Chapter 2:

The first time Bruce's heart shattered, he saw his parents shot dead in front of him.

The second time his heart shattered, he was carrying Jason's broken body out of a destroyed warehouse.

After Jason's death, Bruce's mind would not let him rest. He didn't deserve to, not after failing his son that badly.

Sounds of Jason screaming for Bruce, mixed with the Joker's cacophony of gory clangs of crowbar cracking bone, were etched into his mind.

His thoughts took over his life.

He should've noticed that Jason had left to go meet up with his so called "mother".

He needed to be better, Gotham needed to be safer.

He will make Gotham safe.

It started with him cracking down on the Joker gang, but then he started to expand the list, any criminal who hurt kids would face his wrath.

All he would see in his mind's eye as he punched them to bloody unconsciousness was the Joker's face.

Batman might have broken his oath if he had caught sight of Joker during those days.

In the middle of the haze filled bloodbath that was Bruce's life after Jason's death, he somehow managed to miss a curious pair of eyes following him from rooftop to rooftop.

The first time he met Tim, Bruce flinched.

Another dark haired child with determination sparking in his eyes.

He can't do this again.

It got worse when he said he wanted to be Robin.

"Batman needs a Robin." He stated matter of factly.

Even though his hands trembled his eyes were locked with Bruce's own.

Tim was scared but determined.

"Robin's done, he's dead. No one else can be Robin again." Bruce croaked out. The kid's face looked crestfallen.

Good, maybe he'll avoid Batman from now on.

Bruce should've known it wouldn't be that easy. Tim had somehow managed to get Dick on his side.

How he managed to do that was a mystery, as Bruce himself was iced out of Dick's life.

Their communication being brief and work related.

The final straw was when Alfred managed to corner him in the library.

Jason's favourite spot in the manor.

"Master Bruce, you cannot keep avoiding young master Tim forever." Alfred stated

"It's for his own good Alfred." Bruce snapped not even looking up at him.

"Is it now? The boy's been running around with barely a jacket on in this cold, doing dangerous detective work to try and gain your approval." Alfred replied with a pointed stare.

"I tried to dissuade him." Bruce muttered.

"He's marked, you know that won't work." He sighed.

"Alfred I can't make him Robin, end of discussion." He replied in a frustrated huff.

In the end Alfred got his way.

He always did.

But the feeling wasn't the same. He didn't feel proud or happy when he saw Robin in the field anymore. Just relief that he's survived another day.

He kept a close eye on Tim as well, checking in via comms during patrol and spying in his bedroom to ensure that he hadn't snuck off into the chilly Gotham night.

He can't fail another Robin.

Until he did.

Tim had been caught by the Joker gang and he didn't even trust Bruce enough to call for help. He had multiple bruises and a dislocated shoulder.

He got away alive, but it could've gone worse.

Much worse.

Should he ban Tim from being Robin, should he tell his parents?

No that won't work, the Drakes barely seem involved in their son's life, Tim would probably find a way to circumvent the ban. The kid was too stubborn for his own good.

He was getting a headache.

Bruce rubbed his mark absently as he pondered on what to do.

just found out about the horrible italian translation of the confession scene in 15x18 (i know i'm like 3 years late but I just don't go there, like I don't even THINK about going there, it' been over 15 years that I'm done with italian translations and dubbing, it's one of those wars that can't be won so i just left) and it's such a cowardly choice, not to mention that the whole confession has been butchered not just the i love you part. but the most absurd thing is dean calling cas "castiel". I hope they didn't do that for the whole 11 seasons, that would be a serious crime. rai🤝cw

people who don't wear glasses are so weird like you just wake up and your eyes are pussy fresh??

APPARENTLY it's not socially acceptable to imprison your boyfriend in a devious plan of your own making, and frame him for your own crimes. Now he wont talk to me :( And then he sent some guy he met on Grindr to kill me :( I just don't know what I did wrong.

Imagining the various ways Batman and Brucie intersect from Jim Gordon’s POV and the funniest one my brain can come up with is:

Batman, examining the crime scene: “…you can’t do cocaine like that.”

Jim Gordon: “Wait. You can’t?”

Batman: “It’s not — if you try to inhale it like he did, you’d choke. But you wouldn’t die. Not even if it was laced with something.”

Jim Gordon, peering over his shoulder: “Uh huh.”

Batman:

Jim Gordon:

Batman:

Jim Gordon: “Why do you know so much about how to do coke?”
