Grace: *Retroactively freaking out about Doing A Misogyny™*

Radio: playing Baby shark

B: Robin, why is the radio playing Baby Shark. Turn it off.

Damian: I can't Father

B: what do you mean you can't?

Damian: Drake told Grayson that if he wanted to listen to shit music, then he could listen to shit music, and hacked into the batmobile radio so it will only play Baby Shark.

B: then just turn off the radio?

Damian: We cannot. He hacked that too.

B: I hate all of you

Humans are predators right? But in our day to day lives we don’t really act like predators very often. Very few of us actually have an experience with hunting, with one exception; bugs. Especially flies or mosquitoes.

Imagine you board a ship and all of your crew mates are life forms from other planets, all of them just so happen to be prey. You’re an engineer and general aren’t seen as very threatening. You’re the first human the crews ever had on board so they have no reason to think you would be. That is until somehow a fly gets onto your ship.

It’s meal time and this fly just will not stop bothering you. No one else seems to be doing anything so you decide to be the one to kill it. You go dead still and track it with your eyes, watching to see where it lands. Once it does you move slowly until your hand is directly above it, holding your breath before slamming your hand down. Finally the pesky bug is gone and you can go back to eating. To you it’s no big deal. I mean it’s just killing one bug right? But when you look up after rubbing the dead fly off the table with your shirt, everyone’s staring at you with a look of shock, horror, or fear.

After a minute or two everyone seems to unfreeze and go back to what they were doing, still nervously glancing over their shoulders at you every minute or so.

After that your crew mates seem to always be slightly on edge around you. Listening to you more often than before, and letting you lead in situations where violence might need to be resorted too. While it’s not technically your job on explorations, you in no way mind being able to protect your crew.

like if i recall, jason and roy only interacted once before jason died and what later would be when people ship them. how is that grooming? do people not know what grooming is anymore? lemme get an online definition so im not yelled at.

“Grooming describes the preparatory (or ‘lead up’) stage of child sexual abuse that offenders use to gain the trust and compliance of the child or young person (and those around them) and to establish secrecy and silence to avoid disclosure. Grooming may occur in person (contact grooming) or online.”

“Child sexual grooming is a complex, deceptive process—one that often masquerades as trust-building or mentorship until it’s far too late.”

so like how did roy groom jason? because they only interacted once perviously and they did not keep in touch, no relationship was built, no actual trust earned, no manipulative process..

just say you dont like the ship, thats fine, but theres no need to make shit up and demonize something bc you dont like it.

jayroy as a ship primarily takes place when they are both grown adults (obviously excluding the outliers) but other than that, they are 2 grown ass (FICTIONAL) men, let people be.

if you do want to yell about grooming and such, go yell at the REAL PEOPLE that groom REAL CHILDREN everyday, stop getting mad at people for having FICTIONAL CHARACTERS do what you dont like when REAL PEOPLE are doing those things EVERY SINGLE DAY ALL OVER THE WORLD.

too many damn fish to fucking fry and youre focusing on some random fucking bullshit? lock the fuck in

i think thats everything *thinking monkey image*
