When Nightwing’s away on a mission and the only adult available for relationship advice is your, um, other older brother…

Jason: *shrugs* I don’t know what to tell you. Buy her something.

Tim: How does that work?

Jason: Well, you skip over any attempt to repair your emotional connection and you win back her affection with an empty financial gesture.

Tim: *tightening his tie and straightening out his double-breasted suit in front of a mirror*

Tim: I’m going to the movies with Tam. I don’t want her to think I think it’s a date.

Jason: Do you think it’s a date?

Tim: *clipping his cuff links and shining his black Oxford shoes* No, but she might think I think it’s a date, even though I don’t.

Jason: Or you might think she thinks you think it’s a date, even though she doesn’t.

Tim: *grooming his hair* Are we overthinking this?

Jason: *handing him a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolates* Not at all.

If you ever wonder what Red Hood watches on TV in his spare time…

After an intense sparring session in the Batcave:

Jason: *panting* Come on, Timmy. I’m exhausted. And Tyra Banks says that the most important item in your make-up bag is a good night’s sleep.

Mornings at the Manor…

Jason: *cooking pancakes*

Dick: *doing a headstand and using his feet as hands* Blueberry, Jay!

Alfred: *slapping Dick’s feet away from the kitchen counter* Same, Master Jason.

Bruce: *reading the Gotham Gazette* Hn. Same.

Tim: *pouring a fizzing liquid from one test tube to another* Same.

Damian: -Tt-

Jason: Okay, so the same for everyone, with extra spit on Damian’s.

On “The Wayne Family TV Special”…

Interviewer: *asks about the family dynamic*

Jason: It’s what we do. We give each other a hard time.

Jason: Hey, Timmy! You look like a praying mantis.

Camera: *pans to Tim*

Tim: *typing on his laptop, with sunken red eyes and coffee-stained clothes*

Tim: *deadpan* That was very hurtful.


Why Bruce agreed to this, perhaps we’ll never know.
