Attempting to write every prompt on this list! (Part 10/15, JayRoyTim)

-  “oh, you look- just wow.”

“Your tie is crooked,” Tim sighed, reaching for Jason and adjusting it. Jason let him, tilting his chin up slightly as Tim tightened it, just a bit. “There, better.” He smiled, leaning in and kissing Jason’s cheek. “You clean up so well honey.”

Jason chuckled, slid his arm around Tim’s waist, was ready to steal a kiss from those perfect lips, when steps on the warehome stairs distracted them, Roy calling out, “Hey, am I straight?”

He stopped at the bottom, Jason and Tim staking him in, and just… staring. He had his long hair swept back into a tight bun, his suit fitting him perhaps too well, the red of his shirt complimenting his eyes.

“Guys?” he asked, as moments ticked by in silence.

And then, Jason, “Oh. You…” he paused, cleared his throat, “You look- just-”

“Wow.” Tim now, squirming away from Jason’s hold and walking right over. Roy opened his mouth to tease them- but the words died when Tim grabbed him by his jacket lapels, pulling him in for the kind of kiss that left Roy’s lungs devoid of air.

Tim’s teeth dragged along his lip, and when he finally released Roy, there was Jason’s hand, on the back of his neck- holding him steady as he kissed him so deeply Roy’s knees felt weak. He grasped at Jason’s jacket, Felt one of Tim’s hands sliding down his chest, curving out to grasp at his waist.

“Not, fair,” Roy managed, between kisses. It was never fair when they teamed up against him. Jason chuckled against his lips, before taking a fell step back.

“Sorry Roytoy, you just look too good not to devour.”

Roy huffed, reaching up to pluck at his own tie. “You didn’t answer my question.”

“If you’re straight? Baby, no,” Tim teased, and oh, Roy could smack him.

And he did, right on the ass. Tim jumped, laughing, and Roy grinned. “My tie dumbass.”

“Straight enough,” Jason decided, thinking even if it wasn’t, Roy was distracting enough cleaned up as he was that no one would notice.

Roy nodded. “We should go before we’re late. The last thing I want is Batdad mad at me because I made his kids late to one of his charity events.”

“Oh he’ll live,” Jason said, even as he turned, heading for the door. “Besides, you walk in looking like you are, and no one will want to pay attention to Bruce Wayne.”

“Jason’s right,” Tim said, gently nudging Roy to get him heading for the door as well. “One look at you and everyone will want to eat you alive.” Tim hugged one of Roy’s arms as they walked, leaning into him- looking at him as if everyone meant him and Jason.

Roy sure as hell hoped it did.

roytoy is finally here

[nellharper]

some of my favorites: babybird, little wing, tim-tac, jayla, jaybird, dickie-bird, timbo, replacement, roytoy, babybat, timbers

Okay I got a question for you, resident Batfam Expert! I’ve been reading a lot of fanfic recently (because I love pain) and I was wondering how many of the pet names the family calls each other are canon? Because they have A LOT and they’re all pretty consistent throughout the writings. Some of the ones I’ve noted regularly are Baby Bird, Little Wing, Jay, Jaylad, Jace, Timmers, Timbo, Dickie, Dickiebird, and then Bruce calling his kids ‘sweetheart’. (Adorable) Anyway, thanks! Don’t feel a need to rush in answering :) I’m in no hurry

Sorry it took me so long to get to all of these, I’ve spent the last few weeks scrounging up every single resource I could get my hands on so that I could make a comprehensive list of which nicknames are canon and which are fanon and it took a SUPER long time. The bottom line is I ended up accidentally making a whole-ass Google Slides for every single batkid nickname, and while the whole project isn’t anywhere near finished yet, I managed to complete the slides needed to answer all of these questions. So...yeah! Here’s what I found:

Dickie/Dickie-Bird:

Jason seems to be the main nickname-user of the family, so aside from the aforementioned comics, there isn’t very much content of Dick being called “Dickie” or “Dickie-Bird”. (I also want to bring up “Big Bird,” which I see Jason calling Dick sometimes in fanfics. That one’s not canon anywhere, unfortunately.) Dick used to be called “Dickie” sometimes as a term of endearment during his circus days, but after that it’s not likely you’ll see any of his family members calling him something other than Dick. 

Little Wing:

Sadly, “Little Wing” hasn’t been used in any canon content after this comic, which is a major bummer since the fandom has turned it into one of Jason’s most popular nicknames (from Dick at least).

Jay/Jace/Jaylad/Jaybird:

(I didn’t list the comic sources for the more widely used nicknames since they’re so common in comics that you could find them pretty much anywhere.) 

I’d say that Bruce called Jason “Jay” far more during his Robin days than he does now, though that could be attributed to their more distant relationship nowadays. (Or maybe I just didn’t happen to read the specific modern comics in which he called Jason “Jay” or “Jace/Jase”.)

Yeahhh, sorry about this one. “Jaylad” is kind of the Schrödinger's cat of nicknames. The fandom ended up misconstruing the term over time. and losing the comma between “Jay” and “lad” so it became “Jaylad” and everyone just stuck with it.

