mother selina. yeah. ohhhhh she adores Bruces kids. Even the oldest ones!!!
with Dick it was a little… hm, tricky?? she never EVER wants to insert herself into these boys lives if they choose to not want her. dick hated it in the beginning. he had just lost his parents and was now put into this situation with his adopted father and his klepto girlfriend. she was sweet, yeah, but she wasn’t his mother. nobody was going to replace his mom. but.. then.. selina started coming around a lllot more.. she would make him.. hot coco on cold snowy mornings.. and watch movies the movies Bruce would never watch with him… and would take him back to school shopping… and would bring him soup and fuzzy socks when he got sick…. and FUCK man, she gave the best hugs and the warmest snuggles. OKAY! you got him, he adored his adopted mom. and he started calling her mom, even into adulthood. she stepped in without forcing herself onto him and that was exactly what he needed. she was there for him when no one in the manor was. bye crying.
as if that wasn’t angsty enough…. Ahem. Selina was there the moment Jason was taken in from the streets. she watched this skittish, curious boy turn into the snarkiest back talker. she watched him train to be robin and saw the excitement glisten in his eyes every-time he went out and kicked ass. she saw his quiet moments where he sat and did homework or read by the fireplace. they never really had a relationship, he acknowledged her presence and never turned down anything motherly that Selina would offer. he was stand offish with women and she knew that. so she never forced anything onto him and he appreciated that. but ooohh when Jason died. her heart shattered into pieces. he didn’t deserve what happened to him. we all know that. the manor always felt way too big after that. There wasn’t a kid around for aaawwhillee and she hated what happened to Bruce afterward. now when Jason came back and started to be cool with the family again?? THATS when they started their bond. theyll go out for lunch or grab coffee. he’ll rant about things and ask for help and she always happily listens. everyones sure jay is her second fav fs.
i’ve said this before ok…. but Tim is her favorite. its never outright said but the entire family kNOWS!!! She 100% spoils him, she’ll steal buy him clooothes, fooood, other silly things he needs or wannnts. its cute. before she moved in and married Bruce, she used to have Tim over for like girls nights and shit. they’d stay up and talk, gossip while mean girls plays in the background. they still do this after she moves in but its not as frequent. i also feel like tim hangs with harley and ivy. like they’ll all have girly nights and talk!! harley does timmys naaaillls while they giggle about random things. if tim is having an issue with his s/o, ivy will try to console him and give her best advice. selina will pipe in here and there. i love that hc specifically cus auntie harley n ivy own my heart.
Damian obviously has the biggest issue out of all of them. he cant stand another woman trying to squeeze her way into his life. he hates it. he respects her, of course. but he simply does not treat her like a mother. it breaks Selinas heart simply because she hasn’t done anything for him to outright hate her but she understands where hes coming from and always backs off. he opens up just a little later on but is still very.. side eye! they share a love for animals and like a few of the same movies. once, Selina took Dami out for boba ^_^ he actually loved it so much but never told anyone. i dont have a lot on her and damians relationship becauseeee i just feel like he really doesnt have much to do with her? they have their sweet moments but other than that, they don’t interact much.
im getting into Cass’s story so be prepared for some girl dad bruce hc’s soon

2021:4-Short
Damian Wayne had just pulled up to Marinette's high school and waited for his girlfriend to pop up. The only problem is that she was a tad bit on the shorter side and couldn't see her. He decided his best option was to get out of the car and look for her himself.
He was about to call her when he heard the sound of her voice and followed it.
"I was wondering, Mylene, how do you kiss your boyfriend when he's so tall." Marinette questioned.
"Marinette!" Lila shouted, "You can't ask things like that! How would-"
"I was asking because my boyfriend is taller then me." Mari growled out ,"I was hoping Mylene had tips."
Damian saw a girl with multi-colored hair blush. Before the girl could give an opinion, Damian grabbed Marinette's wrist, spun her around so she was buried in his chest.
"What I would do." Damian smirked, as he lowered his hands to her waist and lifted her up. Immediately, she wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist, "Is pick up my girlfriend and kiss her."
Damian leaned in and kissed her in front of the group. Marinette blushed and buried her face into his collar, making him smirk. Mari could hear the girls coo over how cute and romantic that was.
"Marinette sure knows how to pick them." laughed Alix.
"I hate you." whined Mari.
"You sure about that, Habibiti?" Damian chuckled, making her look him in the yes.
"N-No." she pouted.
"Now." Damian spoke, setting her down, "Your punishment."
"Pu-Punishment?" she asked, confused.
"For going to others instead of asking me to lean down so you can kiss me as many times your heart desires." he answered.
"What is it?" she questioned, blushing red.
"Selina is going to teach you how to walk in heels for this weekend." Damian smirked.
"No! Anything but that, Dami!" Marinette whined.
"So, I should go alone to my father's party, instead of having my amazing and talented girlfriend on my arm?" he questioned.
Marinette lowered her head and replied, "Okay."
She knew how much Damian hated those parties and every time she wasn't there, some other girl would try to persuade him to date them instead. A night in heels wouldn't kill her.
The next week, there were pictures of Marinette on Damian's arm all over the internet. She was wearing a pink dress that ended at her knees, showcasing her rose gold, five inch, heels. That alone shocked them. The Marinette they knew couldn't walk in flats. When they walked into class, there she was, her head down in her arms, in the back of the class.
"How?" questioned Chloe, stomping to the back.
"Promised me a massage and the moment we got in the car, I could take them off." Marinette yawned, "Even carried me to his bed so we could sleep."
"You slept in his bed?" shouted Alya in shock.
"Not the first time. I like to cuddle." Mari murmured.
Adrien smiled as he saw the group crowding, who he could only guess was his best friend. Adrien easily made his way to the front of the crowd and set the hot coffee in front of the exhausted girl.
"The coffee gods have blessed me." Marinette smiled, as she grab the cup and drank it.
Adrien laughed, "Jet lag?"
"Is a bitch." Marinette answered.
"Just drink your coffee. You get like your boyfriend when your not awake and I don't think anyone here would like to get on his bad side." Adrien commented.
Marinette glared back in response, surprising them.
Adrien gestured to her face, with an amused smirk, making her concede, "Finish your coffee so you're awake for lunch. I'm helping you study for a math test remember?"
Mari groaned, "I'd rather go through Selina's boot camp for heels, again."
Adrien slid into the seat next to her as people began to disperse.
"So?" he began.
"What?" she questioned, annoyed with the smirk on his face.
"What did you think about being tall?" he asked.
"Adrien!" she cried out, in anger.
He just laughed at the annoyed look on her face, as she continued to drink her coffee and fight off sleep.

Lean On Me
For @febuwhump  Title: Lean On Me Chapter 1 Fandom: Batman(Comics) Prompt: Head Wounds Pairings: Kon/Tim, Tim & Everyone Summary: When his signal for help goes unanswered Tim believes that this is it the Bats have washed their hands of him, he really is no longer part of their family.
