Is that (no pun intended) spoilery for the current run of Teen Titans?
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Probably we will have Steph as Robin for at least 6 months...
Wait. Steph is going to be the new scrappy? Cool.

No idea if it is spoilery. Just an educated guessestimate on my part.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think the gravity of Tim's situation has been fully realised in TT. He has kvetched though. I'm not sure where the timelines are -- TT's behind Robin, but I can't tell how far.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Steph, if you're interested, there's a TT promo cover out now with Spoiler/Robin on it, so the story will at least touch there.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Sooooo. Teen Titans cartoon. Which Robin is that? And where are airhead girl and Raven from?
And then, Justice League, as they are back to back: I though Wonder Woman was always part of the JL, not just randomly called by a Martian. Or is that an early episode? (Has aliens in Metropolis. Which, now that I think of it, isn't very descriptive, as there's always at least one alien in Metropolis.)
Plus, when did Superman and Batman meet? Was Clark still in college when he became Superman, and Batman was already around?
Sorry to pepper you with questions.

I can field the Teen Titans questions....
Sooooo. Teen Titans cartoon. Which Robin is that?
They've never actually said. If we're going by current continuity, it would be Tim Drake. However, in an episode that flashed forward to the future, Robin had become Nightwing, which is clearly Dick Grayson's gig.
My guess is they'll never explicitly say which Robin it is, though *my* opinion is that it's Dick.
And where are airhead girl and Raven from?
They're both Titans of comic-book yore. Starfire (airhead girl) is from another planet and therefore a little out of step (in the cartoon, though not in the comic -- I mean, in the comic she's from another planet, but not out of step). Raven is the daughter of a human and that great big freakish demon in tonight's episode, and the danger with her is that if her emotions get out of control, her evil demon side will take over.
