#thank god jasons not crazy anymore everyone! now we can freely skate by without dealing with any consequences to our actions

what if instead of “what if jason came back to life and was normal” we started contemplating “what if jason came back to life and all his grievances were accurately addressed and validated”

I’m sick of people making it out to be that jason’s circumstances only came about due to his time with talia when its not true!! its not true and its doing a disservice to jason as a character and all of the in universe victims that went through the same trauma as him

you surely couldn’t expect him to be happy that the joker, his murderer, was still alive? not even securely jailed! no, this man comes back out routinely to do the same thing that happened to jason to others.

you surely couldn’t expect him to be happy that someone else was in the role that delivered him his death sentence? surely bruce is able to be a grown adult who didn’t need to rely on children as crutches so he could fight the fight he chose to be in! you surely couldn’t tell me that the way gotham is operating right now actually works! surely not! there’s no reason for jason to be angry as if his memory and legacy wasn’t desecrated and used as a lesson by his own father the moment they buried him 6ft under. SURELY he couldn’t still be angry that it took him dying for people to realize they treated him so fucking poorly

what if jason was allowed to be selfish? what if jason was allowed to not forgive someone, or just, anyone?

but no, no you’re right. its talia and her weird magic anger inducing green pit of nasty water

#jason todd #dcu #red hood #dc #I hate HATE it when people frame that sort of au as jason being ‘normal’ #thank god jasons not crazy anymore everyone! now we can freely skate by without dealing with any consequences to our actions #la la la we’re all just one big happy family now
