#kory deserves better

[jasontoddssuper]

White Jason Todd stans will always tell you that he has no well-written romances with girls in canon so i believed them and followed along with them saying he should be with Roy until i actually read his comics and found out literally all his female love interests have been woc

#the closest thing to him liking a white girl is artemis but even then she's a dick situation where she's a poc but dc won't write her as one #but back on topic I FUCKING SEE YOU WITH MY BIG BROWN BIRACIAL EYES!!!!LOWER YOUR VOICE IT'S ANNOYING AS SHIT #especially because roy himself had a woc as his biggest romance(jade)and rhato deblackafied kory to the max along with overs*xualizing her #we get it you hate seeing colorful girls in your perfect white stories but that's too bad for you because we're canonically jason's type💖 #either appreciate him as he actually is or keep his name out of your mouth and rose's artemis' and dana's too.step off!!! #jason todd #pro jason todd #roy harper #roy harper deserves better #rose wilson #pro rose wilson #artemis grace #pro artemis grace #dana harlowe #dana harlowe defense squad #jayrose #jaytemis #jaydana #batfam #arrowfam #teen titans #wonderfam #rhato #the outlaws #poly outlaws #< as in jason and the girls + eddie and kyle #and as per always my jason is a bi trans man who's black/latino and autistic/adhd/mdd #egyptian artemis grace #i'm black tag #letters from summer

Obsessed with that person who reblogged my post saying i don't need to explain how Jason Todd is just Percy Jackson in a different font unless you think og Rhato is a good book with a rant in the tags that was spreading the J*yfire agenda.Like i know they can't read but WOAH i didn't know it was THAT bad

#they said 'something something d*ddy issues' too which is just gross but also.i called jason a d///ilf in it so ?????my guy are you lost???? #see this is why i hate those jokes not only are they inherently ableist but you guys don't even use them correctly most of the time #actually gonna make two posts about that one serious and one shitpost-y after this gimme some minutes #jason todd #percy jackson #roy harper #koriand'r #jason grace #annabeth chase #< because the way they did was comparing pjo jason and roy and annabeth chase and kory #antijayroy #antijaykory #antijoyfire #jercy #roy harper deserves better #pro jason todd #koriand'r defense squad #anti rhato #pjo #afrolatino jason supremacy #black percy #latino percy #trans jason todd #transfem percy jackson #bigender percy jackson #autistic jason todd #batfam #arrowfam #teen titans #summerposting

TW for SA

I'm seeing so many people defending Raven after what she did to Wally and what the fuck 😥

I would stop talking about this but I rant a lot when I get angry and there's no one to talk to rn. So you're all my new victims lmao /j

Okay. I just saw a person say “Ppl invent SA against their (male) favorite characters and ignore the SA against female characters in the same piece of media”

And, uh. That's pretty familiar, don't you think?

Say, what does it remind you of?

Personally, it reminds me of men victimizing themselves when women talk about the continued SA they have to go through during all their lives.

“You talk about males being SAd, but what about females being SAd?” = “Men get raped too”

It's awfully similar, isn't it?

That post was directed at Walls (Gimme, Hunter, or their full blog name: givemewallywestorgivemedeath) because they talked about Wally's experience with SA after an Anon (I think they were anonymous, can't remember tho) asked them about it

And, well. Not only did a person literally asked directly about Wally's experience with SA (not Starfire's, not Raven's, not Barbara's, not Dick's: Wally's), but their blog is literally all about speedsters. Mostly. So OF COURSE they were gonna talk about Wally West, the Flash, a speedster

And look. I get it if you dislike Wally and people who like Wally. I get it if you like Raven. It's fine. We all like different things. There's no need to force other people to love what you love. But defend her after she SAd someone? No. That's not right.

