Gentlemen, you may be wondering why I've called you here today.
From the Bat-Friending Meme thru which I know some of you, and general chatter across the Internet, we all know that Robin isn't the first choice for importation into the Nolanverse, with even Christian Bale saying I would rather have rabid ferrels dropped into my pantaloons then film a scene with a little boy in sparkly green panties calling me 'sir' (paraphrased).
On the other hand, several have said that Batman needs a Robin and Robin is an integral part of the mythos, with the fact that many of them ship Bruce/Robin pairings and think Dick Grayson is "hotness in pixie shoes" (paraphrased) being totally coincidental.
What's the solution? I think that should be obvious.
WENDY WATSON!ROBIN.

You say Robin is the light to Batman's darkness? Check this shit out:

Batman: My parents are deeead!

Wendy Watson: (in SEKRIT IDENTITY with mild-mannered glasses!) Cheer up, it can't be all that bad!

Batman: LOL kay! (paraphrased)

...it might help if I knew who Wendy Watson was. A quick googling identifies here as an English cricket player. Somehow, I don't think that's who you're talking about.

Also, she looks endlessly cute in a buttondown shirt and tie.

And she will not be blonde.

Weirdest costuming decision of the nineties: Giving Chris O'Donell a costume with pants, then putting rubber nipples on it. Talk about yer mixed messages...

We ignore the rubber nipples. They didn't happen.

Of course, the conversation on jerk ex-boyfriends would be awkward.
Wendy: My ex broke up with me, taped it, posted it on the Internet, and got a movie deal.
Barbara: My ex showed up at my doorstep after being brutalized and in clear need of help, so I kicked him out the next morning, leading to his eventual rape.
Wendy: ...
Dinah: Yeah, she's still a better S.O. than Ollie.
