Jason trying to explain poly to Bruce

Jason, at a whiteboard: you see, you and Selina are these two dots, and you are dating *draws a line from one dot to the other*

Bruce: Why are we dots?

Jason: uh, it's just really zoomed out, okay back to this- Roy, Kori, and I are these three dots, and see, there is a line from Kori to me cause we're dating, there is a line from Roy to me cause we're dating, and there is a line between them cause they are dating. We are all dating one another but even then, it is separate relationships coming together to make something else- in this case, a triangle-

Tim, in the background eating popcorn: illuminati confirmed

Jason: Anyway, so even though we all are dating each other separately, just like how you and Selina are dating, our relationships with one another come together to form something new, called a poly relationship-

Dick, still bitter his friend, ex girlfriend, and brother are all dating: no it's called I introduce you all and then you cut me out of the mix to have your own exclusive relationships going on

Bruce: wait, I'm confused, so you are a triangle?

Jason, slapping his forehead: no, the triangle is a metaphor for my poly relationship with Kori and Roy to help you understand what a polyamorous relationship is

Bruce: Jason, I know what a polyamorous relationship is. My parents were in one with Alfred when I was growing up. I just don't understand what that has to do with geometry

Multishippers are so cool because they would just be sitting at their a table chatting while everyone else is fighting over their favorite ships in the background

Damian, to Tim: I feel it is only right to tell you I am pursuing the kent boy.

Damian, nervously: ...and the batson boy.

Tim: Cool, I'm glad they make you happy.

Damian: what? why aren't you shocked!?

Tim: why would I be?

Damian: I'm courting two people at once!

Tim: so? They know about each other, right?

Damian: well, yes, but-

Tim: then that'd be kinda hypocritical, don't you think? With me dating Kon and Bernard and all-

Damian: you are.

Damian: what.

Tim: yes??? You knew this??

Damian, alarmed: I most certainly did not!

Tim: Damian, everyone in this family is poly, It'd be weirder if you were monogamous.

Damian: that can't be right, what about Todd?

Tim: Roy and Starfire.

Damian: Brown and Cain are monogamous-

Tim: with the way they keep chatting up the new intern at Wayne Tech? Please.

Damian: Thomas isn't in a relationship.

Tim: still poly.

Damian: Richard??

Tim: literally married to Wally and Babs, you were at the wedding, Damian? what the fuck??

Damian: Father-

Tim: is dating half the justice league, three villains and your mother, Damian!

Damian:

Damian, realising why that photo of the Wayne's and Alfred looked so romantic: my god.

[kittykatninja321]

they were not lying about the poly vibes in rhato I fear…

[vodrae]

Jason Todd being a theater kid and Roy Harper having a band in canon, and his mother being the Taylor Swift of their world, I will not accept it if you tell me they didn't have a garage band together and some original tapes.

Kori comes from a space spartans society, you can't tell me they didn't beat the shit out of drums and bass when she felt homesick. They were on an island, who gonna complain ? Whales ?

They definitely mastered a "I'm in love with my car" duet.

The way u draw Roy is,,,, *chefs kiss*

One shot suggestion: Dick finding out about joyfire bc him finding out his little brother is dating his EX (and honestly probably his other ex too, let’s be real) IS SO FUNNY

OMG I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!

(also can I just say I also love ur username <3)

This isn't short enough to be a drabble but not exactly too long either, it's 760 words, so make of that what you will. Here it is!

TW: Jason's usual level of swearing but milder

"YOU'RE DATING MY EXES??!"

Dick stood in Jason's doorway at the Manor, eyes wide. This was one of those rare times when Jason was staying here, just for a few days, mostly for Alfred's sake. His friends (or so Dick thought) Roy and Kori had joined him— for reasons unknown.

Dick was... feeling slightly awkward with them being around, Kori more so. He was quite civil, buddies, even, with Roy— after all, they'd only dated for a week or so. But Kori... their relationship had not ended well, at all. But Jason refused to unless his Outlaws did, so Dick let it slide.

He'd gone up to call them down for dinner, at Alfred's bidding, going to Jason's room first... to find Jason sitting on Kori's lap while she cradled him, and Roy french-kissing Jason.

"YOU'RE DATING MY EXES??!" The words tore out of him as he stood with his eyes wide, trying to process what he'd just seen.

