Tim Drake oneshots

(10) New Persona

The Hall of Justice buzzed with excitement as heroes and legends gathered for a celebratory gala honoring their recent triumphs. The atmosphere was electric, with laughter echoing off the walls, but amidst the grandeur, one figure stood out: Tim Drake, now donning his sleek Red Robin suit. He was on a mission-to charm the Greek gods present, and he had no intention of holding back.

Standing near the buffet table, Tim spotted Wonder Woman chatting animatedly with Ares, Hermes, and Aphrodite. The gods were in rare form, sharing stories of their divine escapades, and Tim couldn't resist seizing the moment.

"Excuse me, can I get your attention?" Tim called out, striding confidently over to the divine trio. "I just wanted to say, you all are definitely the highlight of this gala. I mean, look at you-gods among mere mortals."

"Bold, aren't you?" Ares replied, a smirk playing at his lips. "What makes you think you can charm the gods, young Red Robin?"

Tim leaned in closer, a playful grin on his face. "Because I know how to keep things exciting. A little charm, a little wit, and I'm pretty sure I can keep even a god entertained."

"You've got some nerve, kid," Jason muttered from the sidelines, arms crossed. He raised an eyebrow, shaking his head with a mix of amusement and disbelief. "What's next? Asking them for tips on how to rule Olympus?"

"Actually, that's not a bad idea," Tim shot back, unperturbed. He turned his attention back to Aphrodite. "So, Aphrodite, what's your secret? How do you manage to look so flawless every day? Must be tough competing with mere mortals like myself."

Aphrodite laughed, her melodic voice ringing through the hall. "Flattery will take you far, Red Robin. But tell me, what do you truly seek? Love? Power? Adventure?"

"Oh, I seek adventure," Tim replied smoothly, leaning against the table with feigned nonchalance. "And maybe a little romance along the way. You know what they say, life is too short to play it safe. Besides, I wouldn't mind getting to know the goddess of love on a more... personal level."

"Careful now," Hermes teased, his eyes glinting with mischief. "You might find yourself in a bit over your head. Not everyone can handle the weight of divine affection."

Tim grinned, undeterred. "I thrive on challenges. But tell me, how do I get your attention? Do I need to win a race? I've heard I'm pretty fast when it comes to impressing someone."

"You think you can outrun me?" Hermes asked, a smirk on his face. "Let's see you try."

Jason, leaning closer to Barbara, whispered, "This is going to end poorly. He's practically begging for trouble."

Barbara chuckled, shaking her head. "He's fearless, I'll give him that. But flirting with the gods? This could get messy."

Tim turned his attention back to Ares, undeterred by Jason's skepticism. "And you, Ares-what's it like to command armies? I'd love to hear about your strategies. Maybe I could join you sometime, you know, learn a thing or two about being a true warrior."

Ares raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "You want to learn from me? You realize the battlefield is no place for mere banter?"

Tim shrugged, his confidence unwavering. "Maybe not, but I'm not just a pretty face. I've faced my share of battles. Just ask the Joker or any of Gotham's finest." He flashed a charming smile, completely unfazed by the god's scrutiny.

Damian, crossing his arms with an unimpressed expression, chimed in. "You're embarrassing yourself, Tim. They don't want to hear your mortal tales."

"Oh, come on, Damian," Tim replied, turning the charm up a notch. "You know you love it. Just because you can't flirt doesn't mean I shouldn't try."
