Do you know this? You knit or crochet something. Then you notice a mistake and can't immediately figure out why it happened and how to bullshit it right. So you put it aside because you don't feel like spending an hour or more ro fix it.

Then after a few months! you notice you have an hour to take care of the project so you take it out and find the mistake after five minutes and another 3 minutes later it's fixed.

Frustrated rant end and i will happily continue with my githic butterfly shawl when i have time again.

Listen listen

Ppl rly need to know this.

There is a STRAIGHT pipeline from Supernatural to DC, via JA voicing The Bat and Red Hood (and cospyaing them both and making a whole cognitive mess for many fans over this), yes, true, but ALSO, there's a FUNDAMENTALLY EVEN MORE EXPRESS PIPELINE between wincest and all the various batcest ships, and now I'll try and explain WHY.

See, personally, for the moat part, timing was good apparently, for when SPN was ending, Titans (2018) was making its debut. Now, yes, it was controversial, but apparently, I was not the only one who was looking around to see what's up THE DAY AFTER SPN, and this was my gateway.

Well lo and behold, there was a whole fandom awaiting, with lore amass, and so much content going back to the late 30's. What a day to be a alive.

So when I took my first steps back into my BTAS childhood memories, rewatching it, and catching up on comics essentials, I began drawing the parallels.

The Winchester family is a close-knit, secretive, paramilitary, outcast, hunted and a haunted unit. They are socially isolated by their secrets, are extremely dangerous and play on a chessboard all of their own.

The (patriarch-lead) cult like behavior, the generational use and abuse, the possessiveness, obsessiveness, protectiveness, and the overall unhinged behavior, the violence, all come together crashing down on the loneliness of the call.

And atop of all that, they fling around the word family, as if anyone other then themselves have any idea what it means (....to them. News flash, no, their understanding of what is "Family" is by far sideways than any of them would like to even try and unpack. It's just not.) Add to this the unbalanced familial/societal roles they play for each other, rotating the burdens like rotisserie chickens in a hellish stove, the emotional minefield with a side dish of extreme physical proximity, and voila, there you have it, enjoy your Gothic Family and Gothic House tropes. Literally.

All of those, are just right there, same as any disease, in the Batfam.

A paramilitary unit, extremely dangerous, with a Patriarch thy shall not question, with an encompassing reach, sources and resources, who are all playing on a playground out of the societal norm, with the prescribed Lonelines Of The Call, the hurt, the comfort, the myriad of rotating societal and familial roles between them all up to a state of blurriness, undefined boundaries of any at all, be the emotional, physical or otherwise...

The Githic house is LITERAL. The Gothic Family tropes are in abundance, and oh, OH the ultimately TEANSGRESSIVE nature of the relationships of all that are involved.

See where it all goes?

Those both narratives thrive on similar grounds.

And with them all the classics. From parentification to unhealthy coping mechanisms and so on.

How can you not read incestuous undertones in subtext or otherwise, when:

The Head Patriarch took under his wing a child, in whom he saw himself, a child who wasn't exactly a son or a brother or a friend or all of the above or none of the above but mainly was more emotionally mature than the Patriarch at some point and their roles regarding emotional comfort would switch time and time again. Later, he adopts him as a consenting adult.

The second son, who was taken in pretty much on a whim, or worse, to replace the first one who flew the nest (re: first son, to later be proven that him being alone is bad idea and a literal suicide but like that's a whole other deal), THAT SECOND SON dies horribly, later to serve as the Guilt (tm), that second son, after resurrection and other horrors, literally has intimate relationship with THE PATRIARCH'S MYTHOLOGICAL EX, with whom she has a child (and the timing would suggest that child may as well have been in the next room at the time ymmv).

The third son RECRUITED HIMSELF into the cult. The fourth son was traded from one cult to the other.

Son 3.2 is a "daughter" and the only sane person who managed to step out of the cult as far as I can see, not before being sacrificed on the Altart Of The Call and left for dead (narratively speaking).

(And I'm using son and daughter deliberately, because they all fly under the same banner as a "Family", you see where this is all going?)

The second daughter - left one cult and signed up for another, her life and death given to the Patriarch with extreme loyalty.

The 5th "son"? Amassed A FOLLOWING OFFSHOOT CULT before joining the main branch.

None of them is free of this. Each of them hero worships their respective predecessor, and if not the precious directly, then the above him up the chain.

Just look at all of this:

The first son was given and raised by the 4th son. When The Patriarch returned, the first son gave The Child to him gift and bow wrapped. At least he hadn't kneeled and said "My Master".

There are plots like "Mother".

There are visuals like The Batman who Laughs and his feral robins on chains.

There is so, so much ground for any transgression to take place, one only needs to choose.

And, in the end, and I really digressed HARD, I'm here to say, that, whatever grounds sprouted wincest, exist in Batfam comics in abundance and then some, to the point of pipelining the shippers from one to the other and hold.

...and bonus points? The damn variety.

So, hey! Feast upon it, you freaks. Feast!
