Tim and Dick's feathers...

I love Robin. (And Dickkory)

I misread this and thought Dick was saying he was in love with Jack Drake... I was very confused but anyways Dickkory should adopt Tim. 🤷‍♀️

Teen Titans/Outsiders: Secret Files and Origins (2005) Tim: Hey what's--no way! Kory: Nothing, it's noth-- Tim: Wow. Hold on--feathers? Dick Grayson, my idol, your boyfriend wore...feathers? And what's with the lapels? Kory: Ex-boyfriend. And he always said they were totally Alfred's idea, but Wally never let him live it down.

On the one hand, this is very cute - I love Tim straight out acknowledging Dick as his idol, he doesn't say it directly like that as often as you might think.

But on the other hand.

Tim. Timmy.

The New Titans (1988) #61 - A Lonely Place of Dying, part 4 Narration box: He hears the voice behind him, calling out to him, beseeching him. "No, not Nightwing. Dick, don't you understand--?" Narration box: "BATMAN NEEDS ROBIN!" Dick: What? Tim: Dick, please--take this. It belongs to you!

He was literally still Discowing for your intro story!! And for almost another 3 real-world years after that, until Mulletwing debuted!!

I know you didn't hang out together very much during that period except for at the very beginning, Dick being off in NY with the Titans and all, but please 😂

I know it has to be an editorial error, but the idea that Tim straight up blocked Discowing out of his memory is just. lmfaooooo

Comments:

This is one of the cases where fanon is correct - Jason DOES constantly make up nicknames for Dick!

Dick has a period while he's in Blüdhaven where a lot of his hallucinations involve Jason. A lot of the weirder names on this list come from one where he's hallucinating that he's in a sitcom white-picket-fence neighbourhood and Jason is his terrifyingly upbeat neighbour.

I don’t have enough of their interactions before Jason’s death to have proper thoughts about that period. I really need to read those issues.

bruce + dick on never changing

from teen titans and outsiders secret files and origins (2003)

"in his head, being 'the good soldier' would win him bruce's affection. but when it never did, they just fought." "you're smart enough to accept batman for who he is--and you don't get angry over the fact that you can't change him."

nightwing volume 2 (1996)

"none of you ever learn." "learn?" "what you can't change about each other." "oh, i-- i wouldn't change a thing."
