[ How is this fortunate? This is not a fortunate distraction. Impact tremors are never a fortunate distraction.
Tim feels them. Tries to tell himself it's someone with a ton of speakers in the trunk and the bass cranked - cities haven't cornered the market on over-the-top sound systems.
Sees them rippling a nearby puddle. No, that's not a subwoofer bigger than he is. That's. Something else. A lot bigger than he is.
It doesn't take long to spot Godzilla after that, even with perspective issues. Tim gets an eyeful of him at full height. Calculates the rough distance and thereby the height.
Holy giant lizards. He could sink a grappling hook in the space between scales.
Tim reaches for his belt instinctively - no, it's gone. Bruce has it, and his bo, and everything else he would find useful against a kaiju. Even having been warned, he would feel better with a weapon in his hand. He's tempted to call for Kon and Bart, honestly, because this doesn't feel like equal footing.
Shrinking down does make Tim relax, though. He's smaller than Killer Croc. That's very manageable. And he's waving, so, that's ... nice? Tim weakly waves back at the now-miniature kaiju.

This is very normal. ]
