#joey and slade

[thebestestbat]

@rootbeerqueer ME TOO i want this so badly. i want joey to get to be angry. i think that for him, unlike raven, his mother is not the easiest target for him--not because she is not safe, but because of how close they are. if joey is mad at adeline, who does he have really? i think it would be very easy for him to be angry at grant, because grant is a bitch and grant is dead, but also he's you know, dead. so it's not very helpful, there's still nowhere to put that anger.

i am thinking of joey getting really, horribly, self-destructively angry at slade. i think you're so right that joey doesn't feel like he has a right to be angry at slade, for whatever mixture of reasons: blaming himself for getting kidnapped, not really remembering slade's abuse because he was so young, feeling like what happened to him wasn't as bad as what happened to other people that slade hurt, feeling responsible for slade's actions as his son. and its like JOEY. slade destroyed your family and almost got you killed and you were seven.

i want joey to ask slade like why did you do that. i don't know if slade would have any answer for him let alone a satisfying one, because slade is pathetic and a father. but to have joey ask for that...

and agh, this is what bothers me about not-well-thought-out or not-well-executed brainwashing arcs. i love when there's a question about how much is the brainwashing and how much is the brainwashing allowing something deep down to come to light....but that has to be well written u know? HOWEVER approaching this in a vibes-based way, the vibes of this are so good. joey being angry at slade, joey thinking explicitly about the Cycles he is Trapped In. YES.

It was easy to lure the newest Titan away from the rest, back the boy into a corner. He was the weakest link, the newest hero, the easiest to manipulate-

Then, the ghost child transformed, glowing rings passing over his body to reveal a familiar black-haired boy. "Uncle Slade, what the fuck are you doing?"

“Slade Wilson tries to be a good dad” fellas, is it good dad material to cut your son’s throat to keep your reputation and also drug and manipulate your daughter and also send assassins after her so she can be heroically saved and also poison her and also try to kill your children’s only friends multiple times and also

I love that family so much. And I definitely don't make art of them as often as I should, especially since they'll have a kinda important role in Superboy: Hope Reborn (I'm adding way too many characters in that fancomic but I'm having fun so who cares!)

Grant would be 24 if he was still alive btw

Also, giving Respawn a name and making him a clone of Grant instead of Slade because, yeah, his name is Respawn, dammit!

SLADE: A Deathstroke Fancomic #3

Part I

Hey guys! Im sorry for not posting anything all these months, this is the first part of what it is the 3rd and last issue I did for my fancomic series SLADE that i made a year ago, the idea was to make an issue for each of Slade’s child but unfortunately i never got to make Rose’s 😣, but at least here is Joey’s, or as most of you know… Jericho, i really hope this could be a nice introduction for the character if this is the first time you are going to read about him, Joey is basically the kind and heroic son of Slade, younger brother of Grant but older than Rose, but who unfortunately pays the direct consequences of his dad’s job , changing his life forever.

I hope you like it and that you could feel something reading it!

What do the other Wilson family members think of Jason?

I assume you're talking about in the context of him being shipped with one of them, I've shipped him with all of them at least once so I'll go down the list! Tell me if you want specifics on a particular ship or au though.

Suggestive content ahead, the Wilson's aren't exactly known for being normal sex havers

If he's dating Slade:

Grant (if he's alive) - Frothing at the mouth mad. He thought Slade was homophobic this whole time. Particularly upset it's Graysons brother. Sidenote: I don't see Slade fighting the Titans without Grant's death as a factor, so Dick would be Grant's nemesis.

Joey (if he's alive) - dating his ex boyfriends brother should be illegal. He used to babysit that little gremlin. Calling his mom to complain. Shaking crying throwing up. Keeps trying to get Jason to find someone else, anyone else.

Rose - HER EX BOYFRIEND ARE YOU BEING REAL. Betrayal on all sides. She gets over it eventually but that doesn't mean she's happy about it. Her brothers - if they're alive - being horrified by it make her warm up to it. She's a menace first and a person second. She's working closely with Dick to break it up though.

Adeline (if she's alive) - Heard about it from Joey, disappointed but not surprised. Sneers at it being a college boy, but after learning more about Red Hood she's mildly interested. She's impressed that anyone would choose to put up with Slade, but as long as he STOPS FUCKING CALLING HER she'll let it be. Could be persuaded into a threesome far, FAR in the future after a couple years with Jason has made Slade more tolerable.

Billy - smug, he TOLD Slade it would be more than just sex but no one ever listens to him. Also extremely tired, part of Slade being more tolerable is that the jobs he's willing to take slim dramatically. He gets huffy about it but he's definitely lowkey salty they haven't asked him to join yet.

If he's dating Rose -

Slade - Canonically their biggest fan. Jason has barely started flirting back with Rose before Slade is acting like he's already Jason's father in law. 50/50 on whether he's genuine or doing it to fuck with people. Shows his approval by challenging Jason to armed combat routinely and inviting him on jobs. Keeps asking when he's getting grandkids.

Grant - over protective but pretends he's not. GRAYSONS LITTLE BROTHER?!? Abhorrent. Is reluctantly bribed by Jason's cooking. Only starts warming up to Jason when he realizes that Jason is like, made of house husband stay at home dad material. Like an hour into a house call informed him that Jason is so hopelessly in love with Rose it's almost pathetic.

Joey - FUCKING FINALLY!! He's been here since day one, plotting, scheming. Carefully manufactured scenarios for them to spend more time together. Best man at the wedding, he wrestled Grant on the ground for it. Video called Dick with TEARS IN HIS EYES to tell him the news.

