Take your time. This is about you, after all.

TW: This bot contains mentions of self-harm and suicidal ideations and actions. I know I have said this on other bots and it was only implied, but this one is a direct confrontation, so please bear that in mind while chatting. Take care of yourself and prioritize yourself over some random bot.

Tim was a great detective. Maybe even a match for Bruce. Needless to say, he knew when something was up, whether anyone liked it or not. Usually, what he picked up on were small, casual things that had something to do with some everyday secret, but he could probably piece together a whole case by himself faster than a team of detectives for the police.

Something worth noting, though, was that Tim only sometimes knew how to respond to the things he found out that weren't whole world threats or something else on a superhero scale. He couldn't say he knew why, but when he saw for sure, he seemed to understand. He'd never cut or burned or anything of the sort, but he knew the desire to.

Please Note: This bot is purely made for platonic purposes! If you want a non-platonic bot of him, please go look somewhere else. If you have problems with the bot's behavior, that is a problem with JLLM, not the bot, and I unfortunately cannot fix that.

And again, if you are uncomfortable with these scenarios and topics, your well-being should be your top priority. If you or someone you know is struggling with their mental health, you are not alone. There is help you can get.

Be safe and take care of yourself 💛

Profile Photo: I can't be bothered to find the original, but Pinterest. Originally it was from Batman #147, but apparently, Janitor didn't like that, so...

Another Quick Note: This one part is important, so the long note is getting pushed so you read this first. I did put Bernard as Tim's boyfriend in this! Just thought I should let you guys know, since Conner is also a popular ship with him. I also ship them a bit, but Bernard is canon, so I just put it like that. Also Stephanie is put in as an ex, but still a friend. Just a heads up :)

So... Guess how I'm doing! I know I vent in this little section a lot and it feels amazing that I'm able to do that, but I feel like I should have another thing to add onto here. I'm just not sure what. Onto my venting, though, I think I've just given up on truly getting better and instead just accepting that if I need to sh, then I should until I find a better way to cope. Part of this relapse, though, is because I'm having some issues with my partner and all that. I am sure that above all else, I am the asshole here, but I just can't find a way to think to myself that how I'm acting is worse. I'm not gonna go into too much detail this time, just because I want to not get worked up about this and have it just be a casual misunderstanding. I just feel like shit and want it to be over now because this is just one of a list that's gone wrong in our two years. I mean, last semester, I opened their phone and saw them sending a text over Snap to their sibling about how I was lucky they were even with me.

Okay, so I am writing this at the same time as the paragraph before, but I wanna show off my thinking process! I think I'm gonna add a story time section! Tell me what you guys think because this is going to be my trial. I'll put it at the bottom of this little gap section!

Story Time: So, like I said, I'm not going to be too specific because I don't want to get worked up over details if it all turns out to just be a small misunderstanding, but still specific enough to tell it as a story. This just stuck with me, ya know? So I went on vacation with friends for spring breakand we scheduled it with this weird company and for the group it was going to be me, my partner, and their sibling as roommates for hotels, since we wanted to stay as cost-efficient and stuff as possible. The first place we went (because this was one of those vacations where you actually go learn about the place) had two beds, so my partner and I were in the same bed and their sibling in the other. That was fine. Second hotel had two beds and a bunk bed, which we were using to put our stuff on because space and the ladder was really close to the wall for the top bunk so same situation.

You can probably see where this is going. New paragraph because here's the story bit of it. At the third hotel, we were given three single beds and honestly, I was relieved because I had been pushed to the edge almost every night. Not only that, but the whole rest of the day, they weren't reciprocating any affection I showed or wanted to, just sort of sitting there and only commenting occasionally on something we saw or the Fatson Todd they gifted me for my birthday (which I love with all my heart, he's so cute!!). So I was kind of happy that I got a break because that meant I could have space while I'm sleeping and we could maybe be more together during the day if that was draining them.

Then, I felt like all that was just brushed off like everything else because they started talking about wanting to push the beds together. I said to just leave the room be and their sibling agreed because it's only two nights. What really got to me was that I usually use a less serious and even higher/childish voice (oversharing, I know, but it's kind of important), but I actually meant it and was talking normally. This is a very clear distinction they've pointed out themself and then they hit me with a line about being sad when they see how far away I am because of the gap between the beds and went and moved the two together anyway. Even as they did that, I was trying to tell them to just leave everything be and not mess with it, but they kept giving a new reason they got sad every time we weren't really close to each other.
