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 He took one look at the chaos Bruce was living in; the batcomputer so outdated, the files just lying anywhere in the floor, bottles and cans of alcohol littered around, parts of the costume all over the table, blah, blah.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

Commissioner Gordon Meets the 3rd Robin

Jim Gordon had seen two Robin's at this point and figured out Batman's civilian identity at this point, so him arriving with a third Robin makes him finally tell Batman he knows he's also Bruce Wayne.

Commissioner Gordon waited on the roof for Batman, like he usually did, but this time he could sense something crazy was about to happen more than usual when dealing with a man who wore a leather bat suit.

Batman (hesitant): Commissioner... Gordon.

Gordon turned around and once he saw the new Robin (Tim Drake), he immediately closed his eyes and shook his head like a disappointed father.

Gordon (jaded): You gotta be kidding me.

Batman nodded in agreement.

Batman (ashamed): I'm aware how odd this looks. I can acknowledge the weirdness at this point. To be fair though... I made it clear I didn't want him to be my new Robin. Tell him, Robin.

Robin!Tim (looking at the bat signal): That's the bat signal... I'm next to it!

Batman groaned, covering his his eyes.

Gordon (tight smile): You sure are kid, you sure are... Batman, he looks the same age as the other kid. Nice to meet you, new Robin.

Robin!Tim: Sup Commissioner Gordon, I met your daughter she's pretty cool.

Gordon (accepting all of this): I raised her well, thanks. I like your suit.

Robin!Tim: Thanks, I added pants. It's form fitting, it works.

Batman (not sure how to word his defense): I'm aware that... I said I would not have another Robin but after needing his assistance I... adopted him. Sort of. Okay, this one came to me. I- I can tell by your expression that, that didn't help the situation.

Gordon sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

Robin!Tim (hands on his hips): I earned this roll, nothing weird about that.

Gordon: Fair point from the third child sidekick. Batman, at this point I'm not even shocked that you have a new Robin and I like his energy, but um... um... Do you have a specific preference for short, black-haired boys?

Batman glanced at Robin then shrugged because he couldn't think of a good response.

Robin!Tim (confused): Why did you phrase it like that?!

Gordon: I have dealt with this man having three robins at this point and yes it's been three because the first one had a different skin tone and was adorable, the second one was funny, but cussed me out at random and you are very pale, but all of them have had black hair... what is going on?!

Batman (exhausted with life): Honestly, it's a very weird coincidence, but a coincidence nonetheless. That is the least of the questions you need to ask me at this point.

Gordon (sighing): Fair enough, what's his story?

Robin!Tim: I stay with Batman so he doesn't kill himself or murder so many criminals .

Batman (exhausted): Hn, thank you, Robin... that was what you should tell a police chief.

Gordon: Nah, that's the best answer he could have given me in this situation. Can I talk to you in private real quick, Batman?

Batman: Sure. I'm kind of accepting of this part of my hero life. Robin, um, stand here and don't eavesdrop on our conversation.

Robin!Tim: I don't like standing still for long periods of time... I'm just going to spin around my bo staff while you talk to Commissioner Gordon.

Batman: That works for me.

Batman walked off with Gordon to a corner of the roof, a good distance from Robin. Robin eagerly tossed his bo staff in the air and caught if effortlessly.

Batman: Honestly people call me odd for wearing a bat suit but that is the thing that makes the most sense to me in my life. Plus I look awesome so you can't even critique the suit. You know?

Gordon groans, covering his face and trying to wonder how he should start his next statement.

Batman: I already know you're going to ask me some type of evasive question... go ahead ask it.

Gordon clasped his hands together and takes a deep breath.

Gordon (deadpan): I've known you for a fairly long time and I'm going to cut to the chase... when were you going to ever tell me that you're Bruce Wayne?

Batman (shocked): What? No ... No I'm not.

