It's been making the rounds of my flist wrt: Robins and Batgirls, so here's my take.

Male Robins with Damian excluded because why the hell not
Marry: okay, leaving aside my political stance on marriage, marrying any of them is a terrible idea. Dick and Jason are both emotionally draining, though for different reasons, and marriage would be a ride of terrible emo roller-coasters. I can't emphasize the terribleness of this choice enough. I'll... probably choose Dick by default, but that's more because Jason is killing people than because of Dick's inherent qualities (which are great and amazing, but which I don't want to have directed at me at all - and I'm guessing ten minutes later, I'd be stupidly infatuated with him, which wouldn't make the resulting and inevitable disaster any easier). :/ Can I ask for a joker and marry Bruce instead? It'd still be terrible emo issues beyond the telling of it, but I think they might possibly be less terrible than marrying Dick.

Shag: Jason, then. Intense sex (or intense whatever else if neither of us is in a hetero day) and no dealing with his emotional and otherwise issues once I'm out. Win-win!

Cliff: Tim. Like that was even a question (sorry Tim). Even though as a person I think I might like him, but anyway I can't imagine a situation where I'd want to have sex with him.

Batgirls
Marry: ooh Ms Gordon ooh. I would get a religious wedding of Barbara's denomination of choice if she wanted to. Yes, it would be terrible. Yes, as many issues as marrying Dick (but not the same). I'd do it in a heartbeat. She's awesome and awesome and awesome and she's the most intelligent and she's the hottest and she's ♥Oracle♥. I hate sharing my space so much that it'd be difficult no matter who I shared it with, and being ♥Oracle♥'s wife would be worth it.

Shag: Steph. Happy fun sex is happy fun.

Cliff: askljdsclks I am cliffing Cass what the fucking hell is wrong with me. Okay. I adore her, but I don't want to be in bed with her. Besides, being dropped off a cliff isn't going to endanger Cass in a very significant way, imo.

I'd probably marry Tim, shag Dick, and cliff Jason.

Tim might be a bit too brooding, but I think we'd still connect a bit better than I would with Dick.


For Batgirls, marry Cass (I really like her core drive ^^ Plus her bodyreading thing is fun. I could see staying up late and reading books to her...), shag Steph, Cliff Babs (but a very shallow cliff! I don't actually want to hurt her, I just like the others more).

The nice thing about shag/marry/cliff-ing Batfam is the fact that even if you cliff them, there's no guilt because they'd just somersault/call a batcopter/get saved by superboy/or know how to epicly swim.

Heh, I can't give you a pass for Bruce, he's got his own Trinity to play M/S/C with! (Though who I would cliff among Superman/Wonder Woman/Batman would depend entirely on who was writing him or her...)

I love these thoughtful analyses for this ridiculous game. ^_^

I love you for this alone because how true is it, seriously? ♥ the rest does make sense, and yeah, I'd throw you a Joker for Bruce.

Bruce is kind of off the list for me for any of these. some days I *am* Bruce. and then some days I am Helena, telling him to go to hell. the thing is, I don't give a damn about his approval, so I make it stick. =P

I'd be a really bad role model for poor Jay. even with the killing. heh.

also, late comment is late.
