Do you think his siblings at some point find out that he was non verbal as a kid? And now they're so glad to see him yap away? Kinda like Bruce is, like they're all proud of how far he's come?

The appreciation does not last long but dick will certainly make the most of it

Not that sick Tim Drake AUs aren’t common but sometimes they stray too far into goofy or crackfic for my taste. Whenever I think about this it’s always funny bc Tim is just trying to do his thing and everyone else has to prevent it.

for example: the one that comes to my mind all the time is Tim having the flu or something else that causes some slight delirious behavior and while Bruce is chatting with Clark and Diana over the bat computer they just see Tim wrapped in a blanket quietly walk by behind Bruce. They assume Bruce must know he’s there wandering around until suddenly off camera the Batmobile fires up hella loud and Bruce is suddenly diving off screen (presumably to get Tim out of the car) and the rest of his siblings come trailing down the passage from the house to help.

You can picture it in your mind, right? Like the old looney tunes episodes with music and no talking. Just environmental storytelling.

*taps microphone* is this thing on? Okay…

🎤 THIS IS A REMINDER THAT ALL OF THE ROBINS ARE SMART, GENIUSES IN FACT. THEY ARE IN A FAMILY OF DETECTIVES. THATS LIKE THEIR WHOLE THING. ALL OF THE ROBINS (AND THE REST OF THE BATFAM TOO) ARE CLEVER, STRATEGIC, AND CAPABLE, NOT JUST TIM. (No hate to my boy Tim, though. I love Tim.) YES, EVEN THAT ONE. Thank you. 🎤

World’s Greatest Detective (and his dad)

Who would’ve thought that someone who’s favourite Dimension 20 character is Riz Gukgak would also have Tim Drake as their favourite Robin. Read nothing into this!!

Rise Leo is really like a Mikey you have no idea. We all know they’re all silly goofers that joke and pull pranks (Well 87 less so but still), but I’m not sure you know the extent of how similar they all are here. (someone might have already made a post like this but anyway- (will edit as I find more connections.)

Both him and and 87 Michelangelo speak the occasional Spanish in their words. And go to a pizza place whenever they’re bummed. 87! Michelangelo going to Vinnie’s Pizzeria, and for Leo, Hueso’s Run of the Mill pizza.

And Both love magic!

Also 87 Michelangelo speaks pigeon (pigeon-never gets mutated-pete below), considering that 2012 Raph also speaks pigeon, this may hint towards Rise Leo being able to talk to doves. (I am aware that with 2003 Donatello's pigeon puppet, this would create a real funny scenario.)

Both 2003 Mikey and Leo are Battle Nexus Champions and showboaters.

Also they have a bad future of themselves where they both lose an arm.

2012 Mikester wears aviators and loves unicorns. Or at least his Limited Edition Action-Kick Unicorn Man

(RIP Unicorn Man, at least you’re fine in your next episode.)

And they were both trapped in Krang dimensions and left permanently traumatized!

Also this

(There’s also skateboarding and weird tastes in pizza but I think all the rise turtles like/have this one.)

I got permission from @brain-rot-tmnt to use their writing to make this hehehe

Kind of rough but I haven't drawn in about a month. But we ball!

[hyperfixatinator]

Did I do this right

[hyperfixatinator]

I lied. Put your clothes back on. We're going to talk about how Batman was not meant to be "vengeance" but "compassion", and how his character has been twisted through the decades that now people thinks he is supposed to be vengeance, which harms his character.

(See how here, Batman becomes a figure of vengeance from grieving Robin? Batman being vengeance is when he is at his lowest, like when Jason died, but he isn't supposed to be vengeance most of the time. Also, this is Dick.)

(And Alfred explaining Bruce is motivated by compassion not revenge.)

Okay but 👀👀 The Celeste and Hiro parallel rant drop~ [When you can of course 💕💕]

OKAY so uh thesis statement ahoy: hiro is arguably one of the most similar classmates to celeste, if not the most.

