hiii here is a fic rec i think you would like the author also made another that was really good
I had already read Persephones in hell b4 this one BUT OMG I DID NOT EXPECT TO LOVE THIS AS MUCH AS I DID
Also
This IS MY DICK GRAYSON
Like THIS IS HIM
My son
Also 100% how I think the siblings should sibling
I love the manipulative asshole with a heart of gold Grayson. And him and Jayjay 20/10 I love it
THE FUCKING BLUEJAY STOPPPPP AT THE ALTER IM GOING HOME
(Also I read this at 3 am in a hostel in Prague and idk I need to give it bonus points for ambiance)
Anyway if anyone wants an idea of what I -a complete internet stranger- view Dick graysons character as. Itâs this
And to end
I love this section so much
Anyway
100000/10 thank you so much for the rec
I want more but I will not be Icarus I am okay not flying too close to the sun (but if you have more plz do anon)
if i had to explain what tumblr is like iâd only show this
I need someone to wrap Donna Troy in a blanket and surround her with everyone that loves her and allow her to fit into her skin and find a sense of peace in knowing who she is <3
I also think she gets to punch Bruce Wayne in the face
Hey do you know a canon summary of Jasonâs plotline/ development? Or if you donât at least what you think his development is? I saw your Damian and Jason being league bros rant and I really liked it. Idk shit about jack thatâs canon I just see family vibes in fanfic and my trauma says awooga
Hi hi
Yes yes
Okay so my big issue with the league bros Jay and Dami brotherisms
Is that yes Jaybin was a sweetie (I wouldnât say he wasnât reckless or that he was the kindest or nicest Robin bc I think thatâs a gross exaggeration but he was a sweetie)
But he just? Wasnât that? When he came back? He was rightfully angry and violent. He gave into the violent tendencies he had as Robin (which unpopular opinion I think were COMPLETELY JUSTIFIED BTW)
but like? Jay had a bat habit of murdering all his teachers when they were done with him
He killed his goons and low level players in his race to take over the Gotham underbelly and like? Idk he just wasnât? The current red hood or the past Robin.
Like since I am a dick Grayson stan account Iâll use them to demonstrate.
But Jay and Dicks relationship is awful when he first comes back
-he steals dicks nightwing suit and kills people in it ruining dicks standing and making him a target for more anti-hero âvigilantes should be killedâ stuff that was happening at the time
- he killed like 100 people in black gate bc he was like âwell i wanna kill criminals and here i am surrounded by criminals whatever shall i doâ
- then thereâs all the WEIRD ASS STUFF he did to Dick and Damian when they were Batman and Robin (stripping them naked and trying to reveal them that way to the world??)
Anyway Jay was a fucking VILLAIN
And then after all this, the reboot happened, they gave Jason a collection of very fucked up and traumatized folks that he couldnât just murder his way out of
And he like actually had to have dimension and he was moved from being imo one of the most interesting Batman/ batfam villains to being a pretty cool anti hero more in the line with batwoman or like the new Harley Quinn
But he didnât start out that way
He was a murderer with sociopathic tendencies who remembered what it meant to give a fuck through a lot of shared trauma and experiences and now. His relationship with the bats (Iâm talking specifically about the batlings rn like dick, Tim and Damian) is much better
Dick helps him clear his name when heâs accused of murder
Tim and him work together on cases
Heâs trying to be there for Damian
And this whole dynamic gave me the ability to watch my precious baby boy beat the shit out of Bruce Wayne during Gotham war (I just love angry Grayson lemme live)
Right
But if you think for a SECOND THAT OG VILLAIN JAY TODD WOULD HAVE BEEN LET AROUND TALIAS BABY??
Not happening
Now a lot of people are gonna be like âoh youâre picking and choosingâ or âoh youâre ignoring Taliaâs characterization in morrisons and using jaysâ and yeah I think that Taliaâs characterization in dicks Batman run was awful and while I think certain things Jason does in the comic he wouldnât have done if written by someone else. It 100% is more fitting than the racist nonsense Talia Stanâs had to deal with. ďżź
Anyway I think if you want sweet and fuck brotherisms/siblingisms/ other bat relationships (since you donât read canon and some of these are lowkey ignored by the fanon i 100% you check out like any fanart/ fanfic of them)
Dick Grayson and any younger Robin is always adorable
Tim and Damian in Gotham war
Jay and Damian in the Robin run
Tim and Duke whenever theyâre together
Tim, cass and Steph also have a very fun dynamic (the angst potential here goes crazy tho)
Jay and Dick as red hood and nightwing are very very fun
But also nightwing and Jaybin is fucking adorable (cue dick trying to take Jason Todd from Bruce like YOU FUCK UP IM ADOPTING HIM MYSELF)
Jay and babs (we ignore that one time they tried to make them date we IGNORE IT)
Outside of the Batfam batkid relationships are also so fluffy
Jay and bizzaro have a very cute relationship
Tim and the young justice team are fucking adorable esp him Cassie, Kon and Bart
Supersons can be read as platonic or romantic but theyâre fucking adorable and I loved the supersons comic so so so much
Dick and the fab 5 trust me Dick and Donna sibling fluff hurts my teeth.
