Did Tim or cardinal ever meet Bernard or Ives in trash Tim au?
Great question! I'll say I haven't put much thought into their place in the AU since, neither are likely to make more than a name drop appearance for several reasons. But future one shots I might explore their place in this AU more.
BUT thinking about in universe ill say Yes and No-
Tim of course knows his old friends, but for the sake of "Distancing himself from literally every person he's ever known or loved for the so caller greater good" he never "met" them.
From the comics I have read they all met at Highschool at either Gotham city HS or Gotham Heights HS- Well in this AU Tim only EXCLUSIVLY went to "Gotham Academy" which was the elite private school instead of its public school counterparts.
The rest of the Waynes went to either City or Heights for whatever reason- Jason (having lived longer this time around) transfered to Gotham Academy for some of its college level programs. Aka why Tim had to deal with seeing him.
Ives and Bernard have both independently "met" Cardinal- but never for too long. And they both dread the day they ever meet Timothy Drake in person.
Aka- Tim has sucsessfully evaded his former friends who spend their life none the wiser about him other than as a local tabloid figure and a vigilante even more mysterious than the Batman himself
