tim + brentwood characters as boys i was legitimately friends with in high school and think of every single day:
Buzz- Jake (fake names for all of my friends bc privacy reasons) who complained about hanging out with nerds, got into a fistfight with someone else on his football team bc they called us nerds, was thoroughly convinced he'd run laps faster if he was hopped up on pixie stix (i held his backback while he got sick in the bathroom👍👍), he tried to hit on my older sister and she laughed at him, he was so put out he contemplated becoming a monk for a week
Wes: Max, who i helped sneak an entire bottle of orange juice on to the bus to our choir competition, but was unaware he brought a full bottle of vodka as well, ended up crying on our choir teacher for the three hours after the comp and i bought him a box of donuts after school, he did not stop doing this and had severe beef with a kid he knew in 5th grade and hadnt seen since but also hadnt forgotten their name and last i knew, was still awaiting for a dreaded confrontation to eventually come
Kip: Eduardo, who we all thought was studying during lunch but was actually filling his notebook with weird facts he observed about us and also managed to chew several packs of gum at once throughout our math class before the teacher noticed him, didnt know the plot to the clockwork orange so i lied about it for 5 weeks before he read it and called me just to tell me "you lying frog" befire he hung up
Ali: Ángel, who lied several times on separate occasions to the campus security about where people smoked, forgot what chihuahuas were twice, and almost drowned when he was swimming except his older brother got him and he immediately called me while waiting for the ambulance to tell me he almost fucking died, randomly sang a song about crabs he made up throughout the day
Danny: Ben, helped me with my biology homework because i helped him with essays, once released a live rat into the computer classroom because he had beef with the teacher, once texted me at 11 p.m. because he was having a mental breakdown over his chem work before he realized he was actually looking at trig and i told him id shoot him with a tranq gun if he woke me up like this again, kept forgetting how to tie his shoes
Tim: Teddy, he catfished 6 men over the age of 30 by pretending to be a 13 yr old girl and lured them to the part of town where there is an absurd amount of wild dogs that evade animal control and are known to maul humans, i watched him lockpick the english teacher's door so he could take back an essay he wrote bc it was actually a slash fic he printed out and turned in by accident, we hung out at a dennys once and he accidentally put his hand in syrup, looked me dead in the eye and said "i did that bc im gay" and wore pastel pink for a month bc it pissed off the hall monitor, his dad, and also six teachers he didnt even have class with

au where the bats manage to stay urban legends, sure other heroes know of them, but they help largely from the shadows, they aren't put on display and they're hardly known at All outside of the strange circle of gotham's goons
that changes when duke thomas stares batman down and says on no uncertain terms that he's working day shift
the signal is Gotham's first confirmed superhero, and he wears a bat on his chest
social media goes Wild fighting over whether the Batman existed all along or if someone finally got the tech and powers to make the bat (or a bat) Real
suddenly the world of superheros feels a lot more real to the citizens of Gotham who got used to horrible disasters being either ignored or neatly cleaned away from the public eye, now there's a guy getting thrown through windows and helping grannies cross the street and the war between gotham and metropolis gets even more cut throat

once again thinking about jason as duke’s robin. he’s ~4 years younger than jason, and that’s puts him at 8-12 during Jason’s time as robin. that’s prime time to get attached to your local kid vigilante before your own life goes downhill.
and if we try to keep duke’s meeting with bruce in zero year + duke’s age (so he can remember the meeting and hold that conversation with bruce), he has to be around 8. if he starts following batman through the news at that time because of the mess that just happened, the robin he sees is probably jason. I’ve literally connected the dots

Tim was Dukes Robin.
Sure Jason would have been Robin when he was a little kid, but if we do our math Duke is about 2 years younger than Tim, placing him at about 11 when Tim became Robin meaning that Duke would have been 9 when Jason died.
At age 9, Duke, being a fully normal civilian for the most part, would never have fully connected with Jason’s Robin, he would have connected with the idea of Robin, but not any specific person behind the mask.
Then comes Robin 3. He’s different, at least thats what everyone is saying. But Duke doesn’t care. There was a new Robin, one who was smart and used his head to fight people *just like Duke*.
A lot of things change in Dukes life but Robin was constant.
He was crushed when a new Robin took over, but he adjusted. (He was a little ashamed to admit he was happy when his Robin came back)
Then Batman “died” and Robin disappeared and Duke lead We Are Robin and then he became signal blah blah blah.
After he joins the batfam, he is more than a little shocked to find out that his Robin is such a wet cat of a man (/aff) and so whenever people ask him who his favorite Robin was, he always says We Are Robin.
The rest of the bats never find out and Duke never tells Tim.

