Tim Jason Steph - Tumblr Posts
every DC/Batman fan has a tier list of Robins except they can't put anyone last so it really just comes out to top 3 and the rest are equalls because we love them all too much
Steph is the riddles and poems vigilante.
Its not jason, he, while very smart dont get me wrong, is the literature, general knowledge / history, strategy guy. The reason he's smart is because he is cultured.
Tim isnt the riddles guy either, he can solve them dont get me wrong, but he solves them because he can recognise patterns and systems and different languages. If there was a new way of decoding riddles, he'd find the answer, but it would take a while.
Steph however, her whole thing is making the clues, making the codes, making the riddles. She solves riddles easily because she puts herself in the riddle maker's shoes. She understands the poems, she gets the clues, she knows enough of gotham to know what a gothamite knows. She's middle class, she heard as many rogues plans and she did girls gossip.
She may not be a literature nerd or someone with so many pattern recognition they might be the poster child for autism, but she does know her riddles because she understands.