When Selina, Pamela and Harley come across the injured Tim they take care of him and the Bats have to prove they still love and care for Tim before they will even consider letting them near Tim. Author Notes: This is a five part chapter fic each chapter featuring a  different prompt. You can also read it on AO3
Head wounds were sadly a normal part of being a hero, especially in a place like Gotham.
Tim could feel the cold seeping into his bones, he had lost track of how long he had been lying there. He couldn't see it given the colour of his suit but he could smell the tangy scent of blood in the air and worse of all he could see the mocking blinking of his distress signal the only light in the alleyway.
"I shouldn't be surprised." Tim forced out he had seen the signs he wasn't part of the Batfamily, he didn't belong with them. Things hadn't been the same since he left to find Bruce being lost in time. He still came when he was needed by more and more he had been staying in San Francisco with his team - no his family - at least with them he was wanted and welcomed. He knew that he could count on them to have his back, unlike the Bats.
"Why do you keep going back to them?" Kon's question rang through his head as it had been since he left to come back to Gotham. Tim hadn't been able to answer him, it wasn't because he hoped that they still might have some feelings of love for him, the kind that he still had for them. He still saw them as family.
"You will never be family, Drake." Damian's snarl, his face twisted in hate and his eyes shining with hate as he looks down at him like he is scum and beneath him. Nothing new there.
"Great, this isn't good." Tim knew that his wound was bad if he was starting to see Damian of all people.
"Aww come on brat you know replacement will always keep crawling back for scraps. He never knows when to quit." Jason chuckled as he leaned against the wall, his arms crossed over his chest as he looked down at Tim. "I should have finished you off at the Tower."
That had Tim flinching at that. While his relationship with Damian was still the same he had thought that he and Jason were making progress but given that this is what he was imagining it looked like he was wrong.
"Come on Timmy, you know that Dami didn't mean that. And really you shouldn't let him get to you after all you are the adult and he is just a child, he is still learning."
Tim flinched at Dick's voice, Jason and Damian's hatred towards him had nothing on the pain of hearing Dick defend Damian's actions. Dick and his relationship had never recovered after Tim tried to get him to believe him about Bruce and it wasn't just Dick giving Robin to Damian it was that he didn't talk to him first and worst of all Dick made him question his mind and turned the hero community against him. He was still trying to show that he hadn't been lost in his grief and he wasn't crazy. Still, those wounds were open and they still bleed and leave scars that might never heal.
Out of the shadows, Bruce loomed over Tim, "Tim, you have disappointed me. I should have never made you Robin or my son."
Like Dick's words, Tim flinched at the barbs that struck as he felt his eyes fill with tears. "You don't mean it."
A scoff came from the corner as Stephanie joined the others, "Tim, if we still cared about you why haven't we come for you yet? Why haven't we answered your beacon?"
The relationship between him and his ex was still rocky. Tim couldn't get over the fact that Steph not only faked her death but she couldn't believe him or support him when he had proof that Bruce was alive.
Glancing at his beacon Tim felt his heartbreak even more it was working they just weren't coming. He was worthless to them.
He was just their tool to be used and put away when he was no longer needed.
Tim felt any hope of still being part of their family shiver up and die.
'I walked through the desert with a sword wound, I can make it back to my Nest with a head wound.' Tim Drake was not a quitter even when the odds were against him.
"Well looks like we found a lost kitten."
Even though his head was in a daze Tim recognized and felt safe with the three figures that appeared before him. Safe enough that he could pass out.
"Don't worry Tim we will take care of you."
+*****+
Looking at the sleeping bird on the bed Selina felt a surge of protection and anger fill her as she watched Pamela and Harley take care of Tim's wounds, she knew that Bruce had been too stubborn and let the third Robin drift too far away from the nest. Looking down at the blood-covered flashing signal beacon in her hands her eyes harden into diamonds that she likes to steal. 'Oh yes, Bruce we will be having words. That is if you ever noticed that you have lost Tim.' She would give Bruce and the rest of the Bats till tomorrow to come looking for Tim before the Sirens took matters into their own hands.

Batfam During Quarantine: Retirement
Dick pulls up in front of the apartment that Barbara and her family lives in. He takes out his boom box and sets in a cassette tape. He sets the volume to the maximum setting. He holds the boom box over his head as Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes” starts playing.
Dick: BABS!!!!
He waits out there for a few minutes until she opens up the window and leans out of it.
Barbara: You Dick!
The song ends and starts playing “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” from Aerosmith.
Dick: BABS! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! PLEASE TALK TO ME!
Neighbor 1: GO HOME!
Dick: I’M DOING THIS FOR LOVE!
Neighbor 2: LOVE IS DEAD YOU SCHMUCK!
Dick: YOU’RE HEART IS DEAD!
Neighbor 3: SHUT THE FUCK UP KID!
Jim Gordon: DICK, IT IS 5 AM! GO THE FUCK HOME!
Dick: FINE!
The next night
Dick walks up to the door to the Gordon family’s apartment. He knocks on the door and Jim opens the door.
Dick: Hey Jim, I was sorta expecting Babs to open the door.
Jim: *looks at the cards in Dick’s hands* Just take a hint kid. You’re making this harder than it needs to be.
Dick: I’m persistent, it’s part of my charm.
Jim: Whatever. *shuts the door*
A minute late Barbara opens the door.
Dick: *holding the cards*
Barbara: They’re facing you.
Dick: *looks down and flips the cards around* “Babs, I know I messed things up by *flips the card* not telling you Helena was staying at the *flips the card* mansion. I want you to know that you are *flips the card*
Barbara: *shuts the door on Dick*
Dick: I still have twenty-something cards left. At least finish reading them.
Two days later at the grocery store
Barbara is walking down the aisle looking for food. The music playing over the speakers as a voice replaces the music.
Dick: You’re just to good to be true. Can’t take my eyes off of you. You'd be like Heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. 
Barbara starts looking around the store for Dick and sees him leaning against a wall with one of the phones.
Dick: *notices Barbara and points to hear and then makes a heart with his hands* At long last, love has arrived. And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you. *plays the instrumental part on his phone*
A store employee now spots Dick and heads towards him.
Dick: I love you, baby. And if it's quite alright. *struggles to keep possession of the phone* Get away, you’ll sing next. I need you baby *still fighting for the phone* To warm the lonely night. *starts climbing between the wall and the refrigerated section* I love you, baby. Trust in me when I say.
Barbara starts walking away embarrassed.
Dick: Oh, pretty baby, wait Babs, where you going? Babs? Babs? BAAABBS! LET ME ME LOVE YOUUUUU!
Daily Briefing
Dick: Okay, while things are a bit peaceful now, they’re not going to stay that way forever. Let’s try to plan ahead now and see if we can recruit any former members of Batman Inc. Tim, Steph, and Duke, you guys need to try and convince Luke to come out of retirement. Kate and Babs you go try and convince Bette to join us in Gotham.
Jason: What are the rest of us doing?
Dick: Selina, Jason, Harper, Cass, and Damian will patrol and hand out mask later today....
Harper: Cool, glad I can finally do something!
Jason: Got it!
Dick: And I will be sulking in my room!
Damian: Try again, Grayson.
