And if I said that the biggest reason that Jason hates Bruce so much is that he sees so much of Bruce in himself then what.

And if I say that Jason knows that if he didn’t die he would’ve been more like Bruce and he’s mad he never got the chance then what.

And if I say that Bruce is more mad at himself for what he let happen to Jason than he is at Jason but doesn’t know how to express that outside of turning the anger outwards so he points it at those he cares about which only makes him angrier at himself then what.

And if I said that all these two want from each other is to be forgiven about things that the other aren’t even truly mad at each other for but are both too stubborn to be the first one to forgive then what.

Damian should be Tim’s biggest fan, and I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

Tim is the perfect intersection between Batman and Ra’s Al Ghul and Damian would 100% recognize and respect this

He’s one of the biggest thorns in Ra’s side and he’s the only person who can effectively lie to Batman, and is an intellectual match to both of them.

I’m tired of Damian and Tim being at each others throats all the time, give me Damian and Tim being borderline supervillains on a mission together, give me Damian being Tim’s right-hand henchman.

Yeah 100%

Damian hating Tim made sense at first, when all he knew was that he was supposed to be the best at everything all the time forever.

But it's been long enough, they deserve to have worked past this by now, and they should 100% be besties because it would be perfect and they would be perfect.

Especially since Damian stepped down as Robin and Tim finally became Robin again.

Damian should be Tim’s biggest fan, and I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

Damian: So what’s for dinner?

Dick: I can’t tell you, it’s a soup-prise!

Damian: …

Damian: Is it soup?

Dick: I soup-pose it could be! *winks*

Damian: Please, enough with the soup puns!

Dick: Wow, you’re soup-per mean.

Damian: STOP!

*one hour later*

Damian: It’s tacos?!?!?!

Parallel thinking strikes again

It’s a common occurrence in Wayne manor for someone to walk in on Tim, completely lost in thought, sitting in the classic supervillain pose of sitting with his legs wide and his fingertips pressed against each other with his head tilted down a bit, see below for reference

He doesn’t do it on purpose, his body just naturally moves to this position whenever he’s Scheming™️.

Jason: Why is Tim sitting like he’s about to beat me with a crowbar?

Dick: Shh, he’s thinking.

Jason: About what?

Steph: Ra’s Al Ghul is fucking with him again and he needs to figure out his next move

Jason: And that explains the supervillain pose?

Dick: Yeah he does that sometimes

Bruce: You should hear how he laughs once he figures something out. It even scares me sometimes.

This meme popped into my head when I saw Cassandra and Stephanie dancing for their Anti - Valentine’s Day dance party and Jason was there too busting his moves.

[stephcasstruther]

Cass’s love language is sparring and Steph has the bruises to prove it

I was drawing fight poses and accidentally just had cass beating steph up

Batmans "No Metas In Gotham" rule but all of his kids (the batboys in particular) are secretly Metas. A silly AU

Obviously, Dick has weird contortionist stuff going on. He's an acrobat gymnastic, he can twist any part of his body into a pretzel. But that doesn't explain him being able to squeeze into a vent system that even rats struggle to get through. When Bruce finds an 11 year old boy crying through the vents "daaaad I got stuck" he did not expect to find that Dick managed to squeeze himself through 20 feet of 6 inch wide 3 inch tall ductwork into a small pocket meant for a fan. Bruce was left questioning for months if Dick somehow popped a joint to do it, but nope... Dick just straight up has squishy bones. It's an at will thing, so no one's ever noticed it before. Bruce only finds out when Dick yells "think squishy thoughts!" to try and help Bruce free himself from a Joker death trap, and when questioned, is like, "Yeah.. my mom taught me to."

Jason gets mild elemental control. Nothing insane or super noticeable, but he manages to stay completely dry even during rainy patrol nights, fires seem to naturally pull towards him when he walks past them, lights flicker if he gets too emotional, ect. Bruce only found out Jason could do any of this stuff after Jason died and came back. It was raining hard that night. Bruce found his should be dead son. But Jason was dry as a bone. Half of Gotham was missing power, the street lights flickering madly every time the fight moved further down the street. The explosive Jason planted in the helmet seemed to be an all-consuming everlasting flare that was hell-bent burning Bruce.

