hmmm deaged duke thomas REFUSING to let batman nightwing or red hood near him because when duke was a kid batman had just lost robin and was super violent on the streets, nightwing was in blud so duke wouldnt really know him and red hood has guns??? what??
and duke (this is the kid who reads people flawlessly and also trained to beat the riddler from an young age) is evading capture at every turn. his powers are erratic and hes starting to get scared, the manor will not let him out, and where are his parents-
when suddenly there he is. duke thomas’s robin, and his most trusted protector, tim drake.
just more of duke thomas with the tropes the other brothers get hit with all the time, and also more of tim being dukes robin please!!!

The drakes are never in town and the entirety of Gotham minus the Drakes themselves and the Wayne’s are aware of this fact and band together to protect one small stalker child who continues to successfully reroute money from the wealthy and hand out large bills when he’s out doing night photography of the bats.
When Tim becomes Robin they all collectively decide to look the other way in regards to his secret identity.
When he disappears after Bruce gets lost in the time stream, there’s chaos. Grayson cannot figure out why the entire city seems so hostile against a new Robin.
When Tim returns as Red Robin there’s parties in the street but they disguised them as celebrations for the latest Arkham roundup being complete with zero casualties.
Tim always knew he’d come back to Gotham. Even if his family’s love is questionable, he knows the city loves him. He pretends he doesn’t know that they know who he is under the mask, but he can’t help but smile a little brighter when some random civilian looks up and yells out a greeting during his patrol.
He doesn’t hide a joy on his face when that one abuela on the 4th floor flags him down and hands him a basket of freshly baked goods.
A young girl made him a scarf once the winter set in one year Tim wore it every patrol with pride even if it was a little wonky in some places.
Jason’s the first to pick up on it. He mentioned targeting Red Robin one time and half his members threatened to quit on the spot. That’s Gothams collective child. The whole city will square up with you if you hurt him.
Oracles knows because it’s oracle. Stephanie was on the street before Tim was Robin. When Tim was just a Good Samaritan that everyone adored. She’s known the whole time and it’s am inside joke for them.
Idk about how the others find out, but it probably takes a while

instead of wanting to kill Tim for replacing him, Jason just wants to piss him off a little to keep him on his toes. he does this by changing his name and getting a degree in teaching, and then becoming Tim's English teacher at Gotham prep.
Tim is losing his mind because he swears on his life that his predecessor is literally his english teacher and is literally failing him- and nobody fucking believes him.
Jason thinks it's the funniest shit he's ever managed to pull off. it gets funnier when while on patrol, Red Hood runs into the bats, and instead of helping the others fight him, Red Robin throws down his bo staff down and screeches at the top of his lungs 'STOP GIVING ME FUCKING DETENTION'

It would be hilarious if villains loved Nightwing and were terrified of Officer Dick Grayson.
Dick Grayson- who is used to open spaces and adrenaline- being stuck in a boring bleak office, surviving on shots of coffee and red bull with caffeine that would make Tim concerned.
The thugs soon realised that unlike most of the other cops - Dick was from Gotham.
No one fucks with Gothamites.
Villain *shooting at Dick with machine guns*
Dick *appearing from the shadows behind him*: Boo.
Villain: THIS IS A FIVE STOREY BUILDING HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET HERE
Or
Thief *throwing a counting down bomb at Dick*
Dick: *catching and tossing the bomb at a safe distance before turning round and shooting it so it explodes mid air while running after thief*
Thief: .. what the actual fuck
Dick: Gee look at all that time you had! Shame you threw it away :D
Thief:
Dick: I’m from Gotham
Thief *realising they fucked up* : Please don’t steal my bones
OR
Shooter: *sets elaborate booby traps throughout the houses in an active hostage situation*
Dick *using his training as robin and inhuman flexibility to surpass them with ease*: Ah been a while since I got to have a nice stretch thank you.
Shooter:
Dick:
Shooter:
Dick: .. Hi :)
Shooter: Are you Satan?
AND
In interrogation room
Murderer: I think I’ll take your eyes and add them to my collection
Dick *running on spite and caffeine that could give Superman a sugar rush* : Funny.. I was going to say the same thing to you
Murderer: .. what
Dick: I wouldn’t take your eyes though.. they look like the inspiration behind the whole Medusa’s “look at it and you turn to stone” thing-
Murderer: Hey! Take that back before I gut you
Dick *smile stretching wider without blinking* : oh? Or what? I know everything about you. Who says I can’t kill you and walk out with everyone being none the wiser? I know how to kill someone too..you aren’t special.
Murderer:
Murderer: I’m scared for my safety.
Because the thing is, Nightwing is who Dick really is. It’s who he can be free as, be himself as without red tapes and regulations. Where he can give as good as he gets, and he’s kind and empathetic. He gets to help the downtrodden and goes easy on most of them if they give up right away, not to mention the fact that he never causes permanent damage.
But officer Dick Grayson is a different story. He runs on sleepless nights and no self preservation. Seeing an officer with an uncanny skill set they’re scarily good at, not to mention the cheery attitude he always has scares the shit out of criminals. Cuz no way in hell is a smiling Gothamite not a deranged one. He chases crimes like a bloodhound, and isn’t afraid to make good on threats he makes to ensure they never hurt anyone again.
Bonus if the batfam doesn’t know about this.
Red hood: Shit I can’t believe we ended up in Bludhaven
Red Robin *tying up the corrupt politican* : Since this is a sensitive case, we need someone we can trust to make sure it is seen through.
Red hood: .. So we paying a visit to Officer Grayson?
Politician *screeching* : NO NO NO NO! PLEASE NOT HIM!! JUST KILL ME INSTEAD AND TAKE ALL MY MONEY I CANT DEAL WITH HIM!
Red hood: .. is he fucking serious?
Henchmen: Sir he is. And we agree. Please take our bones and kill us but don’t take us to Officer Grayson.
Red Robin: Wait what did he do?
Henchman 1: He asked boss if the hat was sentient.. and said that if it was would it make that hat the top and boss the bottom.
Henchman 2: Last time we met I tried to shoot him but suddenly my gun was blank and he raised his hand and let the ammo drop
Red Hood: Well even I could do that-
Henchman 2: They were my bullets. I had selected the colour personally.
Red robin *growing concerned*
Henchman 3: He sang a lullaby to a child when we were holding the station hostage, and replaced the people with my family members. He even sang their social security numbers!
Henchman 4: He’s the most dangerous of them all. I ain’t shitting ya when I say he’s as scary as the bat from Gotham.
*all nodding in agreement*
Red hood:
Red Robin:
Red hood: Nah that doesn’t sound like Dick
Red Robin: Agreed. Let’s go there Hood.
*villains’ sobbing intensifies*

