So how do you think Jason finding Talon!Tim would work? Like we know with Talon!Dick and Calvin Jason gets adopted immediately, he is the owlet. So if, somehow, Jason stumbles on lil Talon!Tim, maybe he and/or Bruce found a bunker the Court had that no one knew about, or the Court was trying to rise up again. Do you think Tim would consider Jason, to his dismay, owlet? Or do you think Tim would go, "This my parent/older sibling/person who will keep me safe"?
Cause on one hand, you have this small child that is trying to parent someone older than himself, which is very Tim Drake, and very funny. But on the other hand he is just a sweet lil guy that has seen the horrors™ and really needs a hug.
Ooof I’m so torn!
On one hand it would be so adorable yet heartbreaking for Tim to go “owlet!”. Not because Jason is a tiny human, but because Tim takes one look at Robin and how vulnerable he appears to a trained Talon (Tim could have killed him ten times over in the last minute alone!) and determines that he has to be a big Talon now and take care of the squishy human who makes soft sounds at Tim and even smiles. Talon must protect at all cost!
On the other hand— just imagine little Talon Timmy crammed into a little alcove, trying to keep quiet with all the commission and screeches of the other Talons. Knowing he doesn’t stand a chance against invaders that can take on the older Talons and come out on top. And then Jason finds his little hiding spot, crouches down, and makes soft little crooning sounds at Tim. Trying to coax him out. And something about those sounds makes those alien instincts inside him perk up and go “Nest parent!”, and then Tim is barreling right into Jason’s chest, peeping frantically for protection and safety and love—
Urgh both options are so good don’t make me choose 😩
