When you realize that little Robin’s not so little anymore…

Damian: I was going to spend the night with my special little lady –

Dick: *falls off the chandelier he was dangling from*

Jason: *chokes on the cigarette he was about to light up*

Tim: *wakes up*

Alfred: *accidentally pours tea on Tim*

Bruce: *freezes up*

Damian: – but she’s got worms and I had to take her to the vet.

Bruce, Alfred, Dick, Jason, and Tim: *collective sigh of relief*

The Robins as…

DANCE INSTRUCTORS

Dick

  • A lot of different styles, but mostly contempo or jazz
  • Daily outfits range from booty shorts to harem pants
  • Mind-blowing fluidity (and that he’s so easy to look at and utterly approachable is just the cherry on top)

Jason

  • Capoeira (or any style that’s close to a martial art)
  • Free sessions especially held for street kids (with Batburger meals on his tab if they choose to hang out afterwards)
  • Encourages students to embrace their individuality in self-expression

Tim

  • “I said a hip hop, hippie to the hippie, the hip, hip a hop, and you don’t stop, a rock it out”
  • Co-instructs with Cass, who’ll teach ballet from time to time
  • Makes sure to emphasize discipline as much as he does fun

Damian

  • Traditional dances from all over the world (like the Arabian Dabke) – recital-level costumes included
  • Yoga as warm-up (preferrably the one that involves goats)
  • “Water breaks are for the weak”

The Robins as…

TUTORS

Dick

  • “If a Kryptonian with a mass of… hmmm… give or take 103 kg, is at rest on a 45-degree incline…” *holding up a poorly drawn illustration of what looks like a stick figure with a red “S” on his chest atop said inclined plane*
  • [to the teenage girl who’s been ogling him since the session started] *tapping the notepad with a pencil* “Okay, eyes over here, young lady.”
  • Makes his students giggle endlessly because of his puns and silly examples
  • Spends extra time in reaching out to his troubled students and, if called for, approaches their parents (who trust him quite a lot)

Jason

  • Perhaps the most patient one of all (because apparently he enjoys mentoring someone)
  • Also the most structured one (thanks to his own study habits as a youngster before he – y’know)
  • Holds free group/one-on-one study sessions for street kids in Gotham community centers (in which he also includes anti-bullying and anti-drug abuse talks), with meals and school supplies sponsored by the Wayne Foundation
  • “Don’t beat yourself up too hard, kid”

Tim

  • Field trips to the Gotham City Library, S.T.A.R. Labs, Atlantis, etc. (”Like the saying goes, experience is the best teacher. Just maybe don’t, uh, tell your parents, alright?”)
  • Very adept at simplifying complex theoretical concepts (and his cheesy mnemonics are a hit!)
  • Invites his fellow Titans to hold group study sessions for students, especially when final exams are approaching
  • Enjoys hanging out with his students outside of tutorials (and secretly patrols their schools to make sure they’re safe)

Damian

  • His lesson plan includes the literary works of Machiavelli and Tolstoy (and that’s just for 4th graders)
  • Rewards (”Should you ace this exam – and by ‘ace’ I mean perfect it – then you will be entitled to watch me defeat a supervillain in the flesh”) and punishes (”An A minus! No creamy, frozen dessert for you!”) 
  • [Student] *crying* [Him] “… PENNYWORTH!”
  • Finds that spending time with other young individuals has given him a second chance at being a kid (which he would never admit to anyone, of course)

Well, this was fun. Thanks, @prison-mikes-bandana!

dark-haired-hamlet:

Me: *starts to say something*

My friends:

Imagine: Jason Tood, starting to say something, and whoever’s on the receiving end (e.g. Batsibling, Roy, Black Mask).

Note: So, I accidentally typed “Tood” instead of “Todd”, and realized this only because I was gonna replace “Jason Todd” with “Red Hood”. Why can’t it be both, right? Typo stays.

Mission briefing…

Batman: *clears his throat loudly* So unless anybody *glares at Tim for two whole seconds* has any more mythical creatures to suggest as a name for the new vehicle, we’re gonna stick with: the Warthog. How about it, Tim?

Red Robin: Nope. No more suggestions.

Batman: Hn. Okay, now if you’ll all –

Red Hood: *blurting out* Are you sure? How ‘bout “Big Foot”?

Red Robin: *gritting his teeth* It’s okay.

Nightwing: *trying to stifle his laughter* “Unicorn”?

Red Robin: *gripping his bo staff tighter* No, really. I’m… I’m cool.

Robin: *smirking* “Sasquatch”?

The Signal: *elbowing Tim* “Leprechaun”?

Red Robin: *elbowing Duke back and getting really annoyed* Hey, he doesn’t need any help, guys.

Spoiler: *yelling as she enters the Batcave* “Phoenix”?

Red Robin: *sighs and rubs his face in frustration* Guys.

Batman: *grinning* Barbara, what’s the name of that Mexican lizard? Eats all the goats.

Batgirl: *sarcastically looking it up on the Batcomputer* Uh, that would be the Chupacabra, Bruce.

Orphan: *drops down from the ceiling* Tim, Chupa-thingy, how ‘bout that? I like it. Got a ring to it.

Red Robin: *attempts to melt onto the Batcave floor*