Guys, that was sexual assault. It wasn't Raven being a silly little gal. It was actual assault and an incredibly traumatizing situation that affected Wally's entire being for the rest of his life

Don't be a hypocrite and stop bringing other people down the way you complain everyone does to you (and i'm not saying they don't, because in this case, they do. Men hate women. I don't know why, since it makes no sense, but they do. They want to bring women down. Not all of them, ofc, but most. But don't do the same thing to other people. Don't be a fucking hypocrite, it's not that hard)

And like. I'll be the first person to talk about the SA women suffer. I'm all down for it. Heck, I already do it. But you don't need to erase other people's experiences to elevate your own

And this is for men too: men get raped too, we know, and it's something terrible that no one should go through. But you only start talking about it when women are talking about their own issues. If you don't want to bring a woman down, then you'll ignore the SA against men. Don't do that.

#tw for sa #tw: sa mention #i hate people who shame wally for following raven around when she literally forced him to do so #the way dc deals with SA is bad in general. not only with men #i only know fully about two examples (wally and dick) but i know that there are more #i mean. wasn't starfire literally sold into slavery? #i'm not sure about what exactly kory went through but. yeah. there's no way she wasn't SAd. and honestly i feel so bad for her #she deserves sm better #stan kory #we love kory #back to raven and wally #there were SO many ways to make wally stay. so many spells that could tricked him into not leaving the titans #and it would still be fucked up but it wouldn't be SA #out of all the things she could've done. why was sexually assaulting him the only way? #that literally makes no sense #she KNEW she would ruin his life. she shows remorse for what she's done because she KNOWS it was wrong #and yet the love spell still happened. and it's still there #srs how do people not see how fucked up that is #i could talk about this for hours #dc #dc comics #wally west #wally west park

Character progression is going from being a Jott and Dickbabs shipper to being a Scemma and Dickory shipper

Jean and Bab’s deserve independence arcs

I fricken gasped when I saw the Titans season four trailer. Has my sweet green haired child finally gotten his own storyline??? It’s a miracle!!!

[anxiouslowercase]

someone might have pointed this out already, but the cardigan/august/betty love triangle has BIG babs/kory/dick vibes, and tbh my final veredict is that dick needs to attend therapy before even attempting to get back into a relationship with either of them (or anyone for that matter)

#dick grayson #barbara gordon #kory anders #dick sweetie ilu but all three of you deserve better and it all starts with therapy #this week in mel attaches taylor swift songs to any and all dc characters

[perenians]

having some dickkory thoughts in this blog tonight

#thinking about someone telling donna that kory deserves better than dick and her being like #i love dick but i know what you mean #i used to think the same way. but then i thought #he makes her happy #and that’s gotta be worth something #right? #she makes him better yknow. #they love each other #calm down per

[hood-ex]

im a dif anon but imo, season 3 of the yj cartoon sucked absolute ass, and everyone and their mother knows it. Whats surprising, though, is that i think even the writers know it. because season 4 has absolutely JUMPED in writing quality, and it’s been pretty great so far! theyve gone out of their way to correct a lot of their past mistakes from season 3, from general fumbles in writing/characterization/storyline to some of the more straight-up offensive shit they did in s3 (leaning a little into some unhealthy tropes, like someone comes out as bisexual by cheating on their boyfriend with someone of a dif gender like thats soooo hashtag rebellious). if youd be watching just for Dick/batfam stuff though, season 3 was rough on his characterization imo, and so far his appearances in s4 have been pretty bare, so we’ll just have to see! but anyway i totally get it if it just doesnt seem worth it—im still reeling from the s1->s2 timeskip, too, lmao!!

oh and also, they keep hinting that theyre gonna bring jason back as red hood, so i suppose thats something to look out for, but idk if it’ll *actually* happen or not. theres also some hope for wally coming back, but its probably kinda flimsy in all honesty lmaooo

Look at the YJ creative team listening to the criticism and trying to improve the writing 👏🏻. The Titans creative team cannot say the same 💀. Titans really said, "Can we make this even worse than last time? I think we can 😌."

