i do very much like the idea of jason being that responsible-irresponsible kind of older brother. like. he fits that kind of vibe, y'know? he knows he cant stop drugs from being dealt in the alley but he still cares about people so he just makes sure that no kids are involved and people have access to drugs in the safest avenue. i bet he's also like that as a brother.

he gives damian his first ever joint. not because he wants damian to smoke weed, but at 13 and starting his rebellious phase, jason would rather damian experiment in a safe environment with somebody trusted, like him. he did the same with tim and edibles.

tim and druke are allowed to drink at jason's apartment. they know if they ask politely jason will let them raid his fridge for beer, and the scandalised expression dick wore when all the siblings went to jason's place for post-patrol wind-downs and the kids instantly went to grab a pint unopposed was priceless. jason has it framed.

when bruce decided it was time to teach tim how to drive he was treated to a 25 minute expert speedrun around the backstreets of gotham without any hesitation until tim finally admited '.....yeah so actually i got given a couple driving lessons by jason.'

'when?!' bruce demands, baffled and slightly shaken by the driving style. he'd been hanging onto the ceiling for the past five minutes.

'like. i dunno. two years ago? it was around christmas.'

'two ye- WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HE WAS ALIVE BACK THEN!? YOU WERE LETTING THE RED HOOD GIVE YOU DRIVING LESSONS BACK WHEN WE THOUGHT HE WAS A RANDOM MURDERER?'

'well he caught me in bristol trying to joyride one of my mother's cars and said he 'had the responsibility of showing me the ropes'... of course i didn't get what he meant fully until i found out he was my brother, but it was still helpful.'

just jason being the irresponsible but still carefully supervising older brother that the younger ones adore and that stresses the Absolute Fuck out of helicopter parent bruce.

i'm glad people are getting what i was going for here cause this is something i REALLY wanted to focus on in a fic about the relationship between Morgan and David.

literally the FIRST thing we learn about their relationship is that he gave Morgan her lighter. and that it's gaudy and tasteless and overly expensive. but Morgan kept it. she uses it constantly. it's like, one of her most iconic props.

and David's final act in life is giving Morgan his daughter. and his daughter happens to be the most advanced android on the planet, her value incomprehensibly big. and while she uses this value as an excuse to protect her, Morgan never seriously considers selling Serra. she keeps her, and values her.

it's only two examples but it so clearly establishes a pattern. that this is a THING between the two of them. David constantly giving Morgan extravagant gifts and her pretending she doesn't like them but quietly keeping them and valuing them. so yeah that's something i really wanted in there and i'm glad it came across like i intended

"i'll pay the fine" is my favorite recurring line in of the Devil cause it encapsulates SO succinctly how any law that incurs a fine just doesn't exist for anyone who's wealthy enough. Morgan is CONSTANTLY incurring fines because she just doesn't care about following the law. obviously she's breaking the law when she's out killing people but it really shows that even in her daily "I'm totally a normal citizen" life she disrespects authority in any way she can get away with. she's not even that wealthy so this is probably where ALL of her disposable income goes. she lives frugally and pays her bills on time and all the surplus money is just "this is how much i can legally break the law this month" it's incredible to me.

"please help me budget this" "stop spending so much on the fine" "no"

flicking back through my procreate library what the fuck was this

so many characters with potential to be aromantic bisexual and yet so few exist. write more aro-bi characters you cowards.

it is. sincerely really weird that 2016 nostalgia is a trend. like i knew this day would come but not for specifically 2016. the meme that year was about how this was the worst year ever for most people

instead of "aromantics can still date," take a moment to consider phrases like:

and likewise, instead of "asexuals can still have sex," take a moment to consider phrases like:

Edit of the variety that I always have to add to posts like these, apparently: This is a post about real-life aromantics and real-life asexuals, not fictional characters. "Aromantics can still date" and "asexuals can still have sex" are things that real aromantics and asexuals get told all the time, regardless of whether we've expressed a desire not to have these things. If your first thought seeing this post was "ah, this must be about shipping a-spec characters," then please reread it again with the knowledge that it's actually about a topic that directly impacts real a-specs in real life. The way fandoms treat a-spec characters does matter, but not more than society's treatment of real a-spec people, and certainly not to the extent that so many people should assume that every post about a-spec issues is actually about shipping!

They’re very supportive

AHHHH SHE LOOKS SO PRETTY