Dick: I will be on patrol and handing out mask as Nightwing! Julia will be on monitor duty and Helena, tonight you’ll be on sanitation duty.
Helena: *sexually* Whatever you say.
Selina: Oh god!
Duke: Please stop!
Tim: There is a child present!
Jason: *Laughs hysterically* Am I the only one who still thinks this is funny?
Stephanie: Apparently so!
Dick: Alright, let’s get moving.
Tim, Duke, Stephanie, and Luke
Tim: Damn, it’s nice to finally be out of the mansion!
Duke: We were on patrol almost every night.
Tim: Yeah, but as Red Robin, not Tim Drake.
Stephanie: I mean, I guess that’s true.
Tim: *knocks on the door* 
Luke: *opens the door* Hey guys, it’s been a while!
Tim: Hey Luke, how have you been!
Luke: Not bad, Tim! What about you guys?
Tim: Could be better!
Stephanie: Not bad!
Duke: Send help!
Luke: Their dysfunction has gotten to you I’m assuming?
Duke: Maybe.
Tim and Stephanie: We’re not dysfunctional!!!
Luke: Relax! I’m talking about the others.
Tim: Kay, coolcoolcool.
Stephanie: Yeah, the others are pretty dysfunctional.
Luke: Anyways, come on in guys. Take a seat in the living room.
All three walk in and sit in the living room.
Tim: Okay I’m going to cut straight to the point, things aren’t going to be so peaceful for so long. It’s only a matter of time until the Joker pops up with a futuristic Batsuit or some dude comes in with a plan to destroy Batman in multiple ways.
Luke: I’m not coming out of retirement, Tim.
Stephanie: Why not?
Luke: Because I can’t stand to go back being some vigilante trying to save the city. I mean don’t you guys get tired of feeling like the weight of this city is pressing down on you every time you put on that mask.
Tim: Yeah, but I mean it’s not that bad.
Luke: When was the last time you slept.
Tim: Like 6 hours. Plus 2 days.
Luke: That’s my point! This is a thankless job that you guys work your ass off for.
Duke: Yeah coming here may have been a mistake. Let’s go guys, Luke’s not coming back.
Stephanie: Why not stay here Duke. I mean, Luke is right. We risk our lives to save some fucks who don’t give two shits whether we live or die. Sure they’d be sad if we did, but they would only be sad because that would mean they’d have to actually defend themselves!
Tim: Yeah, that is a great point!
Stephanie: Woooo let’s get hammered, this is my retirement party fuckers!
Luke: You’re not drinking alcohol! You’re under age!
Stephanie: Whatever! *stands up and walks out the door*
Duke: Tim, let’s go!
Tim: Yeah, I mean it’s probably about time I retired too!
Duke: Damn it!
Damian and Jon
Damian sets up a zoom call with Jon
Damian: Hey, Kent.
Jon: Hey, Wayne.
Damian: Why must you mock me?
Jon: Why must you mock me?
Damian: Goodbye!
Jon: No, wait, I want attention!!!!
Damian: Works like a charm. How’s it going over there?
Jon: Not bad, it’s super boring. I wish I had 50 people staying at my place.
Damian: No you don’t! It is awful. I want to punch Drake constantly, Grayson is always trying to hand out hugs, Todd tried to kill me!
Jon: The hugs don’t sound....
Damian: Row turned my knife into an electric razor...
Jon: How...
Damian: Kyle keeps trying to bond with me, Cain tried to stab me because I stole a waffle from her, Bertinelli and her lust for Grayson is annoying! Honestly, Pennyworth and Thomas are the only ones who haven’t managed to piss me off.
Jon: You know what, I take back what I said earlier.
Damian: Wise choice.
Jon: Hey, remember the time your dad almost adopted me?
Jason: *talking in the hallway*
Damian: That was funny. Hey I got to go, I’m about to go on patrol.
Jon: During the day, I thought you guys were nocturnal.
Damian: No, we are not. We’ll talk later.
Jon: See ya!
Damian: Bye. *rushes to the door to see if he could hear Jason*
Jason: I’ll see you there. *walks off*
Damian: *walks out of his room and sees Selina* 
Selina: Hey Dami, you ready to go on patrol?
Damian: Actually, we have a change in plans.
Nightwing
Nightwing: *sees a kid walking by without a mask, he squats down and waves* Hey what’s up little dude!
Little kid: *runs away from parents and hugs Nightwing*
Parent: Hey! Sorry, we’re still trying to get him to understand what social distancing is.
Nightwing: It’s okay, he’s young, he’ll eventually get the idea. I see that someone lost their mask though! Do you like super heroes kiddo!
Little kid: *nods excitedly* Batgirl is my favorite!
Nightwing: Really! Batgirl is my favorite, too! Hey, let’s get you another mask buddy! *reaches into the box of mask he has and hands a Batgirl mask to the parent to put on the kid’s face*
Parent: Thank you so much! *puts the mask on the little kids face*
Nightwing: No problem! Stay safe! *waits a bit longer and puts in an earbud*
Nightwing: *sees another guy not wearing a mask* Hey, how about we wear a mask buddy!
Guy: Piss off!
Nightwing: Come on. Let’s try to think about everyone else.
Guy: Who cares! If I get the virus I won’t die! It’s only the old people who are dying! 
Nightwing: Okay, please tell me your joking.
Guy: I mean, you don’t really see much other people dying.
Nightwing: If you pay attention to the statistics you would see that there are other people who are 20, 30, 40 years old and dying from this virus! Can you just put the mask on?
Guy: Hell no, it’s uncomfortable for me!
Nightwing: UNCOMFORTABLE FOR YOU! I HAVE TO WEAR ONE FOR LEGIT MOST OF THE DAY. OUR CITIES FIRST RESPONDERS MUST WEAR ONE TO DO THEIR DAMN JOBS. NO ONE, ESPECIALLY ME OR ANY NURSE, FIREMAN, POLICE OFFICER, ET CETERA, CARES IF IT BOTHERS YOU! PUT ON THE DAMN MASK!!!
Guy: Damn. *starts walking away*
Nightwing: *grabs cologne* Sir, don’t make me do this.
Guy: Do what? Bit......
Nightwing: *sprays cologne all over the guys face*
Guy: pffft. pfffffftt. 
Nightwing: I bet you’d like a mask now!
Guy: YOU FUCKING SON OF A
Nightwing: *spays the cologne at his face again* Hey! *throws a mask at the guy* No profanity! There’s kids around. Put on the mask, too. 
Guy: *puts the mask on reluctantly and walks away* Stupid vigilante in this stupid damn city. Hate this damn place.
Nightwing: *watches him walk away for a bit* Never thought I’d take a page out of Jay’s book.
Julia: Nightwing, need you over in Gotham Heights. There’s a.... *clears throat*..... situation over there. I’m sending you the coordinates now.
Nightwing: On my way! *takes off firing the grappling hook into the side of a building as he takes off*
Jason
Jason walks towards the house, checking his surroundings to see if any of his “family” members followed him. Fortunate for him, Dick is preoccupied with his thoughts and Damian and Selina left after he did.
