I returned to drawing Tiny Tim because I am a weak human being controlled by dopamine release
I think I'll make part two with Jason and Bruce, and I hope you want that too :p

More of me and my bro as bat bros incorrect quotes:
Dick, accidentally clicking the wrong thing on the bat computer: Oh wait, shit, I didn't want you.
Tim, standing ominously behind him: That's what Bruce said when I became Robin.
Dick:
Tim:
Dick: Tim, noo..

There is something so sweet,tender and meaningful about Tim being first and foremost a Dick Grayson fan. Not a Robin fan. Not a Nightwing fan. Just Dick, and after all they went through that never changed

Dick:
Tim:
Dick: That's not how you bite someone

Saw a post where someone wasn't sure if Tim being good at computers was a fanon thing or not and friend I am happy to inform you that he's been a computer/tech guy from some of his earliest appearances in the comics.
Tumblr media
Detective Comics (Vol. 1) #620 (Rite of Passage part 4) - immersed in the ~web~
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Robin II: The Joker's Wild #3 - tabletop roleplaying games and spending hours in the basement on the computer - not beating the geek allegations on these fronts, Timmy
Tumblr media
Detective Comics (Vol. 1) #676 - Dick was more into traditional detective work and tended to outsource the computer stuff in these days
Tumblr media
Batman (Vol. 1) #514 (Prodigal part 10) - hackin' through all the garbage and garble
Tumblr media
Robin (1993) #33 - Robin sneaking in and connecting Oracle with the baddies' mainframe so she can do her thing and steal all their data >:)
Tumblr media
Nightwing (1996) #6 - "no you're really talented and well suited to be Robin." "no, you." "no, YOU!"
Tim is definitely not as good as Babs/Oracle, but he's certainly her back-up for computer work in the 90's batfam. They're tech buddies and Robin!Tim is her little assistant sometimes, it's super cute:
Tumblr media
Birds of Prey (1999) #19 - happy to play with big sister's fancy high-powered toys
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Legends of the Dark Knight (1989) #125 - real cute kid
And Dick will hand off computer jobs to his little brother when he doesn't want to bother Babs 😂 (that outsourcing I mentioned):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nightwing (1996) #68 - examine them pixel by pixel, eh? welp, sounds like a job only you can do, Timbo, you got this buddy, byyyyeeeee
And then when he'd grown up and been doing this for years, he leveled up accordingly, and did stuff like use his access to the League of Assassins computers to overload the generators in every base he could find, etc. etc.
Tumblr media
Red Robin (2009) #8 - yeah that was pretty dumb of you Ra's :)
So yeah, it was a bit of a specialty of Tim's, in large part because he was introduced just at the turn into the 90's, when personal computers were really starting to take off and become widespread. (Robins gotta be cutting edge and all)
Of course, by no means does it follow that the other Bats suck at computers (there is no 'smart one' they are all incredibly smart and capable). This is especially true as reboots and the sliding timescale of comics have moved the DC characters into modern times, where computers run the world and everyone grows up with one in their pocket. The baseline familiarity and expertise that everyone can be expected to have is just much, much higher these days.
It gets exaggerated in fanon as all character traits do, but computer guy Tim is definitely not something just made up out of whole cloth :)b

the real reason that tim can't age over 18 is because if he did, dick would have an existential crisis about how old *he* is. wdym tim, who was 13 when dick met him, is 21 now. if tim has been doing this for 8 years, how long has dick been doing this for? wdym tim is legally old enough to drink now? if *that's* true then dick's no longer 25. when did dick suddenly get so close to 30. that's not a thing that's real. *his* annoying little brother isn't that old because dick's not that old. he hasn't really been working here for going on 20 years, right? can't be, because he just started here two days ago.
so yea, tim's not older than 17. who are you trying to kid here? dick's not gullible. he won't fall for your lies.
what utter nonsense are you going to try to tell him next? that damian's in high school or something? he's onto you.