Dick: you dated Death!?
Bruce: yes, but I didn't know he was Death! And well, I guess the right words is almost married Death.
Dick: I… I need to sit down.
Jason: knew I saw that fucker somewhere before.
Stephanie: I mean, makes sense, he dated an Eldridge god, at this point be more surprised if he didn't.
Tim: is Death afab by any chance?
Bruce: yeah?
Tim: did you wear protection?
Bruce: that's inappropriate to ask and why does it matter?
Dick: because you last surprise ex girlfriend got us Damian, B, so did you use protection or not!
Bruce: I don't think so…
Dick: *rubbing his temples and reverting to Romani, saying a prayer for his sanity and his mother to give him strength*
Damian: so I might have a half sibling… I asked for a hell hound for Christmas father, not another sibling. 
Duke: you might've gotten Death pregnant… we just can't do normal scandals, can we? 
Cass: does explain why we did but don't stay dead, he's pissed you left him with a child, Dad.
Jason: wait, my death might've not had happened if he didn't knock up Death!?
Cass: most likely.
Jason: DAD!?

I stand by my decision.
Also, I want to talk about the fact I used such a cute photo of Damian and at the side it’s just ‘Purposeful Murder’.

Dick: Well now I feel left out

Dick: *takes a bite*
Dick:
Tumblr media
Bruce, in the background: *slaps his forehead* why are they like this
Jason: You wanna try Bruce?
Bruce, dad who feels bad when he says no to his kids: *pained smile* *through clenched teeth* Suuuure...
Dick: *hands it to Bruce*
Bruce: *takes a bite, spits it out into his napkin* Awful, truly atrocious, I'm going to sue, that was so awful

Damian & Duke Bonding? There are not enough of those in the world. Maybe this planet would be a better place if there was.
Duke: I'm heading out.
Bruce: Where?
Duke: Just hanging out at the museum with my friends.
Bruce: Good, then you can take Damian.
Duke: What? Why?
Damian: I have a paper due on Friday.
Duke: Ugh, fine.
Bruce: And remember, Duke, you're older so it's your responsibility to keep him safe.
Duke: Whatever.
[at the museum entrance]
Duke: You know the deal. Just stay out of my way.
Damian: Not to worry, I don't need anyone to supervise me.
Damian: *snatches his ticket and walks away*
Duke: That's a relief.
[dinosaur exhibit]
Duke: ...Yeah, then the principal said—
Duke: *sees Damian climbing a T-Rex skeleton*
Duke: Hey, look over there!
His friends: *look the other way*
Duke: *flips over the dinosaur and grabs Damian*
Duke: *puts Damian down and runs back to his friends*
Duke: Whoops, thought I saw something. Guess I was mistaken.
[solar system exhibit]
Dre, snickering: Uranus. Get it?
Riko: Oh yeah. Hilarious.
Duke: *sees Damian dangling upside-down from a planet on the ceiling*
Duke: I'm getting a phone call, one sec.
Duke: *grabs a ladder and meets Damian*
Damian: Can I help you?
Duke: *sighs and slings Damian over his shoulder*
[biodiversity exhibit]
Izzy: ...So I told my brother that, but still...
Damian: *leans over a railing*
Duke: *slips away and pulls Damian back before he falls*
Duke: You're lucky that shark's not real.
Duke: *goes back to his friends*
Damian: I would have simply adopted it.
[engineering exhibit]
Dax: Guys, check it out.
Dax: *launches a baseball catapult*
Duke: *catches the ball before it hits Damian*
[bathrooms]
Duke: *leaves the bathroom*
Duke: *sees Damian entering an exhibit under construction*
Duke: This kid just can't quit.
Duke: *tackles Damian away from a falling beam*
Duke, annoyed: You're welcome.
Damian: Tt.
[food court]
Duke: I'll take a ham sandwich and a cookie.
Steph, the cashier: Here you go.
Duke: *sits down by his friends*
Steph: Next!
Damian: I will have a vegan burger, apple juice, and cookie.
Steph: Sorry, kiddo, we just sold our last cookie.
Damian, disappointed: Oh, alright. I'll just take the burger and juice.
Duke, to his friends: I'll be right back.
Duke: *hands Damian the cookie*
Duke: How's the paper coming?
Damian: I believe I've gathered what I needed.
Duke, ruffling Damian's hair: Cool, just stay out of any more trouble.
Damian: Tt.
Duke: *goes back to his table*
Damian: *pulls out his notebook*
Damian, writing: Of the many things at the Gotham Museum, the one that stood out the most is my big brother...

