Tim & Bruce both had an unspoken countdown to when Tim turned, not fifteen, not sixteen, but fifteen and nine months.

They don't talk about it. Not with each other, not with anyone else, but they are both very, very aware of when Tim has officially lived longer than Jason ever had the chance to.

#character death mention #child death in fiction #fifteen years eight months and slightly less than two weeks #Tim Drake #Bruce Wayne #DC #Batfam #I'm not sure if Dick and Alfred have the mental countdown too #I think it's more likely that they notice after it's passed and have some Feelings #which they also keep to themselves #Bruce talking to Cass about Jason not getting to see eighteen is actually progress for him #this is probably more in the realm of headcanon than meta analysis
