The implementation of Tim’s cowl
I know the water sprayed by dragon is actually very dangerous, but this animation is really cute🥹
Tim who isn’t actually a very ‘good’ person.
He’s not a bigot or against minorities, nor does he do anything to violate someone’s right or beliefs, but he can just be… a prick?
Like he isn’t a victim of Damian most of the time because he’s antagonistic towards a literally child, assassin or not. He’s not a total dick, but he doesn’t really show much empathy towards Damian for a while and with his hatred of the League I wouldn’t be surprised if part of that was prejudice against Damian. (Especially if it’s one of the universe where Taliah drugged Bruce, he could maybe even blame Damian for that subconsciously.)
He’s also a womaniser, given he’s one who respects woman’s right and works to support them (unless it’s 1990 Tim, which is a whole other can of worms.) He has partners coming in and out and sure part of that is commitment issues and having to lie to partners about either identity, but often it just seems like he’s having fun and nothing else. If he explains this to his partner at the time, good for them, but it doesn’t really seem like that at times.
He’d also bordering on the line between cocky in a self assured way and cocky in an overconfident asshole way. He’s smart, not get me wrong, but there are people smarter than him and while he could out smart some big names, sometimes he bites off more than he can chew.
Same goes with his own contingency plans, I get the feeling he makes just… a few too many. I get why he does, what I think is a bit off about this is how he seemingly doesn’t see anything wrong at all with making plans to terminate his friends and seems to be lacking remorse for it even if he wouldn’t want to actively do it.
Tim’s loose morals are a bit different as there are many heroes and instances in which I’m like, yeah fair enough I wouldn’t save that guy either. Plus, the reason he became Robin was because Bruce was harming innocent people, not Two Face or Riddler.
He’s far more the comic made trope of a ‘Billionaire Playboy Philanthropist’ than Brucie had ever really been.
He’s actually a bit arrogant and actually acts like a playboy, not as a persona but for real. Even Tony Stark has been portrayed to be playing up his character where I feel like Tim doesn’t as much.
He’s genuinely a sneaky little shit, arrogant and cocky and too smart for his own good.
Man’s body count is double digits and neither of those numbers are under 5, and that’s not even the amount of people he’s blown up.
Flash: what the hell happened with no metas in gotham?
Batman: Signal is a special case, I trust him solely as one of gotham’s vigilantes-
Flash: What? No. I’m talking about the blue one. I saw him lift like, 1000 pounds the other day.
Batman: … it was that or therapy
Scarecrow observed the third Robin crossing the fear toxin-laced streets without a mask, his expression vacant and distant. Yet, it was clear that Tim wasn't under the influence of the toxin; instead, he had mentally retreated within himself.
Scarecrow (British accent): Hey, kid you've been breathing in my fear toxin for a few minutes. I usually relish this, but you're not screaming or crying. Everything good?
Robin: My dad just died, called me to tell me he loved me... I found his bloody corpse. No time to save him. I have since accepted that life is meaningless. I have nothing to fear because what's to fear when the people you love are dead and gone... what's the point to keep going when you can give up on life?
Scarecrow (analyzing the Robin): Deep depression from the loss of a parent is typical. This sadness will pass with time. Yet, the toll it takes on his spirit may leave scars that last far longer than the grief itself.
Robin (blinking quickly): There's no passing except both of them being dead. I feel nothing. There's no joy in anything, being happy, the moments with your parents, all gone. I embrace my sadness like a long lost lover.
Scarecrow (concerned): Right, right, where's Batman? You should go with him and rest for the night.
Batman walked over to Robin and placed one of the masks on his face then turned him away to head to the car.
Batman: You can sit this one out, okay? You're going through a lot and I don't want you to go insane from the toxin.
Robin (monotone): There's toxin? I wasn't aware, my whole life is nightmare.
Robin walked away while whisper singing a jazz song his father played for him once.
Robin: My lovin' daddy left his baby again/ Said he'd come back but he forgot to say when...
Scarecrow (calling out): Hey, kid I may be clinically insane, but don't give up on life. It'll get easier.
Robin waved his hand faintly while walking through the toxin fog to find the car, but his mind would rather stay outside and inhale the toxin and if it wasn't for Batman, he'd sit on the ground and breath the fear toxin deeply into his body.