But, oof, yeah. The lack of Dick content makes me less interested in watching. If my two wives, Donna and Kory, were in the show as teammates then I think that could sustain me in Dick's absence but alas aslkdjala.

Oh fuck yeah. You get me on the time skips. The first episode of YJ S2 left me with an all-consuming feeling of:

#but actually you know what the titans deserve better than yj so i'm okay with some of them being separated or not involved w the show #like kory definitely does not deserve to be subjected to yj's animation style alksjdal #YJ #anon

Going through the Dick/Kory tag on a03

#SHEEESH sheesh #I like the Kory reverence trope because obviously its what she deserves and battle worn love sick Dick Grayson is therapeutic #but damn yall the teen titans live action show got the girlies guylies and theydies DEPRESSED #canon divergence this and rewriting an episode that but i get it cuz a fanfic writer can often write a better episode #but its all rewrites and live action show characters like YALL WHERE IS THE DICK/KORY?? WHERE IS IT?? I'M TIRED OF THEM BEING 'MOM AND DAD' #CAN THEY SMASH? CAN THEY GO ON A MISSION? WHERE IS THE DRAMATIC FLARE PEOPLE?? #also the more I'm on a03 the more I think ffn had a better interface... #as someone who goes on many a tag rant i think a03 tags are too much lol they border irrelevant #i used to write a little tt I should dip my toes back in and feed myself

listen, we all know i’m unofficially a birdflash blog so everyone must be squinting their eyes at the robstar content i’ve been rebloging, but like. listen.

i blame teen titans mostly, but like, look at her. Kory is so amazing, i love her to pieces, and yes i am more of a w|w starfire kinda gal, but Kory and Dick are bi4bi if i’ve ever seen it. 

also, if they’re not gonna make birdflash canon the least they could do is robstar. like, this amazingly powerful woman of color who’s suffer tremendously definitely probably deserves better than Dick, but they could stop discrediting their relationship. like, i love Babs, don’t get me wrong, but i am not about how they’re pushing d*ickbabs at the cost of robstar and Kory. 

so, i am pro robstar because i will not see them do my girlboss dirty like that. and also i love Mar’i Grayson. she deserves to be canon, and Dick deserves to be a dilf. 

#its the racism for me folks #i said what i said #they both deserve better than dick #but dc is still working their way to it so until then #also i'm a mar'i grayson stan #she's so cute #but like i don't ship her with dami because no matter what they said that is just ew #i still can't believe they did that #so gross #kory is so pretty #i'm really more of a kory/raven girl #looking up that fanfic now don't mind me #even like them as an ot3 #what a big brain idea #the revelation i've had in these tags #but like the teen titan cartoon version? #yeah i think so #thanks for coming to my tedtalk #nightwing #dick grayson #koriand'r #kori anders #kory anders #dickkory #robstar #dickory #dick x kory #dc comics #teen titans

[calciumcryptid]

You know what, I think the reason I rank Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson so low on my Batfam rankings is because most of my comic exposure to them includes DickBabs and it just makes them both immensely unlikable to me.

#i am will smith at the oscars yelling at dc chris rock to keep kori out of their fucking mouths #is that okay for me to tag this as? im going to keep it unless someone says otherwise #im starting to dislike dickory because i think she deserves better #maybe ill convert to donnakory who knows im feeling festive

[ofsavior]

you have a crush on... || anonymous.​

You have a crush on Robin, Starfire

     “ Robin is... complicated, as are the feelings we harbor for one another. ” She admits. There’s no denying something between them. A friendly chemistry? A once-was but never again? It’s hard to say. His dedication to heroics before himself blinds him in some ways. While that’s part of what she loves about him, he carries it to its detriment.