Batfamily Powerpoint Night! (Part 8: Duke)
<<Part 7: Damian    |    Part 9: Barbara >>
[Masterlist]
Duke: My turn!
Bruce: Finally I can count on something normal.
Tumblr media
Bruce: [migraine noises]
Dick: I feel like this information and Damian is a bad combination.
Damian: Grayson, I am offended you assume I need lessons from Duke on how to lead troops
Tumblr media
Tim: You should bring the beard back Bruce.
Steph: Yeah your amnesia era was kind of a slay
Barbara: My dad’s Batman era was not a slay
Jason: Well maybe slay in a different sense-
Duke: That’s all behind us we’re moving on!
Tumblr media
Bruce: I don’t think-
Jason: Bruce sit down and don’t pretend like this isn’t exactly what you did to form your child gang
Bruce: I don’t-
Steph: Look into our eyes, Bruce, and tell us, your crimefighting children, that you did not start a child gang
Bruce: Hn.
Tim: That’s what I thought.
Tumblr media
Steph, Barbara, Cass: [hysterical laughter]
[talking over each other]
Dick: That is not what I looked like!
Jason: I looked so much cooler as Robin than that!
Tim: I looked cooler because I had pants, I can’t speak for you two.
Damian: My costume has been improved vastly since that iteration.
Steph: Alright, traffic cones.
Duke: Okay really not the point
Tumblr media
Barbara: Seems like this step should’ve come before the outfits?
Duke: It was my first time starting a gang let me live
Jason: Shouldn’t “training” have been part of-
Duke: This is not open for criticism thank you
Steph: Yeah only Bruce can critique Duke’s child-gang leader skills as a fellow child-gang leader
Bruce: [noises of general regret]
Tumblr media
Bruce: Why does something absurd always happen with you guys when I’m gone
Tim: Maybe because nobody in this house knows how to cope with loss or something I don’t know
Dick: Also it gets so much worse Bruce
Tumblr media
Dick: I mean that wasn’t exactly your fault
Jason: Cop Batman didn’t seem to agree
Barbara: [sighs]
Tumblr media
[talking over each other]
Jason: Woah woah woah
Tim: Hired??? You did not hire-
Damian: I did not say that?
Jason: Also I don’t remember being asked nicely I remember saving your a-
Dick: ‘Specialist’ sounds pretty cool and professional thank you Duke :)
Tumblr media
Steph: Is that Damian in a Court of O-
Damian: The situation was resolved I am fine now
Tim: “Beat up some bird guys”
Jason: I mean besides the imprisonment and attack on a school and Dick leaving us in the dust for a hot second there that’s basically what happened
Dick: I did not-
Bruce: Excuse me?
Duke: Don’t worry about it :)
Tumblr media
Tim: That’s n-
Cass: [signing] The Court of Owls is still-
Damian: That is libel
Steph: What a cute picture
Jason: Weren’t there casualti-
Duke: I have no idea what you’re talking about everything was fine in the end and everything is good!
Bruce: I am... so worried about all of you
Barbara: Well anyway let’s keep that streak going, it’s my turn. >:)

The idea of the Batkids doing normal people things while suited up is hilarious to me, you know, like Red Robin and Spoiler making the 9 o'clock news while racing through a grocery store because they totally forgot to get the things Alfred asked them to bring for the family dinner. Or Damian and Dick swinging into the Bludhaven Zoo mid-patrol because Dami really wanted to see the new baby tiger. Red Hood buying lemonade from a kid's stand and then standing there awkwardly messing with his helmet, trying not to hurt the kid's feelings. Black Bat, on a particularly tiring day randomly appeared in the nosebleeds of the ballet hall and started sniping phones out of people's hands. Or Signal and a deeply irritated Batman changing out a blown-out tyre in some back alley, earning amused looks.
