Why Thalia, Percy, And Nico Should Be The Little 3 Instead Of Percy, Nico, And Jason

So I just re blogged a post that made me think about this.

All the batboys look more like their moms than their fathers in some way.

Tim and Jason HATE IT with a burning passion. Both for different reasons of course. Tim (as the post that inspired this) is hauntingly beautiful. Just like his mother was and he is so thankful he wasn’t born a girl because he knows he would hate his looks even more than he does now.

Jason literally died because of her, she sold him off to the joker for a chance to escape. This man has MOTHER ISSUES in the biggest block letters you can imagine. Dick made the mistake of saying “she’s obviously who you get your good looks from.” And Jason refused to speak to him for weeks.

Dick will never admit it but he’s forgotten what his parents looked like before they died, he says he looks like the perfect mix of both of them when in reality he’s his mothers carbon copy and he just doesn’t remember it.

Damian is the child that actually looks like a perfect mix of his parents. He looks like a young Bruce but when standing next to Talia a lot of people would say he just looks like a masculine version of her. He takes pride in it and secretly loves it when Bruce makes a comment like “you look so much like your mom when you make that face.”

Bruce knows he looks like his mom, he just refuses to admit it. For years after she died he would see himself in the mirror and see her and it physically pained him. Now when he looks in the mirror, he sees Damian.

Annabeth Chase in the new show acts like a cryptid. And I love her for that. Appearing out of the shadows, stalking Percy. She is THE weird tween girl. I cherish her with my whole heart.

slamming my head against a wall again and again and again and again

just imagine the batkids telling Bruce he’s delulu

Kon: Tim...remember your principles...

Tim: I don't have principles, Batman has principles, and I follow them because I have daddy issues.

Kon: Then, remember Batman's principles..?

Tim: Man, fuck Batman!

Does Batman have special training to knock out that urge to correct someone when they say incorrect stuff?

The Bats are paranoid and keep secrets. They can keep a secret identity and avoid people's questions. When the person outright believes something wrong, though? That's when it gets tricky. Is there just a few months of training where Bruce claims incorrect things about the Robin and they have to not correct him? He'll just randomly state it midpatrol to try to catch them off guard while they struggle.

Possible phrases Bruce has used.

Dick- "You're an excellent acrobat, but you couldn't land a quadruple backflip on the first try."

Jason - "Jane Austen isn't your favorite writer, right?"

Tim - "Zesti sucks."

Steph - "You don't know how to play piano."

Damian - "Animals suck."

Duke - "You tend to follow the law."

i know the CEO tim thing isn't real in canon but it's so fucking funny to me to think about lex luthor showing up to WE all like "time to meet up with brucie wayne" and instead he meets the worlds most unhinged 17 year old.

not romantic or sexual or platonic but a secret fourth thing (we've spent so many years as enemies fighting each other we know each other's combat styles inside and out so now that we're teaming up against a common enemy we fight flawlessly together in sync).

Tim Drake is the fraze "never meet your heroes" in human form