      “ I am grateful for the friendship we have. I’m sure it will last a lifetime. ” Starfire laments, a subtle sigh pulling from her. There’s no denying or hiding the twinge of disappointment. “ This may be where we stand with one another for a lifetime. ”

[gangrenados]

I have never seen more regret on that man's face than when Kori immediately told him she'd had the same vision right after he said to hell with visions lol I swear Dick was trying not to cry because he messed up SO BAD and the repercussions were instant

They stress me out so bad, I hope they divorce lmao

#i hate slow burn and i hate people who don't communicate what they feel #it stresss me out #kory get out of there you deserve better

[bruciemilf]

LOOK I AM IN FACT GONNA THROW HANDS WITH MY BRAIN FOR GIVING ME THIS IDEA WHEN IT REFUSES TO WORD - BUT BASICALLY???

YouTuber batkids, right? Batkids who want to connect, in some way, with the world they're protecting, - at least Dick, who started the whole fire, actually.

He has YouTube tutorials giving out gymnastics tips, stretching cheat codes, balancing a healthy routine with the occasional work out routine that's friendly for all body types and also talks about mental health

Tim happened to walk in on him telling the camera about someone named " Kori" who seems to be " out of this world" , and Tim is like OH COOL??? I WANNA DO THIS, TOO??? That event signed the birth of Wayne Enterprises prank compilations

I can see Jason bringing some limelight to BookTube again; He also gives out AMAZING writing tips, routines, provides college level advice and lessons for free, and he also has series where he's discussing literature tropes he's tired of/hates " Stop trying to fix him, youre not Dr. Frankenstein "

His most popular video is titled " Women In Literature: Are They Better Than Men? (SPOILER! They've always been.) " But he also bakes with Alfred a whole lot, as well as doing make-up and mystery videos with Tim

" Hold on, fuck, I ALWAYS mess up the eyeliner-" Bruce, a well known and lusted after cryptid on his kid's channels, simply pulls out a knife and does perfect wings before walking away

Bruce for the mom that brings kids fruits and doesn't know what the hell a vlog or stream is!!!

Jason games sometimes, mostly when he's on Duke and Steph's channel, and I physically NEED for Bruce to walk in, oversized superman sweater on, holding a plate of berries and oranges and he's like, " Jay, you have to eat your fruits-"

" I don't LIKE fruits"

" well, Tim's gonna be devasted, but you still NEED to"

Just Duke and Stephanie trying not to laugh while their big brother almost breaks his neck trying to run away from Bruce when the man wants to kiss his cheek

Damian can be seen causing mischief in the background of every video, regardless who's channel he's on, and the internet loves him as much as Bruce;

Stephanie has a " dami's zoo" series where she shows that little menace animal movies and he just roasts the absolute red jelly out of the producers; " The number of people who deserve oxygen lowers by the day"

[punkeropercyjackson]

Please tell me how Duke,Cass and Stephanie getting nonstop left out of Batfam content isn't because of antiblackness,racialized misogyny and a mix of gender essentialism,classism and ableism.When none of you can shut the fuck up about how 'black haired and blue eyed male is the only requirement for a Batkid!' and go as far as to include 'pale/fair skinned' sometimes when Damian and Dick are brownskin in multiple versions because of being brown in heritage and Damian and Jason have green eyes half the time and by saying 'lighteyed' when it comes to Batboys,that would be problematic but it'd at least include Duke since he's gold eyed due to Gnonom and you probably don't even know who that is since you actively refuse to meet Duke even though he's easiest Batkid to read for BECAUSE he's got so little content and Cass and Stephanie also have a small amount of material compared to the other boys