He opens the door and walks inside of his safe house. He then sits down, takes off his helmet, sets it down on the table, and turns on the tv to watch Supernatural. Not long after Roy walks downstairs.
Roy: What’s up Jaybird?
Jason: Not much Roy.
Roy then sits down on the couch next to him to watch with him.
Roy: Is it just me or would Jensen Ackles be the perfect person to play you if there was to ever be a movie about you?
Jason: I KNOW, RIGHT!!!! Hey do you want to order some pizza?
Roy: Sure!
Roy begins to pull out his phone when they hear a knock at the door.
Jason: Hide! 
Roy: Hey it’s my safe house, too!
Jason: It’s my city! Hide!
Roy begins to hide as Jason looks outside the door to see Damian and Selina outside the door. 
Jason: *opens the door* Hey Catwoman, Robin! What are you guys doing here?
Damian: More importantly, what are you doing here?
Jason: Following up on a lead. I saw a very shady guy leave here so I’m looking for some evidence.
Selina: Are those your guns on the counter? And your helmet and phone on the table?
Jason: No.
Damian: Then where’s your guns?
Jason: Okay, I hate to admit it, but I came across a dog and decided to pet it, then it bit the barrel of both guns and ran off.
Selina: Mmmmhhhmmmm and why don’t I believe you?
Jason: Because everyone but Duke has trust issues.
Damian: Give it up, Todd.
Jason: Give what up?
Damian: *walks over to the closet and opens the door*
Roy: Woah, how the hell did I get here!
Jason: *shakes his head*
Tim, Duke, Stephanie, and Luke
Duke: Dude, you broke Tim and Steph.
Luke: No I didn’t!
Duke: Really because we came here to try and convince you to be Batwing again and yet you somehow got them both to decide to retire!
Luke: So, they should! They deserve it. No kid should have to deal with that kind of stress!
Duke: Dude, we live in Gotham freaking City. Stress is literally stuff we learn in 6th grade because our parents need us to get jobs!
Luke: You had to get a job in 6th grade?
Duke: Oh right, sorry I forgot you all are rich! Hey, where’s Steph and Tim?
Luke: Outside somewhere.
Duke: DUDE!!!! WE HAVE TO FIND THEM!!!!!!
Luke: They’ll be fine!
Duke: Whatever. *walks towards the door* If you change your mind, you know where to call. *he walks out the door*
____
Tim: *grabs a helium tank* Hey Steph!
Stephanie: *turns around*
Tim: *pulls down the mask and inhales the helium* I am vengeance, I am the night, I am BATMAN!
Stephanie: O-M-G!!! That is amazing!
Jason, Roy, Damian, and Selina
Selina: So again, Jason, what are you doing here?
Jason: Trying to get away from you people! Do you know how often I want to shoot Dick alone from all of the stupid stuff he does! 
Damian: Yes!
Jason: You’re no better. You can not adopt stray animals every week!
Damian: They can catch the virus, too! They need a home!
Jason: They have one! In the wild somewhere!
Selina: What’s your point?
Jason: I needed a place to escape you idiots at the mansion. There’s only so much I can take before I break B’s no killing rule.
Damian: Then why is Harper here?
Roy: Jaybird has been my emotional support person since Kori left Earth for Tamaran.
Selina: I can see that.
Damian: Is this where you’ve been every single patrol?
Jason: Not every one. Only when I get sick of you all. 
Selina: Everyday!!!!
Roy: *laughs uncontrollably*
Jason: Not everyday!!! Look, this is why I need this place, because I can’t stand you fuckers!!! Get out of my house!
Damian: How did you even pay for this place?
Jason: I USED TO KILL PEOPLE FOR A LIVING!!!!
Selina: Jason, your not supposed to even be here. We need to leave now.
Jason: Yes you fucking should!
Selina: I meant all of us!
Jason: Good luck with that! You’ll have to drag me out.
Damian: Just watch us do it!
Roy: This is getting a bit personal, I’m gunna grab my bow and leave.
Jason: Stay Roy!
Roy: Okay, I’ll stay!
Selina: How are we so awful? What is it that we do that bothers you so much?
Jason: I don’t want to talk about it!
Selina: What is it?
Jason: You guys make me want to actually be a part of the family! You guys care for me, and make fun of me *starts crying* and make me laugh, and it’s not fucking fair!
Selina: Jason..... I’m.... I’m sorry. Why are you crying?
Jason: Because this shit has always been unfamiliar to me! Family has always been fucked up for me before Bruce. When he took me in I didn’t know how to feel because at that point my life was filled with rage, sadness, and confusion. *sits down on the couch* Then came in Dick, who at first made me feel at home with how much he hated the fact that I replaced him, until a few months go by for him to accept me as a brother he never had. Then I fuckin’ died!
Selina: *sits down next to Jason* It’s okay if you want some time away from us, I understand now that this is new. We won’t ever stop loving you Jason. If you ever need a break from us then I’ll cover for you, just don’t be out for too long.
Jason: Thanks Selina.
Roy: *starts humming Love Is A Battlefield*
Selina: Are you humming Love Is A Battlefield?
Jason: He is so humming Pat Benatar right now.
Roy: No, you’re all just hearing things.
Damian: Who’s Pat Benatar?
Jason: Okay, GET OUT!!!!
Selina: *rushes themselves out the door* Let’s go Dami, we’ve overstayed our welcome!
Damian: But my phone!
Roy and Jason: GET OUT!
Tim and Stephanie
Stephanie: *dancing in a strangers house* Woooo!!!
Tim: *break dancing to “Dirrty” in the middle of a dance circle*
Stephanie: *nudges the person next to her* I’m friends with that guy!
Stranger: Nice!
Stephanie: I know right!
Tim: *steps out of the dance circle* Hey!
Stephanie: How many Red Bulls did you have?
Tim: How many legs does a wolf-tigark have.
Stephanie: What!
Tim: I’m super fucked up!
Stephanie: Same! Wanna have sex?
Tim: Sure!
Duke, Cassandra, and Harper
Duke: Hey, Harper! Do you remember that time you were totally surrounded by the Riddler’s henchmen and I swooped in and saved you, and you were like “Thanks dude! You’re the best! I totally owe you one!”
Harper: Yes, I remember part of that being true!
Duke: Well, I need you to return that favor and you can not tell any of the others. I lost Tim and Stephanie and need help finding them.
Harper: What the hell Duke! How did this happen?
Duke: Well, Luke broke Tim and Steph, causing them to decide to retire, then they disappeared.
Harper: Okay, Orphan and I will be right there after we take down these two drug dealing pimps!
Duke: Thank you!
Harper: *hangs up the phone* Okay, let’s take care of this Orphan!
They both jump down landing a kick to their chest. Harper then grabbed her dudes arm and broke his wrist, finally stomping on his face, knocking the dude out. Cass walked towards her guy reaching down and throwing him against a wall, then kicking his back.
Nightwing
Nightwing: *arrives at the apartment door*
Boyfriend: YOU STUPID BITCH! WHY CAN’T YOU DO ANYTHING RIGHT! 
