Y/N had enough of her Dad's abuse so she go's to the two people she can truly trust.
Tumblr media
I can't call Damian he'll try to beat him for hurting me. I really do care about him. I'm honestly a little bit intimated by Bat's plus Grayson was more.. Fatherly to me. Grayson has always been a good friend of mine. He has always been there for me. He taught me to ride a bike when I was younger. Barbara was there for me when I first got my period. They were there for my first heartbreak even when their little brother Damian was the one responsible. He always gave me a hug when I needed one. They don't know that, my dad is abusing me.. No one does. I wanted to go to Grayson's apartment but I'm too nervous. I went to the Haly's circus. My eyes saw everything that brought me a thrilling excitement. I saw Grayson smiling out into the crowd. I wore my sunglasses with a hoodie on my head. I let my sadness leave me as, I watch the wondrous show. I used to dream about this place after a bad day. As it ended Dick went to the dressing room. He sat in his chair with the light up mirror on the desk. I walk forward my reflection in the mirror he gets up and looks at, me grinning.
"hey Y/N! What, are you doing here kid?! Like the glasses taking some of my old notes from me I see"
He hugs me I hug him back. I needed to feel safe. He probably had no idea how much I needed a hug
"I just wanted to catch the show" I lied.
"not buying that but I appreciate you coming all the way out here" he parts from me and touches my shoulder "so what's really going on? Are you ok?"
"yeah of course I am!" how do I tell him? "this is a bit of a weird question.. Can I..can I crash at your place.. For tonight"
"yeah of course! Babs and I would love to have you"
"thanks"
I went with Grayson to his apartment. Barbara brought me blankets and a pillow to sleep on the couch. I step into the bathroom and lock the door behind me. I wait to hear, them shut their bedroom door. I change into the clothes Barbara gave me. I look at the cigarette burn on my wrist, the nasty bruise on my eye and cheeks. My lips began to tremble. I couldn't take it anymore, I try my hardest not to cry. I'm lucky to have made it out without more wounds. I then start to go back to that moment. I feel my heart beating and body shaking. I can't go back! I can't. I breathe heavily as my hands feel like they're on pins and needles. I began to hyperventilate. Next thing I know the door is broken open. I screamed jolting back, thinking my biological dad had come, to make me come back. Dick held my shoulders I couldn't comprehend anything or where I am.
"shhh shhh it's OK hey, look at me. Look at me" I look at him still out of breath "follow my breaths" I mimicked his breathing "you're safe, you're in the living room.. Feel my hands. I'm right here.. I'm here. You're safe"
I nodded calming down realizing I'm in their living room. He was right there keeping me from falling. He helps me sit down I'm still quite shaken from the panic attack. My hands shake as I try to dry my tears. I sigh heavily humiliated. I'm so weak.
"don't feel embarrassed.. I cry all the time" Dick assured me softly laughing making me smile.
"he's right.." I tightly close my eyes trying to fight my fears away "it's OK sweetie. I've got you a big comfy blanket" Barbara said gently
Grayson sits beside me as I cling to him like a little frightened child. Barbara used her wheelchair to roll to us and lays a weighted blanket on me. She sits on the other side of me. Barbara gently rubbed my back and hugged me. I rest my head in the crook of his neck while holding Barbara's hand.
Dick's P. O. V