When Cass is chosen over Duke for Jason by all of you even though she hates him and she chooses Stephanie again and again against everyone's wishes and Duke canonically WANTS to be chosen for fucking once and Jason DID choose him and is the only other Batboy who called him a Robin directly outside of Robin War and Stephanie's dying wish was be 'a real Robin' and Cass' character creation purpose is to defy the idea that asian women exist only for white men and go against other asian girl stereotypes,INCLUDING being purely soft and feminine by making her a rough and tough butch who hates cis men.When you say 'Fuck canon,fanon is better!' to justify your millions of rewrites to erase Tim's Robin being a romani man and his Batgirl a half chinese girl and Jason's Robin and Batgirl being a black autistic boy and his Batgirl a bpdtistic male explotation victim and your crossovers of characters who have the perfect parents or at least caretakers in canon but suddenly,canon is your gospel when it comes to the bigotry in it's writing i.e how 'The core Batkids' came to be

And the fact is,that's like the only Batkids combo that DOSEN'T make sense!The Dead Robins Club is a no brainer but there's also the 90s Batkids trinity,the Shakespearen Robins(Jason,Stephanie and Duke),The Troubled Batkids(Tim,Stephanie,Cass and Duke),Batman!Cass Batwoman!Stephanie Robin!Maps and Trans Batgirl!Damian and the ONLY CANON Nightwing Robin and Batgirl trio we've ever gotten in Dick Tim and Cass??????You have some of the best dynamics of all time possible but nah,you'd rather pass it over for infantalizing a grown ass disabled moc into your pathetic lil pretty obsessed manchild,turning thee dead sidekick into a convuluted mess more than canon ever has and that's saying BIG words,cringeifying someone who just has the personality of an ordinary of 17 year old boy and is therefore inherently lovable into the arranged marriage lovechild of a dark romance guy and a pick me quotev girl and dehumanize a cute and sweet lil brown boy who's got that trauma already to turn him into an animal in human mold in the same breath you bash him healing enough to get a gf through trauma bonding and being kiddy together in favor of your groody ass lil age gap fantasy-Actually,that applies to ALL OF THEM

Kory,Rose and STEPHANIE are infinitely better written love interests for Dick,Jason and Tim than any older man you want them to get with,Tim most of all because he's not even a man,he's a boy.Cass and Stephanie are adults and have been for a long time in multiple incarnations so why not make Stephcass smut instead?Why not 'Duke joins the Batfam early/Jason takes Duke into The Outlaws after he has a fight with Bruce that scared him/Sleep Deprived Duke Thomas/Chaotic Duke Thomas/Duke Thomas deserves better/Trans Duke Thomas/Autistic Duke Thomas?,all of which are infinitely more implicable to Duke than they are to Tim and so is 'Token Normal Tim Drake'?When you make this content or you support it,you're saying something.You're saying you don't care about representation and perfer stereotyping and abusive dynamics because you believe they're inherently more interesting

Before you judge this post,consider the following:Which one of us has read enough comics and watched enough adaptions to know all this?Which one of us has more of a right to call themself a Batfam and Batkids fan?Which one of us is constantly gatekeeping Duke,Cass and Stephanie from their own story and pulling the 'No,YOU!!!!' card?It's absolutely pathetic how desperate the grip Batfanon has taken is and even more so that y'all refuse to move on from it like i did.It's not gonna kill you,you pissbabies.And just curious,how long was the last Batfam-centric post you rb'd?Longer than this,right?

[celaenaeiln]

can i know your thoughts on the “typical” nightwing ships (him with wally, roy, slade, kory, babs, apollo/midnighter, etc etc)?

ofc! <333

As a multishipper I literally love almost all of these

Wally

The softest ship ever! Reading about them is so cute. All cuddles and snuggles, and full on comfort.

It's the best friends to lovers trope

Haven't read about them in a really long while but they used to be my comfort ship. Like these two are so soft each other that they just make me feel warm inside.

Roy

Roydick is my spicy birdflash ship. Their chemistry was more heated with them constantly getting into arguements but falling together again. Going back to the comics I realize that Roy hero-worships Dick and that's why they get into so many fights. Roy literally thinks Dick is too perfect

There's this post about them which provides comic panels about Roy constantly comparing himself to Dick

But mostly Roy wants all of Dick. He wants Dick's 100% attention of them and he hates-HATES-that Dick gives everything to Batman. It drives him so mad because he thinks Batman doesn't deserve any of Dick's attention.

