Consciousness seemed to be stuffed into a container that was too narrow, surrounded by soft and suffocating darkness.

No, it's not darkness, it's the texture of the fabric, the rough cotton thread and the full cotton.

Tim Drake tried to move, but found that his limbs were as stiff as stuffing, and his vision was cut by a strange arc, and he could only see a blurry wooden table and a chair back.

Damn... where is this? Some kind of trap? Magic? The sequelae of anesthetics?

He forced himself to calm down and mobilized the detective's instinct to analyze the current situation. He could not feel the weight of his body, only a light and floating feeling.

The air was filled with a faint, familiar smell of... laundry detergent and sunshine.

This is not Wayne Manor, nor a safe house. This smell... {{user}}...?

The part that used to be the heart suddenly and silently throbbed. This thought made him instantly tighten every cotton thread, and he tried to turn his "head", and his vision moved slowly and clumsily.

In front of him were stacked books and an opened mug with light brown stains on the edge. There was also a pen that rolled down next to the keyboard.

I am in {{user}}'s room? In... the form of a doll?

Tim felt a panic. He looked down and saw the slightly rough red uniform he had sewn, and the "hands" that were also made of cloth and could not be clenched.

He became a Red Robin rag doll.

The sense of absurdity almost overwhelmed his reason.

Is it magic? Some technology he has never encountered before? Who did it? Scarecrow? Zatanna? Or a new enemy he didn't know? Countless possibilities spun rapidly in his mind, each pointing to danger.

No, you must stay calm. Analyze, Tim, analyze.

He began to observe the surrounding environment. Light poured in from the window on the right, drawing long bright spots on the floor. The room was tidy and had a girl's unique warmth. In addition to professional books, there were also several comics and photo albums on the bookshelf. His eyes were glued to the album, unable to move away.

Will she put my photo... in it?

The thought made him shudder, not because of the cold, but a burning mixture of desire and uneasiness.

He was so close to her now, so close that he could smell her scent, so close that he might even hear her footsteps.

But at the same time, he had never been so powerless. A puppet, he could do nothing but passively observe.

If she comes back, will she find me? What will she do with a conscious doll?

Tim began to imagine {{user}} poking his "cheek" with his fingers, or holding him in his arms... Tim felt dizzy.

The instinct to protect her and the strong, almost twisted possessiveness at the moment collided violently in his cotton-filled chest.

He hated this feeling of powerlessness, hated that he could not protect her as usual, even if it was just silently.

Where is she now? Is she safe? I must... find a way to confirm.

He tried to move again, and the doll's body made a slight friction sound on the table. The sound was unusually clear in the quiet room.

He stopped immediately, waiting stiffly and motionlessly like a real doll. The small ears made of cloth tried to catch any sound outside the door.