The main person who seems to use this one is Roy Harper, as I haven’t yet found a comic in which one of Jason’s family members calls him “Jaybird”. You can open pretty much any comic with both Jason and Roy in it and expect Roy to say it at least once.

Timmy/Timbers/Timbo:

I haven’t seen anyone calling Tim “Timmers” in canon, but otherwise, most of the other common nicknames derived from Timothy are canon.

Pretender/Replacement:

I always found it wild how Jason never once called Tim “Replacement” in a comic, and yet we all managed to latch onto it anyway and make it his go-to nickname for Tim? That takes some dedication, man. Otherwise, Jason called Tim “Pretender” a few times during Batman: Hush, and that was about it. 

Baby Bird/Baby Bat:

I know a lot of people hate the nickname “Babybird” (for whatever reason), but honestly, I’m really hoping that DC makes it a thing because dammit, we deserve this breadcrumb at least. As of right now, the only batkid who has ever been called “Babybird” was Damian, and it was by his mom. (In fanon, it’s typically Tim who is called “Babybird” while Dick is “Dickie-Bird” and Jason is “Little Wing”. Who decided this, I have no idea but I’m not complaining.) I also included “Baby Bat” since I see that one pretty often too, and that one is sadly not canon either. The DC writers really don’t want us getting our hands on any family fluff whatsoever, huh.

As for Bruce, I don’t think he’s ever called his kids a term of endearment more emotional than “son” or “pal” because he has the emotional capacity of a dried-up raisin. All of those nicknames like “sweetheart,” “honey,” “pumpkin,” and any other names a parent might call their child are banned from Batman’s dictionary as far as the writers are concerned. Will that make me stop having Bruce call his kids “sweetheart” in my fics every chance I get? Absolutely not.

“I’m a drug addict, you’re my favorite poison”

Ft. Roy’s wet hair

[valiantnomore]

Um so I decided to post a fic for the first time in a million years because I’m working on letting things be “complete” in my brain even when the original idea was like a full novel’s worth of content.

Maybe someday.

But here’s a Roy Harper fic for those of you that care!

[excessively-english-jd]

a) Roy and Jason go out for drinks

b) Roy will call Dick to check on Jason if Jason himself isn't answering

Why is this game so correct about everything <3

I’m back on working with this fandom (I’ve been really inactive, but I still really love this ship). For anyone who has been waiting for an update-- here you go! For any new readers it might draw in-- welcome, and get comfy cause this might take a while, haha!

[inertia-is-a-statue-of-a-man]

I’m feeling very called out right now, all because I sent him a meme about his deck

A larger version of what he sent me before Wynd bullies me into sharing:

[ja0netholmes]

Drawing my comfort characters. Started with Roy.

[excuseme-howdareyou]

Next time on 'Are You Okay?'

Roy contemplating starting a cooking channel on YouTube while Kinley and Jason bicker in the background.

[flashoutoftime]

“ at every table, i’ll save you a seat. ”

“Careful Roy- people might get the wrong impression with that.” 

He bat his eyelashes at the other ginger with a playful grin, but silently he leans his shoulder against Roy’s for a long moment, a gesture familiar from childhood to mean silent thanks.

[ya-boy-roy-toy]

Indeed, I very much do.

Best part is, I get to come home to that (sometimes I still can’t believe it!)

let’s take a moment to appreciate jason’s body

[redarsed]

REQUEST, FOR WRITERS

So, a while go, I saw a “How to care for your Jaybird” by Roy. And Now I kinda wanna see a “How to care for your RoyToy” by Jason. Please, you wonderful, and talented people, make it happen :3 <3

Young!Roy Harper Headcanons

I’ve been writing a lot of spicy older Roy lately, so here’s some sweet young Roy to balance it out (I’ll probably do more for this later)

-He was just a ball of endless energy as a kid, and even into his teenage years

-The only thing that could get him to sit down and focus was activities for his hands to keep them busy (and not destructive)

-The standout favorites were coloring books and legos

-Roy would always try really hard to stay in the lines of the coloring book art, finding frustration at any mistakes he made

-Legos were both the best and the worst: he could build almost anything that he overactive imagination could up with, but he would always try to bring them everywhere with him

-This led to many a stepped-on lego and a irked Ollie

-As Roy gets older and more articulate in his abilities physically and mentally, Dinah starts buying him science kits

-This went on for a while… until the Rocket Incident…

-The ban on science equipment was eventually lifted, but with heavy restrictions on reactionary kits

-Eventually Roy started bringing his archery training into his makeshift lab, discovering that he could modify his arrows

-The first Harper Trick Arrow was a Water Balloon arrow

-The first target of said arrow was Oliver Queen

-This creative outlet lasted until he got too old for Ollie to play along with his “childish antics”

-After that, Roy went on to find other means of dealing with this new kind of energy (his psychiatrist would call it “anxiety”)

-Dinah and Ollie should have taught him what destructive activities were like

-Instead, he had to learn the hard way

-And alone.