Literally tells Batman- you ain't shit. I feel bad Dick had to deal with you. He doesn't deserve it for all the greatness he is.

Roy wants all of Dick and that's where I ship them including their complicated issues. What makes their relationship so great is their problems. Neither of them will compromise (Dick won't let go of Bruce and Roy won't let go of that issue), but after all the screaming and fighting they still fall back together.

It's Dick that Roy goes to every time he has to deal with Cheshire.

Additional post:

>:> hehe

Ollie has the biggest grin on his face XD

Slade

My OTP LETS GO

Bruh I am so into them.

My post on why they were made for each other

YEA YEA YEAHHHHHH

Slade literally used the steam of Dick's shower to write a message in his bathroom mirror.

okay.

I am obsessed with Slade's obsession with Dick.

I love how in one comic Dick is literally just listing everything that's wrong with his life and Deathstroke is just standing there actively listening with his arms crossed.

He's never gonna give up that apprentice agenda.

Kory

Kory!! I LOVE DICKKORY SO MUCH!!!

When I think of love, they are the epitome of it. I didn't know it was possible to feel love through paper until I saw them. One look at the chemistry is overwhelming.

"Questions about what's right and what's not, I'll always have them. Questions about my loving you? No! I do. Very much."

Dickkory love is stronger than Dick's moral ethics and Dick's moral ethics?

I've never seen Dick love anyone as much as he did Kory. There are issues that came up ofcourse. I'm pretty sure there was an anti-alien sentiment among the general public (real life?) that affected them and on top of that the Batman office wanting Dick back so they just ripped him away from the titans and rewrote a whole new love story for them while trashing Kory for it but when the public's reaction and Dick's "he's so perfect everyone wants him so let's play around with love interests for him" aside, they were the king and queen of love.

What I love about their relationship is Dick loved Kori for who she was, not how she looked. And Kori loved Dick for who he was and not how he looked. On both sides, sometimes all people see of them are their beauty not their personality or strengths or being.

Barbara

Barbara. The reason I held off on writing this.

My feelings about Barbara are complicated.

She and Dick used to be my OTP. I loved them so much I actually hated Kori for a bit, thinking that Barbara was so much better-when I was solely in the fandom. But oh how the table have turned. Very recently the feather broke the camel's back so my feelings about the two of them have changed.

Long story short, they're better off friends. But my favorite moments come from mostly short haired Barbara comics.

This Barbara was AWESOME. She was so chill and cool and funny. She would be smart but not in a demeaning way to others.

Also Batgirl 2000 comic Dickbabs was so sweet (below)

Apollo/Midnighter

love them!

I think Midnighter would totally seduce Dick into a frenemies with benefits arrangement. I mean he's halfway there.

But aside from the usual flirting, Midnighter really, really, REALLY respects Dick's fight skills. I'm sure you've seen the panels of that already but since posts have a 30 image limit I'mma skip over that to the other reason: his greater-that-meta-human tenacity. Things and circumstances that take out metahumans, Dick surpasses through sheer will power and dedication.

So I mostly ship Dick/Midnighter but Apollo would probably join in too at some point.

Constantine

Never getting over how John-I don't do things I don't have to-Constantine saved someone because their body was hot and and their butt looked good. But later on in the comic he talks about how cool he was and what he describes Dick as is when asked about him is:

Additional exchange:

Tiger

His relationship with Tiger is AWESOME!!

It reminds me of his batman Dick relationship with Damian. Snarky and affectionate.

I ran out of image space :'0

But Dick basically gets Tiger-Spyral's number 1 and most loyal spy-to abandon the agency they work for, turn coat, and hunt them down to burn the oragnization into the ground instead. They're literally so funny. I loved Dick and Damian's cute banter and Tiger is just Damian aged up but meaner lol.