Tim has night vision. It's not the most impressive or cool or weird, but it's so very helpful. The way Bruce figures it out is he finds Tim in the pitch black batcave, writing away in a notebook while reading some old case files from pre modern batcomputer era where Bruce had written down everything himself. He was attempting to solve cold cases in the dark. At first, Bruce is like "well maybe his eyes adjusted," but no. I (Seth) have been caving/spelunking irl before, it's really fun, but it's So. Fucking. Dark. It's literally impossible to see at all, even when your eyes slightly adjust. He starts to freak out the rest of the batfam by wandering the manor at night without any lights. Sick Tim, standing over Bruce's bed in the pitch black going "I threw up" in the most pained voice ever and Bruce nearly shits himself.

Damian is all sorts of fucked up and weird and I'm not saying the Lazarus Pit was involved, but why else does Damian have an utterly insane healing factor? It's basically impossible to cut him cuz it's like his flesh instantly heals. At first Bruce is convinced that Damian was just taught really well for an 8 year old kid, dodging so many hits, until he realized that actually Damian was incredibly sloppy, he just never worried about getting hit cuz he healed so fast. One time, his hand got chopped off and Bruce was about to have a mental breakdown cuz "Oh god I failed my son." And Damian just holds up his already reforming hand like "father, chill the fuck out."

Tim Works Hard So He Can Nap Harder

The thing about Tim is that he gets things done.

Not in a normal, reasonable, “wow, he’s really productive” way. No, Tim operates on an entirely different plane of efficiency—one that defies common sense and possibly the laws of physics.

Give him a five-hour task? He’ll finish it in two. Tell him something is impossible? He’ll stare at you, offended, before proving you so wrong it physically hurts.

Sometimes, it’s out of sheer spite. Bruce once told him a mission was too complicated for him to handle alone, so Tim completed it in record time out of pettiness alone. Jason told Tim he didn’t have the skill set for corporate espionage. So Tim hacked three shell companies overnight, uncovered Black Mask’s entire financial network, and sent Jason a PowerPoint presentation with the subject line: “Skill Set Acquired”.

Other times, it’s about time management. Tim understands, at his very core, that the faster he works, the sooner he can stop working. If he has to burn through a mountain of reports in a single hour so he can take a nap, then so be it. If he has to analyze data at inhuman speeds so he can binge-watch a show later, then he will.

The bats have learned to just… let it happen.

Dick once made the mistake of asking Tim to help him streamline his schedule. Tim, in under an hour, not only optimized his entire calendar but also accounted for every possible emergency, scheduled backup time slots for rescheduling, and somehow made Dick twice as productive without making him feel busier. It was kinda terrifying.

Barbara asked him to double-check some intel. He cross-referenced it against every available database, found three hidden links no one had noticed, and sent her a color-coded report with visual aids.

Bruce told him to track a smuggling ring in Gotham. Tim mapped out their entire operation in one night, had arrests lined up by morning, and then went home to sleep like a corpse.

Steph once sarcastically asked if Tim could figure out how to clean up the Gotham underworld in a week. Tim pulled out a ten-step plan before she even finished her sentence.

Tim doesn’t waste time. He doesn’t believe in half-measures. He works fast, works well, and then disappears before anyone can ask him for more.

The only thing scarier than Tim’s efficiency is the fact that he actively chooses to use it selectively.

Because while Tim is capable of working like a one-man army, when it benefits him, he’s also capable of weaponized uselessness. If he doesn’t want to do something, suddenly he’s the most inefficient person alive.

He’ll take weeks to answer a text. He’ll forget how to do basic tasks. He’ll act so completely incapable of anything that people just stop asking him for things.

But when he wants something done?

It’s over before you even realize he started.

Yes. Perfect. Thank you for the addition.

My headcanon to fix at least part of the Valentine’s Day special is that Damian Simply Does Not know what a one night stand is. He heard someone say it once and he thought it meant something completely different and that’s just how he uses it now. This is canon as far as I’m concerned.
