My favourite Tim headcanon is that Alfred the cat absolutely adores him and Damian tries his hardest to convince the cat that Tim isn't that great
Tim has walked by Damian's room a few times and seen that the kid has gathered all of his animals together. Titus the dog, Alfred the cat, Batcow the cow, and whatever other animals are at the Manor are shoved into Damian's room. Tim would have told Dick about it, part to see Damian get lectured and part to see Dick coo at Damian, but he pauses when he overhears the conversation.
"Don't be fooled by Drake's demeanor. He may appear as if he is capable of excellent pets, but consorting with the enemy is prohibited. Some of you," Damian side eyes Alfred but doesn't outright mention him, "have taken to begging for pets. This is unacceptable behavior."
The lecture to the animals goes on for another ten minutes.
When the animals are released, Damian walks into the library to find Alfred the cat stretched out on Tim's lap. For a split second, Tim catches the betrayed and then exasperated expression of Damian. The kid quickly covers it up.
A week later, Tim catches the animals and Damian in another meeting.

Bruce with baby!Jason and toddler!Dick
Dick figuring out words but moves like he has no bones, cartwheeling, and Bruce has to keep running before him because Dick forgets the room eventually ends and then gets his forehead straight into a wall
Baby Jason Soo sweet and affectionate. Doesn't know how to give Bruce kisses so he'll kiss Bruce by bitting (but don't worry he doesn't have teeth yet)
Baby Jason being carried by toddler Dick is SOOO cute. Alfred taking pics, he's a proud grandpa
Dick likes when Bruce holds him upside down and giggles so loud it echoes. Jason who sometimes get so tired but still want to stay awake to play with Dick and Bruce
Jason will eat anything if he sees his big brother eating too. Jason who loves to watch cartoon with stories. He'll nod along to what Bruce says to him
Bruce getting back from a mission, says "ouch". Jason sees it, says "ooouch?"
Bruce will be talking to Dick and Jason will start to cry because he wants to be included in the conversation! He'll even babble along
One of those grey but comforting evenings where there's lots of rain and wind, Bruce flat out dead (sleeping) in the couch, Jason napping in his chest, Dick between the couch and Bruce and using his arm (that is not holding Jason up) as a pillow, snoring
Jason that pouts when he's focused (playing with his teether). Isn't easily tickled but does laugh when Bruce kisses his feet
His first word is "dick"

Cass doesn’t look, she glares
Tim doesn’t smile, he grimaces.
Damian doesn’t speak, he growls.
Jason doesn’t raise his voice, he screams.
Duke doesn’t watch, he scrutinizes.
Dick doesn’t smooth talk, he manipulates.
Steph doesn’t laugh, she cackles. Manically.
Bruce’s children are a little damaged, a little odd. If not in big ways, then in the smallest of ways that so clearly sets them apart from everyone else. Their line of work demands it, their breeding encourages it.
It’s just how they were made. Once they’ve been touched by the shadows of Gotham, it never leaves their veins.
It’s in their blood now. It’s seen in their eyes, their smiles. The twitch of their face, the narrowing of their gaze.
Gotham’s embrace never lets you go.

Headcanon that each batkid has one (1) person that if confronted by will make them fold like a house of cards.
Babs? She figured Dinah was being possessed in like 4 seconds because she wasn’t overcome with the urge to confess everything and it was weird.
Dick? Barry Allen. No one must ever know.
Jason? Alfred. Obviously.
Cass? Also Alfred. Those cookies are worth spilling all secrets.
Steph? Diana. She’s just so cool, okay? (Jason: I mean, she’s not wrong)
Tim? Martha Kent. Kon has attempted to use this to his advantage.
Duke? It was once, okay? Not statistically significant. Or something. Hopefully Cass just doesn’t need or want to know anything from him ever again.
Damian? Jason. It is his greatest weakness, and one he still can’t figure out how it came to be.

hc that even though we know that dick and bruce are like…hot, that all of the robin batboys are just like…ethereal gorgeous. and just like their mothers.
like dick, we already know man’s is gorgeous beyond belief.
jason is more handsome than pretty, but he looks just like his mom when she was younger and perhaps kinder, with long lashes and flush cheeks and plump lips, and looking like an angel when he wasn't about to shoot.
tim is the scary type of beauty. like janet drake, who was ready to cut someones throat in a second, ready to negotiate and ruin someones life with that cold cold smile. like the devil, with beauty that makes everyone around him envious. skinny, pale with blood red lips plump lips, high cheekbones, and a cold smile that makes you fall inlove and know that you're making a great mistake at the same time.
damian is always told how much he looks like a younger bruce, but really he looks a lot like talia. with soft, smooth hair, sharp green eyes like a tiger, pink lips that form a pout when he doesn't get what he wants, and beautiful dark caramel skin that still holds his baby fat, that will be filled with muscle like both of his parents.

