I bet the JL has a “how fucked are we” metric that’s literally just how many of Bruce’s kids are there.
Like if he pulls up to the alien invasion or whatever with just Robin, then everything’s fine. More than fine, actually, because Bruce feels comfortable enough to bring his eight year old along for the ride. This battle will take approximately fifteen minutes and they’ll all get shawarma after. Not fucked in the slightest.
But if Red Robin shows up too… hmm, okay, this is getting somewhat serious. Tim is one of Bruce’s most trusted partners; he’s the smart Robin, the tactician, the loyal one, and so if Batman brought him along then it means he’s at least a little bit worried about shit hitting the fan and wants one his advisors around. But the combined brain power of Bruce and Tim is pretty much unmatched (DC plot armor for the win), so everything will be fine, basically. Superman might take a hit, but everything’s going to be fine. Just keep calm and you’ll all make it home in time to Door Dash some Panda Express before it closes. So not that fucked.
It starts to get serious after that. When Signal and Spoiler roll up the scene, shit has definitely hit the fan. Batman’s worried enough to call in reinforcements and he’s probably doubting the League’s ability to listen/obey his orders, so he needs a backup plan in case things go really south. But with Signal’s abilities and Steph’s superpower of turning anything into a joke, chances are you’ll be okay. Maybe impaled or something, but okay. But still, fucked.
When Nightwing shows, the JL knows it’s starting to get dicey out on the field. See, Nightwing’s got his own team, his own issues—the fact that he set that all aside to help out his dad is cause for concern. On a scale from 1-10, they are at a 7. Above moderately fucked.
And… oh God. Black Bat? Most of the time the JL doesn’t even see her, but once she makes herself known and starts fighting alongside her siblings, they all start to silently freak out. Black Bat is a fucking machine and if she’s breaking a sweat trying to fight the Big Bad, things are definitely not going to go well. They start praying that Batman figures something out. They freak out. They are intrinsically fucked.
But God Forbid you catch sight of the Red Hood. The prodigal son is a legitimate killer, and if Batman’s letting him blow out brains then the JL knows he’s desperate. And a desperate Batman is not good. At all. They are definitely fucked.
don't want to write I want to think very hard about my fic until it emerges from my head fully formed like athena
anyways i think bruce historically takes the batboys on an annual fishing trip which they all hate so so so much. it gets to the point where it's only tim accompanying him, because unlike dick or jason, tim would simply disintegrate from guilt if he stayed home.
then cass comes along and bruce thinks "oh no well there goes my fishing trips. all of the boys hate them anyways... and it's not like i can take a GIRL fishing."
cue bruce and cass, alone next to some dinky old river with nothing but their fishing rods and an esky full of cold beers, wearing a matching pair of fuckass fishing hats, both religiously applying sunscreen and bug spray.
hey! so, you know how there's the trend right now where people are drawing their ships in a snapchat setting where one flexes, and the other copies it but is Ripped and it's a whole goofy thing? well, do you think either peter or jason would do that in the ECM universe? I feel like both are goofy enough, but I wanted to hear your words on it as well lmao
(btw, I absolutely LOVE ECM, i never thought I'd ever ship peter and jason, but you've convinced me, I love your interpretations of them so so So much!!!)
YOU MEAN LIKE THIS?!?!?!?! https://www.tumblr.com/k1ng-g0ober/772203328873578496/am-i-too-late-for-this-trend-once-again-fanart
(you seriously have the best of timings lmao. Go thank @k1ng-g0ober for blessing ussssss)
And yes, I do think Peter and Jason, in their 'time to traumatise the family' era would pull this shit lmao. But it would absolutely be orchestrated by Peter. Jason is a social media illiterate (and YES he does rub that into people):
Jason: I don't understand why I have to pose like this. Peter: That's because you're approximately eighty years old and have the social media awareness of clam. Now pout - Yes! Just like that. Jason: This is objectifying. I am being objectified. Peter: Yes, but Tim didn't offer me the last donut, so this is payback. Just lie back and think of England.
please do not. the tim drake
