This is NOT what I need to be reading right before bed-time. So, naturally, I clicked on the link at mach speed when I saw it come up on my flist. \0/

Creepy!Timmy continues to be creepy. Discowing needs to graduate through his suits to the best one very quickly now, ok? lol

And Tim's parents really deserve it if he decides to start experimenting on them, next. WTF are they thinking? They know he's not right in the head (you know they know it!) and they just leave him there and skate off around the world? o.0

Bwaha. ...Sometimes I seriously worry for my mental health.

Haha, yeah, I'm slightly horrified at myself for writing Discowing into my story. But... it's canon! And it seems that even in an AU I'm too anal-retentive to depart from the source material when it comes to costuming. *headdesk*

Yeeeeaaaahh, Jack and Janet Drake, parents of the year! (They weren't really stellar in the canon, either.) Timmy's therapist told them he was better. And Timmy's gotten better at hiding the evidence. And the Drakes are afraid of their son, and ashamed of him, and in denial about it, and in denial about his problem... because Tim doesn't have a problem, he's just a little... socially awkward, and if they're out of the country for the most of the year, that's because of business, and has nothing to do with being scared of their son, because there's nothing to be scared of, because there's nothing wrong with him, he's totally better now. >>

To be fair, Discowing was really cool at the time (the same as most of Dick's other sartorial choices). It's only in retrospect that we look on them with...er, horror.

I'm amused at Timmy's being turned on by Dick in the new costume. Dick's not a boy any more, is he, Timmy? Stuffing him back in the cute little red suit won't stop you from seeing that now-you'll just get an even better view of his legs. ;D

I wonder if he likes Dick in the original suit because it reminds him of the circus, where their ~love began? I may have to go re-read. Hmmm.

[zolac_no_miko]

Yeah, that point's been made before and it's a good one. ...Doesn't stop the entertainment value in making fun of him, though

[realpestilence]

Perhaps once he weasles his way into Dick and Bruce's good graces (assuming he manages it), he'll become better reconciled to Dick being "destined" for greatness some other way. If Tim's Robin, he'll get to be close to Dick! :D

I think that might persuade him. ;D

I'm thinking about all the poor bats in the cave, though. D:

Ahahahaha. *cough* No comment~.

[realpestilence]

Mad laughter fading into a "no comment" comment does not bode well, I fear. 0.0

[zolac_no_miko]

Nothing about this story "bodes well". >:D ...But mostly I didn't feel like I could voice my thoughts without getting sucked into revealing my Plans. Spoilers~!