Gordon: Bruce, don't play dumb, I figured out you are the same person a while ago, but since you haven't 'trusted' me enough to tell and that is the third Robin, I felt it was necessary to remove this weird barrier you have. I'm not going to arrest you or anything, your secret is safe with me. I want an honest answer though, I promise nothing you say here will leave this roof.

Batman buried his head in his hands and let out a defeated groan. He didn't want to admit it, but at this point in his life he simply couldn't keep it secret.

Gordon: That confirmed it. I became suspicious after Barbara got shot. Jason Todd, your adopted son, turning out to be the Robin definitely verified it. Then CPS visited your place to investiage you about child abuse... that was fasinating because you looked panicked that day.

Batman (embarrassed): I can't believe this happening, right now.

Gordon: Hold on, I'm not done yet. The rest of Gotham bought the story that your adopted son somehow became Robin with a random guy who is Batman and you weren't Batman because "Why would someone like Bruce Wayne be Batman?" Freaking Gotham news, you're lucky that they're so believable.

Batman (serious): You're not going to tell anyone are you? I'm going through a lot at the moment.

Gordon patted Batman on the shoulder reassuringly.

Gordon: As I said, your secret will remain that. We've been through these couple of crazy years together, you were there for Barbara when she got shot, and I wasn't too hot about the fact that it was the Joker, but I got over it. You've never given me a reason to arrest you and I've learned to see as a friend. And much like when my daughter told me she's batgirl... I'm fine with it.

Batman remained silent, surprised that the police chief who he had known for over two decades was keeping his civilian identity secret.

Gordon (sincerely): You're my friend, don't worry about it.

Batman: Oh... you see us as friends too? I'm... You said that before, but huh, not really used to this, am I?

Gordon: I go through the same struggles. Do you want to go over the case with him in front of us or I don't know how to handle this, this is like your third Robin.

Gordon laughs as Batman groans embarrassed.

Batman: Yeah this kid is pretty smart so he can be listening in and circle back, Barbara told you she was Batgirl?!

Gordon: Oh yeah, but I figured it out a two years before she had told me. You guys got to remember, I'm a detective.

Batman: This might sound rude, but I did not think you were that good at your job, the police here are very corrupt.

Gordon (nods in agreement): Fair enough, let's head back to the kid and get this case started.

Gordon walked back over to Robin along with Batman. Batman looks dejected but Gordon pats him on the back to give him some type of sympathy.

heres what i think would happen if the core four started a band

none of their mentors would know, bc like yea obviously, the amazonians would proudly play their music aloud infront of evryone, speedster thru my extent of knowledge is like do u evn know the meaning of subtle i mean they would play their music vids infront of evryone, the bats r just like super nosy and tim figured leave them to find out on their own bc what is communication? And kon just didnt tell anyone out of pure spite, only ma kent pa kent and alfred know bc theres no hiding shit from them.

second they wouldnt be soley famous for hit songs, naur theyd be famous for being the most unpredictable effing band of all time, they have like no chill, just when the audience think they’ve got them pegged they do something wildly unexpected, whats their music genre? All of them. They once released a sneak peak to their next album and everyone thought it would be a heavy metal album, it was country music. The album after that was modern rock and pop if it counts for something atleast. They rarely ever keep only one genre of music in an album though, just when you think this is an album just full to the brim with break up songs the next song is gonna be the most hard core screaming (heavy metal basically) song abt growing up and drugs.

they have no sense of roles in the band they do whatever the fuck they want, 75% of the time tims the one singing with 20% cassie and the last 5% a mix of kon and bart.

They each play an instrument, usually its cassie on the bass, kon on lead guitar, bart on the drums and tim as the rythm guitarist and main vocalist but they switch up with no complaints if the song calls for different people on different instruments bc they have diff playing styles, they each have their own guitar solo each show bc theyr extra like that.

