No lie but based off of some of you guys' recounts of The Batman (2022), this is more or less what my brain thinks of when I imagine that sort of man with a Dick Grayson for a Robin
actually. the way the post-crisis canon tim was a robin who self-admittedly had to work *a little* bit harder than the others because the physical apsect of the job didn't come *quite* as naturally to him but still managed to overcome it to become one of the best bo staff users (if not the best) in the world and one of the best fighters in the world through years of hard work, determination, and practice due to the fact he had *years* of dedicated training from some of the best fighters in the world starting when he was *13* (including but not limited to bruce, dick, and babs), had several bouts of specialized intense training under people like the rahul lama and lady shiva among others, excelled in holding his own on two seperate superhero teams, was in *at least* two warzones, and survived torture on apokolips is important. that story of hard work and determination and dedication and practice to achieve your dreams is good, actually. and i get annoyed by fanon tim who is bestest boy who's just soooo good at everything and better that everyone else too, but it really bugs me when people (including dc: see td:r!) devalue his years of hard work and dedication to get to where he's at as a physical fighter to be like "well acksually he's the weakest who will never truly be able to reach the others' potential because people who have to work harder will never truly be on the same playing field as people who are naturally skilled". like yea he makes up for some shortcomings with working smarter, not harder but. c'mon. he's got to work a little harder, but he *does* and that's why he's good.
Bruce worrying that Bernard is cheating on Tim with Kon because he sees the two out on a date and right as he goes to call Tim to give him the bad news, Tim comes out of the bathroom and they both just kinda reach out to him to pull him closer to them.
timberkon would give bruce a stroke. he can barely deal with bernard being a menace let alone if he's paired up with KON FUCKING KENT
