Dear fanfic Tim Drake fans, I hear your coffee addicted Tim

Dear canon Tim Drake fans, I hear your energy drinks addicted Tim

And i raise you, what if he was both

Tim started out drinking mostly energy drinks, as they are much easier to both carry and drink when stalking bats on rooftops

He didn't drink much coffee when living at home (in my head mostly bec since he was small, he couldn't reach the coffee machine without help and the fridge was easier)

But when he moved into the manor, he started drinking more coffee due to other members drinking, and Alfred making exquisite coffee blends to his liking

Except in the cave, as Alfred banned all coffee machines to prevent any bat from having easy access while on a case

So Tim kept a secret stash of energy drinks to use when doing all nighters for cases (luckily, the cave was cold enough that he didn't need a mini refrigerator)

One night, however, while being awake for 40 hours already, he didn't think the energy drinks were helping anymore, so his sleep deprived ass came up with a genious idea.

He walked up to the manor's kitchen, and made the machine make a coffee with the highest caffeine in it that it was able to, he then walked down back to the cave, grabbed an energy drink, and proceeds to pour it in, to the horror of all batfam watching

What probably also didn't help was that he didn't use a normal cup, no, he knew since he was going to mix 2 drinks a normal cup was too small, so tired Tim looked into the cabinets and grabbed the first cup adjacent item that would fit both drinks, a soup bowl, he added a straw because sipping from it would be hard

So imagine the other batfam, being worried about Tim's sleeping schedule, seeing him walk upstairs, and assuming (hoping) he was going to sleep.

Only to see him walk back down, holding a fucking soup mug with a straw, with what appears to be coffee in it. He then proceeds to pull out an energy drink, and before anyone could react, pours it into the mug, and proceeds to start sipping from it, no emotions showing.

After like 10 mintues of bluesceen the batfam all decide to 'ground' Tim to his room until he sleeps, and ban him from ever making that concoction ever again (He will not stop, it tasted suprisingly well so he's curious about different energy drink combinations, not that hell ever say this out loud)

(I don't know how to tag, if im missing tags do tell me so i can add them)
