Canon

Young Justice (TV series)

Bart and Jaime are both introduced in Young Justice: Invasion, the 2nd season of the show. They become fast friends and Bart eventually reveals that the future he comes from is dominated by the Reach. He has been trying to find a way to save Jaime and the Earth at large from falling under their control.

After Young Justice: Invasion Bart and Jaime's canon interactions are very limited and they are both implied/outright stated to be in relationships with other people.

Common Tropes in Fanworks

  • Fluff - A very common genre.
  • Angst - Often connected to Jaime's role in the future Bart originates from.
  • Friends to Lovers - A popular trope stemming from their close friendship in canon.
  • Enemies to Lovers - Some fans enjoy exploring a more angsty dynamic than canon, especially regarding Bart's plans and attitude early on as he is actively working to stop the future that Jaime previously helped bring about. Fanworks may include Bart trying/planning to kill Jaime outright instead of attempting to befriend him as in canon.
