Because I The Universe Hates Bruce Wayne, Every Time One Of His Kids Or Friends Finds Something He Genuinely

You know what’s interesting?

Dick didn’t set out to murder Zucco with the intent of being a killer. He viewed it as an unfortunate byproduct of his actions.

His real goal was to “purge the world of criminals” because “darkness needs light.”

Do you realize how unhinged that sounds? It means Robin wasn’t created from anger. It was created from the messed up psyche of a child who realized at 8 years old that the entire world needs something better than what it was given and so he went out and became it.

I cant properly explain how insane that is. It’s like putting the logic of the Joker inside the mind of child but turning it for good. Everything is falling into place now. That is why the Joker hates Dick-he is the one Robin the man couldn’t break. Literally COULDN’T because when he’s facing Dick, he’s facing the version of himself that would have existed if he had put himself to good. That was would break HIM.

Imagine spending the better part of your life doing your utmost worst to show Batman that people and the system are inherently evil only to have him fall head over cowl for a version of yourself to completely invalidate your reason for existing. How psychotic would you turn when you realize you have nothing to prove?

This also explains why Dick is so well adjusted and sociable in a way that Bruce and the others aren’t.

Bruce loses it when he loses his children, he thinks it’s a failure of his abilities and doubts his life’s work.

Jason loses it when he thinks he’s been replaced because his reason for being is having someone care for him.

Tim loses it when he comes to a dead-end. He feels helpless and lost when he doesn’t know the next move because his reason for being is being able to solve what’s wrong.

Damian loses it when he feels abandoned. He feels hurt and broken because he’s a child who wants to be loved.

The reason Dick was the perfect choice for Dark Crisis and to become the dawn of DCU is because his sole reason for being is to be the light.

That is why Bruce refused to destroy a planet when Superman asked him too. That is why Dick was the only person in the universe who could control the Darkness infecting him when even Deathstroke lost his mind to it. That is why the evil Justice League chose Dick of every one to kill-to make a point.

This is why he’s looked up to by major heroes such as Superman, Wonderwoman, the Titans, the children, the villains, and the civilians.

This is why Harvey Dent called Robin Dick “Batman’s secret weapon.”

Although anger was the baseline emotion, Dick doesn’t have anger issues because:

Robin wasn’t created for revenge. It was created with the intention of building a world so unrealistically good, that the level of the vision Richard Grayson was aiming for and set the standards for- is so terrifyingly inconceivable.

And that-is why he is a happy, feral, monster.

Jason in the manor for movie night: How'd you convince B to let me in anyways? I thought I wouldn't get an invite till I dropped the real bullets.

Dick busy trying to wrangle Damian away from Tim and Titus away from the snacks: B is really bad at facing the words he throws around ya know? So I told him since it's my fault you died I should be responsible for bringing you home- Tim don't!!!

Jason: B said what!?!?

Here me out Hal

Platonically or romantically, either way.

It’s pretty much canon that England would leave America for long stretches of time during his childhood (like in that Davie strip), but I’d like to imagine that he hired teachers and caretakers or nannies to actually raise America while he was gone most of the time.

Of course, because America ages a lot slower than a human, those nannies would get old and retire or die, and then England would have to replace them like goldfish.

Eventually America would get old enough to understand the concept of death, and England would start to get a bit careless about it, like:

England: America, where is that nanny I hired? I haven’t seen her since I’ve arrived.

America(physically around 13y/o): …England, she died like 2 years ago. You forgot to hire a new one.

England: ah.

anyway I think it's rlly funny the idea that Matthieu and Alfred both love cheap box Mac and cheese (Matt way more tho, he has issues); and François is just HORRIFIED by it. Like they bring the little microwave cups to a world meeting for lunch, heat them up, and suddenly François just comes barreling in and smacks it out of their hands.

They're both like, really confused bc "you're the one who got us hooked on Mac & cheese???" and he flips bc "No! I got you obsessed with GOOD Macaroni and Cheese, not this!"

forever thinking about how marcille and laios have such a richly weird and funny friendship dynamic that people I see tend to write off as "god she hates his ass" but in reality it's the frustration of one neurodivergent weirdgirl to another neurodivergent weirdboy who has no concept of masking, has never had to mask, and simply doesn't know how to mask making their entire group come across as "the weirdo freaks" despite her best efforts to not be labelled as "weird" probably her entire life

We’re half way thereee~ WOooAah living on a PRAYERR!

5 hours and 45 minutes, estimated time of completion 10 hours 22 minutes (hopefully I still gotta do the others in SBI) ;-;

Everyone says Technoblade would be a child of Ares in the PJO and HoO books, but no. I say Demeter, the Goddess of agriculture. (I'm going to put this all below a cut because I'm really enthusiastic about mythology and will be writing a lot and I know not everyone will want to have to scroll past a large block of text.)

Firstly, Demeter riots when her daughter is kidnapped, straight up almost killing all of humanity by not letting crops grow and starving them until she got Persephone back. She is the cause of winter happening out of pure defiance against the king of the Gods because he is not bothered to rescue her daughter.

Less commonly know is her connections to the underworld. In early Mycenaean myths Hades did not exist and instead there were three main underworld gods. Poseidon, Persephone and Demeter. Demeter was, in the earliest of the myths, a goddess of the underworld. Of course in the myths we all know know she isn't, but that version still exists, and I feel like it should at least be considered. If you want a better explanation I would suggest Overly Sarcastic Productions' video on Persephone and Hades but to summarise it, Demeter and Persephone might have been two spooky eldritch goddesses before Greek speaking immigrants moved to the region and Poseidon fathered Persephone who was a horse while both he and Demeter were horses.

Demeter, as said multiple times now, is the mother of Persephone. Persephone whose name means 'bringer of destruction'. Persephone whose name was never said aloud as the greeks feared her wrath just as, if not more, than her husband's, whose name was also never spoken aloud. (I'm going to go off topic for a second here but Hades may not even be called Hades, and that might be the name of the underworld, showing just how feared he was if they were scared to even speak his name, scared of summoning his presence and causing death within the household. If that is how feared Hades was, imagine how feared Persephone must have been.) Persephone who killed a nymph (Minthe) because she said Hades was her lover and that she was better than Persephone, turned her into a plant (mint) and uses that flower as her own symbol. If Demeter can birth this well-feared goddess, then who is to say she couldn't birth an anarchist with a thirst for blood.

All in all, Demeter is, in my eyes, the best fit for the godly parent of Technoblade. She is loyal, vengeful, a goddess of harvest and has no mercy for those who have wronged her, as well as possibly having been a goddess of the underworld at some point and being the mother of one of the most feared gods during the era of Ancient Greece. If you think I'm wrong, about the myths or who his godly parent would be, please do disagree with me and tell me why I'm wrong, I would love to know why and what your opinions are! (/sincere)

Heheh look at this art
