Are YOU keeping your chicks warm through the winter? Why we should take notes from Bats on childcare

Hmmm good info for fic ideas

People who write Jason calling Sheila a bitch in his internal monologue don’t understand him I’m sorryyy. I don’t think he’s ever actually said a word against her in canon at the is point. He spent his last moments trying to protect her from the blast even after her betrayal. He is insane in ways you can’t even begin to fathom

this is the baby they insisted was a threat :(

when u grow up

Having the time of my life with Batman and Robin: Year One.

There’s something here I can feel it

submissive in the way a livestock guardian dog is submissive to the sheep it kills wolves for

Fab 5 canon nicknames (and speaking habits)

actual canon things that the teen titans (from the 60s) have called each other. No I’m not kidding. There’s even five hours’ worth of proof below the cut.  

(I’ll edit this post as i continue reading the rest of the run, but here’s for #1-25, so if you see this as a rb, you might want to check the original post for updates)

keep in mind that the nicknames get tossed around, so really, there’s like one or two nicknames that are just between two people, whereas other nicknames are said by the whole team (in a very serious manner, too. They’ll be at the verge of death and it’s like “twinkletoes, catch!”)

Dick-

• “Big Brain”, “Genius” (in a non-sarcastic way) || Wally to Dick (SPECIFICALLY he has said “i dig you, genius!” 

• “Robin-o!” “Robin-bobbin’” || Wally to Dick

• “Brainy” || Garth to Dick

• “Bug-eyes” || Wally to Dick

• “Boy Wonderful” || Wally to Dick 

This isn’t a nickname but once Donna was asking who’d like to dance with her (they were like 14 max) and then Wally was busy, and Garth was reading, and Roy wasn’t in that issue, so Donna turns to Dick and he’s like “no, wonder chick! I have ___ to do” and DOnna’s like “Robin, you’re such a downer! BUt i forgive you- because you’re so cute!” and i just slkfdjksjgsg same

And this goes unsaid, but Dick’s got this hole “Holy ____!” thing going on, and it’s hilarious

Wally-

• “Boy Bullet” || Narrator to Wally

• “Twinkletoes” (sometimes spelled Twinkle Toes) || Dick started it, but then it stuck so now everyone calls him that

“Chuckle-brains” || Dick to Wally

• “Scarlet speedster” “Scarlet Jokester” || Dick to Wally

• “Kid flasheroo” (sometimes he just calls him ‘flasheroo’ || Dick (and occasionally garth) to Wally

Wally uses “old english” and he’s done it so much it just stuck to the other titans (wally also says ‘yo’ a lot)

• “Gnatskull” || Garth to Wally

• “Daring young man on the flying trampoline!” || Donna to Wally (in just this one issue)

•  “Flasher” || Roy to Wally (and as they grow up that’s more of a consistent nickname)

• “Lover boy” || Donna to Wally

Donna- 

• “WG” || I mean it stands for ‘wonder girl’ so i wasn’t going to add it but they DO say it a lot so-

• “Wonder gal” || Dick to Donna

• “Wonder Chick” || Literally all of them at some point to Donna. Yes really. the all call her things like that, but that’s the way their friendship rolls, you know? Beucause in other issues, other guys have tried to talk to donna like that, and donna beats the shit out of them if they push it too hard <3 They also call donna things like “Wonder Doll” and “baby”, “gorgeous” , “Doll” and things like that and honestly i think it’s cute (in return, she has called them things like “Handsome”, “Luv”, “Lover boy”. It’s not romantic, though (in the end of the run, Wally confessed his feelings for Donna, and she let him down gently, but this didn’t change their relationship in such an impactious way)

• “Doll-face” || Wally to Donna

• “Blue eyes” || Roy to Donna 

Donna also says things like “Merciful Minerva!” and “Shades of Pluto!” “Great Hera!” Things like that. 

Donna tends to say “Hola!” a lot and its so cute sfskjg

• “Wonder baby” || Wally to Donna

She also gets called things like ‘beautiful’ by the members, ALL the members of the titans, and I just think that’s really neat

• “My pretty miss” || Roy to Donna

• “Luv” || Wally to Donna (as you can see, there’s a crush going on here)

Garth- 

• “Sea flea” “ Webfoot” (sometimes spelled web-foot) || Dick to garth

• “Gill-head” || Roy to Garth

• “Smarty-gills” || Donna to Garth

I’ve also noticed how Garth (aqualad) uses a lot of alliteration in like,,,, everything??? Boy will say “Holy hagfish!” or “Jumping Jackfish!” and “barrelling Barnacles” and “Murmin’ moonfish!” “Holy hammerheads!” “Leapin’ Lumpfish!” “howling houndfish!” “Draggin’ Dogfish!” and its just skjdfhskjfsdgkjs

Roy-

• “Boy Bowman” || Wally about Roy

• “shafty” || Dick to Roy

• “Handsome” || Donna to Roy 

ps. there’s this one time they were taking a summer job as a team (by this time, roy was part of the team), and they were in their superhero costumes, and then Dick just pulls out swimsuits for everyone (because the summer job is in civvies) and i just found that beautiful because current batman has plans on how to destroy his teammates (just in case), and then Robin goes and buys swimsuits for his and i just skfskjrshtajrs (teen titans 1960s #11)

I also would like to bring to attention this one issue (issue #12) in which Donna is listening to the radio and she’s dancing, and she’s the only one that likes that station, and the guys just “Okay, you have fun, we’ll be downstairs training!” and i just like it a lot because they’re not like “you MUST. train with us, because you need to get better and-” … yeah. They’re just friends and I love that sosososososo much. 

They also say things like “Boys” (Donna to rest), and “Gang”, and Dick usually says “team” when refrerring to them whole as a group, and it’s just my favourite thing because you can see how (unlike the rebirth and new52 teen titans), they’re all friends and they show so and it’s just so endearing okay?

andddd as promised, there are like 2098534520 panels below, with the nicknames (and some panels that just made me really happy) (they’re not in order and the captions are keyboard smashes so read at your own risk)
