when the two least affectionate guys ever start dating, their love language becomes acknowledging each other's presence
how to tell your friends you want to join their relationship

Do it, Tim. Succumb to his speedster seductions, do it, kiss him.

the idea of Nightwing finding out Robin joined a team with Impulse and being like "no no no no. i've played this game before. i cannot let a speedster corrupt my baby brother."
so Nightwing sneaks into YJ HQ, scares the shit out of Impulse, and asks him "what are your intentions with Robin?" and Bart is deeply confused. all he knows is that now, in addition to his grandfather's mentor plus a founding JSA member and a current member of the justice league, the leader of the teen titans is also on his ass about his professionalism (albeit, for very different reasons than the others). and that's not even counting the grief that Tim's been giving him.
he tries to be subtle when he asks Tim what the beef between Nightwing and Kid Flash/The Flash is and Tim's like ?? beef ?? "oh, right. they dated for a while. but they're on good terms. still best friends."
and Bart is shocked. no, he's ECSTATIC. next time Wally tries to lecture him (which he's been waiting for), Bart is sooo smug when he pulls the "well at least I'm not swapping spit with the team leader....."
Wally stops in his tracks and is like. will you excuse me for a moment. he grabs Robin from Gotham in a second and is at Titans Tower in the next. he sits Dick and Tim down and goes "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE."
Wally, head in hands: this kid is NEVER going to respect me again
Tim: to be fair, he didn't have a lot of respect for you to begin with
Dick: *slaps tim upside the head*
Impulse keeps badgering Robin about it, but any chance to tease Dick is a chance taken gratefully, so he indulges Bart and even shows him a few photos that Tim took during his stalker era of Kid Flash looking longingly at Nightwing during a mission.
And it's all fun and games until Bart realizes he's developing feelings for Tim and begins to wonder if this is some sort of generational curse. he decides the best person to ask, of course, would be the original Flash.
Bart, walking into the kitchen one day: Hey, Jay, can I ask you something?
Jay, suspicious of Bart actually asking permission to do something: ....sure
Bart: did Grandpa ever go out with Batman?
Jay: *spits out the coffee he's been drinking*
~ after a few minutes of sputtering, cursing, coughing, and then uncomfortable silence ~
Jay: there were a few times where, for the mission, your grandfather and Batman had to go undercover as dates to parties and galas and such.
Bart, who's been conditioned by Tim to harvest hilarious blackmail of his family, friends, and colleagues whenever possible: Are there pictures?
Jay: why in God's name would you want PICTURES??
Bart: I would like your permission to Date Tim
Alfred: Shouldn’t this be an ask for Master Bruce?
Bart: Well, I kinda assumed you ran most things here.
Alfred: Ah, A clever boy. You will suit Master Tim very well.
