#also dick passing down the nightwing mantel to tim is actually smthin i've never thought of but omg i would love to see that explored

[silent-wolf]

omg you are so right about people getting tim and dick’s relationship wrong like first of all dick was not the one to give robin to damian it was ALFRED ( he sent him to save tim) dick just did not take it away plus robin was never bruce’s to give it was and always has been dick’s plus the writers messed up so bad cause it was the perfect opportunity to have dick propose the nightwing mantel

plus the whole “dick wanted to send tim to arkham” pisses me off so bad cause no he did not ? all he did was suggest therapy and considering how tim lost many people at that time it is valid like if my little sibling came to me to say that our father is alive after we buried him i would also believe he was in denial again tim’s feelings were valid BUT SO WERE DICK’S AND PEOPLE FORGET THAT my man had to take on the batman mantel even though he deapised it and had to look after two of his siblings not to mention all the responsibilities with wayne enterprise and all moreover alfred left him alone during that time ( i am tired of fanon treating alfred as a saint when he is not)

it makes me so upset when ppl basically erase the entirety of their brother-isms bc of this one comic 😭😭😭 like dc hand fed us literally the best slow burn strangers-to-brother's arc we could've ever had and now we can't get shit !! it's lowk annoying when ppl forget js how bad of a headspace dick was in during this time, like my man was going through it- both of them were grieving and fans of either dick or tim shitting on the other as if processing trauma and grief is all sunshine and rainbows. ugh UGHHH if anyone wants to read some #quality tim-dick bonding read batman prodigal <3
