Damian actively gathers blackmail material on every member of the family... but he can't find anything on Jason. He needs to fix that...
Tropes
- Annoying Younger Sibling: Damian irritates Jason when he follows him on patrol.
- Blackmail Backfire: An example where the backfire occurs before the blackmail demand is even made. Damian crows over finding Jason's big secret - he reads Jane Austen. Instead of being embarrassed at the idea of having this exposed, Jason shrugs it off like it's no big deal.
- Crazy-Prepared: Damian has files on everyone, barring Alfred, so that he can use their dirty secrets to avoid being forced into doing their chores.
- Dark Secret: Subverted. Jason's reading habits are not the embarrassing secret that Damian thinks they are. Played straight at the end when Damian asks Jason not to tell anyone they hung out.
- Didn't See That Coming: Damian thinks that he's made Jason quiver in his boots when he finds evidence that Jason reads Jane Austen... Jason then goes, "Yeah. So?"
- Hidden Depths: Jason Todd likes Jane Austen's works. Nor is he embarrassed by this fact, despite Damian believing otherwise.
- Not So Above It All: Damian ends up admitting that, yeah, Jason's books aren't as bad as he thought they'd be.
- Shipper on Deck: Inverted; after accepting Jason's suggestion that he read Pride and Prejudice, Damian remarks that he doesn't trust Wickham, saying that he's a bad match for Elizabeth.
