#third Robin

[jokewishes]

At some point of their lives Damian and Duke are going to realize that Tim is their 'cool big brother' and its going to change their world view

[priv-heree]

Just a reminder to y'all that Tim is actually THIS BUFF

I understand that as Robin he was a twink... But guys, he as Red Robin is just... just... 🫦🫦

Idk why in Fanfics people describe him as being so skinny

[estupidapendejaestupida]

You know how Tim's known as the most techy Robin? The most logical one, very nerdy, most rational and intelligent, very into computers? The most organized and meticulous one? With a plan, a way, a solution, a method to everything always?

It's because when he took the mantel, Batman was doing none of that shit. Like, he just stopped updating the batcomputer and uploading his patrol reports and everything was a chaos.

And then Tim came into the scene. He took one look at the chaos Bruce was living in; the batcomputer so outdated, the files just lying anywhere in the floor, bottles and cans of alcohol littered around, parts of the costume all over the table, blah, blah.

It was just terrible. A mess. Ugly. And Bruce was uncaring, for himself and the others around him.

So Tim cleaned up the place. And updated the cases with the information he had (very few). Organized cases for Bruce to start to follow. Created a schedule for training, patrolling, investigating, staying the night, etc. Started to do hacking for their cases. Learned how to use the tech in the cave to perfection. Fixed the security measures. Infiltrated in the police's files and security. Larned how to programe and fix the batcomputer. He learned, he did all of that, just by himself.

He pulled Bruce piece by piece. With 0 to no help. Because he helped Alfred, and Barbara, and Dick. If not as much as he helped Bruce, but he did helped them.

He was parenting. And he nailed it. Because he got Bruce (and Batman) to be himself again, to take the matters into his own hands, to care for himself, to survive after his son's death.

And even after Bruce recovered, Tim kept doing most tech-work related.

So that's why he's the most nerdy, methodical, organized, rational, intelligent, measured, prepared, etc. Robin.

Because he had to be. He needed to be. For Bruce's sake.

And he would never shake that mentality off. That was the Robin Batman needed, so he would never stop being that Robin.

Tim: I didn't ask for attitude.

Jason: It comes for free.

[spocks-husband]

Just realized I've never really drawn my favorite Robin? At least not on his own? Anyways here's my design for his uniform-- it's missing something but I don't know what and it's severely pissing me off.

Here’s the maybe future sticker/keychain of Tim

Finally yaaaay, I’ll try to keep up with the rest though

[multiverseworm]

Why I think Tim Drake finds himself identified with the plot of The Breakfast Club.

(This is a follow up on my previous post about the Batfamily Letterboxd reviews)

I do believe Tim would not only find the film to be boring at first when Steph suggests that the family should watch it during their famous family nights, but he would also find himself unable to accept the emotional wreckage he would just have experienced after finishing it.

Let me explain.

It could be argued that the Batfamily dynamics, most specifically, the siblings ones could be represented by the characters in the movie, as well as their personalities and experiences.

However, I would like to take this a step further and say that each member of The Breakfast Club, the struggles, masks, and both personal and interpersonal relationships represent a stage of what Tim has got to go through in his life. Let’s go through each:

• Claire Standish (The Princess):

Claire comes from a wealthy family and is part of the popular crowd. She is used to being admired but also feels isolated because of the pressures that come with her social status. Underneath, she is insecure and deeply unhappy. She also feels like she is only valued for her looks and status.

Stage> Tim’s pre-Robin life.

Tim came from a wealthy family, but he wasn’t spoiled or arrogant. His parents were often away on business, which left him feeling emotionally neglected. He had money, but not much real connection with others. Making him feel unhappy and unfulfilled.

• Allison Reynolds (The Basket Case):

Allison is an outsider who has no real friends and is used to being ignored. She suffers from extreme loneliness and neglect since her parents completely ignore her. She has no sense of identity and feels invisible. She doesn’t actually have a reason to be in detention, she just showed up because she had nothing better to do. Throughout the movie, Allison opens up to the others and shows a more vulnerable side. Claire gives her a makeover, which symbolizes her desire to be noticed.

