What the Shea

“We just wanted to remind you that even though you lost one family…”

“… I gained another. Thanks, you guys. I couldn’t ask for a better safety net…”

Excuse me, I’ll just be over here sobbing forever over my classic Titans feels, okay. ;__;

These will always be my Teen Titans. It’s not that I don’t think the later members or the subsequent line-ups are awesome, because they are and I can enjoy them and it’s actually very important to me to see these legacies move forward (because very often trying to recapture the past by invalidating more recent history is exactly what leads DC into trouble). But when you say “Teen Titans” to me… these are the guys I’ll think of. There was something beautiful and unique between them, and you just can’t beat that history in my book.

And I just really, really miss the relationships Dick had with these characters. Remember when Dick actually used to have friends? Good times, guys. Good times.

On a lighter note, it makes me laugh that at least half of these look really inappropriately shippy. ROFL, Dick. I almost used a picture of Joey and Dick where they were hugging half-naked, but I thought that would just be a bit much.

Also, I would like to be known that that picture of Dick and Raven is not anything that happened as a result of mind-control, because I would never use that as a way of celebrating their friendship. He’s just giving her a friendly kiss on the cheek of his own volition. And it just looks inappropriately shippy because… it does. Dammit, Dick. Stop being such a Ship Launcher, you.
