#I feel like the majority of the Batfam don’t understand sibling relationships bc they are only children

[friendlyneighborhoodplebeian]

I want a Batfam au were Tim and Damian have a normal sibling relationship, but due to the fact everyone else in the family has been the only child up until their adoption into the family and don’t necessarily have the most normal sibling relationships with each other (Jason+Dick pre Jason’s death didn’t talk, Jason has heavy resentment for Tim, Dick is more of a distant mentor/hero to Tim, Cass isn’t around much, and Duke is new to the family) they don’t realize Tim and Damian have a perfectly normal sibling relationship. But to their only child brains they don’t know this and subsequently they think Tim and Damian have a really unhealthy relationship and hate each other. Like they get Canary involved to observe them and she’s just really confused because her and Sarah (White Canary, and her little sister) do all this stuff all the time, this is normal.

#batfam #batfamily #tim drake #damian wayne #batman #red robin #dc robin #batfam au #Like siblings trying to kill and endanger each other is normal #(I know people that have chased their siblings around with knives and put their siblings in washing machines) #And seemingly hating your sibling is an average day #I feel like the majority of the Batfam don’t understand sibling relationships bc they are only children #Yes I also know that Damian and Tim were only children too #But out of the Batfam I think they have the most sibling esc relationship #Like calling your brother “my little/baby brother” and “brat” in less than 2 pages is exactly what siblings do #I feel the rest of the Batfam are more distant with each other #Dick in Bludhaven #Jason with his own place #Cass traveling #Duke being new member of the family #They have their moments of “yeah they’re definitely siblings” but Tim and Damian are constantly acting like siblings #Their relationship is fundamentally different from the others in my head that I can stop thinking about it
