in brightest day

relating to jason todd while being a csa survivor is just having to fight one billion people every day for so many different reasons its genuinely exhausting

my least favorite trope in superhero stories is “superhero who has proven themselves dedicated to peace gets framed for murder and the cops immediately believe it” like damn are you guys stupid? its a sort of subset of the “miscommunication/misunderstanding” trope that truly just gets on my nerves

something something bruce seeming to have the most fondness and exhibiting the most emotion for jason after he’s dead something something his idea of the perfect victim shattering when jason comes back angry and sharp on all his edges and rough and hot-blooded something something bruce having the most contempt for jason in life when he breaks out of a premade mold and how its almost like dying smoothed over all the gaps and cracks that made bruce the angriest something something bruce maybe found it more agreeable when he had a tragic angry dead thing to mourn instead of what came back

looking for recs on chronological post crisis dc reading orders that are less superman heavy .. ive found a “best 100” post-crisis reading list but its so superman heavy and im already planning a separate superman read-through later

i’ve got a jason todd playlist that does genuinely make me cry every time i listen to it and eventually it WILL translate to a real legitimate finished fanfic. trust and believe.

deciding i actually really like dc multiverse storylines if only so i can feel unguiltified by doing gayboy clark kent selfshipping AND maintain my stance that clois is the best superman ship