Girlfriend: *through tears* I’m sorry!
Boyfriend: *slaps the girlfriend* SHUT UP BITCH!
Nightwing: *knocks on the door*
Boyfriend: *opens door* Can I help you?
Nightwing: Yes hi. I was walking around the neighborhood and wanted to know if you wanted to donate to the charity of whoop-ass?
Boyfriend: Not interested. *tries to close the door*
Nightwing: *pushes the door open* Hold on, you need to hear the rest of my pitch! *kicks the boyfriend in the chest* 
Girlfriend: *still crying* NO! PLEASE STOP!
Nightwing: Wha-
Boyfriend: *tries to throws a few punch at Nightwing’s face*
Nightwing: *drops to the floor and goes for a flare, sweeping the boyfriend off his feet*
The sound of sirens is heard out side.
Nightwing: *temporarily distracted by the sirens*
Boyfriend: *gets up* YOU CALLED THE COPS! YOU UNGRATEFUL GOOD FOR NOTHING BITCH! *tries to punch his girlfriend*
Nightwing: *catches his fist* Not gunna happen. *tosses the boyfriend against the wall and has him put his hands over his head*
Police Officer: G-C-P-D! GET YOUR..... Oh, Nightwing? How random seeing one of you guys here. Like always. *goes in to arrest the boyfriend*
Nightwing: *kneels down to where the girlfriend is sitting and takes note of the cuts and marks on her arms* Are you okay?
Girlfriend: I-*sob* I don’t *sob* know what *sob* I did *sob* wrong?
Nightwing: You did nothing wrong. Everything will be okay. Did he hit you?
Girlfriend: *nods her head yes*
Nightwing: Where did he hit you?
Girlfriend: *looks up to reveal a black eye and cuts on her face* My *sob* face, arms *sob*, stomach. *buries her head in her arms and starts to cry even harder*
Nightwing: Hey, it’s going to be okay. It’s all going to be okay. 
Nightwing tries the best he can to comfort the girl before the EMT arrived. After that he stuck around for a bit to give a statement of what happened when he arrived and to make sure everything was fine before he left.
Duke, Stephanie, Tim, Harper, and Cassandra
Stephanie: *wakes up* Ugh. My head! *she looks over at Tim and smiles as she gets out of the bed*
Tim: *starts to wake* Ow! *sees Stephanie* Hey!
Stephanie: Hey! 
Tim: *sits up on the bed*
Stephanie: Look about what happened, can we agree it was a drunk mistake.
Tim: Yeah! *rubs the back of his head and stands up close to Stephanie* I’m sorry, I can’t pretend! *he pulls her in and kisses her* I really like you!
Stephanie: I like you, too.
Tim: Wanna crawl back under the covers again for a bit?
Stephanie: Absolutely!
____
Desk Clerk: Thank you, hope you enjoyed your stay!
Tim: We certainly did, thank you! *both Stephanie and Tim walk out the door and see Duke, Cassandra, and Harper* 
Stephanie: Hey, you found us!
Duke: Get in the car!
Harper: Spent most of the night looking for you suckers until we saw that Tim used his credit card to purchase a hotel room there! 
Tim: We’re sorry you had to go searching for us!
Duke: Also, if you are even still thinking about retiring, you’re going to have to tell Bruce yourself.
Stephanie: We’re not retiring. We probably just thought it was a good idea because we were both sleep deprived.
Duke: Good, because I didn’t want to see Bruce lose his shit!
Dick and Julia/Dick and Jason
Back at the Batcave
Julia: How did it go?
Dick: Rough. That building was well into Harper’s sector though, why did you have me take care of it?
Julia: I think you know why.
Dick: *thinks for a moment* Because of the way I’ve been reacting to my breakup with Bab’s.
Julia: If you stopped thinking of how to win her back for one second, you would see that she is most likely suffering as much as you are. 
Dick: I understand. I’m going to head upstairs. Don’t stay down here much longer, that’s an order.
Julia: Are you still entitled to give orders?
Dick: I still get to wear the cowl, don’t I?
Julia: Fair enough.
Dick quickly showers and heads upstairs.
Jason: Hey, Dickwad. Over here.
Dick: Sup, Jay?
Jason: Follow me.
Jason leads Dick to the parking garage and into one of Bruce’s cars and drives to the safe house.
Jason: Welcome, to the safe house. I heard you had a rough day so I thought it would be worth it to take you here. Wayne house free zone so feel free to cry, let out your feeling, whatever you need to do to process this. I’ll wait in the car.
Dick: *crying* Jay.
Jason: Yeah.
Dick: *hugs Jason* Thank you!
Jason: No problem. If you tell Bruce, I will end you though.
Dick: Got it!
While I try to make these stories for the most part humorous and entertaining, domestic violence is a very serious topic. Since quarantine, domestic violence rates have gone up. If you or some one you know is in an abusive relationship or has found themselves in one since quarantine began, don’t hesitate to call the Domestic Violence Support hotline at 1 (800) 799 7233. You can also go to thehotline.org to contact them.
If someone you know has just left an abusive relationship (boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife, parent/child) remember to be there for them. Allow them to talk but don’t force them too if they don’t want to. Make sure not to bash the guilty party and respond about them neutrally. Most of all, make sure to let them know that they are still loved, and that they are still the same person, even if they feel that they are not.
I will be reblogging this message on my blog. I ask you to please share and reblog as much as you can.

New prompt idea! Following the defeat of Hawkmoth, Jason is terrified of the idea of Bruce adopting the sunshine child that is Adrien (that and all the puns that the boy makes... Adrien can't meet Dick!!!). He, alongside Damian, decide to try to get Selina to adopt a new cat instead. Unfortunately for everyone (except Adrien), Jon tags along. AdriJon for the ship and maybe Marinette being having a sibling relationship with the Wayne children?
I’m back to writing and when I saw this prompt, I was so excited. If it hasn’t been hinted at enough in some of my pieces, I adore AdriJon. I hope you like it! @elements1999
Stupid Lovestruck Jon
As Gabriel Agreste was drug from his front gates, the crowds surrounding the manor erupted in yet another round of cheers. Even with the hero’s help, the police had trouble keeping them back. Jason and Damian stood on the edge, both wearing matching grim expressions under their hoods and glasses.
“You know what this means D?”
Damian nodded solemnly, the scowl on his face deepening as Gabriel disappeared from their view.
“Father mustn't meet Agreste until we have found a suitable host family for him.”
The idea of Dick and Adrien bonding over stupid puns and forcing Jason and Damian to join in on family game nights was enough to send shivers down the two Wayne’s backs. There was no question about it, Adrien could not be allowed to be adopted.
“What do you think Selina would say if we brought her a kit?”
Damian shifted his gaze to Jason’s face, doing his best to hide his shock that Jason could come up with a coherent idea.
“I believe she would enjoy Plagg very much, Adrien though? Well, that would take some getting used to. How do you propose we get the two to meet?”
Jason’s face darkened quickly.
“It’ll be risky, but we invite them to America. After all, he’s going to need an escape from the media.”
