Lalala, I didn’t do anything, lalala, I’m innocent. I did draw this though.

Dick: “Yeah, but we expect this kind of stuff from Jason. Not you. You’re the good one.”

Tim: “What? How am I the good one?”

Dick: “Well, it’s definitely not me.”

Damian: “What?”

Tim: “How is it not you?”

Jason: “All I know is that I’m the bad one.”

Damian: “No, I’m the bad one. Wait, do you mean bad kid or bad Robin? There’s a difference.”

Jason: “What’s that?”

Damian: “Well, I’m obviously the bad Robin. I killed people.”

Jason: “So have I, you’re not special.”

Damian: “But I’m the only Robin who killed someone while wearing the suit.”

Dick: *side-eyes Jason*

Jason: *looks directly at the wall, whistling innocently*

Tim: “Are we missing something here?”

Dick, completely ignoring him: “Anyway, that’s not the point of this. Tim is the good kid.”

Tim: “How?”

Dick: “You’re the only one of us who hasn’t killed someone.”

Damian: *stares at him*

Jason: *stares at him*

Dick: *looks anywhere but at his brothers*

Damian: “...Wait a second, when did you—”

Jason: “Who the fuck did you kill?”

Dick: *looks at Tim*

Tim: *shrugs*

Dick: “You, uh... you might want to sit down, Jay—”

OKAY CRACKHEADS, I KNOW Y'ALL SAW MY POST THE OTHER DAY ABOUT THE BART FIC COMING UP THAT'S VITAL TO MY HAPPINESS, AND I'M HERE TO UPDATE YOU ON DETAILS AND FIRST CHAPTER SHOULD BE UP BY TONIGHT STAY TUNED.

Basically my idea in the 3 AM notes was a teenage Bart Allen being just an absolute havoc to Central City and being brought into the station after doin' teenage dilinquent (but not really) stuff. The steriotypical spray painting stuff, skateboarding places he shouldn't, breaking into government property out of sheer boredom. That kinda stuff. Barry being absolutely fed up with him (ANGST) but it's also like a wholesome Bart is in the Rogues family. (Hartley and David are texting back and fourth like "Bart's in the station again" and "omw kiss emoji", classics like that.)

So feral sarcastic Bart + the rogues, featuring Barry being absent in Bart's life like usual and Wally is still an asshole.

Hartley and Cold are together, and I'm working it out to where Hart is still in the rogues and he was on board all along, not just to backstab them. Bart having a relationship with his brothers, Thad and Owen, and him subtly shielding the rogues when needed so they aren't caught by Flash.

Wally and Linda are together, obvi, Barry and Iris, a given. Maybe work in some ships with the rogues. I Hope y'all enjoy this trope as much as I've loved writing a bunch of these scenes.

Lucifer: Do you want to hear something that's going to ruin your day?

Azazel: What?

Lucifer: If we took all familial relationships seriously, Jack would be your brother and your grandson. Which makes Jack Sam's uncle and my great-grandson as well as my biological child.

Azazel: Honestly, I thought I was the creepiest villain but you're really winning that position right now.

Lucifer: Thanks

So, while I agree with you that the fandom often writes Bart a tad bit to extremely ooc, I don't think using his early days in the Impulse comics is a good indicator of this. He went through a lot of character growth just in those comics alone, not to mention in the 2003 Teen Titans.

Of course! I’ve been talking a lot more recently on his early days because I’ve been re-reading all the impulse comics. He goes through a lot and he comes out on top, that at least never changes.

I don’t mind most fandom written versions of him, actually. I think the people out there that focus on Bart, staying true to his character while also expanding who he is is a great thing! Heck, I have plenty of my own headcanons on him, as you could probably tell from my… everything on my page. Haha 😅

Impulse comics and everything throughout was definitely his peak nearing the end of his series, even the issues of him taking on the Flash mantle and learning what it is about the legacy. (He’s not impressed and I don’t blame him). I just wish they’d let him have good relations in his life more, friends and family, without making them leave his life abruptly and almost as soon as he gets that close to them. It’s happened. Every. Time.

As for the 2003 edition of Titans, he’s definitely different and adverse from his earlier years, that’s for sure. And perhaps the writers at DC went a bit OOC too with his change of costume, and the whole fiasco about “curing” his autism- totally WRONG and UGH. I guess I like a lot of his aspects in it but those ones feel like a different character. Yeah, everyone grows up at some point, but it’s one thing to develop and another thing to rewrite them.