Jason turned beet red, suddenly jumping away from the red heads. Kori sat cross-legged, smiling as if nothing had happened, while Roy wore a smug grin.

Dick turned to them, his voice high-pitched with disbelief. "AND YOU ARE DATING MY LITTLE WING?"

"I ain't little, Dickface," Jason scoffed from the corner, looking downright embarrassed.

"I don't see the problem," Kori stood from the bed, towering over all three men. "You and I, or you and Roy are not dating anymore. And we are all adults. And we have the love for each other. Why would we not date?"

A unbelieving sound escaped Dick. He turned to Roy, eyes flaming. "You. I know for a fact how vulgar you get in a relationship. Have you done it with my baby brother?"

From across the room he heard Jason's choked gasp, but he paid it no mind.

"Dude. Your 'baby brother' is 24." Roy shrugged, resting a hand on Dick's shoulder. "Why're you getting so worked up over it?"

"I'm not— no, no, I'm not worked up!" Dick scoffed. He faced Jason, pouting. "You. You stole my exes!"

Finally, Jason managed to get control over his expression and forced a smirk. "Yeah. Maybe they just know who's better."

"Yes, Jason is a much better of the partner than you, Dick," Kori pointed out not-so-helpfully.

Roy finally registered Dick's bloodthirsty expression and backed away, hands lifted. "Whoa, hey, man, chill. Seriously."

"I am chill," Dick snapped, glaring at him. He turned back to Jason, who was clearly trying to appear cool and intimidating, and pointed an accusing finger. "You have so much to explain. But right now Alfred wants you all down for dinner."

Then he left the trio without a word.

A bit after dinner, Dick finally found Jason alone in the library, reading some book titled 'Jane Eyre'.

"Jason." Dick walked towards him, expression a forced calm. "I am... sorry about how I reacted earlier."

Jason looked up from his book, an eyebrow raised. "No, you're not."

"No, I'm not," Dick agreed, sitting beside his brother. "How could you not tell me?"

"I didn't tell the rest of the Bat-cult either. You're not special." Jason leaned back, carefully placing a bookmark in the book before putting it aside.

Dick took this as a sign that Jason wanted to talk. "Jaybird... I'm your big brother, you know I love you, right?"

Jason looked away, muttering something that sounded like a mix of "Fuck off" and "Yeah, I know."

"It's just... If you'd told me, yeah, I might have freaked out at first. But I just want you to be happy, in the end. And if you're happy with my exes..." Dick sighed. "I guess I'll just have to live with it."

Jason turned back to his brother, glaring slightly. "Stop calling them your exes. That's my girlfriend and boyfriend you're talking about."

Dick winced. "Yeah. Sorry, sorry, I just... Do you just have a thing for redheads? You had that schoolboy crush on Babs when you were, like, 13. You were dating Artemis of Bana-Mighdall. And now you're dating Roy and Kori."

Jason scoffed. "You're one to talk. You've dated Babs, Kori, Roy, Wally West... Do I really have to go on?"

Dick chuckled, laying an arm around Jason's shoulders. "Guess it runs in the family, huh?"

"We're adopted, asshole," Jason grumbled, but leaned into Dick's touch.

After a long beat of silence, Jason spoke up again. "I also dated Rose Wilson for a while. She is not a redhead."

An amused laugh escaped Dick, and he ruffled Jason's hair lovingly. "Yeah, yeah."

"Do we know who sired Todd's pup?" Pup Brother asks warily as he ferries back the nesting pillows just a little awkwardly. It takes him a few trips to get them all, but Jason doesn't mind. There's no rush.

"He hasn't said," Grandpa says.

"Surely we should inquire, then," Pup Brother says. "It seems . . . important."

"Damian, you and Bruce are literally the only people in this pack living with any kind of a blood relative," Loud Sister tells him wryly. "Except for Jason and the baby now, I guess. And also that is a super-rude kind of question to ask somebody who's in feral drop anyway."

"Well, they could be someone dangerous," Pup Brother grumbles. "Or a civilian, in which case they would need to be retrieved as soon as possible."

"Retrieved?" Little Brother asks with a frown. "Why?"

"They would not be safe outside the manor," Pup Brother says. "The sire of the first pups of our pack's next generation would be a valuable target for our enemies."

