thattimdrakeguy:thebartallenblog:thattimdrakeguy:What Young Justice thinks of Tim VS. What Tim is actually like.I really and honestly feel like the biggest wasted potential in Young Justice was Young Justice never actually finding out what Tim is like.Tim spends all of his time pushing himself past his limits, and pretending to be extra tough because of his insecurities about being the powerless ones making him feel they might not want him on the team if they found out.But yet Tim is this anxious, insecure, naïve kid, that has no idea what’s going on, and I just feel in my heart that Young Justice finding that out to be so dang interesting. It would make for such a new interesting dynamic yet they never went in that direction sadly.They plant the seeds at the end of the series, with Cassie showing that she then knows that Robin is an act, and Tim showing up at himself in the very last issue, but Teen Titans elected to ignore that to make Tim a mysterious, show off, loner instead. Partially regressing him, and just plain making him out of character.It’s not even a subject matter I think I ever seen in fics, but I really find the idea fascinating. Even Tim’s size is smaller since his armor at the time had molded muscle and extra padding, and I figure Tim probably had lifts on his boots. You can tell in the issue Tim’s in the baseball uniform and he’s much more skinnier.Am I the only one that genuinely wishes they did a story on Young Justice finding out what Tim is like as Tim Drake?His reaction would be like:Oh my God! Robin it’s just a little dorky kid, our leader is a naïve nerd!After that, they simply discover that his boots make him appear taller than he really is.They’d probably never let him live it down. After a while it’s more out of sibling-like affectionate teasing, but they never let Tim live down on the boots making him look taller and all his toys, or even the muscle molded body armor.My guess is that Tim used a different voice as Robin to be taken more seriously, and since Tim at age 17 was constantly thought to be a little kid, I assume that means he has a high pitched voice.So when he starts talking with his actual voice they are just flabbergasted. “Was that a baby I just heard?”.It’s going to take them a while to get used to it, but they kind of love it in a way. Makes it easier to not take him so seriously.“Have we been listening to a kid that still wears underoos this whole time?” -- source link
