was playing one of those competitive combat games (random dice specifically if anyone was curious) and i was thinking about how tim would absolutely be one of those types of people who is incredibly competitive and would start very one-sided rivalries with anyone. and i think it'd also fuel him to become too fucking good at the games he plays
tim, playing some random competitive game on his phone:
random user: beats tim's ass
tim:
tim: oh it's fucking on, bubble_jester17392. *proceeds to fucking grind HARD on the game, becomes OP af, then hacks the game to make it so that they match again and beats their ass*
and i also feel like sometimes he might do some low-level stalking of some people, depending on how much of a vendetta he has against them and probably also his mood tbh. i don't think he'd really go too much further than that, because he does has morals and he is not going to become a villain over a video game and he stands by that, but knowing who information about the assholes that keep beating him at snake.io or whatever makes him feel better dammit. not that really anyone knows about the vendettas other than maybe like steph or kon
Jason Todd with his goons:
Dick was the last to be adopted, Jason became the black sheep post-resurrection, Tim made himself Robin, Damian was dropped in Gotham after ten years of being kept secret, Cass possesses killer instincts that run counter to Batman's philosophy, Duke is a meta whose parents are still alive (albeit jokerized), and Steph has zero legal connections to the Waynes. All of the batkids have reason to believe they're the only one Bruce doesn't want around and Bruce is unaware of the problem because they don't vocalize it not just out of the usual emotional constipation, but also a deep-seated fear of being proven right. In this essay, I will—
and then they did<3

thinking deeply about the hc of Tiny Tim (tm, not a markiplier reference wdym) wearing really shitty disguises while he stalks the batfam. read about it once in a fic and it just has been fermenting in my mind for a while ever since
like me personally, i like to imagine him with a shitty blonde wig, some sort of colored eye contacts, and some random clothes he got from goodwill. he absolutely has specifically thrifted a bunch of clothes specifically for this purpose as well, because his paranoia started young and he wanted to make for damn sure he wouldn't be recognizable if he got caught. he also definitely tried to do makeup as well but even he knew it was too shitty to wear out.
i also like to imagine him like going to a random gas station or something because like what would the workers even say to that???
for example:
tim: *goes up to the register at 7/11 with a dozen redbulls and some snacks in his full disguise*
employee, confused: ? are you a cosplayer??
tim: what? no this is how i look??
employee, more confused but too tired to really question why this costumed 7 y/o is buying enough energy drinks to kill an elephant at 11 pm on a school night: ......alright that'll be $31.73
sometimes i'm like fuuuck bruce needs to get a hobby. but he does have a hobby. by god he does have a hobby