Once they bought in a piano, violin, cello and triangle bc they had a classical song on theyr list

They all have stage name given to them by the fans and they got tiny tattoos of them underneath theyr right eyes

Cassie has a tiny star bc her stage name is star, reason being she always wears atleast one item with a star on it to every show (along with a gold rope wrapped around her waist as a belt) (i also hc that instead of having super short hair she’d have a shaved side and her ends dyed gold at the tips with her hair stopping half way to her elbow)

Bart has a tiny lightning bolt bc his stage name is bolt, reason hes just fast af (hes usually rapping if singing) and the fans dig it. (His hair i keep as its true wild fluffy self bc its so bart for him to have it unconquered on his head jst sitting there)

Kon has a smol fire bc fans took to calling him flame aftr he accidentally set the stage on fire once (i see him keeping his yj98 hairstyle)

tim has a teeny kawaii-ish ghost bc fans started calling him ghost after he screamed his throat raw (like a banshee) during a performance. ( i honestly just hc time as @strange-birb ‘s secret band au tim bc im obsessed with how he looks there)

ALL of them have multiple piercings, Cassie has three ear piercings on each ear and an upper lip piercing. Kon has multiple ear piercing a nose piercing and a tongue piercing. Tim has four ear piercings per ear and his face is untouched. Bart has three ear piercings on each ear and a small stud on his nose.

I see cissie anita and greta watching them and starting their own girl group, which leads to them collabing multiple times.

Their band has a twitter and instagram and its a complete and utter mess ranging from tim passed out on the kitchen floor with pizza sauce on his face to pictures of cassie lecturing kon and bart after they destroy something with a clip of them destroying said thing.

they also have a yt and tt for their band which is a completely different story.

On Halloween performances i see them dressing up with likenesses to previous enemies theyve fought with the crowd being non the wiser

There are hundreds of conspiracy channels trying to suss out what the band is going to do next with them always getting it wrong, once they were so sure they were right when they thought tim was going to release a folk song with him instead singing opera

Gon continue adding more hc’s gradually and maybe put in the effort to build a playlist or draw them

Tim: I didn't ask for attitude.

Jason: It comes for free.

thinking about Tim Drake. Thinking about Tim Drake being mentally ill.

Thinking about Tim Drake being neurodivergent and never getting any support he needed. Thinking about Tim Drake never knowing healthy relationships. Thinking about Tim Drake pushing away all of his loved ones. Thinking about Tim Drake hurting them and not realizing it.

Thinking about Tim Drake becoming a bad person. Thinking about Tim Drake never learning boundaries. Thinking about Tim Drake doing awful things to further his goals. Thinking about Tim Drake not expressing his emotions in healthy ways. Thinking about Tim Drake never learning communication. Thinking about Tim Drake realizing he's not a good person and asking, "when did that happen?".

Thinking about Tim Drake spiraling the moment he's left alone. Thinking about Tim Drake ignoring his own needs. Thinking about Tim Drake ignoring his own pain and thinking everyone does the same. Thinking about Tim Drake not getting help because "he knows better". Thinking about Tim Drake not knowing better. Thinking about Tim Drake being a child. Thinking about Tim Drake having stunted emotional growth, while growing up too fast. Thinking about Tim Drake having above average intelligence, being ahead of his age. Thinking about Tim Drake being behind his peers in emotional maturity.

Thinking about Tim Drake never getting reliable parental figures. Thinking about Tim Drake, a child, handling the unstable adults in his life.

Thinking about Tim Drake finally having people that care about him. Thinking about Tim Drake being hurt by them. Thinking about Tim Drake hurting them.

Thinking about Tim Drake and how his mental state was never healthy. Thinking about it getting worse.

Thinking about Tim Drake being what he was trying to stop. Thinking about him failing. Thinking about him never noticing.

[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

[priv-heree]

Tim Drake as Robin is so twink, i can't-

[vivianthepigeon]

Tim hc

He was totally a fnaf kid, only he was deeply ashamed (still is)

[lactish]

I'm writing a fic and cloud sourcing this decision. Poll for one(1) day only cause I'm impatient.
