Dick Grayson cop headcannons?

i-think-2-much:

sohotthateveryonedied:

• He got issued a gun that the police chief says he has to carry around, no matter what.

• Turns out, he’s actually pretty good with a gun. He can throw it like a boomerang and hit a criminal right in the head it’s great.

• The second he learned he got the job, Dick went to the nearest Dunkin Donuts so he could properly play the part of a cop by eating donuts with coffee.

• Whenever the Red Hood is in town, Officer Grayson is always the one who insists he be the one to go after him. The night usually ends with him bringing Hood in with handcuffs and laughing when Hood says he’s going to tattle on him to someone named Alfred. Hood escapes later that night, of course, but no one can ever figure out how he gets out so easily even with Officer Grayson guarding his cell. It’s a mystery…

• He regularly emails “Which Brooklyn Nine Nine Character Are You?” quizzes to everyone in the precinct and calls them by the name of their results.

I’m going to re-reblog this so I can expand why I love this.

Main reason:your take on Dick with a gun is the funniest thing I’ve ever read

But also, I have some things to add:

• Dick doing crazily acrobatic things that normal people can’t do just out of habit
• I.e. does a front flip off of a car and lands on criminal guy, knocking them to the ground.
• Just launching himself over fences
• Pausing a chase because,”That kid’s handstand form was awful and needed tips.” (He still catches the guy afterwards)
• Making one liners whenever he arrests someone but before he reads their rights
• Thinking about it, there’s no way at least one cop has never suspected that he was a robin
• Because he just did everything out of habit
• Like, he couldn’t help it
• How else was he supposed to jump a fence?
• Was he not supposed to pretty much do a gymnastics routine in order to jump across a chasm and catch the bad guy? Because he definitely could.
• “How did you tear the shoulder of your uniform like that?”—“Oh, I was doing a front handspring in order to get over this one box, and I must’ve tore it when I launched myself over the box.”
• Dick being FREAKING amazing at writing reports from “day 1” of his job (let’s face it: he’s probably written hundreds before he was a police officer)
• The police officers just learn to accept it though
• They might be cuffing some robber and they’ll watch Officer Grayson walking around on his hands because he’s bored and the robbers are like,”???” But the cops are like,”Oh, he just does that. We’ve learned to accept it.”
• “We’ll be fine, there’s no way they could’ve gotten over that one fence as fast as us.”*Cue Officer Grayson jumping down from the roof of a three story building*”You were saying?”
• Dick:does a back handspring—“FRICK IT’S OFFICER GRAYSON!”
• New Officer:Captain? I think that Officer Grayson is Nightwing…. Captain:Oh yeah, we all know, but we pretend not to know because we all like him.
