Jiraiya probably didn't expect David Slack -- the writer who created the Teen Titans characters, Beast Boy and Terra -- to comment on this tweet.

Slack was none too pleased with Jiraiya's interpretation of the characters' friendship and schooled him on the basics of autonomy and genuine friendship.

Well said, Slack.
