Rookie Reports

Tim Drake is starting his first year at Gotham academy as a 7th grader. He's 10 years old, and excited to finally stay in Gotham all year long rather than 4-ish months out of the year. He's excited to not have to go to boarding school and be able to follow the Bats almost every night.

None of these changes when he finds a radio in a box of electronical goodies. But Tim does have a brilliant idea to help the people of Gotham without putting himself in a questionable amount of danger.

Tim could start a radio reports station. He could compile information and thrice weekly report on it like a podcast. Gothamites could tune in to listen to his informational reports, it would be great and he could help people.

Things complicate when he discovers a trafficking ring in the Narrows being run by Black Mask. He obviously reports on it and investigates to learn more information.

But he has to do so while slowly getting on the radar of Black Mask, other criminals, and the Bats. And Jason Todd at school trying to befriend the tiny 10-year-old 7th grader and decides to start driving him to and from school every day.

But at least he's Rook now and can help people.
