i despise when people say that tim is boring
because, no???
people have just decided that all of tim's character traits are just favoritism.
literally had this exact fucking conversation with someone a few days ago:
"i don't like tim because he's boring."
"oh, why?"
"he doesn't have any character traits."
"yes he does. he sees himself as a sentient tool, consistently chooses others over himself, is one of the few characters who actually understands the symbols of batman and robin separate from the people in the suits, is a detective equal to and sometimes better than batman, he's great at hacking, he constantly makes new allies and is a big part of the reason batman has a support network."
"no, that's just from runs where tim was unfairly favored."
"ohhh. i see. you decided that tim doesn't have any character traits because when he is respected as a human being and not just a Tool for the characters you like better and can, you know, show his character traits, you have decided it is favoritism and doesn't count. let's not think about the 10~ years when tim was a fucking background character and basically Didn't Matter in comparison to the more popular characters. that wasn't favoritism towards anyone at all."
