#tim drake is half-german because i say so and because im learning it rn-

[ruenii]

when tim gets super tired, or sleep deprived like he always is, id like to think his mouth filter just gets torn off completely and he says some ooc things he would absolutely regret saying and would rather jump off a cliff than to remember.

like what if he likes using terms of endearments on his friends or siblings? what if he calls bart his 'sunshine'? or cassie 'sweetheart'?? or kon 'darling'???? and he never remembers anything in his sleep deprived state so he becomes confused when he wakes up and find his friends or family blushing, red to the ears.

WHAT IF TIM DEEP, DEEEEP DOWN IS A SAP—

he called bruce his 'papa bear' and bruce just blue screened in the kitchen.

he called jason 'bubba' and he walked right into a street light during patrol.

he called dick 'frate mai mare' and dick tripped on a rock and almost tried to bring tim into a bone-crushing hug.

he called damian 'habibi' with no fear, and damian stormed out with his face flushed.

with duke, he calls him 'Bärchen' as he holds his hand, cause duke is his favorite brother meanwhile duke is turning red very quickly.

with cass, he calls her 'jiě jiě' and cass just hugs him close to her with slightest hint of red on her ears.

with stephanie, he calls her "Maus" and steph calls him "Hase", she's used to his nicknames and even tried to one up him. (but she thinks its really cute)

tim calls alfred 'Opa' and surprisingly, doesn't feel shy about it, alfred though? he's over there trying to fight off the blush.

tim being a secret soft sap is my favorite headcanon and you can pry it out of my cold, dead, hands.
