#the maids dress isnt important to the story but it adds to Tims oddness because... he doesnt have to wear it?

my Alfred's Apprentice au.... I have fought off the urge to write it for like three months. I have like four wips. i cannot give in.

However i can give yall my ideas for it 😚✌️

So, Jason dies, uh oh spagettio, but instead of trying to be Robin, Tim observes how Bruce tends to listen to Alfred, and when the boy realises the Brit is the only one who cleans that big ass mansion, he goes "well my parents keep telling me to get an internship so it works out!"

Tim doesn't want to be a butler, since that's Alfred's job, so he decides the next best thing is a maid. He's very dedicated to the role and doesn't mind crossdressing, so he orders a maids dress and then shows up at Wayne Manner and Alfred is like "this child is mental... I'm gonna hire him though, i'm bloody tied of cleaning this house on my own-"

Bruce starts notes left everywhere. "remember to take a shower, Master Wayne." "The vase has been replaced, please dont smash it again. Here are some articles about grief and anger management." "Master Wayne, you have a message from Lucious Fox. He says you need to come to a meeting tomorrow." "If you promise to eat actual food for dinner tonight, I won't tell Alfred you have broken ribs."

Bruce is oh so confused because who is writing these notes??? He would assume it was Alfred, but why would the man talk about himself in third person?

Cue Bruce leaving his room before the sun sets for once and seeing this random child just dusting a lamp.
