#5 Rose Wilson and Edward Bloomberg

I'm going to make every other Teen Titans blog hate me by saying I think the Geoff Johns run is probably the second best Titans run? After the one year Timeskip basically the team is whittled down to the bottom of the barrel, Kid Devil and Rose being the only one who stayed. Rose is in many ways a foil to Terra, but unlike Terra who is defined by her misanthropy and aloneness Rose is just a character who is desperate to belong somewhere.

Nowhere is this more apparent in Rose and Eddie's relationship. Eddie is the one person who seems happy to have her around. THey share a lot in common, Eddie is a kidsent essentially to live away from his parents, and lost his aunt who was the only family member who overtly cared for him. Eddie feels like a nobody and feels lost just like Rose, he wanted to be a hero so badly he made a deal with the devil for superpowers. He only made it onto the Teen Titans because they were desperate for new members.

Their relationship is very teenage first love, but that's exactly what the Teen Titans are all about people with nowhere to go finding a home in each other. Eddie is also the best thing Geoff Johns ever came up with, he's so likable in the comic he loses all of his super powers and the team keeps him around anyway because they can't function without him. Eddie and Rose are just also... so teenagery. Rose pulls stupid stunts for attention all the time and has a stupid fake bad girl act. Eddie throws a party in the tower once and gets in trouble. They act like the dumbest teens.

#4 Donna Troy and Roy Harper

They're soulmates, DC just doesn't know it yet. Donna and Roy are sort of a first love who connect later in life, in the original Teen Titans Comic Donna was the only girl among several boys, so eventually she started to have a first love sort of crush on Roy. They go on to live seperate lives, have pretty disastrous first relationships.

They are just really compatible characters. I think what a lot of people don't understand about Roy, is that he's actually a pretty idealistic hero, a chivalrous nice boy type, he just had a really rough spot in the middle of his life. He has a really negative self image, but Roy actually represents the same kind of optimistic hero that Oliver represents. He would treat Donna right. Roy is also one of the few characters who has never treated Donna like a therapist friend. Lian also just loves her.

Roy and Donna also have a lot of trauma from their early twenties, which I think could help them understand each other. One ig thing about Donna is that a lot of her friends tend to put her on a pedestal and see her as "perfect" when she's actually really messy and flawed and Roy being Roy and emotionally intelligent could understand Donna in a way they can't. Also Donna and Roy have the vibes of that on again off again couple that will always be a little in love with each other.

#3 Dick / Kory

This is a dickbabs hating zone . (This is a joke please don't send me anons). I always preach that Dick should be a Titans character not a bat family character, because the Titans is where he grew up.

Kory is such a huge part of who the person Dick Grayson is now, because Batman taught Dick not to feel, and use his emotions as a weapon against crime, whereas Kory taught Dick to love life part and his loved ones and the people around him are what he should be fighting for.

Kory and Dick are like, the soap opera ship. They are just all about the highs and lows of love. Kory just kind of crashed into Dick's life and changed him because she was so unlike anyone he ever met, and Dick is the first person who gave Kory a home on earth and what ties her to the planet she's fighting for. They esentially grew up together, from a teenage first love, to a more adult relationship.

There's a lot of baggage with the relationship, but I also think Kory knows Dick Grayson the best because his time with the Titans helped Dick Grayson find out who he is outside of Batman and Robin and grow up into his own person. In fact that might be the problem with them, that they know each other so well, and are so important to each other's lives, when they break up it kind of hurts too much to lose that person.

#2 Beast Boy / Raven

I've never seen a ship more love it or hate it. You either really love Beast Boy and Raven and think they're soul mates, or you despise them. I think a lot of comics fan don't like it because it comes from the cartoon... but like comic books adapt things from cartoons and non-comics media all the time. If it weren't for BTAS we wouldn't have Harley Quinn.

Also, I can justify Beast Boy being attracted to Raven in the comics. Beast Boy's only significant other relationship is Terra, and Terra and Raven are the same person. (I refuse to elaborate on this unless you send me another ask). I like to compare Beast Boy and Raven to Dick and Kory a lot, because Dick and Kory is kind of the sweeping romantic relationship of two people who are just so in love with each other.

Beast Boy and Raven are kind of the opposite of that, they are not the pride and prejudgice couple, they are the two weird unpopular kids in class. I think what connects them more than anything else is their loneliness as they are both essentially orphans who have become superheroes and superhero teams are the only family they have now, and that kind of desire for a place to belong can draw two people too each other. They're the two weird kids who hang out together exclusively because no one else likes them and their closeness comes from the time they spend together.

Why would Raven be attracted to Beast Boy? Raven and Beast Boy have kind of the same big sweeping ideas about love. I think part of what attracted Beast Boy so much to Terra is how isolated on the team she was, and how she was really the only kid his own age, and how many walls she puts up. Beast Boy is kind of just naturally the guy who wants to give you support and be your friend. Raven on the other hand is really unfamiliar with emotions and love, she desperately wants to have normal relationships, but there is no version of her character who ever lets herself be happy. You have the girl who always tries to be alone, and the guy who wants to keep her company.

#1 Bruce Wayne and Harley Quinn

If you read Batman: White Knight then you would get it!!! A lot of people don't really like the idea of shipping Harley with men because she tries to revolve her personality around the men in her life. INCORRECT. She tries to revolve her personality on pleasing anyone regardless of gender. Harley is a chameleon. She changes her colors to fit whoever, always chasing the idea of someone loving her for who she really is, and yet always afraid to present her real self to people.

It's the most insane and unlikely ship ever, but it really works if you think about it. Like, once again read the comic. Bruce had a lot of respect for who Harleen Quinzel was as a doctor. They both have a deep understanding of losing their previous self to the trauma, Bruce will never be fully comfortable as Bruce Wayne, Harley can't really go back to being Harleen Quinzel. They both almost prefer being their costumed self, but their costumed self actually only hurts them in the long run, Batman is unhealthy for Bruce, Harley is unhealthy for Harleen.

Batman's entire character revolves around saving people in Gotham, not killing them he wants to heal the crimminals of Gotham and Harley herself is a doctor who tried to heal people too and lost their way. They both really need to integrate their past selves, their costumed identities, and their current selves into a fully integrated personality. They're both incredibly high empathy individuals, they basically bleed with empathy for other people, it literally drives Harley insane.

I like Batcat, but also Selina is never going to commit ever. Bruce is kind of scared of committment too, but he actually wants and needs to have things in his life besides Batman, he wants to build a home and have a family to come home too. That's just not going to be Selina, if anything Selina is more comfortable staying Catwoman forever because she's all about her freedom and agency.
