Summary
Hood grunts. He wraps the fabric quickly, tying off the end so closely to an eyebolt on the stage floor that Tim can’t, quite, fully straighten like this. With the band wrapped from his wrists to the end of his fingers, he also won’t be able to pick at the knot with his hands. That’s fine. His plan requires him to be alone with the alpha. He’ll pick his time.
“Yeah, that’s good,” Hood praises firmly. Tim wishes he didn’t react to it, that he didn’t have a weakness for praise, but a small part of him perks up from the focused anxiety to preen at the comment. I’m pathetic. Hood only rubs another hand over Tim’s hair and turns back to Jack with a final, “Good boy, baby bird. I’ll be back to collect you in a minute.”
Baby bird.
Baby bird.
Babybirdbabybirdbabybirdbabybirdbabybir-- St-stop.Stop.STOP.
He can’t afford to fall apart right now. Red Hood knows he’s Robin. A crimelord-near-Rogue with a vendetta against Batman that the Bat himself is more secretive about than normal knows that Tim Drake is Robin.
Okay, then, even the playing field. What do I know about Red Hood?