Billy - Normal father in law. Takes Jason on fishing and hunting trips. Reconnected with Alfred at the wedding and they're both ecstatic. You'd think it would be Slade who'd be gunning for the number one grandpa title and you'd be wrong, Billy is clawing his way to the top of that list.

Addie - Who? What? Oh. Fine. Reluctantly showed up to the wedding. Admittedly charmed by their dynamic. Mildly jealous at the sight of a non failing marriage but she's got enough self awareness not to be upset over it. Leaves the best gift by far, and she does end up trading recipes with Alfred by the end of the night.

If he's dating Grant:

Slade - Not exactly mad, but he is annoyed. He rolls his eyes but looks away when Red X is chasing the second Robin around Gotham, but he draws the LINE at his son giving up mercenary work to be Red Hood's lieutenant. Especially because it looks,,, serious, and serious means he'll be related to the bat sooner rather than later. 98% sure they're doing it to upset him specifically (he's wrong it's only like 25% for that)

Joey - In counter to Dick and Rose, he's actually pretty supportive. He thinks it's cute and he's glad that Grant has a good influence, but he'll be near the front of the line if Grant fucks it up. He's not as supportive about the pining stage they go through, mostly because he's the first person Grant laments to.

Rose - her bestie dating her BROTHER. Disgusted, betrayed, plotting their downfall. Absolutely thinks Jason can do better. She comes around to it faster than Dick only when she's entirely sure she can't do anything about it. Still bullies them both though.

Addie - Well. There are worse options. The real bonus here is her newfound connection with Talia. World's most controlling mother in law, loves Jason like one of her own sons though. Unfortunately that means he gets treated just like her other sons... Quality of the treatment is debatable.

If he's dating Joey -

Slade - Definitely the most upset in this scenario. That's undeniably his favorite kid and Jason... isn't the kind of person he thinks is good enough. Not that he thinks anyone would be. He doesn't go out of his way to drive Jason away per se, but he does put him through the most vigorous "tests". Begrudgingly respects Jason for passing most of them with flying colors.

Addie - Mother hen in law. Planning the wedding since day ONE. What's the equivalent of like, a sister in law but for the mom's of the spouses? Is that a thing? Regardless, she gets very close with Talia very quickly. Bruce Wayne's third biggest hater, she makes his life HELL.

Rose - Better than Grant. Still not happy, but she accepts it more easily. Maid of honor but she swears up and down they're cringe and she hates it. Complains to Dick about it but they're both secretly fond.

Billy - Never booking a hotel without soundproof walls with them again.

raven as an adult wants a relationship with arella, which she was denied as a child, but has conflicted feelings about it especially as arella is distant. joey as an adult wants a relationship with slade, which he was denied as a child, but has conflicted feelings about it especially as slade is distant.

but then for raven, she was denied a relationship with arella for no good reason, and it hurt them both. the conflict she feels is the shadow of trigon, who hurt her mother and who is raven's father (part of her). arella is distant because though she loves raven she doesn't really know her and doesn't know herself because her life for decades has been about her nineteen-year-old trauma and raven still is a reminder of that.

and for joey, he was denied a relationship with slade because slade almost got him killed. like it was for good reason. and adeline (who separated them) gave him explicit love (in a way azar did not give raven). the conflict he feels is the shadow of slade, who hurt him...and grant...and adeline...and tara...and rose...and all the titans...and everyone else he ever murdered...etc. slade is distant because he is a deadbeat dad alsjkfd. like just a regular old deadbeat who might want a relationship with his kids but doesn't want to work for it.

but joey and raven are both in a position as young adults where they are reaching out or trying to reach out to their distant parent and not finding what they want to find. if they even know what they want to find!

and another way that joey and raven are similar is that they grew up not being angry. perfectly behaved children! when i think of raven learning to be angry, i think arella is a perfect first target, because she is a safe person for raven to be angry at (and she is There, unlike azar). for joey, slade is not exactly a safe person to be angry at, because you know, an angry man in your house etc etc. All This To Say. raven and joey, age 20 and 19, where raven is angry at arella and joey is not angry (yet) at slade...the angst of that.

"Nightwing."

Dick froze halfway across a rooftop, the lights and gunshots of Bludhaven disappearing in an instant. A scowl flashed across his face, teeth clenched and bared, before he forced it back. His face smoothed back out and his voice took on a pleasant, amused tone. "Slade. How did you get this frequency?"

"Nevermind that," Slade scolded. "We have more important things that need discussing, and information to be revealed."

"Is this about Constantinople?" He asked with a lilt, propping one hand on his hip. "Because I thought I told you, those geese totally counted as villains and deserved arrest--"

"I found a child vigilante. What do I do with it?"

"Ex-cuse me?" His fist clenched. "Is this a trick question?"

"No."

"What do you mean, 'what do I do with it?' You know what to do with it; you become its nemisis when their 15 and haunted them for the next decade." His voice was thinly-veiled rage. He couldn't stop himself from shaking. That poor kid, Slade has his sights set on them. He's going to torture that kid, or worse, and now I have to track Slade's trail back to wherever he found this kid--

"I can't do that! He's only eight years old!"

"What?"

"There's this eight year old meta brat running around a Mid-West town in his pajamas while adults shoot at him. There isn't a mentor in sight, and one of the kid's rogues has threatened to skin him. What. Do. I. Do?"
