omg didn’t tim make some sort of promise to ra’s to get his help during the BruceQuest??????
hi!!!
AU Idea: fae!tim drake who very specifically treats promises as sacred. why? the ✨angst potential✨.
plus all the other stuff with tim being a fae, but i had the idea abt promises specifically
Hi!!! 👋
Fae!Tim has my entire heart and soul. The promises side of this is a wonderful addition. So, let's get into it ^^
For this AU, let's say Tim can lie. He's fae, but he can lie. The only issue he has (and other fae have) with lying is that it's painful, considered rude, and fae can usually tell when someone is lying to them. The pain and offense of the lie increases with how great or important the lie is.
The fae, however, keep this as a tightly guarded secret (that they can lie and that lying hurts them). Barely any non-fae know about it.
Unfortunately, Tim found out the hard way that not keeping promises, even when he intended to, counts as lying to their biology. He was in a considerable amount of pain when he found that out the hard way. Perhaps there's even a magical binding element to promises where he has to keep them or pay some price.
Tim thus very rarely makes promises. He doesn't do white lies, and he won't say comfort lies/promises of "you'll be alright." There are loopholes he utilizes, and he is very good at misleading or misrepresenting himself.
Nobody else in the batfam is fae. Only Tim. So, the Bats do not know that Tim can lie. Because, again, he rarely if ever does and it usually causes him pain.
The Bats do know that he's very careful with promises. Perhaps there was a moment where someone tried to use promises as a way to guarantee Tim would do something (like take care of himself), and Tim was hella pissed off for this.
Anyways, I think the others would have varying opinions about promises. Some say them off-handedly, some try to only mutter them in serious or important moments, and some try their damndest to uphold any promise they make.
The only batfam member to take it as seriously and sacredly as Tim is Damian. Whether that's because of how he was raised or because of his nature (dragon, angel, siren, or whatever), is up to you ^^
I just like the angst and relationship potential of Tim and Damian, who start off as enemies, learning to trust the other when it comes to promises. This one aspect they see eye to eye on.
“too wayne family adventures” like that isnt also a valid piece of media that people put hard work and dedication into
I really don't understand people bitching about Batman stuff being "non-canon compliant" like worstie, there are eighty years of canon to go through.
Half the stuff you're complaining about being "out of character" and "too Wayne Family Adventures" was canon in the Silver Age era.
Shut the fuck up and let people vibe.
"forfrodo"
wise words, very wise words
TIL Dr. Sigmund Freud was addicted to smoking and failed to quit for good throughout a 45 years long battle that included 33 operations for cancer of the jaw, an artificial jaw replacement, and attacks of “tobacco angina” exacerbated by nicotine . He was known to smoke up to twenty cigars a day.

everyone talks about how YJ watched santa die but no one talks about how before santa showed up, YJ made a fucking suicide pact to take out the doomsday missile.
hey hi hello can i read this once youre done?
Something that just came to mind.
Tim sitting with one leg up at the bat computer during a meeting “shit, Steph can you pick up some of my foundation I’m almost out”
Jason turned with a frown “Why do you wear make up?”
“eh To many triggering scars on my face” Tim points to his face in a exaggerated motion. “I would show you but I don’t want you going all rage zombie on me”
A strangle noise of confusion or sympathy escaped dick “Why would Jason be triggered?” He said while approaching Tim
Tim roatated in his chair waving his hand around in a circular motion “Well most people find a permanent smile horrific dick”
I just had an Idea. What if Damian met Tim during the time he was training with Lady Shiva? I’m like 90% sure Damian trained with her at some point, and I know for sure that Tim did. So what if they met through her?
then when Damian ends up in Gotham he recognizes Tim not as Robin but as lady shiva’s apprentice. I imagine it would go smth like this:
Tim, opening the door: Hi
Damian: Timothy?
Tim: Damian???
Damian: Why are you here?
Tim: I live here. Damian: *shocked murder baby noises*
Literally I have no one to tag but yk hi
A friend threatened me to repost so I will!
Basically, there r tons of fake asses on tumblr who just want comments and followers, so someone started this to see who's actually a good friend. Everyone I tag better repost (and tag other people and preferably threaten them in a creative way as well) bc I'm high on caffeine and newfound lesbianism and will resort to violence.
@ey-theys-was-coronas
@fangirlhehe
I would tag more people but they're the only ones I've really interacted with-
please please please please reblog if you’re a writer and have at some point felt like your writing is getting worse. I need to know if I’m the only one who’s struggling with these thoughts
On Tim and Dick (specifically Dick giving away Robin):
Dick sees "graduating" from Robin as an honor. That is the source of most of his arguments with Bruce. Dick has spent so much time and effort trying to escape from Batman's shadow. When he "graduates" Tim, he sees it as an honor. An affirmation that Tim is Doing Good and has succeeded.
Tim sees "losing" Robin as failure. This is the source of most of his- I'm not gonna say arguments, but feelings toward- Bruce. He has spent so much time and effort to be deemed worthy to be even in Batman's shadow to begin with. When he "loses" Robin, he sees it as Dick telling him he isn't Good Enough. An affirmation of the bullshit Damian has been spewing about Tim's value as part of the group. (And I could rant about Damian and Robin and Tim, but that's for a different day.)
Back to the "Batman's Shadow" analogy: Dick became Robin in Batman's shadow. He was sheltered from the blinding light until he was old enough to take it on. When he was, Batman didn't want him to go. So he left the shadows himself. He sees being able to 'brave the light' as a victory, so he "rescues" Tim from the shadow.
Tim became Robin without Batman's aid. He became Robin with no one to shelter him from the light. And just when he finally feels secure in his role, just when he's granted a place in Batman's shadow, Dick shoves him back into the unforgiving light again.
Robin is a very complicated mantle with a lot of feelings attached to it, it's a very symbolic thing. Robin is not just a crime fighting vigilante, it is not just a suit, but it is- it is a place of belonging within the family. For Dick, specifically, Robin was to honor his dead parents. From the very beginning, Robin is for family. Jason uses Robin as a way to connect with Bruce and defend his first "family", the people of Crime alley. So in the second Robin, this idea stays clear: Robin is for family.
But with Tim? He wasn't family until the end of his run as Robin, but he still saw it as family. He was there for the origins of Robin, at the circus. He saw how Robin was for family.
And then Dick took it away.
this!!!
Calling a canon bisexual woman a lesbian becuase she has a female love interest or is in a wlw relationship is bisexual erasure and biphobic!!!!