Tired of people saying he's a sweetheart, Bartholemew Henry Allen the 2nd is a dickhead in his soul and THATS why we love him

I laughed so hard drawing this no way the quality is any decent

HAHAHAHA I FUCKING CAN’T XD

We all know how Draco and Harry get when paired together in Potions. Well, I want to see them get paired together in Divination. Their foretelling mainly consists of them competing in who will divine a more gruesome death to the other. 

Trelawney is so impressed by their clairvoyance that they remain partnered for the rest of the year.

ListEn y’all, my best friend got me into this ship so I blame @piedpipersupremacy for this.

WE ARE SLEEPING ON HARTLEY x SNART

Hartley is canonically Gay and Snart is canonically Bi.

In this house, we live laugh love Hartley, but if y’all know his character from like the 90s to now, him dating a cop really just doesn’t make sense?? Like we KNOW he supports ACAB and defund the police campaigns. This mans is a socialist justice protester and he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty to fight for civil rights. HE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATING A POLITICAL CAMPAIGNER BECAUSE OF HIS FUCKED POLICIES I MEAN COME ON!!

He’s as morally grey as they come, and he doesn’t really play into the good/bad stereotypes. He picks whatever side will help his goals meet, whatever the cost. Even at risk of his own sanity in some cases. His best friends are Wally West, Linda West, and James Jesse. Even though his bestie is a Flash, he STILL joined the rogues and to this day he uses his powers and technology to help whatever cause he deems worthy of helping.

He sends his rats out to find missing persons. He steals money from corporations stealing the livelihood of lower class working people. He advocates for homeless, LGBTQ+, POC, pro choice, renewable energy, etc etc. He is a good person that sometimes does bad things for good reasons.

So yeah, him and David? Not a great match.

ON THE OTHER HAND!!

Leonard freaking Snart. Where to begin with this. Leader of the rogues and devout older brother. His little sister comes first, always, Just like Hartley’s little sister does for him.

Even though he starts a whole gang just to send a huge middle finger to the justice system that failed him time and time again, he sets up these rules that all of the rogues must follow or there will be severe punishment.

No killing supers or flashes. No killing women or children (generally all civilians are off limits). Don’t betray your fellow rogue.

He hand picked not only a highly skilled team of super criminals, but he also created a family.

Snart’s best friend, Mick Rory, for all the arsonist tendencies and gruff exterior he exudes, still has a soft touch. Later on in the comics, he’s even seen turning a new leaf and going on the good side, helping Hartley and James keep their friends from making a huge ass mistake. If that doesn’t tell you their judge of character, I don’t know what will.

Not only that, but Snart spends holidays DELIVERING PRESENTS TO ORPHANAGES DRESSED AS SANTA! Tell me he’s “cold hearted” after that. You can’t.

He truly does care for his community, and by having the most well respected and feared gang, he simultaneously keeps the streets clean of normal gang activity you might see because they claimed most of the terf on Central City and no one wants to mess with the crazy super powered team.

Sometimes it feels like they rob someplace just for the kick of it, or to keep up appearances. They don’t really need any more money, they’ve stolen A LOT of it and we don’t necessarily see em use it much besides when Hartley is donating it anonymously to charity.

Despite Hartley’s “betrayal” to the rogues, Snart and him still seem relatively friendly with each other. Here is a panel where Hartley is helping Wally clean up some of the chaos in the city the Rogues and instigating, and Snart even calls him “old friend” despite him working with the supposed enemy.

And, despite Hartley leaving his rogue legacy behind and he and James leave for good, there are moments where Hartley shows a bit of regret for leaving them like that and implies that he even misses them.

Snart sought out Piper because he was the first person to break out of Iron Heights, unaided. The original escapee. Both of them are wicked smart and clever, use dry humour and sarcasm, create their own weapons and keep their secrets close to their chest with hearts of bleeding gold. They do what’s right by their own accounts, even if they have to do something wrong to make ends meet.

OH, OHH SHRAP, AND THERES A WHOLE SUBCULTURE OF ONE OF THE BATBOYS BEING NEAL CAFFREY.

Y’all get ready, Jaybart is coming to the FBI. ;) I’m never letting this go now.

Dr Reid?? And the criminal informant in the white collar division?? Scandal!!!1!!11!

Just two undercover Justice League agents infiltrating the FBI who are also in love <3

Okay I cannot be the ONLY one to see the similarities of Bart and Spencer Reid. The Eidetic memory, walking fact book, socially awkward and avoidance of spotlight. A blindspot to romantic endeavours and their petty intellectual pranks. Acute sense of Justice but also a deep, burning anger. The hair, the baggy clothes. Fuck you, they’re the same person.