yk those little behavior chart things where you get gold star stickers if you behave well? the batfam has one in the cave
each batkid has a specific thing they get a star for doing/not doing
jason gets a star every time he doesn’t lethally shoot anyone (like, not causing any permanent physical trauma) / manages not to shoot anyone in general
it’s the same with damian but for stabbing/using his sword
dick gets a sticker every time he tells someone he’s injured instead of hiding it (he… doesn’t have very many stickers)
tim gets a sticker every time he admits he needs help instead of trying desperately to be perfect
steph gets a sticker every time she lets one of them check that she’s okay instead of brushing them off
cass gets a sticker every time she doesn’t put herself in pointless danger or take unnecessary risks
duke refuses to participate because he finds it weird and pavlovian, but he’ll still put some up for fun
they all get one every time they use healthy coping mechanisms instead of self-destructive ones
they make their own for bruce and he gets a sticker every time he actually talks about feelings/successfully comforts one of them

AU where a robber breaks into the manor but the batkids are there and are actively encouraging the robber to loot the entire house

dick's nicknames for his siblings is by far my favourite thing ever.
jason gets "little bird" and "little wing" typical little brother shit. it doesn't process for dick to change these when jason ends up taller and beefier than him.
tim gets "timbers", "timbo", and "redbird". dick called him "timbers" the night they first met, the night tim watched his performance at the circus.
damian gets "babybat". he pretends to hate it. he doesn't. he does get "batbrat" from others, but dick never indulges. "little shit" also works.
cass gets "acrobat" but like.. bat. he also calls her "cassie" every now and then but she definitely hates that.
stephanie gets the usual. "steph". she thought this meant dick hated her for the longest time, until one day dick came out with "stephy" and immediately regretted it. everyone laughed. he admitted to her that he just couldn't think of anything nice enough.
and for duke, he gets "bumblebee". jason thinks it's hilarious. dick thinks it's sweet.

Gotham city caves to public pressure and asks Gordon to ask the Bats if they'd be willing to partake in Superhero Story Time at various Gotham Public Library locations. Bruce tells his kids, expecting to get annoyed replies about how busy they are, but they practically compete for shifts.
All the Bats are very committed to making fun voices, even if they already have a voice modulator on, and engaging the kids. As a result, the kids love it, it's the safest way to visit a Gotham public library, and the kids find it hysterical when the Bats eventually have to pull a vanishing trick or escape at the end.

the batkids absolutely have a shared spotify account. they each have playlists with the songs they like to listen to while patrolling/doing cases/training/etc.
it’s very popular; gothamites absolutely love listening to it. there have been physical fights over who has the best music taste. sometimes, if they know there’s going to be a specific bat around, they’ll play their playlist. red hood’s is playing somewhere in crime alley pretty much all the time.
the only person who doesn’t have access is bruce, because he might delete the ‘fuck batman’ playlist (which is, of course, a playlist of all the songs bruce hates. they play it whenever he annoys them).
they even have specific playlists for fighting different rogues. oracle can and will take over any speakers she can find to play them.

Fear Gas hc: Tim edition
Tim has a ton of fears and horrific memories that the fear gas can craft into nauseating tales of terror. He's seen them all: his parents dying, his friends dying, Tim becoming what he's fought against, Ra's being creepy, falling from the dinosaur, that godsdamned desert, etc.
What's the one fear that absolutely grips Tim until he's screaming, crying, and throwing up?
Jason dying again.
When the family found out about how Jason's second death petrifies Tim, they asked why Jason specifically. Tim shakily smiled and told them that Jason's first death was horrific and he never wants that to happen again. The family takes that answer. They ensure Jason is always available for Tim when he gets hit with the toxin. The only way for Tim to calm down, even after receiving the antidote, is for him to feel Jason's heartbeat.
Tim lied, though. Yes, seeing any of his siblings dying is horrific and one of his fears. Jason, though? That fear is born out of selfish necessity.
When Jason died the first time, Tim was the only one who was able to get through to Bruce. The teen loved his Robin run, but it was also extremely traumatic.
If Jason dies again and Bruce needs to be put back together, Tim would do it. Of course he would. He loves Bruce, his father. He would assist his dad and family without hesitation.
The process would kill him.
Tim fears Jason dying because he knows it would destroy his family and kill Tim as well.

random hcs that are actually cannon
- tim doesn’t have a password on his phone nor does he have a screen protector
- jason has a 25 step skin care routine that he does every morning
- dick despite popular belief only washes his face with soap & water, his hair on the other hand full on hair masks and everything
- they’ve all fallen asleep on the patrol before
- they all have a running bet to see who can get the most stickers on jason helmet
- tim always has cold feet, whoever he’s cuddling is subjected to his cold feet tucked under their shins
- whenever any of them call bruce dad he crys a little everytime
- steph braids cass’s hair whenever she wants it braided and she’s always really gentle too

