#Having Tim stalk Riddler and accidentally get adopted instead of Batman was the best idea I’ve ever had

Whoops I accidentally found my will to write with a silly little au my friend and I made only it’s just little snippets of Bernard and Tim being parents while in their villain era (Tim is a Cobblepot, long story, Riddler accidentally brought home a stray), except their child has lightning powers and is also a Raiden clone from another world (again another long story, Liu Kang was making baby clones of the Kombatants but then Kitana caught him so he started yeeting them through worlds, Tim and Bernard wound up with Raiden and Jason actually adopted Kung Lao). And Tim kind of took after Oswald so he’s also running a club and doing a lot of business, shady or otherwise, making connections, etc. and Bernard runs the front of house for The Den (Tim’s club) so sometimes their son is there but he’s wearing a dragon costume so it’s fine, he’s like their mascot.
And it’s just my two favorite nerds doing their best to raise a child who has weird powers, but they have the support of their villain/murder family and Oswald and Ed/Riddler are proud grandparents and Steph is the favorite bi aunt and also godmother (and also Spoiler has become more like Red Hood these days. She’s realized being friends with Tim that things would never improve without getting your hands dirty. She kills people now, but mostly she just controls part of the city and helps Red Hood out. Also she’s dating Cassie/Wonder Girl but that’s not important.)
#ravenpuff rambles#it’s just anhhhhhhhh#the layers! the fucking layers to this au fuck!!!!!#I’m kind of upset the first motivation I get for writing I can only share with one person because no one else will get it#but also ahhhhh I love it so much!!! I love them so much#god murder family is fucking incredible I wish dc Twitter knew#like I wish y’all could see the beauty we’ve created#Having Tim stalk Riddler and accidentally get adopted instead of Batman was the best idea I’ve ever had#it’s become something incredible#Steph fans I hope you know she has a wonderful arc in this au#she was the third Robin instead of Tim#not so much because she wanted to at first but because Batman caught her doing her Spoiler shit and said it was too dangerous and insisted#on training her. you know so another child didn’t die on his watch.#she gets to be a part of Young Justice and one of their founding members#she’s even their leader partially because well Robin#that’s where she meets Cassie and after an enemies arc they become friends and then girlfriends#Also Steph and Tim fake date off and on for Years to fuck with Batman#they did actually date for almost a year before realizing they were better friends#but they’re best friends and ride or die.#fucking love Steph in this au and also in general#also good news she did still hit Tim with a brick the first time they met#If Riddler hadn’t been concerned about his child Steph absolutely would have died at that moment
