#ITS WORSE WHEN YOU REALISE DAMAIN PUSHED AWAY THEIR LOVE BUT TIM ACTIVLY STRIVED FOR IT

[excarow]

Damian being raised to see himself only as a weapon and later being taught that he's more than that VS Tim being raised to see himself only as a tool and being reinforced of that belief by the same people that taught Damian to love himself is such a good parallel holy shit.

Like, both of them were told that they had to have Purpose™ by their parents, but only one was later told that he could be loved for the sake of being loved while the other was only proved that his parents were right.
