I really don't understand DC digging in their heels and keeping Tim with Bernard. The majority of actual readers don't like Bernard, the ship, or how Tim has been portrayed since the pairing. The vast majority of support is from mlm shippers who don't read or buy comics in the first place. I genuinely do not get why they are so hellbent on keeping him tethered to this dude the zero people get why he's so obsessed with.
At least with DickBabs(another ship I really don't get), it makes sense in the way that they are both batfam members so it makes things "easier", but Bernard is a goddamned nobody. Babs and Dick have fans. No one gaf about Bernard.