Headcannon that when Alfred finally caves and allows the Wayne family to get a roomba, the bat brothers just go nuts over it:
Damian names it, and gets disgruntled when people simply refer to it as “the roomba”. Like, no, that is Cerberus? Get it right please
Tim tampers with it on more then one occasion. Hooks up some motion activated speaker/microphone mechanism complete with a voice modulator so that he can speak to whoever it passes. Steph is convinced for a whole WEEK that the roomba is sentient
Jason puts a few knives sticking out from it at some point. The whole family can hear Bruce’s screams when it enters his study.
And Dick just turns the damn thing off every time he sees it. He thinks it’s the worst purchase of all their collective lives

Batfam HC
In no particular order
Damian ends up taller than them all but for a period of time he was the same height as Tim and it was the most tense eight months at the manor
The only other physical effect the Pit left on Jason aside from healing his body is that his eyes now shine. Taking a nice picture of him is near impossible. He’ll stand where he knows light will reflect into his face to scare people. It’s Terrifying as Red Hood
Actually both Damian and Jason have the eye shine. Same with Talia and Ra’s.
Stephanie is a bottle blonde, she was blonde as a little kid but her natural color darkened to a medium light brown. Her license and ID and file in the batcave all say Blonde. It makes her laugh.
Every other hero that hasnt already had a Bat claim them will generally avoid the Bats whenever possible except for Duke. Everyone loves Duke.
All of them had to learn how to ballroom dance and can still do it
If it’s not a black or white tie event or meeting at WE offices, Tim has no clue how to dress himself. He lets Bernard dress him but that’s not really any better.
Bruce plays the piano very well. He stopped playing for a while after his parents died but got back into it before taking Dick in. He knows a couple classics like Clair de Lune [Alfred’s favorite] and Fantaisie Impromptu, op. 66 [his favorite] but he likes to improvise a lot. Helps him think.
Dick only knows how to cook three things without a recipe or instructions; Mămăligă, Ciorba de burta, and what he remembers of his mother’s Cozonac recipe.
Cass picks up instruments very quickly and so far knows the basics of piano, guitar, violin, and erhu.

Hello! Was wondering if I could request headcanons about batboys (Dick, Jason and Tim) having a touchstarved (gn)best friend reader who likes giving them hugs? It could also include just general hcs about the batboys as your best friends. Hope it's not too much, thank you!
Batboys + Touch Starved Best Friend
Tumblr media
Pairing: Dick Grayson x reader, Jason Todd x reader, Tim Drake x reader
Genre: fluff
CW: cuddling, general fluff, jason being a tsundere, kind of wholesome?
i was so excited to write this one! i feel like i rarely get batfam reqs so this makes me super happy!! i really hope it does our boys justice and that you enjoy it <3
ALSO sorry guys about slacking so hard on requests—life has been so chaotic and honestly I’ve been a little lazy. I’m gonna try and get some done this week while I have time off but I also have esports stuff coming up this weekend and next week
Dick Grayson:
this man is SO huggable 
like you could go up to him and just wrap your arms around him and he would not care 
i feel like he’s a very touchy/feely guy 
like he’s the type that’s just always touching the people close to him?
arm on the shoulder/waist, has his s/o on his lap
super respectful of boundaries though
if he’s your best friend, you won’t be touch starved for very long 
will hug you as much and as long as you want
and he’s a detective 
so if you’re too shy to ask or too sad or stuck in your own head
he will know and he will give you a hug 
chronic people pleaser so he’ll do anything to make you happy/feel better
Jason Todd:
tries to act like he doesn’t care/like he isn’t touch starved 
but he’s so down bad
it takes him a LONG time to get used to people and making contact with them 
and of course you love & respect him so no matter how touch starved you are, you won’t make him 
so one day when you’re especially needy and this man just randomly hugs you, you melt 
and from then on, you’ll just wrap your arms around him or lay on his lap on the couch
he acts like he doesn’t care but really his heart is racing and you’re just so warm 
once he’s used to you, he’ll reciprocate contact in any way he can
he especially loves to hold you against him to calm him down 
probably not as cuddly as Dick or as often
but when you’re needy, he’ll always be there to be your personal pillow
and when he’s needy, you’re more than happy to let him maul you 
he will NEVER admit to it or acknowledge it tho
Tim Drake:
this man is also incredibly touch starved 
he’s never been as close to Bruce as the other batboys/as close to his brothers 
and he doesn’t have tons and tons of friends either
so he doesn’t get much contact 
so if you just hug this man, it’s benefiting both of you
he’s probably a little awkward and stiff the first few times, but he really likes it
once he’s comfortable with you, expects lots of platonic cuddling
even sleepovers tbh 
you guys kinda connect over your loneliness and it makes you closer 
probably shows up at your door after patrol at least a few times a week just to hug you
also Tim can tell from just looking at you if you’re upset/lonely/touch starved
so sometimes he’ll just randomly pull you into him or lay his head on you
still gets a little flustered when you randomly hug him though
whenever you cry, he definitely holds you until you feel better too
