Guys. Guys, I just looked it up. This happened immediately before Tim finished his training and officially became Robin. This is the first time he met Ra’s. Ever.
This makes their interactions during Red Robin hilarious.
Gotham City Cop #1: The streets have been awful quiet the last coupla days. No supervillains, no one breaking out of Arkham. Even the mob’s lying low. What’s going on?
Gotham City Cop #2: Word is, Red Robin is in caffeine withdrawal and no one wants to draw his attention.
Gotham City Cop #1: The fuck? Red Robin quit drinking coffee?
Gotham City Cop #2: No man, the League of Assassins are shooting all caffeinated drinks out of his hands before he can drink them and the Bats are just letting it happen.
Strange little Tim Drake video, apparenly inspired by a clip called “The Rolling Girl” or something like that, in any case, it’s odd, but somehow hypnotic.
This is so cool!!
(Years of Vocaloid fandom has prepared me for this exact moment)
So the song Rolling Girl is about a really lonely girl who punished herself for the mistakes she makes by rolling herself down a steep hill. She seriously needs help, but she’ll never accept it, and continues to “roll away” from the only person who seems to care about her.
Some snippets of the lyrics can be translated to “One more time, one more time. Please just let me roll one more time,” and “No matter what ‘I’m fine’ so watch me climb this hill I’ll always fall from. Guess I’ll roll again.”
Even though this is a deceptively cute/cool video, it’s actually really depressing, but I think it fits Tim Drake really well (especially the fanon “more espresso will make me less depresso” interpretation of his character).
