Very loosely based on this post. This is definitely not the picture @daily-shadow-and-tolerables painted in their reply to anon, but it’s what came to my mind for some reason. I’ll never do anything with Morse code again. This took forever to write out and double check. Oof.
Translation below the cut.
📝COMMISSION ME HERE!
I'm gonna keep it vague as to avoid spoilers, BUT THIS IS SO CUTE!! THANK YOU FOR THE COMMISSION!!
Go for it, Maxwell!
My collab with the wonderful @chuwanta for the @d20artbash! I did the coloring for this piece and they did the sketch and lines :]
[Red Hood and Red Robin squinting at Black Bat from across rooftops]
Black Bat, signing: <nothing that means anything in sign language>
Red Robin: . . .
Red Hood: "Bird"?
Red Robin: No ... I--I don't think so.
Black Bat, fingerspelling: C O L O N O S C O P I E
Robin, from third rooftop, fingerspelling to Black Bat: C O L O N O S C O P Y
Black Bat, fingerspelling: C O L O N O S C O P Y
Red Hood: what??
Signal, from rooftop, meta light power morse code: S K K O
Red Hood, in sign: Who R you calling a S I C K O
Signal, sign: H U H
Black Bat, sign: Who are you calling a S K K O, Signal?
Signal, morse: L V M L N E
Red Robin, sign: "Leave me alone"?

Red Robin, to Red Hood: "Yes."
Red Hood: Yeah.

I think Cap should be allowed to swear. But only in morse. He's smiling and nodding and chatting happily to another leaguer while in a bad mood, tip tap tapping away with a finger tip on the table. The ones who understand Morse are giving him increasingly horrified looks but he's not even LOOKING at them.
Mike saying "I'll stay with Will" but he's possessed by the Mind Flayer.
my morse code theory below is batshit b-b-b-bonkers, stay tuned.
In S5E6, Mike oddly taps after he stays behind with Will, who's lost in Vecna's mind.
Simply, perhaps this is due to Mike nervously twitching. *It could be something Finn, the actor, does because he's also a musician, or because he's counting to keep pace with the scene (however the scene is fairly simple and this tick would've been addressed during filming). However…
Tapping morse code is what Will did in S2 while he was possessed by the Mind Flayer.
It is also something prisoners of war do on cells/pipes, but there is a special system called the "tapping code." If we go by this method, he's tapping "FF" (which I've only seen modern gamers use as "forfeit"). The show didn't use this version, instead they just used morse code.
Mike makes three flinching bursts each hand. You can decode the speed of the movement or how hard he's flinching (it's harder to guess how much pressure he's using (we can't hear).
With speed, my eye is seeing "UD," his righthand taps twice fast, pauses for another tap. His left taps once then pauses for two more taps. He signals UD as in Upside Down.
With the severity of the flinches, his right hand flinches quickly. His left hand is stronger each time. Spelling out "SO" as in an S.O.S, a distress signal for help. Later adapted as "Save Our Ship" (BYLER).
Regardless of what the tapping means, the callback to Will's possession is suspicious. It could mean Mike is currently possessed or held prisoner in Vecna's curse signaling for help from the Upside Down.
