I think instead of focusing on the teen titans tower incident we should focus on tims 16th birthday instead because that was INCREDIBLY fucked up. like bruce orchestrated a test for tim in which he recieves a message from future alfred where the future is ruined because one of the bats betrayed them and it was upto tim to find out who or everything would be "doomed".
And that's just so messed up like he became so paranoid and couldn't trust anyone around him and ended up having a severe mental breakdown because he's spent weeks following around his family and has ways of taking them down. ofc he figured out it was a test but bruce fucking congratulated him like it was a good thing. it affected tim so badly that he quit being robin for a while too.
oh and when tim came back to being robin he knew bruce wouldn't apologise and when he told bruce this, bruce smirked and went "good".

Please the look Charles throws his way after asking that question, we all know who is the person Carlos would marry lmao you guys aren’t fooling anyone
Charles is so giggly and Carlos so fidgety for that question. Are you hiding something boys? 👀
Maybe they are...
.
Charles is laughing inwardly, before he even says anything, just seeing the next question on his card.
"Vegas is the wedding capital of the world," he reads, keeping his composure (for now). "If you could have had a quicky marriage," he looks up at Carlos at the word marriage and cannot contain his smile any longer, "with anyone from history there, who would it be and who would perform the ceremony?"
The smile stays on Charles' face but he keeps his composure enough not to burst out laughing. He knows how uncomfortable Carlos is going to get from that question. And Charles wants to see him squirm a little.
"Who would I marry?" Carlos asks.
(He's trying to win some time, to think of something.)
"Yeah."
(There's nothing he can say that will be okay.)
"In Vegas?"
(Not in front of his secret boyfriend.)
"In history?"
(Not in front of cameras and an entire crew.)
Charles nods at him, smile still wide on his face. His cheeks are starting to hurt and Carlos is just as lost as before.
"I don't know," Carlos finally says and Charles just giggles, can't contain the glee any longer.
This is so so much fun.
"You are going to be in trouble for answering that," Charles can't help but tease him before giggling again.
A tease for the cameras, a sort of warning for his boyfriend who absolutely cannot say any other names than Charles and yet cannot say Charles' name, either.
"Whatever I say, it's a trick question."
Exactly. And Charles just delights in seeing him squirm and fidget in his chair and coming up with the first answer that can be somewhat acceptable for the cameras.
"My current girlfriend," Carlos says, making a face and fidgeting again in his chair.
Charles is still giggling, unable to stop. Oh, Carlos is in so much trouble. He'll pay for that one tonight and they both now it. Still, Charles has some sympathy for his nervous boyfriend.
"Alright, we change the question."
"Yes, please."
Why are you sounding so relieved Carlos? Charles can't help but tease him a little more.
"Can I make the ceremony though?"
He looks straight at Carlos as the silence stretches for a second longer than it probably should. Then he sees the glint in Carlos' eyes. And finally:
"Yeah yeah, you... I would hire you as a master of ceremony," Carlos answers, relieved, playing with Charles.
"Ah, beautiful. Alright. Amazing."
They move on to the next question, the slight tension on Carlos' shoulders easing. Okay, maybe Charles pushed a little too much. He can't help it. It's not often he can make Carlos squirm a little. He'll apologize later tonight when they're just the two of them.
But maybe he'll make him pay a little too for that girlfriend answer.
They'll be together, that's all that matters.