“Perhaps Metropolis?”
The boys nodded as if that was the most logical sentence before both heads snapped up, their eyes widening at the sight of the petite hero that had landed between them. Marinette threw her arms around the boys’ shoulders, dragging them down to her own height.
“There is only room for so much sunshine at the Wayne estate. Dick has monopolized all of it and for the sake of not only you but myself as well, Adrien needs a more stable parental figure than Bruce Wayne. Not that my first choice would be Selena, but I know that she has a soft spot for orphans, no matter what she says.”
Both boys tried to wrestle their way out of her grasp, but it was nearly impossible with Tikki to help her.
“Here’s how it will go. I will go to help the police finalize anything they need for this arrest and you will trail Chat Noir until he decided to transform back. I want to be there as well, but unfortunately, the police aren’t exactly understanding when it comes to personal relationships.”
With a nod, the sound of two smacks echoed as she disappeared into the sky, the only trace of her being matching red spots on both of the Wayne’s necks.
“I really despise when she does that, no matter how much I want to be impressed.”
Jason chuckled as he nudged Damian forward, both of them slipping into the nearest building to change before anyone from the media could catch sight of the American’s on the scene of what would become known as the greatest arrest in Paris’ history.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“You know, I caught the trail of you following me a couple of blocks back. You don’t have to stay hidden.”
Damian let out a small string of curses as he stepped out from behind the chimney and into view of the black cat.
“I hate magic.”
Adrien chuckled as he waited for Jason to step out from the other side, both boys looking a little sheepish that they had been caught.
“Did Marinette ask you to follow me? Cause that sounds like something she would do. Really, I’m fine guys. Once we started the investigation, so much more began to make sense. He wanted to disguise the fact that he was selfish, wanting just my mother for himself, no matter the consequence. Even if it meant sacrificing me..”
Damian swallowed awkwardly as he glanced between Jason and Adrien. Thanks to Dick’s persistent pestering, he had gotten slightly better at reading emotions and watching his tongue, but this was uncharted territory and as much as he hated to admit it, he had no idea what to do.
Adrien let out a shaky laugh as he stood, brushing off the imaginary dust from his suit.
“Whatever, so what is Maribug’s master plan for avoiding the press? I know she sent you here to collect me for that very reason, so what could it be?”
Jason cleared his throat as he stepped forward, his smile completely see-through as the worry shined.
“Well, how would you feel about a trip overseas? Metropolis perhaps? You’re a huge Superman fanboy, aren’t you? Well, Dami here is besties with his son and we thought it would be a grand idea for you to have a distraction. What do you say?”
Damian frowned at Jason’s choice of wording. Besties felt a little strong for the relationship that he held with Jon, perhaps tolerable coworkers was better suited?
“Okay.”
Both boys tried to hide their surprised faces. They knew he was desperate for an escape, but his response was still quick for their liking. Honestly, they thought it was going to take a bit more convincing than that.
“Let Marinette know that I’ll be on her balcony whenever she finishes up. I’m sure she has a long night ahead of her and will want to talk to me when she can and guys?” Both boys raised their eyebrows, curiosity, and worry nitpicking their expressions. “Thanks for coming to see me.”
And with that, he leaped off the roof leaving the batbrothers to wonder if Metropolis would be the best idea for the man who effectively was orphaned in one day.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“Dami!”
Before he even had a chance to throw his hands up in defense, Jon had already tackled him in a bone-crushing hug much to his annoyance.
“I told you not to call me by that stupid nickname anymore Kent.”
With much effort, Damian shoved Jon off and into Marinette’s waiting arms.
“Aw, but Dami it’s so cute.” The muffled laughter coming from behind him was not helping.
Damian cut his eyes to where Jason and Adrien stood, both chuckling to themselves. He knew it was Jason’s idea to call up Jon to make this impromptu trip more believable for his father, but when breaking it down, Damian wasn’t completely sure that this option was much better than taking Adrien straight to Dick’s side.
“Anyways, I know I’m just the cover story so that you can meet up with Selina and all that, but do you have time to spare? I’d love to show Mari and Adrien around Metropolis! That’s your name, right? Adrien? Mari used to have so many cutouts of you-”
A smack echoed through the airport lobby as Jon found himself in a headlock courtesy of one petite heroine.
“Oh, you wanna bring that up now Jon? I don’t suppose you remember asking for a couple of my magazines for yourself huh?”
There was an undeniable shade of red emitting from under Marinette’s arm, one all three boys noted. A sputtering Jon finally managed to free himself, the red more visible as he gently pushed Marinette away.
“Hey it’s okay, it’s the cost of being a celebrity right?” Adrien reached out, his hand gently brushing Jon’s arm.
A sudden realization hit Damian as he watched his friend jump nearly 100 feet into the air, the red seemingly brighter than before. As Jon linked arms with Marinette, hurriedly leading them out of the airport, Adrien gently coaxing the two to behave, Damian gripped Jason’s jacket pulling the two of them to a stop.
“What do you want brat? We’re gonna get left behind-” With one killer glare, Jason slowly quieted, curiosity seeping into his expression.
“Jason, is uh- does Jonathon- does he see guys as viable mates?”
There was a slight pause and for a moment, Damian felt a bit relieved that perhaps he was not the only one to fail to notice such a thing about the Kent boy. But the moment ended abruptly as Jason erupted in laughter, drawing the attention from some passing by.
“What is it you buffoon? People are staring at us, silence yourself, and answer me.”
“Me buffoon? No, no, no” Jason’s laughter slowly ceased, but the shit-eating grin that replaced it did nothing to ease Damian’s nerves. “You see, you are the only idiot here. What is Jon? An animal? His mating preference?”
Damian felt his face heating up as his grip tightened on Jason’s jacket, intent on tearing a small hole in his precious belonging.
“Now Damian, I know you are dense, but Jon has always talked about guys with you. Did you just think they were all besties? That your third-wheeling on his dates where they gave each other like pecks on the cheek or held hands was just because you hate physical contact and his other friends didn’t mind it?”
The more Jason talked, the redder Damian felt his face becoming. Sure he had noticed before, but it never felt like it was something that mattered much. Plus, it wasn’t like Jon had mentioned anything to him about coming along on his supposed dates. How was he supposed to know?
Letting go of Jason’s jacket, Damian huffed after his friends, ignoring his brother’s taunting calls. There was only one thought that was still left on his mind.
If Jon had a crush on Adrien Agreste, this could ruin the whole plan.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
He was right.
What was implied to be a one day tour ended with them staying a week in Metropolis. And the worst part? Damian was completely powerless to do anything about it.
“Hey enfant démon, you seen my partner or yours for that matter?”
Damian scowled at Marinette as she leaned against his doorframe, her expression as exasperated as he felt.
“I told you to quit calling me that. Just because it’s in French doesn’t make it better heathen.”
Marinette stuck her tongue out at him, remaining firm in her spot as she waited for her answer. With a great sigh, Damian shook his head, glancing from his book to out the hotel window.
“They snuck out sometime early this morning while I was on my run. Jason was supposed to be keeping an eye on them.”
