?
Bart: [Finally cracks] Tim did you steal the declaration of independence?
Tim: The Godfather? We could have a marathon.
Bart: TIM??!!
“Bruce wouldn’t call his kids any cutesy nicknames y’all are cringe” first of all Bruce canonically refers to children as “honey” and “sweetheart” as BATMAN, so, close your mouth, monster breath
Second of all, Thomas Wayne called him everything from “Bunny, honey, sweetheart, baby, bambino, sweetie” to “Gumdrop, honeybee, amore, babe, “ and you can die trying to take it away from me
me, incorrect: everyone is probably sick of me drawing this character by now...
my inner voice, wise: ah, but this cannot be... because I am part of "everyone"... and until I am sick of drawing them... it will not be everyone
me, opening a new blank canvas: ur so right
