Danny: Are you aware Bruce Wayne has a thing for you?

Clark: What? No way he does.

Danny: Yeah, why do you think he’s glaring at me right now? He’s jealous of how much I’ve been chatting with you.

Clark: He always looks like that.

Danny: No, he doesn’t. Everyone knows Bruce Wayne is the friendliest most prince charming man around! And that, is not the look of Gotham’s Prince.

Clark: Oh yeah….I forget people think that about him….

Danny: Pardon?

Clark: Nevermind. Look, Bruce does not have feelings for me.

Danny: *sigh* I guess it’s going to be a long difficult road of love for Mr.Wayne.

Meanwhile across the gala hall:

Dick: Sheesh, B. Reel it in. The guy is going to notice.

Bruce: Oh no, was I being obvious?

Tim: Extremely. Literally every time he looked over here, you were staring.

Bruce: Blast!

Jason: If it makes you feel better, only those who know you would know that is the face you make when you have a crush. Everyone else would think you’re planning their downfall.

Bruce: What? Really?

Damian: Yes, Father. It’s a bad habit. Your face loses all emotions, like the edge of a freshly sharpened blade, whenever you stare at those you are infatuated with. My mother found it attractive, but she was raised to be a killer all her life. That man is likely terrified.

Bruce: What am going to do!? He just makes me so nervous I panic!

Dick: Just, calm down and go talk to Mr. Fenton! Its not like you have no experience- Damian is living proof of that

Bruce: He was an accident!

Damian: Why do you forsaken me, Father?

Bruce: Sorry. I mean, look everyone else I’ve been with has always been physical only or connected in some way to my night job. Never has it been about feelings and a civilian. Especially Clark’s childhood friend.

Steph: Can I offer some advice?

Bruce: Please

Steph: Stop bing a bitch and go talk to him before another fine piece of ass steals him away.

Cass: Well said, well said.

Bruce: I- okay I’ll talk to him.

Tim: Looking like that?

Bruce: What’s wrong with my outfit?!

Tim: Your clothes are fine. Its your face. B you look like your about to grab brace knuckles and break his face.

Dick: I can hear the fight music

Jason: *waery sigh* We’re never getting a step parent. We’ll be half orphans for the rest of our lives.

Damian: Its a shame. I could have gotten that man at the alter weeks ago.

Dick: Oh? How?

Damian: Simple. Watch. *screams* MY LEG. MY LEG. HELP. I ACCIDENTALLY STABBED MYSELF WITH MY STEAK KNIFE.

Danny pushing theough the gathering crowd: I’m a doctor! Let me through!

Damian muttering: When he comes over here to stop my bleeding you invite him to dinner as a thank you, Father. The rest of you, get a form of contact to take him out to dinner for saving your baby brother and then plan encounters in public. We’re going to make him want kids.

Tim: You absolute mad lad, this is a great idea.

Bruce: NO!? WHY DID YOU STAB YOURSELF?!

Dick: Now hold on, B. This could work. Thats how Damian helped me and Kori get together.

Bruce: WHAT?!

Damian: They call me Knife Cupid for a reason Father. I’m seven for seven in success rates.

Bruce: You’ve done this SEVEN TIMES?!

yall ever heard about the wave

???? like the thing you do at sport events??

no, i mean this social experiment started by a history teacher in calofornia in 1967

im Intrigued 

it’s creepy not so much like paranormal but as in it’s a scary look at human nature. hang on a sec ill explain it

alright so. in 1967, a new history teacher at Cubberly High School in Northern California named Ron Jones was teaching his class about the Holocaust and Hitler’s rise to power. At some point during the lesson, many of his students began to ask why the rest of Germany had stood by and done nothing, and how afterwards they could have said they didn’t know. Many said that they would never allow something like that to happen, but most simply couldn’t understand how the population had allowed it back then. This made Ron curious: what was the answer? Why had so many Germans joined and tolerated the Nazis as their neighbors were dragged away? He realized there was no way of knowing, not without being there, and certainly no way of teaching it - unless, maybe, they could experience something similar. 

The next day, Ron came in and began to command his class differently than usual. He had stricter rules, making students stand when asking or answering questions and having them fix their posture. He said it was a lesson on discipline and the phrase “strength through discipline” was written on the board. 

