tim is the batfamily's heart? 👀 -redbirdi

Apparently this idea is very popular. Will take under consideration despite it being a fic that's MAJORLY on the backburner and has little more than a summary and some concept notes written down. Welcome to the "It's Tim Drake Appreciation Hours" fic, everyone:

Summary: “Tim is the glue that holds the family together. It’s a shame he can’t see it.” Or: in which I explore how the Batfamily wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for Tim Drake being the living embodiment of the refusal to accept the concept of Batman as a loner hero.

I've made shitposts. I've written meta. I've waxed poetic and penned furious rebuttals about this topic. And now I have a fic about it.

Do I know exactly what I'm going to write it about or what the plot's going to be? No. Do I need to? No. This fic is about Vibes, Feelings, and the determination of one very, very stubborn teenager who self-appointed himself as Batman's emotional support therapist at the age of 13...and that's perfectly fine with me.

Ask me about one of my WIPs!

"What's the point of Tim Drake? There's nothing he brings to the table that the other Batfamily members don't have" buddy, I don't know how to help you understand that 7/8ths of those other people WOULDN'T BE THERE if it weren't for Tim Drake
