I want Zatanna to be Amistads Godmother.

And I won't shut up about it.

My favorite thing: Thinking about how much fun Dick (the trolliest Robin) would have pranking the Young Justice team on April Fool’s Day: 

Conner gets out of the shower to discover that the clothes he’d left had mysteriously been replaced with a pink bunny suit

M'gann tries to watch tv but finds that every channel on the television has been replaced by either Bee Movie or Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up music video and she doesn’t know which is worse

Artemis wakes up from a nap and doesn’t notice someone shaved off part of her eyebrow 

Kaldur takes a swim but discovers that someone slipped dye in the pool and now his hair and skin is green

Raquel bites into an apple but realizes too late that it’s actually just a fake apple skin filled with ketchup

Roy goes into his apartment but is startled to find that every single surface has been covered completely in Shrek faces 

Zatanna tries doing her homework but each of her pens self destructs five seconds after she touches it and turns into a flower (Dick just didn’t have it in him to do a mean prank, but he couldn’t leave her out of the April Fool’s fun)  

Someone mysteriously tampered with Red Tornado’s programming and now he can only speak in rhymes 

But he saves the best for Wally, because every year they have a competition to see who can prank the other the most. Dick has won four years in a row, whereas Wally has never succeeded in pranking Dick once

Just a few of the many pranks Dick has pulled on Wally this April Fool’s Day:

- Replacing the lenses of his goggles with pictures of naked Aquaman - Paying everyone five bucks to call him Waldo and Speedy the entire day - Changing the ringer on his phone to a recording of Conner screaming - Convincing Zatanna to curse Wally to sing the entirety of Bohemian Rhapsody whenever someone says the word “whelmed”

One of my absolute favorite things about Young Justice is the mind link. Seriously, just imagine all of the crazy stuff the team can do when they can actually read each other’s minds during a mission:  

- Infinite Rickrolls  - Wally making an obvious effort to not call Robin “Dick” when they’re linked and getting really frustrated    - Being spoiled about Christmas presents and surprise parties  - When one member gets hurt everyone feels it  - Dick and Wally trying to see how loud they can scream in their minds until Kaldur starts yelling at them   - Something blows up and everyone simultaneously goes “same"  - Everyone cringing when Conner and M'gann have really loud dirty thoughts about each other  - Hearing Kaldur mentally sigh at least fifteen times a mission  - When one person has a song stuck in their head, everyone gets the song in their head   - This of course leads to the entire team becoming a silent choir as they all mentally belt out Let It Go together while beating up bad guys  - When Raquel first joined, they learned that ”??????“ makes an actual sound in ones head  - Zatanna thinking backwards and giving everyone a headache  - They even linked up Wolf once just to see what it was like and they heard weird stuff like “Boy? Boy is bird?? He is puppy??? Need cuddles??? Must protect!!!” “Superboy!💗💗💗💗 Human! Best human! Best human in whole world!” “I good boy?? Treats????” “BANE BAD. KILL BANE. HE HURT BABIES?!?!?! BITE. BITE. BITE!!! I TREATS??? I DID GOOD??????” It was definitely a learning experience about how dogs work, and they also learned about how Wolf sees Robin as a small puppy in need of protection, so that was fun to tease him about.   - Conner screams even in his mind  - There is no privacy whatsoever, so that’s how the team learned things about each other that they will definitely regret knowing  - Artemis and Wally flirting all the time just to make everyone uncomfortable - Falling asleep on stakeouts leads to seeing each other’s dreams and even interacting in them - Once Wally had a nightmare about his father and everyone saw it, though Wally had no idea and was confused when they spent the rest of the week being really nice to him - On really traumatic missions, sometimes one member will get flashbacks and all of them see it too   - Dick singing Bohemian Rhapsody for five hours straight  - The team learning that M'gann curses like a sailor in her head   - Kaldur mentally goes “WTF” so many times they lost count  - Silently judging everyone together 

I just really love the mind link concept okay?