I know i have to start off by saying yes, hiro, considered one of the most stupid charecters ingame by the majority of the fandom, reminds me most of minor mastermind celeste with her elaborate murder plan and act to throw people off their guard.

And while im not gonna go fully into detail on my 4d chess hiro theory/hc/reality cause thats a whole other essay, hiro is shown to (just like celeste) use an act, AND be a really competent liar.

In game, in chap 3, theres a scene where Monokuma is super suspscious of everyone leaving the bathhouse togehter for seemingly no reason, and they've gotta quickly cover for the fact that he doesnt know about alter ego.

Celeste is the one who instantly lies expertly and comes up with the idea of them betting on baths. This scene is used as foreshowing for her being a future killer, and a reminder of what a scarily good liar she is.

BUT shes not the only good liar in this scene. While hina takes some time to get used to the lie and not act super sus,

Hiro is instantly on board the lie.

He's the only other shown directly reactinf to her lie, and his reaction is to unflinchingly mirror her without question! Perfect poker face!

And while this little incident might not be enough evidence on its own, it repeats!!! Hiro is the one to always bring makoto to the bathhouse, confidently lying without trouble on two more occasions!

The second time he even spells it out for you!!!

This is a man capable of putting on a smile and lying to your face and the mastermind!! Of putting on an act when needed!! Sound familiar? (Yes, because its what Celeste does ALL THE TIME)

And sure okay, hiros capable of lying! Cool! But are there any more dirrect parallels? Maybe ones pointed out by other charecters in game? YEP

At the end of both their free time events, makoto's final opinions on Celeste and Hiro are eerily similar.

Basically, makoto decides he cant ever let his guard down around either of them, and is tentative to even call them friends. Because, as he's learned from talking to them, these are both people willing to lie, cheat and do basically anything to get what they want, and to keep surviving.

These are both people willing to frame others purely for their own benefit and survival, celeste framing hiro himself in chapter 3 and hiro framing toko in chapter 4, and people willing to kill to survive.

Because while celeste planned a double murder to escape, Hiro was ready to kill Sakura at the first sign that his life was in danger. These are people who are hard to trust and find trusting hard.

While I wont go too much in detail cause this rant is already super log whoops, chap 3, especially the final trial, is arguably a competition between Hiro and celeste for who can win the trial while keeping their act up! (Because why i cant go too into detail here, i am convinced at this point that hiro is constantly putting on an act in order to seem less threatening YES I HAVE EVIDENCE)

Celeste chooses to frame him (because hes "stupid" she says, and someone so obviously "stupid" cant bring up good points without easy evidence, right hiro?) , consequently betting her life against his, and her ability to defend herself against his. She puts them in a scenerio where their differences and similarites become apparent and easy to highlight because in the end it is her against him!!

Another really interesting thing about that trial is while Celeste's acts and lies end up imploding in her face, hiro's,,,sort of do as well! His over exaggerated dumb act nearly gets him executed, and he ends up having to break out of it temporarily jn order to point out something key he'd noticed.

(Yeah byakuya the point is you weren't supposed to know that) He also does use his supposed lack of intelligence as proof he's inocent in that trial, which is arguably,,one of the main reasons he uses it in the first place.

(Interestingly enough Celeste is also the one who points out this possibilty, implying she thinks he IS capable of that amount of forethought)

This is getting way too long so i have to cut it short for now, but additjonal points I'd be glad to ramble on in a second post include their shared low empathy (very clearly illustrated in how they treat/talk about Alter Ego) AND the fact that they're both shown to change their speech style depending on whats happening and who they're with. (Celeste's obvious accent drop in her final trial breakdown, Hiro dropping a casuel style of speaking when hes alone with makoto and trying to be honest with him, and when he's fully intending to come off as the adult in the room, which he is)

SO TL/DR They're both yasuhiros who are excellent at lying and putting on an act, are shown to be untrustworthy and have trust issues and do whatever it takes to survive, are direct opponents in trial 3, and have ulterior motives for how they act on a daily basis. Simply put, they're playing fools and playing nice! :)

my biggest conclusion on drv3 is that everyone seems to really enjoy that little detective guy
