I am STILL thinking about how awkward any family holiday Tim brings Bernard to is going to be after his beef with Kate in TDR. gay lesbian hostility was real for a moment. they’re mostly fine now but there’s always an awkward side eye every time one of them enters the room. Bernard sadly eats his dinner without salt or pepper bc the shakers are in front of Kate and he doesn’t want to ask her to pass them. Kate stands to watch the TV at one point bc the only empty spot is next to Bernard. Neither will acknowledge the elephant in the room and Tim is so stressed (but also it’s a little 🤏 bit funny)

Timbern identity reveal, but in the most sitcom-y way possible.
Red Robin was injured on a lighter young justice mission, just a twisted ankle, but Kon didn't have anywhere else to be, so the kryptonian delivery service flew RR over to his murder boathouse.
He got Tim onto the couch, and helped him out of the top layers of his costume.
Meanwhile Bernard Dowed decided that breaking into his boyfriend's house at dawn to set up the place and make him a romantic breakfast was the best start to their 1 year dating anniversary, and as he opened the door, he was greeted with the suspicious sight of shirtless Tim sitting alone in the living room.
Whatever. Hey babe, what are you doing awake? I just wanted to surprise you. Let me put the bags down, and get you a shirt.
And that's how Bernard was greeted with the sight of Kon-el hiding in Tim's closet like a guilty side piece.
And Bernard's first question was "babe, why is superman in your closet?"

Hubris was the downfall of many men.
He remembers indulging in one of Jason’s many long-winded rants about literature, hearing his brother ramble on and on about how pride was the thing that killed John Proctor. Sure, Abigail made have been the leading cause of all those deaths, but John could have lived- could have seen his sons grow up- had he went through with the plan and lied… and yet, it was only because of a man’s pride did he leave behind his wife and sons.
And now as he lays alone and dying far, far away from family and friends… Tim couldn’t help but think hubris was what led him to… this.
His independence, once a blessing- now a curse, had him set out by himself with no foreword or warning to any hero or civilian whatsoever.
He feels… cold? Empty… Irritated. Oh what a time to be irritated, though Tim wasn’t all too sure who exactly his irritation was directed towards…
Bruce? Sure, he hadn’t been the best of fathers, but… he was all time had. Bruce hadn’t known Tim was going on this stupid trip, so he couldn’t be blamed.
Dick? Tim’s own personal hero? No, never. Dick might’ve hurt him before, but Tim couldn’t force himself to hold that grief even if he tried. Dick was spending the weekend with his friends, so Tim doubts he’ll find out about this until much later.
Jason? Despite being a grade a asshole, Jason cared. He had vehemently opposed Tim’s trip, and now he could see how it came back to bite him in the ass.
He laughs shrilly, tone nearing hysterical as Tim feels himself stop shivering… That wasn’t good, right? He read somewhere before that the moment you stop shivering, is the most dangerous.
Tim forces himself tighter into a ball, fighting to stay awake as he clung desperately onto his fleeing thoughts.
What about Stephanie? She got on his nerves occasionally, but those moments were few and far between.
Damian? Well, despite… everything, Tim has been trying to repair their relationship with what little scraps existed prior.
Cass? God, no. Tim could never be angry at her. She does her best, and honestly? Tim commends her for it.
Duke was a sweetheart. Kind, determined, and optimistic even after everything he’s gone through. he was the embodiment of sunshine through and through.
…
……
………
…………What was he thinking about?
He was… sleepy. Tired….
…Where was Bernard? Where was Kon? He was… numb. Was he supposed to feel this numb?
Taking a little nap wouldn’t hurt, right? It wouldn’t hurt at all….
“Oh, Detective, look what mess have you gotten yourself into? This is why you never should have left my side”

Fic: On The Record
"The video was uploaded to a random TikTok account with no followers, following no one, at 3:17am on a Tuesday."
Bernard (and Roy) start a vigilante TikTok. Gotham isn't prepared.
In which Red Hood reads thirst tweets, Nightwing is a troll, Roy gets candid, and everyone's pretty sure Batman does NOT approve.
