    Summary

    In Bernards defence, this was the only way he could think of to get Tim to admit he's Robin. The fact he started a conspiracy channel was mostly a sidenote.

    Or: Bernard doesn't like lying to Tim, so he needs Tim to admit he's Robin. Clearly, the only logical solution is to annoy Tim via conspiracy theories. Connor gets caught in the crossfire, sort of.

    Summary

    “So…” Duke drawled, sounding suspiciously wide-awake for the day shift kid at two-thirty in the morning. “If I said Damian and I are in a bit of trouble, on a scale of Jason to Cass, how likely are you to kill us?”

    Clearing his throat and rubbing his eyes to try to wake himself up, Tim grimaced. “What the fuck did you do?”

    “Nothing.”

    Or

    Tim and Bernard get out of bed at two in the morning to go across town and pick up Tim's reckless little brothers.

    Summary

    There’s not really a point in owning a car, especially with the cost of insurance. With the threat of student debt looming overhead like a cloud, Bernard can’t afford to buy a car without help, and there’s no way he’ll ever ask Tim.

    So Bernard doesn’t really drive. He’s happy to let his weirdly specific driving skills get swept under the rug, because the thing he has with Tim still feels delicate and new, and he doesn’t want to ruin it by bringing up that his uncle was in a gang and hey, he just happened to teach Bernard how to drive. Bernard wants to avoid any kind of conversation around crime in Gotham, actually. Especially after what happened in high school.

    It’s not like he’s ever going to need to drive a getaway car, anyway. As far as Bernard is concerned, it’ll never come up.

    Bernard learned to drive from his henchman uncle. The last place he expects to use this skill is at a dinner with his boyfriend's family.

    Summary

    Okay, so, look. Bernard probably should have messaged Tim to let him know that he was coming over. But in his defence, he hadn’t been expecting to bump into Batman and his entire fucking team upon unlocking and opening the door to Tim’s flat.

    He blinked. Blinked again.

    He closed the door.

    Opened it again. Rubbed his eyes just to make sure.

    Okay, yeah, no, he wasn’t so ill that he'd started hallucinating, they were still there.

    OR:

    Bernard is sick. Bernard wants hot chocolate. Bernard discovers Tim is Red Robin- wait. Bernard what now?