A slight protest echoed through the suite as Marinette shook her head.
“Do you think we’ll ever get Adrien to meet Selina at this rate? I know he needed this break, but I hadn’t expected to be gone this long. I just turned 17, if it wasn’t for Jason here being a technical adult, my parents would have never let me come. I’m honestly surprised that they haven’t shown up to drag me to Paris.”
Damian nodded slightly, his thoughts straying to the idea of an angry Sabine showing up at their hotel. The thought alone was enough to send a shiver down his spine. He opened his mouth, unsure how to respond when he caught the sound of a set of familiar giggles outside the suites’ door.
“We’re home! Marinette! You won’t believe how awesome the sunrise in Metropolis is when you’re so high up. Jon is awesome!”
The boy tried his best to hide his blush as he gently swatted Adrien’s shoulder, earning a giggle from the blonde.
“Okay lovebirds, how about you stop running off without the rest of us? At least tell us where you’re going, is that too much to ask?”
A simultaneous ‘yes mom’ came from the duo as they ducked out of Marinette’s reach, racing down the hallway.
“That’s it, I’m calling Selena right now. Damian, Jason, between the two of you, figure out a way to keep our rebellious teens in check. It shouldn’t take longer than thirty minutes for her to arrive, I’m sure the two of you can manage.”
Jason peeked his head into Damian’s room, his eyebrows raised matching how Damian felt. Did she have any idea how hard it was to hold down a Kryptonian without using Kryptonite? If only she hadn’t banned Damian from bringing it to Metropolis.
With a small huff of annoyance, Damian swung his legs off his bed, placing his book back on the nightstand carefully. This was going to be the longest thirty minutes of his life.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“Dammit children, can’t you sit still for one minute!” Jason gripped both boy's collars as he tossed them back onto the couch that they had escaped from.
“Aw, c’mon Jason. I thought you were the fun Wayne! I just want to show Adrien a good time before he had to leave.”
Damian wasn’t sure how much more Jason could take. The vein on his forehead looked like it was about to burst from him resisting beating the two to a pulp. It was honestly a bit satisfying to look at.
“Can you at least explain why we’re on house arrest? The day has just started and we’re already wasting it.”
“I told you already Agreste, Marinette wants you to meet a friend of hers that lives nearby. We can’t have you skipping out before she gets here.”
Adrien sighed dramatically before falling into Jon’s shoulder.
“But waiting is boring!”
Damian felt his nose twitch while staring at the blonde. Honestly, he didn’t know how Marinette was able to keep up with this child-like energy for all the years she had. He was exhausted after a mere thirty minutes.
The sound of the doorknob rattling caught the attention of the four as a collective sigh of relief echoed through the room.
“Well hello there my kittens, long time no see.” Within a split second, Selina was already on top of Damian, pulling him into the biggest hug she could manage.
“Release me you heathen, I do not like being touched!”
Selina giggled as she tightened her hug before releasing him, allowing him to drop to the floor.
“Oh, I know. I enjoy giving you a hard time the most Damiboo.”
Damian cringed at the nickname as he allowed Marinette to help him back to his feet. While Selina was unbearable, he honestly had to applaud Jason for his thought. If anyone could reign in the energy Adrien had, it would be her.
“You must be Adrien. I’m Selina Kyle, so very nice to meet you.”
Adrien swallowed hard as he tentatively reached out his hand to shake hers. No one could blame him, the look on Selina’s face was terrifying as if she was admiring a jewel before shattering it into pieces.
“Now let’s cut to the chase. Do you want to live with me? You obviously need a parent figure in your life, but you also only have a year left until you can be on your own. I know it’s a big change from Paris, but between Zeta tubes and that little horse your friend Marinette carries, you’ll never be too far.”
Damian bit his lip hard, trying not to yell at Selina for her brashness. She was supposed to be gentle and coaxing. Get him to like her, spend the day with him, and then suggest it. Adrien looked as white as a ghost, as expected when someone you’ve only heard stories about shows up in your hotel room with adoption papers.
“Uhm, I don’t really want a guardian. My aunt said she would rent me an apartment wherever I wanted and when the time came for my 18th birthday, she’d sign it over to me-”
Adrien was cut off as Selina placed a finger over his lips, shocking him into silence.
“Honey, I can do that for you. Don’t rely on family who will want to steal your father’s fortune. However, I will have a few conditions.”
Adrien nodded slowly, his eyes glancing around frantically as if asking for help.
“First, you must visit Wayne Manor once a week for a family dinner, I refuse to let you off the hook with no real resemblance of a family. Second, you must rent here in Metropolis where you already have a good person looking out for you. And third, you must force Damian and Jason to participate in these once a week dinners.”
Jason and Damian shouted frantically for him to decline, their plans falling to pieces before them. They only quieted down after Marinette reached back giving them matching red bumps on their foreheads.
“What do you say, sweetie? I can tell you and Jon are already close and I think this would be best for everyone. You had already finished your studies in France so you can take this year to decide what you want to do next in life and I think between the Kents and us, we can help you with that.”
It took less than a minute for Adrien to agree and for Damian and Jason to be bested by two black cats. Selina insisted on lunch to celebrate, dragging Adrien and Jon with her and out the door leaving the three exhausted crusaders behind.
“Well, technically Bruce won’t be the one adopting him.” Marinette shrugged before plopping on the couch, the other two following suit.
“Yeah, but like, we went through all this trouble to stop Dick and Adrien from meeting, and now we will be having weekly dinners with them. Marinette, you are officially forced into this agreement as well.” Jason poked at her side, a small sigh of defeat escaping from his lips.
“Stupid lovestruck Jon.” Marinette and Jason turned their attention to where Damian sat, his arms crossed in annoyance. “I bet if they hadn’t had this week to hang out, Selina wouldn’t have picked up on their stupid crushes. Why do you women always feel the need to meddle?”
The air was silent for a moment before laughter erupted from Damian’s right side. Shaking his head, he couldn’t help the small giggle that came from his own mouth. Stupid Jon, making him attend family dinners with the likes of Dick and Adrien. He was happy for him, not to be confused with the utter annoyance he felt for him at the moment as well.
As they sat there joking about their shared fate and pondering how it could’ve gone differently, one thought was constant across all three of their minds:
Who could’ve planned for stupid lovestruck Jon?

How I Picture a Batfam Age Reversal
I’m going to write this as a fic (And I want to go on into a young justice world where dick forms the team and his siblings are protective) but here is the outline in bullet points in case anyone is interested. Please note this is VERY first draft.
Ages (At end) & Order:
Damian- 24
Duke- 21
Stephanie- 20
Tim- 21
Cassandra- 19
Jason- 19
Barbara- 15
Dick- 13
Damian is Ten when he is sent to live w/ his father. Bruce is 30.
They don’t really work well together at first. But Selina, Alfred, and Clark somehow get it through Bruce’s thick skull that he has to care for this child.
Damian keeps sneaking out on patrol, against B’s wishes. Eventually, he let’s Damian join and tells him to choose a name (Not what we meant, Bruce!)