Stage> Tim decides to be Robin.

Tim had always been a very intelligent and observant child, regardless of his lack of interaction with others, he could study them quite well. When this trait helps him find who Batman and Nightwing are, and uses that same skill to find them and make himself heard despite this being something he is not used to doing. The mantle of Robin becomes his makeover.

• Brian Johnson (The Brain):

Brian is a top student, likely in advanced classes. He’s an overachiever who is socially awkward and desperate for approval. He wants to fit in but doesn’t know how. His self-worth is entirely tied to his grades and academic success. His parents pressure him to be perfect, and he feels like a failure when he falls short. He was given detention for bringing a flare gun to school after failing shop class, his first real academic failure. This hints at unaliving thoughts, as he implies he considered using the gun on himself. Over the course of the movie, Brian opens up about the intense pressure he faces.

Stage> Tim faces the pressure of being Robin after Jason.

Tim quickly realized the importance and heaviness of the mantle he had been passed down. All of this, mixed with the constant struggle of having to pull Bruce out of the shadows that grief was causing on him, made him feel the need of having to live up to the image of someone he knew the bat had chosen himself. This led him to have an immense lack of self confidence, now needing to prove to Bruce, Dick, and everyone else involved that he was not Jason, nor he wanted to be. He wanted to be better, but into the eyes of a grieving man, he always fell short.

• Andrew Clark (The Athlete):

Andrew’s father pushes him to be the best, and he feels obligated to live up to that expectation. He is confident and friendly but deeply insecure. His biggest fear is disappointing his father, who only values him for his athletic success. Throughout the movie, Andrew realizes that his self-worth shouldn’t come from his father’s approval.

Stage> Being valued for who he is by Batman.

By this point, Tim had faced many challenges as both himself and as Robin. He was not accepted as Robin at first by Bruce, but eventually, he earned his trust with determination and skills. Batman had to push him, in ways that were completely different from the previous Robins. The detective potential, the strategic nature, the methodical approach. Tim was a natural that Bruce was ultimately proud had found his way to him. And Tim learned not to depend on whatever he was similar or not with the past people who’ve had held the mantle before.

• John Bender (The Criminal):

Sarcastic, rebellious, and aggressive on the outside, but vulnerable and deeply hurt underneath. He uses his tough-guy persona as a shield to protect himself.

He hates authority figures because they remind him of his father. He believes he is destined to fail, as he has never been given a chance to succeed. Over the course of the movie, Bender goes from being hostile and defensive to showing his vulnerability. He shares a heartbreaking story about his father burning him with a cigar, which helps the others understand why he acts the way he does. At the end, as he walks across the football field and raises his fist in the air, it symbolizes his defiance but also his newfound sense of hope.

Stage> Red-Robin era, post-Bruce’s alleged death.

After Bruce was presumed dead and Dick had to assume the mantle of Batman for a while, it began one of the most difficult times for Tim. He not only was disregarded by his own family when he firmly believed that Bruce was still alive, but he was left with a sense of betrayal once Dick decided to take Damian Wayne under his wing as his Robin, removing a mantle he had earned through sweat and tears. He rebelled and went solo, beating people to near death in hopes of finding the truth about what he believed has been a lie, and that Bruce would be found.

Tim doesn’t stay in that dark state of mind permanently, but he struggles with it on and off depending on the circumstances. And just like Bender, once he has been able to let himself show vulnerability despite his family’s troubled relationship, he finds himself receiving support from a new found family in the teams he’s led: Young Justice and the Teen Titans.

[jokewishes]

I have a hc that Tim has a growth spurt sometime after he turns eighteen,, Dick hasn't seen him in a while and is so excited to see him again

but

Tim who has been shorter than Dick the whole time they have known each other is suddenly taller than him

Dick is inconsolable, he refuses to stand next to Tim and finches every time someone mentions Tim being taller now. Tim on the other hand is absolutely gleefull
