#and then theres just karen wally mal and vic

No but why is Karen and Wally bonding over being the only not rich kids on the team everything—

It's literally giving me life. The Titans, Teen or otherwise, have a serious lack of grounded characters (and not in a 'no powers = grounded' way).

Wally has always been that character. He's always been the everyday, average normal guy living among billionaires royalty and demigods. (Which is wild because he should not be that normal with his power set and abilities)

Karen and Mal were also grounded characters in the og Teen Titans (which, again, was really needed cause Dick did shit like handing strangers thousands of dollars to keep quiet about his friend's antics and Roy went off and did shit like buying a bar on a whim at 16 and Donna and Garth had no concept of money or consequences) but unfortunately the series never really explored that aspect of their characters.

But now??? Now when Roy complains that Wally doesn't have a helipad at his house Wally doesn't have to 'Jim the camera'. Wally has a whole ass person to text this shit to!!! Karen can Snapchat Wally about how Donna thinks healthcare comes from purple laser beams and has zero concept of insurance. They aren't alone!!!

And honestly I love it so much.

#Vic is also super grounded #like Vics dad is upper middle class but at least he's still middle class #but unfortunately Vic and Wally never really got to bond over that??? insanity #kori raven donna and garth are all royalty #gar is an actor #roy dick and lilith are the kids of billionaires #and then theres just karen wally mal and vic #just super fucking normal #but for some reason there's only ever one of them on the team at a time??? like there's a quota on normal people or something #wild #anyway #dc #dc comics #the flash #kid flash #wally west #karen beecher #bumblebee #teen titans #Titans #world's finest teen titans #actually you know what #i take it back #vic and wally did actually bond about this #just not in the titans series (which is why i didn't think about it). the bonded about it in the flash series #they actually were really good friends. so. i guess wally does have friends who understand how much a banana costs at the store
