the thing about Dick and Tim in relation to Bruce that I am constantly spinning around and around in my head is like

if they’re talking about Bruce, Dick will be the first one to be like ‘bruce is an asshole he’s being terrible fuck him you don’t need him’ while Tim will be like ‘no you gotta give him a chance he’s just struggling and it’s our job to be there for him’

but if something actually Happens, then Tim will be the one like ‘we have to sincerely consider the possibility that bruce may be a murderer while i hold him at arm’s length’ while Dick is already trying to die for Bruce without a second’s hesitation and won’t lose loyalty in a million years

#idk man!!! dick feels his feelings and doesn't hide his righteous and justified anger #but he is so loyal to his very core that his loyalty can truly be a fault #meanwhile tim is stuck in this sense of duty (including caretaking) towards an adult man who shouldn't be leaning on him in the first place #and sees nothing wrong with that sitatuion #bUT HE is the one to look clearly at bruce's flaws and truly consider that bruce could be(come) an outright bad person #he's NOT loyal to fault! he is extremely loyal but it's fully conditional!#dick is the one who is more obviously distant! who didn't talk to bruce for years! but he is still the one who will always always come back #anyway can you tell i think about bruce wayne murderer approximately once a day #*#*dc #dc #dc meta #dick grayson #tim drake #bruce wayne #10to2 #10to3
