#anyways tim drake is now a very specific flavor of trans

[secrettreestuffidk]

idk who it was that started joking about tim drake wanting to be batgirl but i've tucked it away into my heart and i believe it entirely

like. he begrudgingly became robin after like 4-5 years of watching from afar thank-you-very-much because for fucks sake apparently someone has to do it and for fucks sake looks like no one else is doing it despite how many people he personally hunted down and tried to blackmail into doing it. UGH

but if babs ever even once just offhand said "hey y'know, batgirl is wide open" he'd have been ON IT in a HEARTBEAT

#anyways tim drake is now a very specific flavor of trans #that isn't particularly dysphoric and maybe even likes one or two things about being a Dude TM #and doesn't realize that Wishing To Be A Girl is a common symptom of Being A Girl #and just kinda thinks of it as vague personal trivia #like 'yeah my favorite color is red i think being a girl would be literally so fucking rad and i don't like olives' #so he never mentions it to anyone bc it's not really relevant it's just an opinion right? haha anyways #he probably accidentally came out during a young justice sleepover and bart asked if they should use she/her now #and tim just kinda stared at him and went 'no? why the fuck would you do that?' #and barts like 'but you just said you want to be a girl! we--aw he. hm. they? fell asleep.' #and just leans over and whispers into sleeping tim's ear 'weee supoorrrt youuuuu'
