What Damian Says: You're never allowed to join the club. I'd never want to be in a club you're in.
What Damian Means: I will protect you so much that you're never ever allowed to die ever
Jason jokingly started a "dead robins club" which includes: Jason, Steph, Damian and Dick and Tim jokes one time that he feels left out and asks what he needs to do to join. Damian thinks he is serious and tells Tim that he will make sure that Tim never joins the club, he shall never be seen in the same club as an imbecille (its his way of showing he cares)(also he lowkey doesnt want to share a club with him)

"You're lying," Damian said. 
And honestly, Tim had to laugh, "I don't know why you think I am. I asked to keep a cat, Alfred said no, and that was that."
"But that..." Damian furrowed his brow. Tim's voice was taking on a different tenor than usual. Something a bit more strained. "He let me have a cat."
"Yeah," Tim said, cringing when his voice cracked on the word, before trying to play it off with a casual shrug, "you're his son."
And Damian was fooled for a moment. He had his mouth half open to reply that he was the blood son. He was different. Superior. 
But he paused upon the fact that Tim hadn't just made that point for him, he'd given him an example. 
The cat. 
Tim had wanted one and been refused. Damian had wanted one and had been obliged. 
He had wanted a dragon and been obliged. 
But Tim couldn't have a cat, and Damian, whenever he asserted his superiority, had thought he was lying. 
He was lying in a way. They were the same. Tim was a well-respected associate of his father, but... 
You're his son. 
But that didn't mean as much as Damian assumed it did. 
Damian assessed his options before doing something he usually avoided. He swallowed his pride, looked at Tim, and said, "I...don't fully understand what your place is here."
Tim gave him a smile filled with enough sympathy to make something ugly roll in Damian's gut. "Me neither, kid. Me neither."

While I'm here: IRONHEART BABYYY
Imagine knowing you can do so much more in life if you just had the opportunity. Then imagine someone looks at you and goes "I see your potential and I have an abundance of resources for you to use that potential."
It makes Riri relatable when she's inclined to take the chance (even if, as audience members, we know this to likely backfire because that's how stories work). She felt like she had to fight twice as hard as anyone else to get to the place she feels she needs to go.
This is a story for you. Even if you haven't read her comics or only kind of cared about her character when she was introduced. This trailer showed a story that most people can relate to and only few are willing to hear about themselves.
I'm looking forward to this story (and the hopeful upgrade from that tank looking suit to a more comic accurate suit). I'm also completely and utterly terrified that this is going to tear my heart into pieces as I connect with her character. Please do her well Marvel Entertainment and MCU fans 💕

Brushing off the Tumblr page specifically for the new Superman trailer.
James Gunn has proven that he fundamentally understands Kal-El as a character. This man has read the comics and it SHOWS.
Yes of course I'm thrilled about the details of the Clark versus Superman voice/posture change and the Smallville-esque bedroom. But I'm most thrilled about the story being told because it goes to the root of Superman's character.
The world will always force action to be political.
You stopped a war? Who did you do that for?
You saved a life? Well what kind of person's life?
But Superman doesn't care about the world that cares about borders. He is an alien who cares about humanity. It tracks for him to be distressed over the concept that anyone could ever question the morality of goodness and justice.
It also tracks for Lois Lane to ask the hard-hitting questions because she knows how the world works. Clark tries to be everything he wants to see in the world. Lois is presenting how the world actually works. This fascinating dichotomy making its way to screen is vital to our world and to the story of Superman.
Hope matters. It always has. It just matters more in the hands of someone who has the power to do something about it.
My hopes are high. In this world we need a Superman representative of hope and this might be it.

Damian and Tim bond by Tim taking a photo then Damian painting/drawing it.
—-
Tim: I got this photo of the sunset with snow
Damian: printed?
Tim: yep, no blur
Damian: leave it on my desk.
Tim: *places photo on desk and leaves*
—-
A few days later
Tim:*sitting on bed in room*
Damian: *comes in and without a word places a painting of the photo onto Tim’s bed and then leaves*
Tim: *silently takes it and hides it away*
Bruce, walking in: hey just wanted to-
Tim: oh hi
Bruce: what was that?
Tim: nothing, just Damian
—-
Bruce: Dick, Tim and Damian never speak. I’m worried they aren’t getting along again