I personally hated the comic this happened in but if youâre not a big comic fan / you donât care about pre crisis that Jay and Roy??? Adoptable
Anyway this is mainly based on my opinion I AM mainly a Nightwing reader so some of these things come from my Jay Todd Stan friends (cough cough cough you know who you are cough cough) so Iâm sorry if I fucked up any details
my bravest knighttt... come hither ..... mmmwah !! ok you are dismissed
"I have depression." - character who has been through extensive therapy.
"I feel dead inside all the time and nothing helps!" - character who does like, regular introspective thinking and is aware of the concept of mental health.
"Leave me the fuck alone I'll be fine once I get over my stupid shit." - repressed character.
"It's fine I'm just having an Empty Time. What? Yeah, empty times, you know, when everything is like bzzzzzz in your brain and you don't shower for two weeks. Why, what do you call it?" - ooooughhh now we're talkin
THIS!!!
Is
My favorite
Thing
âbatman loves his nightwingâ this and âbatsibs love nightwing thatâ, what about the batsibsâ friends / team loving nightwing âźď¸âźď¸
The thing about Dick Grayson is that he has such a unique quality that just draws people in and holds them captive.
Titans (2016) Issue #26
He has a charisma that's intense. People from all walks of life find themselves just constantly looking at him for friendship, advice, love, guidance, and just something that calls them to him.
It's the impact he has on people that's astounding.
Titans (2016) Issue #27
They love him so much and they respect him so much that his absence is like a huge gaping hole in their chest. People feel lost without him because they've come to rely so heavily on him. Gar and Steel literally only joined because Dick asked.
This is something Roy catches on to and is well-aware of. He practically hounds Dick into creating the Outsiders with him.
Outsiders (2003) Issue #1
But you think Roy is the only one to capitalize on Dick's Nightwing effect? Hell no.
Titans East Special
Dick isn't just a person. He's a home. He's the guiding hand and the ship's steer control. He's special to people because he's everything they want him to be. He's their lover, best friend, brother, and partner. Whatever role they're missing in life they find it him him because he makes himself versatile enough to fill whatever they're looking for.
Dark Crisis Issue #1
We say batsibs' teams but he's the whole Justice community's everything. He fills the connections of both Batman's side and Superman's side.
He IS the most well-connected person in the entire community.
Teen Titans (2003) Issue #23
Look at what Kon says -
"Nightwing and Starfire brought wave two. Which is just about everyone whose ever been a Titan. It's a natural thing when Nightwing shows up. None of us are conscious of it, really--but we all look to him for orders. Robin's lucky."
The sheer respect. That Kon has for Nightwing is indomitable. Oh, but you think that's all?
Do you know what the superhero community says about Nightwing? Kon will tell you what they think -
Teen Titans (2003) Issue #33
The Titans (1999) Issue #39
He calls. They answer.

Supergirl (2005) Issue #3
And sometimes this means more than friendship love but still born out of respect. It's so funny to me how Dick goes around friendzoning people.
Cassie
Even when people don't like what he wants they still do it because they respect him. Because he had an impact on them and they were were moved
Titans (2003) Issue #89
Aquaman, Ollie, John (Green Lantern)
JLA (1997) Issue #121
Kyle Rayner
Even people he's just met are like - this guy's pretty good!
Green Lantern (1990) Issue #81
Coming from a Green Lantern comic!! Not even a Wondergirl, Wonderwoman, Batman, or Nightwing writer. A green lantern!
Speaking of which, when Hal Jordon dies, a list of people are selected to be The Hal Jordon's replacement and guess who it is?
Action Comics (1938) Issue #642
Hal forces his soul back into his body and comes back to life but DC does a "what-if" thing and shows what it would be like if Dick actually became a Green Lantern.
Superman/Batman Issue #60
AND BRUCE'S REACTION!! His most favorite son combined with one of his least favorite people đ¤Łđ¤Ł
Superman/Batman Issue #60
But Bruce's faith in Dick actually elavtes his opinion of Hal.
ALSO!!-
Superman/Batman Issue #61
I JUST KNOW THAT BRUCE WAS WRITHING IN JEALOUSY!!
But anyway, shows to prove that no matter who Dick is and what identity he takes, he will always be the love of the hero community. Because in this world, each member is a combination of the Justice League AND the Titans.
Superman/Batman Issue #60
Yet Dick is still the center of it all.
A literal god
Nightwing (2016) Issue #49
Jon and the hero community
Justice League: Road to Dark Crisis Issue #1
"It would mean a LOT to people if you came and said--" "You're all overreacting." "We need you."
"You're all overreacting." - Clearly, this isn't the first time someone has already come to Dick about being the center of the community.
Not just by the batfam, but for everyone Dick is the most beloved person in the community. That is a fact.
I write bad Dick Grayson and TMA fanfiction on ao3 follow me @imtired_likerllytiredI literally keep creating and deleting accounts on this hellsite lurker since age 8
