Unless he was misquoted when talking about the Nightwing suit, it definitely sounds like Dick's time as Robin will still be a thing .
Which also means Batman probably exists in this universe, because you can't really have Robin without Batman, even if they only allude to him like the Teen Titans cartoon did.
Roy and Starfire were all that remained of the old Titans when the New 52 started. Everyone else was erased or unaccounted for. So moving all the known Titans to be Jason's friends while Dick had no friends, no connections with anyone at the time, and did not create the Titans was not a good place for the character to be.
Jason and Roy actully make more sense, and until Winicks Outsiders Dick and Roy weren't actually that close.
I'm beginning to think Titans and Teen Titans should be condensed into one book. We need more Dick/Damian dynamic, and maybe it's time to give Kory another try. They'e been broken up for--what?--twenty years now?
Btw. were people ever upset when Wally and Kyle, started to team up with Conner Hawk instead of with Roy?
I don't think that the first Outlaw team made that much sense (it seemed more like a team of characters DC wanted to keep arround but had no idea what to do with them), but Roy had imo allways the problem that he gets really his time to shine in Titans when Dick is not around.
I think they've got similar personalities and baggage, but I don't think that means Dick and Roy shouldn't be close either.
I don't think we really saw Dick interact much with the members of the Fab Five who didn't carry over into the New Teen Titans, outside their small guest appearances.
Roy and Jason together always felt like random team up to me. Also, while Dick and Roy don’t have particularly good chemistry, I like when Wally, Roy and Dick all together. And I much more prefer Roy in Titans, than in Outlaws. He and Starfire were out of place in Outlaws, imo.
I still think that Kid Devil would have made (in universe) more sense, since he and Jason were actually friends and roughly the same age pre flashpoint.
And Eddy was in the pre flashpoint titans actually quite similar to the RHatO Roy (from business perspective Roy might have been a better choise).
Not sure how would have been a good replacement for Starfire.
