yknow what annoys me about fanon, that Tim and Dick had ONE serious argument and suddenly they both hate each other somehow? Like, come on, that's Dicks little brother, and that's Tim Big bro, and his superhero.
And even then, in Red Robin we see Tim still being close as heck, they both love and respect each other despite their differences.
ITS LITERALLY IN THE COMIC THAT TIM DOESNT HAVE A CONTINGENCY FOR DICK BECAUSE HE WOULD NEVER HURT OR BETRAY TIM!!! LIKE COME ON
"bluh superman is boring bc he has basically no physical weaknesses he's completely unrelatable" YOU FOOLS YOU BASTARDS YOU IDIOTS his weaknesses is that he was raised to THINK and ACT and FEEL completely human!!!! The whole POINT is to explore what happens when you take a guy who mentally is a caring and kind and decent and conflicted and messy human person and contrast that with him having the all powerful abilities of a god it's about the CONFLICT it's about the TENSION it's about the DOUBLE LIFE it's about wondering if you can theoretically spend 24/7 saving people because you don't have to eat or sleep or breathe can you actually justify having a job or going to bed or falling in love or living a life!!! It's about being well known as being powerful so your public persona can never once slip never be angry never trip up or else you become a symbol of fear rather than hope!!! It's about having to also keep yourself in check every day and having to keep yourself of two minds and having to explain over and over and over again that you're not interested in dominance you're not interested in power you're interested in justice and mercy and help. It's about no matter what you are always subduing some aspect of yourself either your mind or your body depending on which role you have to play!!! And all of that is JUST on the introspective level!!! Superman is one of the most fascinating characters ever if you think he's boring imo it's bc you're being boring about it
Saw ur post about weird things you know about Dick, got anymore?
Ha, okay. Just little characterization/fun fact things.
Dick isn’t a fan of Alfred’s cucumber sandwiches.
...like consistently, not a fan lol.
Dick also doesn’t like cranberry muffins!
But one of his favorite Alfred dishes is crab stuffed mushrooms (weirdo).
Dick likes to watch nature documentaries to relax...and as a result he knows a lot of random animal fun facts.
He really overthinks mystery tv lol...even Scooby-doo (which he apparently has watched with the Titans/Wally before lol? cute).
Dick uses fancy English Dunhill aftershave, which might be why he has that reputation for smelling good haha? Thank Alfred for that peeps.
Dick tends to have trouble making his home feel like home. He keeps very busy and doesn’t usually care about stuff, so that translates into very minimal decoration...or not even removing his stuff from storage/boxes without some cajoling.
though once he does finally decorate lol, it does tend to be very sentimental, meaningful items pretty much exclusively (ie family photos, flying grayson poster, etc.)
And he likes mint chocolate chip ice cream according to @hood-ex! I have no idea where that is from but I love it.
I think that’s all I feel like doing for now. Maybe I’ll add some more later, idk. Or other people could add little details too.
i’ve literally not stopped thinking about this
@havenshereagain got me thinking about Tim in Young Justice merch so I sketched some ideas out.
He wears Kon's shirt as PJs (Timkon HEAVILY implied), Impulse merch for workout (it's durable and made out of breathable fabric specifically for this purpose), and Wonder Girl merch as an everyday item of clothing.
I might make a full artwork about this when I have more time, who knows.
I refuse to let DC reboot their way out of a warped timeline. No explaining it away, lean into it.
Tim drake is a 90s kid. He is seventeen, he grew up alongside computers and listens to terrible rock rap. Jason, one year older than him, is from the 80s and the height of the AIDs epidemic. Dick, maybe six years older than Jason, is from the 40s. Babs, five years older than dick, is from the 50s. The year is 2025. Bruce Wayne has just turned 40.
old art since I havent drawn them in years but I think of them often
I actually think the worst thing to happen to Dick Grayson was that his parents died in New Jersey cause then that poor son of a bitch was stuck there
