At the local bar doing trivia night theme of presidents absolutely whiffing failing every question. Nobody on our team knows fuckall about the presidents heights this isnt basketball and everyone here isnt a sportsgay even if it were. Here comes the next question. Who was the only president who never married? My boyfriend and I look at each other. Wild eyed. Knowing. Hush falls over the bar as groups panic trying to divine this knowledge from the aether. “I know this one” beckett says, sounding hunted. “I know,” i say back, like we’ve been stalking a great and terrible man-eating beast for its head and turned around to discover it behind us. “Who the fuck,” my friend says. The answer rises in me like the tide. Unstoppable. “James Buchanan,” i say, and then bite my tongue to stop myself from continuing. Dubious, but aware it’s the only response we have, my friend writes down the answer. “Why?” my other friend inquires. “How do you know that?” “People think he was gay” i reply. We are gay enough that this skates without further inquiry. My boyfriend and I avoid eye contact. Our answers are graded. We have failed trivia. Oh my god did we ever fail trivia. But question 11- who was the President who never married? has a stark graphite checkmark next to it. James Buchanan. Our friends laugh about the gay people knowing the gay president. Becketts hand finds mine under the table. We exchange a look of profound, soul eroding knowledge.
We went to stucky together.

Sleeping Beauty AU where the princess was born on a Leap Day, so when the evil fairy curses her to prick her finger “on her 16th birthday”, her family realizes that’s not the same thing as her 16th year of life and she’ll actually be in her 60′s when it happens.

“Jason was the son that Bruce was prepared to be a dad too-“
Yes, because the first child is usually the trial run in parenting, but I see a lot of people saying that it was Jason that Bruce took active part in parenting which if you look throughout comic history is simply not true, because keep in mind Dick was EIGHT. That is a child. I think people are confused about their canon age differences but in general when Bruce acquired Dick, he was in his mid 20s. He may have been a emotionally stunted man but he was still a full grown adult.
Bruce was the one who came to Dicks room at night when Dick was having a nightmare.
Bruce was the one who made sure Dick did his homework at night.
Bruce was the one who checked Dicks report card to see how he was doing in his classes. Bruce was the one who attended parent and teacher meetings to make sure that Dick was keeping up with his schoolwork.
Bruce parented Dick the same way he parented Jason. People use him not being adopted to push the narrative that it was because he saw Dick as a partner first misses the context that in the age that Dick was created (1940s) a bachelor adopting a young child was seen as odd.
Especially because Jason being taken in was due to Bruce missing Dick. Bruce had empty nest syndrome because his eldest had grown up.
In their relationship, Dick was not an equal. Dick himself said to Tim, the reason Dick fired Tim from the Robin mantle was because to him Tim was his equal. In the end Batman told Robin what to do, in the end Batman was the one who gave orders. In order for an equal relationship to happen, both people in the relationship have to have autonomy.
Which then comes to Dicks rebellious teen years. If the relationship came from an equal place then why was Dick so eager to look for independence? The titans gave him that. This was a son that had grown out of being under his father’s shadow and seeking to find his own identity outside of him. The split that came from the partnership/ the reason why nightwing happened was because Bruce saw Dick as a son before he ever saw him as a partner.
I want to reiterate by saying that yes maybe to Dick, Bruce might have been multiple things but in Bruce’s POV that was never anything but his son.

You know how there's a subset of martial arts Tiktok where people post short vids of them doing a quick routine/choreography?
People in Gotham post blurry clips of the Bats, and a few martial artists challenge each other to reproduce the moves. One vid goes viral and more people start to give it a try, including non martial artists, who just meme with the choreography/try to imitate some moves just in good fun (and whoa some dancers and gymnasts do surprisingly well)
It naturally gets back to the Wayne brood, except, of course, the real challenge for them is to fail in a believable way.

Tim, on camera: "I was nearly good enough for the Olympics, surely I can do that...? Let's find out."
[cue footage of him falling down, cartoon-style, right as Damian was walking by and getting both of them drenched in Dami's smoothie]
---
Jason sees the compilation someone made of Bruce's ridiculous attempts at reproducing the moves (Tim and Steph roped him into their shenanigans.)
Two days later, a video of Red Hood goes viral: it's him condescendingly explaining how to throw a punch and challenging Bruce Wayne to do it properly because "no Gothamite should be so shit at fighting"
Bruce is verklempt when he watches it, because some of it is word-for-word how he taught baby!Jay
---
Tim gives Damian blurry, grainy footage of Black Bat to imitate. After that, Dami spends days hounding Cass for training because he nearly broke his nose tripping over his own feet.
---
Dick flawlessly lands a flip in front of all the others with "ASSERTING DOMINANCE" written on screen before winking at the camera.
Right before the video cuts, Tim's voice can be heard saying, "Whatever, your ass is still flat compared to Nightw—"