Tim seems like the type to have a Snapchat story dedicated to his crashouts
He frequently posts videos of himself yelling about the idiots he encounters in his daily life, and people live for it.
Tim, in his car: I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF BAD DRIVERS! IF YOU WANT TO DRIVE LIKE A PRE-SCHOOLER, THEN PULL UP IN THE LITTLE TYKES COZY COUPE, MOTHERFUCKER. I AM TWO SECONDS AWAY FROM REAR-ENDING YOU! AT LEAST THEN YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO GO THE FUCKING SPEED LIMIT
Tim, barely visible and whisper-shouting in a dark closet: If I have to deal with Lex Motherfucking Luthor one more time I might just have to commit a felony about it. Because what do you mean you "aren't familiar" with our DEI policy outline???? We've been doing business for years????? We've had this EXACT CONVERSATION, like, TEN TIMES--
Tim, not even bothering to find an empty room: I should have stayed an only child.
Dick’s voice offscreen: Huh?
Tim, deadpan: The only good outcome of having siblings is that if they threaten to kill me, I might actually get a fucking break —— assuming they can grow a spine long enough to actually make good on their threats, that is.
Dick, in the background: C’mon, Tim you guys just quit fighting— Damian, stop- DAMIAN
Damian, now in frame, making a spirited attempt to free himself from the upside-down hold he has been wrangled into by attacking Dick’s ankles: I only wish to give him what he wants, Richard!
Dick: No, Dami, what did we say about- STOP BITING ME
Tim, staring deadpan at the camera while the others fight behind him: I have never envied Jason Todd more in my life

Jason should kill the Joker and just not tell anyone. like, lets be real here, if he were to silently slip in and kill the Joker in his sleep, are any of the workers at Arkham really going to give enough of a shit to say anything??? with the paperwork they’d have to do, and the attention they’d get once the media caught wind of the break in/murder, i bet all Jason would have to do is leave like, a basket of muffins next to the dead body as a thank you and the staff would just dispose of the body and shut the fuck up about it.
i bet you he could get through a solid six to eight month period of being weirdly happy and interactive with the rest of the family before Dick finally asks why he’s been in such a good mood lately over family dinner
Jason, casually: i dunno, i guess i’ve just had a weight lifted from my shoulders; there’s less to drive me away now.
Bruce, thinking he’s finally done something right: aw Jaylad, i’m so happy you’re feeling more comfortable!
Dick, the only batkid around when Jason was Robin, remembering all the times Jason would transform into the happiest kid on the planet only for them to find out a week later it was because he’d pushed a bully down the stairs at school and fractured his wrist: hold on B.
Dick: Jay, what weight has been lifted?
Jason, still nonplussed: well i finally got my GED, and the Joker thing really calmed the lazarus rage. also Steph got me into puppy yoga, we go once a week.
Bruce:
Bruce: what Joker thing.
Jason, glancing up from his food: ? d’i not mention that? he’s dead, man.
Bruce:
Dick:
Dick: sorry, what?
Tim: why the fuck am i never invited to puppy yoga?
Bruce, having a panic attack: y- what are you talking about Jay-
Tim: i would LOVE to go to puppy yoga. what the FUCK?
Jason, shrugging: you can come to puppy yoga, replacement, it’s all good
Bruce: the Joker’s dead?
Tim: FUCK YEAH, PUPPY YOGA
Jason: i think they do it with goats too.
Damian: i would be interested in this activity.
Jason: hell yeah family yoga session
Bruce: JASON PLEASE EXPAND ON THE JOKER THING
Jason: no i don’t like your tone. anyway, dick, puppy yoga?
Dick:
Dick, glancing at Bruce’s glare nervously: …i would be down for puppy yoga

the dynamic for damian and tim should be "i want my older brother's approval but i could never let him know that or he'll be so annoying" and here's my pitch: think about damian doing smth reckless and being scolded, feeling incredibly bummed out, and then tim tells him "that was sick as hell actually those losers don't get it" and then damian's mood instantly lifting and telling tim all of the little details about how he pulled it off

Book so good it deprives you from sleep, makes you walk twenty circles around the house, and causes an unhealthy attachment to a character you will never encounter again

i don’t think people who don’t read comics/mostly read wfa understand how much of a dweeb tim drake actually is because he was supposed to be a Good Role Model For Tween Boys in the 90s. one time he found out his roommate at boarding school was an alcoholic so he poured all his alcohol down the drain instead of just ignoring it like a normal person. his girlfriend wanted to have sex with him and instead of just saying “i’m not ready” he launched into a monologue about how “making love is like opening a door” and he “isn’t ready to open that door yet” because they “might have adult feelings for each other, but [they’re] still just kids.” 90s tim was the type of kid to remind the teacher to assign homework. he somehow got mad bitches even though everyone highkey thought he was weird. in one panel of one issue he randomly said he had to be “vewwy quiet” and never spoke like that again. he canonically plays dungeons and dragons (or the fictional dc equivalent). the money his dad left him after he died wasn’t even a lot because his dad went bankrupt shortly before his death. like it was a substantial amount but not enough to make him rich. i cannot stress enough that tim was SUCH a Regular Guy TM and constantly worried about not standing out. he purposefully did bad at sports and pretended to be winded in gym class so people wouldn’t suspect anything. like he wouldn’t even try and be average, he would purposefully almost fail. he is not a cool rich skater kid guys he’s such a dork
