ive had this thought for ages about jason dating a southern girl/guy/person
Thoughts?
YES ANON OH YES I HAVE
I’m not southern in an american context (which i assume this ask is in) but I am very much southern in a Canadian context (which, in ontario, is pretty similar)
I’m thinking of this as also a from the countryside! type of reader headcanons…
Here are my thoughts…
(This is gn!reader btw)
So for whatever reason, you end up moving to Gotham City. Whether for school or a new life or a new job opening.
Rent is cheap, but you’re thinking you may need to put yourself into self defence classes.
Lots of pros and cons.
Luckily!! One pro is your new boyfriend!!
I really don’t believe Jason would date anyone unless he had known them and been friends with them first (demiromantic!jason truther right here)
ANYWAYS
Jason being a little shocked at the idea that you used to have to drive 30+ minutes to get to the grocery store before you moved to Gotham
Jason getting HEART ATTACKS because you’re way too busy staring up at all the buildings in awe while walking, too busy to be looking for highly possible dangers up ahead
“That’s so huge!! Look at all the windows at that one!”
“Please tell me you don’t do this when I’m not here guiding you.”
Later in your relationship, if you’re not afraid of heights, and he knows no one will see y’all, he takes you to the top of wayne enterprises to see all of gotham
One time during patrol, he catches sight of you walking back from one of your outings.
He’s not stalking… he’s making sure his partner is getting home safe!
He watches you wait for a crosswalk when there isn’t a single car around and finds it adorable.
Like… just cross. It gets you home faster and out of danger.
He finds your differences in growing up fascinating,
He was in alleyways, broken down buildings, only got to properly see the sun once in a blue moon when the clouds were gone and it was just at the right angle.
You grew up always in the sun, able to see the stars at night in such clarity, had the choice of seeing the sunrise AND sunset every day.
Please take Jason to the country on a clear summer night so this boy can look at the stars with you PLEASE
I was going to comment on accents, but Jason has no say against yours
I’ve always imagined him with the THICKEST new jersey accent, distinctly something that people associate with Gotham (or at least the poorer people of gotham)
He’s trained it away, but it comes back when tired, pissed off, distracted, saying something familiar, etc. (it happens to me at the best of times with that canadian accent😞 i catch myself off guard sometimes)
If he comments on your southern accent, you have FULL authority to bring up the one time he woke up at your place talking about a “cuppo CAUWfee” (cup of coffee)
Feel free to add on to this with your own hcs in the reblogs!!
This is kinda messy my bad

My Initial Thoughts on The Last Jedi
I’ve seen it twice but I’m still processing, and I do feel I can’t really know my read on the trilogy until it’s complete, but here are my thoughts for right now.
Things I Like:
Luke’s acknowledgment that the Jedi are terrible, especially the line that a Jedi Master trained and created Vader
The Force doesn’t belong to the Jedi!!!!!!!!!
Luke’s daily routine on the island
Luke having Vader’s kyber crystal
Luke choosing to use Anakin’s lightsaber in his appearance as The Legendary Luke Skywalker
Luke’s binary sunset sob
Leia using the Force
Luke kissing Leia’s forehead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
R2D2 using the Leia hologram
Everything Amilyn Holdo
Leia and Amilyn’s last exchange kills me
Everything Rose Tico
Rose pulling back the curtain on how the wealthy make and retain their riches through war and finally highlighting income inequality in the galaxy (Anakin was a slave, but is snatched up into privilege; Luke was literally dirt poor but it is never a plot point)
Finn and Rose taking turns inspiring each other
Finn making the speech to rally them to fight
Poe’s reunion with BB-8, their relationship is so pure
Rey and the Millennium Falcon 
The crystal foxes, I want one, I want one, I want one
Ben Solo leaning into his role as Anakin Skywalker’s legacy -- Ben trying to wipe away the failed systems and rule the galaxy is far and away more compelling than wearing a mask and being Snoke’s best boi
Thus using Anakin’s lightsaber to kill Snoke is most excellent
Anakin’s lightsaber and Vader’s helmet now both being broken husks is neat imagery that ties directly into the themes of the film
Ben and Rey fighting the red guard together (we could have had it all!!!)
Ben and Rey’s Force connection and how it parallels Luke and Leia’s (I am a Rey Solo truther)
Snoke describing Rey as the Light Side equivalent to Ben’s Dark Side, referencing the Clone Wars Mortis arc, which I love (I am a Rey Solo truther)
“That’s how we win. Not fighting what we hate, saving what we love.”
The overarching theme of legend, legacy, and expectations versus reality and how it can be read metatextually
Things I Like Less:
Luke and Leia both giving up on Ben UGH NO
No one answered Leia’s call for help????
Still no one uses Anakin’s name
Yoda
Rey’s trip to the Mirror of Erised
Phasma remains a nonentity 
The Maz Kanata appearance is weird and feels like a video game
DJ has a point about “good guys and bad guys” but he fails to make it by helping the First Order
The Chewie/Leia hug, the Poe/Rey introduction, and ‘your parents are nothing’ come across a bit forced
Amilyn has an AMAZING death but I’m super sad she’s dead, especially given we’ve lost Leia, too
Paige also has a good death and it’s important to Rose’s story but I wish she was alive, too
The ghost of a love triangle that no one wants 
This film acknowledges and builds on the prequels much more than TFA did and of course people are using that to spread renewed hate on the prequels
Looking Forward:
We will never get to see Leia win and I will never be over it
Luke has to show up as a Force Ghost to teach Rey the third lesson right?
The epilogue (and how it ties directly into Rose and Finn’s escape) suggests the Resistance will rise by engaging the downtrodden on every planet
I want Force Ghost Anakin and I’m not going to stop talking about it
Mention Padmé Amidala in the sequels 2keternity
I am pretty terrified of how Ben Solo’s storyline will resolve particularly given that we are getting JJA back
We better see those dice in the Han Solo film