My heart is broken. Who could do this to Y/N? I feel so angered knowing someone hurt her. I then connect the dots.. We've been there for her for so long.. She didn't have her dad's support. How long has he been hurting her? Barbara leans over and kisses my shoulder blade knowing what was going through my mind. Y/N ended up falling asleep. My heart was beating rapidly with rage. I should have seen it. Babs text me on the spy-contact. I see her, holographic message
-calm down🥺-
-I'm trying-
I respond and I take a deep breath. Barbara looks at me. I text her asking her a question that would change our lives.. Forever.
Y/N's P. O. V
I open my eyes to see I'm in Grayson's and Barbara's comforting arms. I didn't want to leave but after last night. I've certainly overstayed my welcome. I carefully try to move away from their arms but they wake up. They both yawned but Grayson was more dramatic.
"you sleep OK Y/N?" Grayson asked
"Y-yeah.. I guess I should probably leave now" I said raising to my feet.
"wait don't leave.. I.. I want to help you.. We want to help you" Dick pleaded.
"I know.. But you can't.. He's going to keep doing it to me.. There's nothing you can do" I said completely defeated.
"yes there is. I can talk to my dad.. He won't ever hurt you again" Barbara assured me holding my hand.
"but.. Where do I go? I don't have any family. I.. I don't want to end up in foster care or in some orphanage for the rest of my teenage years"
"you can stay with us" Dick said.
I shake my head "no I can't do that to you two"
"Y/N we would love for you to stay with us" Barbara said she looks at Dick and then back at, me "if making extra measures to make sure you're able to stay with us.. Is what we have to do... Then--" I gasped
"are you serious?!" I nearly shouted nearly crying.
Grayson smiled and hugged me as his own tears came to surface "of course we are! I'd love for you to take the Grayson name.. If that's what you want"
Dick's P. O. V
It happened so quickly. Her dad was put behind bars. She was adopted under the Grayson name. Then I start to worry. Am I going to be a good Dad? She deserves a good family. I went to Gotham.. Maybe.. Maybe Bruce can be supportive for me. Maybe he can understand what I'm going through. I want to know the best way to help Y/N. Even with all of that, he needs to know. I walk into the study to see Bruce sitting on his office chair. I remember when I was Robin and I would lay against his chest after a long scary night.
"Grayson"
"hey B.. There's something we need to talk about" I said shutting the door behind me.
He gently nodded "yes?"
"I guess you know Damian's friend Y/N.... I adopted her.. Her Dad was abusing the shit out of her.. She came to us and.. It kinda went pretty fast after that and before you say 'I was going to' .. Because I know you were thinking that.. Damian likes her, and she likes him. Not many people see Damian for who he really is"
"I would not deem it wise for her to stay here. I'm aware of my son's affections for Y/N.. As well as she's closer to you. She'll feel safe with you and you have my full support"
"really?" I couldn't believe what I just heard "I mean that means a lot to me.. Because.. Because I really don't want to screw up. I know it will be hard sometimes" I sit on the couch "I mean I really care about her B. She's.. I love her like she's my own daughter.. Is that enough?"
I look at Bruce and I could see.. Empathy.
"I often recall asking that question to myself when doors were slammed in my face"
"I guess I turned out OK" I chuckled at his comment we've certainly had our moments, but I can't help feeling grateful he is supporting me.
"you'll be better than I ever was" Bruce said with a proud smile. "Alfred will want to make dinner to celebrate the new family member. I expect we will see all the Grayson's"

