I think Tim often listens to stories about Dick and Jason's time as Robin and feels so much envy.
When he was Robin, there was no hiding under Batmans cloak or saying crappy puns or laughing with him. There was just work and being alone.
Tim spent most of his Robin career either holding Batman together or doing things alone.
And then Jason came back, and Batman spent more time trying to unmask him, more effort into defeating him, then he had ever shown Tim.
It was only through so much time that Batman finally started seeing Tim not as his sons replacement, but as his Robin.
But still, Tim had the shittiest Robin run because he never truly got to be Robin.
This was a quick concept sketch, that i never expanded on, from maybe a year ago? this is my reminder to draw more of this
Living at Wayne Manor has got to be a trip.
Like imagine you just stayed up all night, diffused two bombs, participated in a high speed chase, fist fought a gay homophobic clown who's down bad for your father, returned home to your bat infested cave prominently featuring a dinosaur, and before you can change out of your spandex and log into the fifteen foot tall family computer, the local crime lord comes down from the mansion to tell you it's time to practice your group tictok dance so that the press keeps thinking you're a spoiled ditzy socialite trust fund baby
*Robin stopping yj right inside of Gotham’s borders and not letting them into the rest of the city*
Cassie: “wait why can’t we go into gotham anymore!?”
Robin: “i- eh.. the meta rule!”
Bart: “we’ve been in gotham before, and you were the one to sneak us in! That is not a good excuse”
Anita: “yeahhh what’s the real reason?”
Robin: “well um. You guys have seen my face…”
Kon: “so what Rob? It’s not like the second we go into the city we’re gonna run into a giant billboard with your face and secret identity plastered on it!!!”
Robin glancing behind them:
Robin: “………..”
i think one of my favorite underutilized traits about cassandra is that she canonically talks with a very noticeable mix of slang (and most likely a slight accent). she learned a lot about talking and words from listening to others (predominantly gotham citizens, who talk with a lot of slang and a noticeable accent) AND by listening to crappy romance reality shows on tv. she uses “i dunno” “ya bet!” (or just an over abundance of ‘ya’) outdated slang (like cutie patootie, ‘he was totally hot for me..’ etc)
anyways like. imagine being ambushed by an actual gothic nightmare come to life, it is completely indistinguishable against the awful gotham night, its whole face is concealed, nothing to even indicate it could be human….and then it goes “haha that was totes lame loser” in a horribly exaggerated hollywood-esque voice. like we’re missing out on so much here

Dick: So how long have you been doing this whole crime fighting thing?
Peter: Honestly, kinda lost track around the 90s but a long time.
Dick: That's rough. You got any back up like a team?
Peter: Nah. Been on several teams but none that stick. I like doing things on my own.
Dick: Any family?
Peter: Nope. My parents were CIA agents and killed by the Red Skull, the leader of Hydra, when I was young-
Dick: W-wait-
Peter: I was adopted by my aunt and uncle but when I got my powers, I let a robber go and that same robber killed my uncle-
Dick hearing aggressive running in the distance: Pete stop-
Peter: Yea and after being spider-man for a while I was hated by a news organization, was accused of killing my first girlfriend's dad-
*Aggressive running speeds up*
Dick: Pete, stop he is coming-
Peter: And then she died in my arms after I tried to catch her with a web but didn't factor in the momentum. And I have been non-stop struggling since.
*Aggressive running stops*
Dick: Oh no... he is here.
Peter: Who-
Bruce Wayne bursting through the wall holding a robin costume: SO, YOU'VE STRUGGLED ALL YOUR LIFE AND ARE, OR CLOSE TO BEING, AN ORPHAN??
Dick: PETE RUN!