I don't know if this makes any sense but like—I fully believe Tim gets his cruel streak from Dick. Not his parents, not Bruce or his other siblings.
Newly-Robin 13-year-old Tim looked at Dick threatening Bruce's life if he lets another Robin down and went, "I want to be just like him :)"
Tim calmly says he'll beat Ra's to the verge of death just to break his hands as he tries to crawl to the Lazarus Pit, just because Tim didn't like the way he looked at Jason.
Everyone else is like "TIM??? WHAT THE HELL??"
An apologetic smile spreads across Dick's face, "oh. Oh. Oh, yeah, my bad. I shouldn’t have let him hear me cussing out Deathstroke that time. Kid gets more and more like me every day."
"DICK?"
Tim's absolutely ruthless and Dick, remembering his younger days, is like that's my baby brother 😊 he's just like me 😊
The batkids are fighting over who's Bruce's favorite and Tim says, "I'm DICK'S favorite so I'm the one winning here-" and immediately gets tackled

[DC] oh no…I turned timkon into a miraculous ladybug lovesquare 🤒
Anyways this will barely make sense but Conner -> Tim / Robin -> Superboy is sort of supposed to be like the early timkon dynamic in the comics where they’d sometimes butt heads, but then the Tim -> Conner/Superboy-> Robin is supposed to be like later timkon where there’s more obvious admiration lololol

I ordered a commission from the incredible @gotham-gargoyle​ and it turned out amazing!!! AU with younger-than-canon Tim fan-boying over Red Hood. Could be seen as art for my fic, A Brief Interview (not a scene in the story, but definitely something that would happen later when Tim sneaks out while the others are on patrol). Jason is surprised and concerned by this tiny child following around a crime lord at night!!

AU where Jon is a football player and Damian is a part of a cheer squad who runs it like the navy. It’s love at first sight for Jon when he accidentally throws a football directly at the squad and Damian catches it without any hesitation. Damian chews Jon’s ear off about his bad form and coordination but Jon just stares at him with heart eyes.
Anon this is so important to me now
Just
It's another day of cheer practice and they're all doing their routines
Flyers are in the air when they hear someone shout "look out!"
Bases are moving to catch flyers safely as the football comes hurtling toward the cheer sqaud
Damian catches it before he's even turned his head to see what's going on
The football team is frozen as Damian turns a glare on them and approaches
The football captain is giving an apology as Jon just. Stares
He snaps out of it for a moment to apologize as well, since his aim was the one that was off and sent the ball flying towards the cheerleaders
Damian proceeds to start lecturing him on form, aim, and a few other things that Jon tries to take to heart
But he's too busy staring at Damian to catch much
So of course, after getting chewed out, Jon is now on a mission to befriend the captain of the cheerleaders
And Damian is entirely unaware of this as he spends his days wondering why the football player has been asking to eat lunch with him or study with him
