saw someone point out that Tim wasnât immediately jumping to become Robin, and that he had gone to Dick multiple times before deciding that he himself had to step in. I donât think Tim blames Dick but I do think thereâs a tiny bit of resentment because he doesnât fully understand why Dick couldnât just come back to Gotham in order to help Bruce instead of a complete stranger doing it.
Imagine youâre Gregory House and you work exclusively alone and stupid Cuddy is making you take on a fellow or you have to up clinic hours by double. So of course youâre gonna make it fun. So you decide to find the richest, most pretentious and privileged doctor you can find (since cuddy wonât let you hire an untrained pr*stitute), a real âmommy and daddyâs little Angelâ type, and BREAK them. So lucky for you Rowan Chase has a son thatâs going off the deep end and really needs a job to straighten him out. Perfect. So you hire the little shit and decide to see how long it takes to break down his worldview. And he walks in, flowy golden hair, pretty eyes, and a fresh face. Of course heâs pretty too, even more privilege. Jackpot.
So you start him out and see how long it takes for him to call you poor and threaten to tell daddy, or use the phrase âdo you know who my father is??â And in a cunning plan you tell this kid to break into a patientâs house to find clues to their deteriorating state (you know whatâs causing it but GOD if it isnât interesting) And to your surprise he does, not only that, but finds a diagnosis, proving you wrong in the process. So you ask him to do more and more and get you a coffee on the way, and he does. The poor kid looks like bambi after his mother got shot when he realises he messed the order up. You put off and put off sacking the poor kid, because heâs fun and nervous, but heâs daring too, willing to start a good argument, but desperate to please. Not at ALL what youâd expected.
And then Wilson starts liking the kid, becoming grossly paternal, bringing him food and looking after him when he had to jump out of a window on a house visit (whoops) and telling you off when you go too far. You ignore the rapidly increasing connections youâre finding to the three of you and a family unit; youâre meant to toy with the kid! Not teach him how to throw a ball.
And then you find yourself looking out for the stupid kid too. When he gets into fights or, hell, subtly praising him when he thinks youâre disappointed.
And you realise you really like this kid, so when Cuddy asks if heâs too much of a handful and how itâs going you have to make up some excuse about having a young and pretty secretary is actually pretty useful, despite having the wrong parts.
That stupid little spoilt brat you wanted to hire is actually an ambitious doctor thatâs had no support, and you realise you actually want to keep him around and- despite the fact youâd never admit it- want to see him thrive. And if you hear him slip up and call you dad once or twice? Youâll let it slide.
the thing I love most about the âBruce and Jason are both TANKSâ supremacy is that it means, in all likelihood, that Nightwing, Red Hood and Batman went on a joint patrol together at least once and some out of towner goon, in a panic, called Nightwing â all 5â10 180 lbs of him â the âskinny one.â