dick & tim, first meeting in lonely place of dying

Dick stared at the ceiling fan. It spun, slowly but surely turning, ever ignorant of the world around it. It spun, regardless of the ribbon tied on the third blade, regardless of the breeze blowing in the window, regardless of the winter chill almost making his breath visible. The ceiling fan spun and the world spun and Dick couldn’t comprehend it.
The front door opened. Footsteps pattered into the hallway, past the kitchen and into the living room where he was laying on the floor and staring at the ceiling fan. The footsteps stopped for just a minute, before walking over to the window and sliding it shut. The lock clicked into place and a hand reached up to turn off the fan. Dick waited until it ceased any and all motion before tearing his eyes away from it.
“Have you eaten?” Tim asked.
Dick pried his mouth open, ignoring the awful taste that spoke of dehydration, “I…”
Tim waited a minute before accepting that was all he would get in response. He nodded, turned around and walked out of view. Dick watched him go with a pit in his stomach. A fourteen year old shouldn’t have to do the things him and Bruce made Tim do. Tim was too good. Too young. Too innocent. Except he wasn’t innocent because Bruce was breaking him and Dick was letting him and they were poisonous vines, weaving their way into Tim’s life, sucking the life out of him. Just like they did with Barbara. Just like they did with Jason. God, Jason. His baby brother, who was scared and suffering and died, all without Dick knowing.
“Dick,” Tim nudged him with a foot. Dick blinked, registering the water bottle and microwaved food in Tim’s hands. When had he had time to do that? Dick blinked again and he was sitting on the couch, food on his lap and opened water bottle in his hand.
Tim handed him the lid and a fork. “Drink and eat.”
Dick mechanically took a bite. Then another. Then a sip of water. He turned to look at Tim. His eyes were clouded and bruised, with his lip sporting a bloody cut that made Dick want to cry.
“Bruce?” Dick asked, voice raspy.
“Locked in the cave.”
Dick hummed, leaning over to bump his shoulder against Tim’s. He pressed his lips into the side of Tim’s head in the mockery of a kiss, trying not to remember doing the same thing to another little brother.
“Thank you. I’m sorry.”
Tim ducked a little to slide into place perfectly cuddled up against Dick’s side. “‘S okay. It’s always hard on the anniversary.”
Dick’s eyes watered. “It’s not okay, baby bird. You shouldn’t be…” looking after two grown men just because they can’t get their crap together.
“I’m sorry,” Dick said again.
Tim pressed closer. “Okay.”
Dick closed his eyes and thought absolutely nothing was okay.

More things from my day as batfam incorrect quotes:
Dick: You wanna know what I've never been able to wrap my head around?
Tim: Long poles?
Dick: The fact that- ..what?
Tim: I just feel like a head would be too thick and clonky to really get all the way up and around it if it's like a super tall pole, heads ain't flexible like that.
Dick: How does your head go to places like this?
Tim: I just explained that is not possible.
Dick: No, I meant like your train of thought.
Tim: Oh my thought process isn't a train, it's actually the 1998 batmobile.
Dick: Of course it is.
Tim: What's your vehicle of thought?
Dick: Why would I have an answer to that?
Tim: Come on, you've thought about it, I know you have.
Dick: ...
Dick: The original turtle van from the 1987 tmnt cartoon.
Tim: I knew it.

Battle of the Cowl
Tim reluctantly switching the Red Robin mask from a full cowl back to a domino even though he's not too pleased about losing the greater level of protection - because Dick!Bats (and then Nightwing once Dick switched back) kept automatically going for hair ruffles and getting Big, Big Sad at being cruelly Blocked.
Every. Single. Time.
Nightwing: (morosely rubbing over the curve of Red Robin's smooth black head) it's just not the same...
Red Robin: stop acting like I went bald you drama queen :/
Nightwing: oh Magic 8 Ball, will Little Red's hair ever return from the war...? 👋👋👋😔
Red Robin: quit it! (slapping hands) that's not even how Magic 8 Balls work and you know it 👿
Nightwing: I had a little brother once... with fluffy black hair... I remember when he was thirteen and tiny and not even Robin yet, he came to me for training and told me how much helping people meant to him... and I ruffled his hair for the very first time... 😔
Red Robin: this is really what you wanna do right now? guilt trip me over sensible full cover head protection?
Nightwing: are you still mad at me? is that what this is? your personal rejection of me, personally, because you no longer want my love and affection? 😔😢💔
Red Robin: 🙄 not everything is about you, Dick-- (belatedly remembers they're on an open rooftop, oops 😳 ...oh well, anyone listening would probably assume he meant it the other way)
Nightwing: 😔💔
Red Robin: ...(sighs and knocks his shoulder against Dick's) we literally patrol together twice a week, in what universe am I still mad? I'm just tired of all the head trauma.
Nightwing: 😔💔
Red Robin: 😑
Nightwing: 🥺
Red Robin: 😑😑😑
Red Robin: (shows up at their next joint patrol with a domino mask and fluffy, free-flowing hair) 😒 happy?
Nightwing: 😍! 👋👋👋🥰❤️‍ yep~
Red Robin: 🙄(...❤️‍)