i actually think that after she's had time to catch up on some social development Cass is probably one of the better bats at passing for normal. she and Dick and maybe Steph have the best sense of performing "just some guy". Bruce, Babs, and Duke all overstep the mark and successfully pass as "not normal but not in a batman way more a this dude weird as fuck way" whereas Tim, Damian, and Jason are all under the mistaken impression that they can just be a version of themselves that is not a vigilante and come off as genuinely unhinged

ANOTHER SKETCH DUMP! Featuring more of me playing with lineless art. Batman reborn era trio (dick, damian and steph) I miss you...when will you return from war. Also featuring Steph designs bc I've seen ppl dissatisfied w/ her current look, some good mom Talia, and Jason Todd poetry club. Duke is confused not that Jason would start a poetry club but that he'd have such mid poetry opinions. (ID in Alt)
#dc comics#batfamily#damian wayne#stephanie brown#dick grayson#talia al ghul#duke thomas#cassandra cain#mine#woo new art tag. please god let me keep this up all year#uhh anyway yeah! still a big backlog of sketches but i got burnt out which means i had time to collect some#i feel like my art looks. extremely different w/o lines compared to with? idk i worry that's it weird/off-putting#but hey at the end of the day I'm hardly worrying about my brand integrity on tumblr dot com#duke and cass being at poetry club is based on them canonically being into poetry and for a good while duke and jason got along well#Steph is there for both jason and cass' emotional support (unfortunately there's a design flaw. she can't do both simultaneously)#(which is fine bc cass is fleeing the scene at the idea of having to casually hang out with jason)#(they're the exact amount of similar and more importantly different that it's like putting two firecrackers together. bad)#i really like the steph mask designs... it'd be fun to do something with them but idk what y'know?#I'm just like. if we're assuming that her mask has to be different from both babs and cass then this is what I've got as alternatives#i mostly wanted to practice character interaction with the talia and damian one... and also i love them#looking at james gunns batman movie proposal. you keep your hands OFF HER MR GUNN#please if shes evil in a movie they're never gonna let her be good in the comics again 😭#dc when you inevitably cave and do your next big reboot let the ppl finally have the son of the demon origin (w/ tweaks of course)#idk it's canon in my heart. heartcanon if you will <3#anyway yeah uhhhhhh enjoy?

A Catfish??
All of the bat children are horrified when they found out the boy Damian has been talking online, someone they were expecting to be a 5’3 twig. Someone who Damian has been crushing on for years turned out to be a 6’3 muscle-bound fucker that makes Jason look small.
They are even more horrified when they realized they never gave Damian the internet talk and for some reason Bruce is not reacting like this is something of concern and what the fuck-?!
The reason Bruce is not freaking out like the rest of his kids is quite simple.
He can see the last of the baby fat clinging to Danny’s face, he notices how even though Danny is a walking tank of a being, he still glances at the doorways like they could not be trusted.
Like he wasn’t used to his height.
No Bruce is not concerned, because all signs and research just points to one fact.
Danny Fenton has came into a Fenton-sized growth spurt.

You know, if any of the bats are going to kill the Joker: it should probably be Dick or Duke.
Like, I get it. 'Jason kills the Joker' sounds like the most obvious solution. But the thing is: Jason literally does not care about the Joker.
"But he's the man that killed him-" Sure. But that was a While ago. (At least if you ignore all the rebooting of the universe). Sure, Joker is a big symptom of what Jason sees as the problem. Which is: Crime needs to be controlled. Because more than anyone, he knows it won't be stopped. (It especially won't be stopped if no one is allowed to kill the bad guys).
But here's the thing. Jason's arc does not, and Should Not, revolve around Joker at all. Jason's story really never has been about revenge, and he should be Allowed to Move On from this one of the many people that hurt him. This isn't a: 'Oh Jason should learn to forgive and let go and not take revenge' this is a: 'the Joker is pathetic. Killing him just straight up doesn't do anything to Jason's arc or character.'
But Dick? Dick whose TRIED to kill the Joker? Dick who first donned the mask and tights to take revenge? Who wanted to make up for not being there for Jason? Yeah. This is the character that Would benefit from killing the Joker.
The first Robin has been around almost as long as the Joker has (both made in the same year) and it would be nothing more than divine justice for him to finally be the one to end him.
Well that's all well and good, you say. But what about Duke? What does he have to do with this?
You mean other than Duke being Awesome and he deserves to?
Duke's parents were hit by Joker gas. Pretty famously part of his character's back story. Duke has already killed a 'mirage' of Joker in the comics, which I think would be neat foreshadowing.
And think about it. The guy with light powers, the guy that works the day shift, by all means the Proof that Gotham really does care. Really does take things seriously. Why Shouldn't he get to kill off the personification of apathy?
Now the other point, and this is really just a personal vendetta, I would love Love the character that is Constantly ignored (at least by fandom) to kill off DCs 'specialist awful white man.'
The other person who should get to kill the Joker is Barbara Gordon (for self explanatory reasons) except I don't trust any writer to do it.
(She should get to beat that Thing into a white and red Pulp and shred his remains. No 'pull a trigger' no 'hire a swat team.' She gets to do it with her Bare Fists)

So I changed it a bit from the original, but there also was nothing that really fit Duke. I couldn’t make the best replacement but I tried. I also think any combination of Tim, Cass, and Steph is really cool and can be funny at times.
