"Give me my mozzarella sticks,"

The only acceptable trans Tim headcanon would be Tim introducing himself to the batfam as a boy from the get-go with such confidence that no one questions him. Then, his first solo case as Robin is investigating the disappearance of Jack and Janet Drake's "daughter," so he pretends to have a twin sister by forging a bunch of documents and photoshopping family pictures. He then fabricates evidence of her death, committing multiple crimes in the process, and holds a fake funeral at the end. Because if his previous name is dead to him, he's gonna kill it the Tim Drake way

Lol, I saw this on TikTok and thought I would share here, too. Credit goes to @rhondatoksaboutbooks on TikTok. The video can be found at this link.

Edit: I added image descriptions to the images. There is also a reblog with the image descriptions if that's easier for you. 😊

i’ve started getting so unreasonably cranky at those posts that are like ‘i’m sick of [aspect of popular media] someone should make [opposite thing]!!!’ by people who don’t seem invested in the idea they’re pitching as anything beyond a subversion of the norm. like ok. i see where you’re coming from but where are you actually going. look me in the eyes and give me one good reason you think that story concept is possible to pull off

Tim Drake needs to give his parents back the same energy they gave him his whole life

Janet: Tim, what are you wearing? There is a gala tonight, you should be dressed by now.

Tim: *sucks air in through his teeth* Oh, unfortunately, other plans came up. Have fun at the gala!

*Jack and Janet come back to the manor after a long flight with dozens of artifacts to unpack and no Tim in sight to help*

36 hours after they reached out, Tim left them a voicemail: I'll be out of town for the next few weeks. If you need anything Mrs. Mac comes by twice a week, but really try not to be a bother to her. She's getting up there in age.

*Jack and Janet at a party trying to talk up Brucie about their latest archeological digs*

Tim: Mother, Father, dear. Your digs really are interesting, but I'm sure Mr. Wayne has better things to do than listen to your ramblings about your- ah- hobby.

AU where Tim, age nine, walked three miles to his neighbor’s house, held up his bleeding hand to Alfred, and asked if he could please have a bandaid. He got stitches instead, and a hug from Dick, who squeezed him tight and asked, “Can we keep him?”

And then Tim never went home again.

He learns gymnastics with Dick and reads in the library with Jason. He shows Alfred how to reset the wifi and rambles on to Bruce about his latest obsession (shipwrecks), and he never sees his parents again.

Behind the scenes, there was a kid left alone in a mansion while a whole international incident played out. It included a kidnapping, a ransom, a failed hostage negotiation, and two dead parents never coming home.

It pokes at a wound in Bruce when he is told about the Drakes and he has always been productive in tragedy. He knows how to shove the hurt away and build something strong on top of it.

The adoption was seamless. The sell of the Drake Estate was effortless. The trust for Tim. The memorial. The scholarships in Jack and Janet’s names. Bruce does it all methodical and singleminded.

And somewhere. Somehow. They forget to tell Tim.

Sometimes he misses his mom and dad. He misses his old room and being alone in a big house, but months turn to years and he likes it here. He really does. He has brothers here and Alfred, and they say they’re his family. He likes that.

They said they wanted to keep him, so they kept him. Kept him forever.

Then Damian is there.

Tim comes home and there’s a new boy, about the age he was when they got him. Tim asks in a whisper, “Did they take you too?”

Tim: momma ain’t raise a quitter

Jason: well, actually, momma ain’t raise nobody

Tim: …

Tim: Maybe if you aimed to be a little more environmentally friendly in your business practices, Posion Ivy wouldn’t have held your board of directors hostage.

Lex Luthor: I know it was you that leaked those files, I just can’t prove it.

Tim: What? Me? Mr. Luthor, I’m shocked you’d think me capable of such a malicious act.

Lex, slamming his hands on the table, pointing at Tim: Listen here you little shit-

Tim: Hey don’t get mad at me because your security is shit.

Lex: You- I slept with your parents.

Tim: Liar.

Lex: maybe, but you can’t prove I didn’t.

Tim: Which…?

Lex: Parents was plural.

Tim: My mom and dad?

Lex: Yep.

Tim: Liar.

Lex: That’s not all. Ask Bruce what happened in 2002.

Tim: You really are evil you know.

Lex, sitting down: Thank you, I try.