Scarecrow: You're going to give him the usual antidote, correct?
Batman (nodding): Yeah, sorry about that, he's usually... not acting like me on a bad day.
Scarecrow: Seems he lost his father in a truly horrific manner. I'm guessing, which makes it hilarious to me, but I imagine a normal sane minded person would be shell shocked after it all settled in. He masks in front of others as a defense mechanism?
Batman: Yes, he masks it well with his friends, but when he's with me... that happens and I can not handle it.
Scarecrow (crossing his arms): He's continuing to fight crime with you which is admirable. Working is better than laying around all day. Grief can hinder progress in life, so you just have to keep moving. Be there for him, in times of grief a good support team helps bring the person back to normal.
Batman: Tsk... I forget you were a professor of psychology before you went insane, uh thanks. Can I just take you down and arrest you early then?
Scarecrow: Yeah, sure mate. I saw a young man who is reeling from his father's death and while I wish him the best, that's satisfying enough for me.
Batman glared at the man and punched him unconscious.
Batman (aggravated): You had to keep being an asshole, huh? Couldn't be nice for the entire conversation? Figures.
Okay so I’m actually insane about lycanwing Hiccup. I imagine he gets distracted by shiny objects and then gets embarrassed when people point it out
In Gotham University where Jason is studying literature, while Danny is studying engineering. Nobody knew how they even met, but they both showed up one day going out with each other.
Nobody knew why exactly Jason, who is an absolutely beefcake, built like a fridge, was with a guy that totally looks like a loser. He was tinier than Jason - a complete twink-, he often gets up to run to the bathroom citing stomach problems, once you set him off about something, he'll never stop yapping about it.
So, one brave student went up to Jason and asked the question. Why him?
Jason just smirked and tilted his head at Danny.
"Open your mouth."
Danny does so obligingly in confusion. What he didn't know nor did he realise was that once he did, his features started to distort, looking more...not human.
His teeth were sharp and jagged, his mouth was like a gaping abyss, so dark that the only thing that you see was more and more teeth. His eyes took more of a green hue, skin turned paler, and his freckles shone like the stars.
Danny then rolled out his tongue, which came out long and serpentine, flicking it a bit before rolling it back into his mouth, becoming normal once more.
Jason gave a lovesick lustful look at him.
The student immediately understood and simply said 'Have a nice day', because they get why. Teratophilia is a thing, people.
Tim: What’s it like being tall?
Tim: Is it nice?
Tim: Can you reach comfortably for the cupboards?
Jason: We live in constant fear of the short ones who, in my experience, will climb 4 chairs, 2 boxes, a small coffee table and 6 oddly placed stools to get what they want.
Damian, scowling: It was one time!
Bruce: You are grounded!
Jason (whole adult): You can't ground me!
Bruce: Grounded!
Jason: But I don't even live here!
Bruce turns Jason around and points to the stairs to his old room.
Bruce: The night, your room. Grounded!
Jason: This some bullshit!
Jason stomps upstairs and heads to his old room. A door slam is heard and then the sounds of random items being tossed around.
Bruce: He'll work it out his system. I'm going to bed.
Dick (looking at Tim confused and then Bruce as the man heads upstairs): Did you just ground a 23 year old?
Tim: And did it work?
Bruce: You forget I'm Batman.
Jason: "Hey I need some help."
Dick: "Okay, wait a second, I'm getting another call. Hello?"
Tim: "Hey Dick, don't get mad, but I need your help with something."
Dick: "One second." *returns to earlier call* "What did you do?"
Jason: "Me? It's not always me, you know--"
Dick: "Sure Jay, hold up, I'm getting another call. Hello?"
Damian: "Batgirl and I require assistance, can we use your apartment for something?"
Dick: "What did Jason do?"
Damian: "...why are you asking about Jason?"
Dick: "Because... ugh, never mind. What did you do?"
Stephanie, in the background: "What? He never asks Tim all these questions."
Tim, muffled: "He asks me all the time."
Dick: "Wait a second, why the hell are all of you together?"
Jason: "We'll tell you but you gotta open the front door first."
