Maddy watched her son as he chatted with his friends at the kitchen table, homework and after school snacked were scattered across its surface as Danny told his friends all about his new crush.
And that was exactly what it was. She recognized those soft pleading puppy dog eyes, those dreamy sighs and of course the way that Sam girl was bending the cutlery in her grip as she gritted her teeth.
If she hadn't tested her multiple times she would have thought Sam was a ghost! Now there's a funny thought! A ghost! Under thier noses the entire time! She could have laughed!
Bringing this up with Jack made him have the same conclusion as her. They needed to go to Gotham to capture this Red Robin boy and make sure he wasn't an evil ghost in disguise and if he isn't then they needed to give him a good shovel talk anyway. This was the baby of thier family after all. Thier little angel was the sweetest, most innocent child on the planet and they wouldn't let anyone hurt him!
Meanwhile Danny is whispering to his friends about how he had reanimated like 800 hot dogs and set them loose in Vlads business tower when Bruce Wayne was supposed to be visiting. They had little guns, swords, battle flags and everything
Maddie later realizes the Robin of the less red variety was also her sons "type" and tries to capture him too. She also considers putting her son in therapy cause she's noticing some unhealthy trends in his choice of significant others...
Later Danny calls the police station and asks to speak to batman. When asked why he confessed he wanted to ask if they could free his parents and that thier godfather was a supervillian who was weirdly obsessed with Danny and his mom and has been abusive in the past.
The bats didn't even get a chance to make a joke before the bat adoption papers were out.

Fanon Tim Drake tropes that have no canon basis:
- Dick tried to send Tim to Arkham:
This one is based in Red Robin Issue #4. 
In this issue, what Dick actually does is recommend a Metropolis therapist he knows. Tim then proceeds to fight him because how dare Dick recommend he get help.
 I do find this fanon trope great for the angst potential so yeah. 
 - Jason Todd’s attack on Titans Tower: This one has a lot of different points soooooo lets get into it
Okay, so this one is based in Teen Titans (2003) Issue #29. 
In most fics it has Jason as Red Hood the entire fight, but actually, he’s only in Red Hood gear for like five seconds before ripping it off to reveal the dumbest version of the Robin costume ever. (Yellow pants, it had fucking yellow pants under the green speedo from the original, it was so stupid)
In a lot of fics, no matter the genre or topic, Jason calls Tim ‘Replacement’ and in Titans Tower fics have Jason usually avoid calling Tim by his name. Not once does Jason call Tim replacement in canon and actually calls Tim only by his name, not using Robin to refer to him. 
- Tim Drake grew up alone in Drake Manor:
Okay so this ones pretty general so I’m not going to cite any particular issues for this
He actually grew up in a city town house, only moving into Drake Manor a while after becoming Robin
Didn’t last long though, he moved into a different townhouse following his mother’s death and father waking up because bankrupcy 
- Tim went out regularly to take pictures of Batman and Robin:
Okay so this one is based in A Lonely Place Of Dying, Tim’s introduction.
In the first issue of this i think? Tim is shown to be taking pictures of Bruce as evidence for the fact that Batman is going too far
There is no evidence that he did this regularly, and definitely didn’t do it for fun. He had a job to do and he got it done.
Another fanon one that i love but must admit has no canon basis 
- Tim as Catwoman’s sidekick:
This has absolutely no basis in canon
Its still great though
- Tim Drake was the ‘good’ Robin:
No. no he was not. Actually? None of them were the good robin. They were all horrible at their jobs. 
He regularly lied to Batman and bragged about it
Thats just a fact
He was always sneaking off and not listening to Bruce
Okay so I love most of these tropes and I am not saying that you shouldn’t write them, I’m just saying they aren’t canon. Write what you want, I have literally no authority and even if I did I don’t care and AUs are my lifeblood
