Switched At Birth - Blog Posts

Just an idea I wanted to share.

Danny and Damian are clearly not brothers. What they are, is switched at birth.

Talia messed up, took a mission too close to her due date, and went into labor early so she wound up in a civilian hospital. The Fentons were researching nearby ruins for ghost history when Maddie went into labor.

Two nearly identical black haired little boys born to foreigners in a small hospital in the middle of nowhere. Mistakes happen, and the babies were switched.

The truth doesn't come to light until Damian shows up at Bruce's place when he's 13, nearly 14. (Canon timeline is full of wibbly wobbly stuff.) Of course, he cares for the boy immediately, but also does a DNA test assuming Talia is lying. Clearly Talia is lying because the results show Damian is neither Bruce's nor Talia's.

Damian nearly has a breakdown and together he and Bruce track Talia back down for answers, but she's as confused as they are. She carried this baby and Bruce was, not her first lover, but definitely the last. What do you mean the DNA doesn't match?

As Talia, Bruce, and Damian begin their search for answers, in a small town in Illinois, an eerily similar looking boy, who was routinely exposed to the Lazarus Pits in vitro and has since been routinely exposed to ectoplasm, is stepping into a failed portal on the dare of his friends.

fascinating. Damian 100% breaks down after the DNA test. When he was first introduced to Bruce he was absolutely obsessed and taught by the League that he must fill in his fathers legacy. Blood relations are VERY important to the Al Ghuls. Damian figuring out he's not the rightful heir would crush him.

Damian is fully devoted to the mission of finding Danny. Does he want to battle him for the true title of the heir to the League of Assassins? Or does he try to convince Danny to take his place?

i don’t think ppl talk about these shows enough! (or at all)

Can someone please tell me when I'm going to start liking Emmet again? I can't imagine it, but I know he and Bay will probably get together again soon.

How do you even begin to forget and forgive everything he's done? I really liked him at first, but he just went downhill from there.

He kissed Daphne and never told Bay.

He treated Bay horribly when he was mad about her meddling. I get that he was upset, but seeing it from her perspective made it so frustrating. Cut her some slack! I was already annoyed at him and than BAM!

He cheated on her and then acted like everything was fine.

He played the biggest victim, and the other characters encouraged it—"Poor sweet Emmet, he's so sorry."

He suffered no real consequences. The contrast between how people treated him vs. how they treated Simone was wild. He was back to being friends with both siblings within weeks like nothing happened, while she was ostracized. Pure misogyny.

He acted insanely jealous of Bay’s only friend at school as if she didn’t already have enough problems.

And now he’s acting all sad because he doesn’t want them to be just friends?

I wanted to grab him and throw him into a river. The audacity, the nerve. If he can't even be her friend after everything HE did to her, at a time when she's already overwhelmed and just wants a friend, then he doesn't deserve to be in her life at all.

Switched at birth is filled with sapphics for the ones with eyes to see.

If I had a nickel for every show I’ve seen where the best character is named Regina who’s straight according to the canon but has a surprisingly sapphic feeling relationship with her coparent, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that its happened twice.

Favorite on-screen and off-screen parent-child dynamic between 2 talented and beautiful actors (Daniel Durant and Marlee Matlin)!!! My personal DWSA headcanon is that Fanny Gabor has such a close relationship with Moritz Stiefel because she was also abused by one of her parents as a child, but she didn't let that affect her in the same way that Moritz was affected gravely by the abuse his father dealt him when he found out that he "failed". I also think it's possible that she appointed herself as Moritz's distant yet loving guardian when he was just born and knew that someday the boy and her own son Melchior would become friends. That's why I think Fanny is so sweet to Moritz because she's been in his life for a little longer than Moritz implied to remember.