The students, shockingly responded positively to the stricter rules; it was as if they had just been waiting for this and wanted more. They worked as a team and answered questions correctly, even sitting quietly until Ron dismissed them at the end of class. 

In the next two days, the phrases “strength through community” and “action” appeared on the board. Ron announced to the class that their new rules and ideas were now the cornerstones of the group called the Wave. Their mottos were the three phrases on the board, and he introduced them to a salute (made by curling one’s right hand into the shape of a wave and tapping one’s left shoulder with it). The kids practiced both the motto and the salute that day.

Everything was going well in this experiment: Ron was increasingly seen as an incredibly important leader, the kids were being more well behaved, they were ahead in their studies, all good things, so Ron decided to continue the Wave. In class, he gave the students Wave membership cards, some of which had red x’s on the back. The x’s indicated that those people were to monitor the other members of the Wave and report directly to Ron if someone broke a rule. 

Additionally that day, Ron gave the instruction to recruit members to the Wave; all were invited and all were equal in the Wave.

And recruit they did.

Later that week, there were over 200 members of the Wave. The pep rally became an official Wave rally where dozens of new members were sworn in. As the group grew, most everyone joined. However, if someone did not join, they were likely to find themselves very alone and possibly being threatened or hurt by Wave members. 

By the 5th day, Ron knew things had spiraled out of control. He had grown into a mythical leader, and the students carried out his orders without hesitation, even if these orders never existed in the first place and were grown from within the Wave. He decided to tell the students that there would be a televised announcement of the Wave’s candidate announcement for the presidential election, and that all members should attend the rally later that day. 

When they arrived, the hundreds of students were greeted with a blank screen and Ron. He told them the true nature of the Wave; how it had been born as an experiment that had grown exponentially until he had to end it. The students were shocked, and some even cried. They had all believed in the Wave wholeheartedly after just 5 short days.

The Wave is terrifying because it is real. Not so long ago, a history teacher fresh out from college was able to turn a school into a military state in just 5 days. We as humans are so easily led into fascist dictatorships and we so rarely question what goes on around us. The Wave is a testament to that, and a scary one.

There’s a really great German film of the same name (“Die Welle” - The Wave) based on this experiment - rather than stopping after 5 days however, the teacher lets it continue and things get much, MUCH worse. It’s a terrifying movie, but fascinating too.

HOLD UP

WERE Y’ALL NOT MADE TO READ THIS BOOK IN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL WHEN LEARNING WORLD HISTORY BECAUSE IT WAS REQUIRED READING IN MINE

I went to school where they taught us slavery wasn’t the cause of the civil war they weren’t gonna teach me shit

For those who are just looking at an unsourced paragraph it seems to be well documented.

I need an entire comic mini series from the perspective of the Bludhaven Police Department every time Red Hood is brought up or even there in person


Cop: Man that Red Hood guy is really making a name for himself. It’s pretty impressive how quickly he’s risen to power, actually.


Dick: (already annoyed at Jason because he won’t return Dick’s favorite hoodie) Don’t even give him that kind of credit. A crime lord deserves no praise.


Another cop: Yeah, I’m just glad the crazy bastard isn’t here. That piece of shit should be locked up forever.


Dick: (getting defensive now because that IS his little brother) He’s still a person, Jerry! Even if he is a criminal you shouldn’t talk about him like that! He’s trying his best!


The rest of the precinct: ????


The infamous Red Hood has been brought in to the Bludhaven Police Department for questioning after being found running operations in their city. Surprisingly, Officer Grayson insisted that he be the one to question him. (Jason let himself get caught on purpose)


Dick: Alright, you low life piece of trash! You’re gonna answer my questions quickly so we can both get on with our days! (They both agreed to be at family dinner at the manor tonight)


Jason: Sorry, I don’t speak swine.


Dick: YOU KNOW WHAT- (leaps over the table)


The other cops find Officer Grayson and Red Hood in a wrestling/slap fight on the ground

i remember seeing a tik tok aboht jason being arrested by d!ck and i couldn’t stop thinking about the comedic potential batfam dick grayson jason todd nightwing red hood headcanon batbros dc