". . . okay, good point there," Little Brother mutters as he and Loud Sister both wince. "Uh, Jason? Who'd you spend your last heat with?"

"Mine," Jason says, contentedly fluffing the new layer of pillows in his nest.

". . . your what, exactly?" Loud Sister tries.

"Mine," Jason repeats, really more absorbed in the process of nest-building than anything else. They can talk once his nest is done, he figures. "My . . . mmmmm. My sun. And my arsenal."

"Please don't mean a Kryptonian when you say 'sun'," Little Brother mutters under his breath. "Or an assassin when you say 'arsenal'."

"I love them," Jason replies in satisfaction, and lays down another blanket. This one smells like Grandpa. It's so nice.

"Oh wow, Jason just actually admitted an emotional attachment willingly and in cold blood and without triggering the pit," Loud Sister says, her eyes wide. "Yeah, okay, we reaaaaally shouldn't have asked about the sire."

"No, Damian's right," Little Brother says, shaking his head. "This is important. They could be in danger. Or, uh, planning to attack us. Depending. Are your sun and your arsenal civilians, Jason?"

Jason laughs.

That's such a funny question.

"They're gonna burn down Gotham for me," he says dreamily.

"Not the most reassuring answer but noted," Little Brother says. "Are they going to burn it down with, I don't know, specifically heat vision?"

Jason laughs again.

"I'm just gonna call Kon real quick," Little Brother says, pulling out his phone.

"Isn't he an omega?" Loud Sister asks doubtfully.

"Yeah, but Supergirl's an alpha," Little Brother says. "And, relatedly, so is Power Girl."

Jason takes a moment to think about Power Girl. Just, like . . . as a person and everything. And as an experience.

He purrs.

". . . yeah, definitely call Kon," Loud Sister says, half-eyeing him for some reason.

Little Brother calls.

Steph: What's the worst part of Valentine's Day?

Jason: Whenever we go out to eat at a fancy restaurant, we can't hold each other's hands, cause people think we are having a séance

Tim: to be fair, if you saw 3 people, all holding hands in a circle, sitting around a candle lit table, wouldn't you be suspicious

Jason: no, I'd mind my own business. If I wanna hold Roy and Kori's hands, then I should be able to, and if they wanna hold each other's hands, they should be able to, and if we wanna summon a ghost cause our food is taking forever to get out, then we should be able to

These poly vibes are so strong with these guys

[theforgottendaydreamer]

Hello sister

I want to eat your art.

Could you bless me by giving some jayroy/joyfire?

✨️

Aaw thanks!!!

I haven’t done digital in forever but here are some warm up sketches from earlier!!

[ti-girl1226]

I could imagine reader being like adopt by Jason’s due to them meeting in the league of assassins and Jason taking after Bruce and seeing a child who needs care and being like mine now F off to all of you. But they’d definitely get split up due to Jason’s revenge plan and them being in the league Soo they reunite and I’d just be like

reader after making him breakfast and sitting in the kitchen. Roy Starfire and Jay walking out of jays bedroom then going full alert and maybe shoot an arrow or throw something at reader and reader just dodged it. And in a somewhat shaken voice “i made breakfast” Jason then recognized the voice and almost cried. He had a lot of explaining to do to his partners but they eventually kinda all adopt them as there kid. And then one day just during a mission plan or something like that where the entire Batfam and the outlaws all huddled together and the reader just does like a Damian style magical pop up that nobody expected. The rest of the bat fam minus Damian react but the outlaws just sigh

Roy: we told you not to be here. Know look what you’ve done

reader: you were going to have to tell them at some point and I brought coffee be great full I could have left you sleep deprived. Starfire: thank you for the coffee but Roy is right you shouldn’t have done that

reader turning to Jason: your roots are Showing

Que panic grabbing of hair trying to see before Roy points out oh she’s right wait is that ginger! Before Jason runs to the nearest bathroom only to find black hair dye already there placed neatly on the counter and a post it not saying “I know I’m your favorite kid.” I just love something like this I need more

ps- reader isn’t the favorite kid and they know it it’s a joke that they do because everyone’s favorite is Lian she’s even the readers favorite

[vodrae]

The sole reason I'm ready to ship joyfire is imagining a whole squad of ginger being an international menace.
