Годная попытка обоснования вканонности пейринга Тим/Кон. Конечно, убежденный дженовик не увидит здесь ничего кроме крепкой мужской дружбы, но, все же, автор заслуживает печеньку хотя бы за то, что собрал в одном посте наиболее вкусные моменты отношений доребутных Супербоя и Робина.
Осторожно! Длинная простынка!robinmagic:
Okay, let’s start with the YJ era. Now I know the least about this era, but I’ll make do. At this point in time, their friendship mainly consists of Kon loving to bug Tim, and Tim being a grouch about it, but really enjoying Kon as a friend. I don’t see them as a romantic pairing at this point, but there are some great moments that show how much they care about each other.
ONWARDS TO THE TEEN TITANS ERA. So, Kon’s a lot more mature at this point. Their relationship is very much based on trust and respect for each other, but they still tease and joke around. Tim helps Kon deal with discovering his parentage, and Kon helps Tim with the death of his father, Tim temporarily quitting being Robin, and a bunch of other angst that he goes through.
Like I said, the obviously care about each other a lot at this point, even if it’s just in a platonic way. Kon flipping out when Tim is “replaced” as Robin shows how attached he is to Tim and how much he needs him in his life.
And then. Oh lord. And then Kon dies, and the entire dynamic of their relationship is changed.
Tim falls apart. His dad and girlfriend have both died at this point, but Kon’s death is what sets him over the edge. This is where it gets romantic. This is where it seems as though Tim has more than platonic feelings for his late best friend. Platonic best friends don’t usually:
A. Change their costume in honor of the other.
B. Sleep with a picture of the other next to their bed.
C. Try to freaking clone the other hundreds of times on the slim chance that the clone will be similar to the person they once knew.
Yeah. That’s the sound of my heart breaking. On to Kon’s return.
Things at this point get kinda awkward for a bit. When Tim sees Kon again for the first time, he’s in a really low point in his life because he’s had a bit of a falling out with the Bats and Bruce is gone and things are just bad. However Kon tries desperately to be warm and supportive of Tim.
I don’t… I don’t even know what to say about these panels. There’s just so much raw emotion coming from Tim, it makes my heart ache. If the situation were the exact same but with a male and female, those lines would be seen as a declaration of love, no question.
TIM EVEN SMILES THE TINIEST BIT WHEN KON SAYS HE BELIEVES HIM BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE DOES AND ADFA;SDFJ FEELINGS
And then the infamous Red Robin #9.
THE HUG
Oh, but it gets better. Prepare yourself for what I consider to be the most canonical piece of evidence for Tim/Kon:
Kon is always listening for Tim. The way he hesitates before saying “We miss you”, when he’s trying to say “I miss you.”
And then Tim’s face. TIM’S FACE. That is the look of love. There is no other way to describe it.
OKAY WOW GOING BACK TO THE WHOLE THEME OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP WHICH IS ALWAYS SUPPORTING EACH OTHER AND BEING THERE IN TIMES OF NEED AND BELIEVING IN EACH OTHER OH LORD
One of the happiest moments of Tim’s life. Okay. Okayokayokay.
And then after that, there’s a whole slew of Tim/Kon moments, but RR#9 is still pretty much the best example. A few highlights:
yes boys
calling each other “my clone boy” and “my robin” is totally platonic
so heterosexual
Once again, coming full circle, Tim thinks he’s about to die, and the first thought that pops into his head is seeing Kon again.
So there you have it. I apologize for the extreme length of this post, but I hope I answered your question. That’s why I ship Tim/Kon- respect, love, support.