Damian wants to go for something like Shadow, or Demon, but Bruce puts his foot down. He says that Damian shouldn’t try to be darkness.
Damian is pouting in the gardens when he finds a wounded robin. It’s wing is broken. He demands that the animal should be taken to a shelter, and carries it in his hand the whole way there.
The bird makes it, and Damian demands to be called Robin. He designs his suit, going slightly more colorful. “I might be called Robin, but I am NOT wearing brown, Pennyworth.”
Bruce introduces him to Superboy (Jon, note: less age dif) and the pair are close friends.
He is Robin for a little over seven years before he begins to fight with Bruce about being allowed to patrol alone, and being his own hero. (basically what happened w/ Dick).
Damian leaves Gotham, opting to claim Bludhaven. Jon joins him. He suggests they call each other Nightwing and Flamebird. Damian thinks it’s a bit childish, but he can’t say no to Jon. They’re costumes are here. (done by @hyperactive-lectiophile! Fantastic job!)
They eventually realize they’re in love w/ each other, all while trying to figure their lives  out. Damian briefly tries to join the police. He hates it. Eventually, he enrolls in BH college for a major in Art and a minor in business.
Later in Gotham, the We Are Robin/Robin War stuff happens. Long story short, Duke is adopted. 
Damian is angry to find out he has a new brother, goes to Gotham to yell at Bruce, but then meets Duke. They bond, and are close siblings. Damian makes his father promise to not adopt any more strays.
Stephanie Brown wants to stop her Father, so she sews up a costume and goes out as Batgirl. Bruce is apprehensive at first, but his family basically yells at him to train the poor girl before she gets hurt.
He does, and after Steph meets Damian, who she absolutely adores (He loves her too. The way she pisses his father off is legendary), Stephanie decides she wants to be Robin. Batgirl was good for dealing with her father, but she wants to belong to this new family, and, w/ Damian’s blessing, she makes a new costume.
Unfortunately, after a while, Stephanie is killed by Black Mask (her death is faked, like in the comics, but the Fam doesn’t know)
Enter Tim Drake. Batman has been going crazy over grief, and not even Nightwing, Catwoman (this is SOOOO batcat, btw) or The Signal can calm him down. Tim steps right up, and demands to be robin.
Damian and Bruce fight over this. Surprisingly, Damian is the one who thinks Tim should be given a chance. He sees how his father has been acting. Damian knows that Tim must be brilliant to figure out their identities, and thinks that should count for something. Duke takes his side, knowing that it takes guts to talk to batman, and be willing to join him. Bruce, meanwhile, is a constant chant of “no more dead robins”. After a while, and lots of arguing, Tim takes his place as Robin. They redesign the suit, and he takes his place as robin.
It’s little while after this that Stephanie comes back. Tim offers Robin back, but Stephanie declines. They talk and grow closer. At one point they talk about Stephanie’s new moniker. She says she doesn’t want to be Batgirl either. She wants something new. Tim suggests Spoiler (Bad pun turned brilliant idea?).
Cassandra Cain arrives on the scene next. She saves the commissioner’s life (like No Man’s Land, minus No Man’s Land), and Stephanie immediately imprints on this tiny assassin child (So do the rest of the family, but Steph claims the fourteen-year old first. She and Bruce fight over custody.). She offers Cass Batgirl. Gotham gained a new vigilante, and Bruce Wayne adopted a new child. (Faster than the comics, I KNOW. But Cass deserves happiness)
Everyone loves their new sister, and everyone spoils her. Duke is the one to take her to a ballet the first time. She immediately begs to be put into lessons.
Somewhere in here Tim’s mom dies and his dad is in a coma. Bruce takes him in.
Eventually, Bruce decides to offer Tim Red Robin, hoping to avoid the strife he had with Damian. (Like in the comics, Bruce was going to give Jason Red Robin)
Tim is unsure of this, and puts off deciding. Then little Jason Peter Todd decides to jack the tires of the batmobile and is immediately taken in.
Everyone is captivated by the tiniest addition to their family, but it's also at this time that Jack Drake finds out about Robin and forces Tim to quit. Tim gives Jason his blessing to become Robin.
Everyone pitches in on helping train the newest Robin. Damian teaches the kid things he learned from the league (non-lethal things, since Damian loves this kid), Duke teaches him escrima fighting, Stephanie (Much to Bruce’s dismay) has a full seminar of the delicacies of glitter bomb making. Tim teaches the kid hacking, when he can get away from his dad. 
Unfortunately, when Jason has been Robin for almost a year, he is killed by the Joker.
The family is torn apart by greif. But this time around, Bruce has a much larger support system. All of them lean on each other.
The only time that Damian ever broke his no-kill rule while living with his father was to kill the Joker. He hunted and murdered the clown, sparing Harley. He had been friends with Quinzel since he was Robin, and knew how the Joker treated her. Harley became the batfam’s honorary aunt after this.
Bruce was too emotionally tired to fight with Damian over his actions, so no one said anything. Eventually, Bruce and Damian did argue. Damian refused to apologize,, though he did promise his father to never kill again. Their relationship was strained for a while, but they worked through it.
Less than a year later, Jack Drake dies, and Tim comes back onto the vigilante scene. He refuses to become Robin, however, choosing to take Bruce up on his offer and become Red Robin. He designs his own suit, and the world seems to slowly become normal. Or some semblance of it.
One night, the circus is in town and the whole family (except Alfred) is home. Duke, Tim, and Steph drag Bruce, Cass, and Damian to go see it.
It is on this night that Dick Grayson’s parents fall to their death. Dick is sent to live in juvi, meanwhile Bruce tries to adopt Dick. He succeeds, and the manor once again has a bright young child running through it’s halls.
Dick figures out the secret identities of his family and instantly demands to be allowed out. He wants to take down Zucko, and won’t settle for every single member hunting for him. Dick wants to take down his parent’s murdered himself. He tries to sneak out multiple times, but is always stopped.
Damian talks to Dick (They are extremely close) and explains the origins of Robin. He says that the mantle was born out of a want to distance himself from the revenge and violence of the league. Dick cries when he learns this and says that his own parents used to call him Robin. He suggests that the mantle is more than a personal need. Robin is Family.
Damian almost immediately demands that Dick be trained and help catch Zucko. Bruce is confused, as before, Damian was strongly against letting a nine-year-old fight crime. Damian explains (after much cajoling. He might be more emotionally open and healthy than when he first arrived in the manor, but the kid is still constipated) what Dick had said, and that Damian understands the kid’s need for direction. “When I first came here, I needed Robin. I might not have known it, but I did. Richard needs Robin now, as well.”
The family took sides on the issue, but eventually Dick (with the aid of his puppy-dog-eyes™) won everyone over. He got his own Robin costume, and they caught Zucko.
Dick refused to stop being Robin, and so Gotham gained a new bird.
Dick was Robin for almost two years when The Red Hood made his appearance in Gotham. No one knew what he wanted, as he didn’t seem to do much beyond killing criminals. They thought he was a vigilante at first, but then he began to take over the criminal underbelly of Gotham, regulating crime. On top of that, Red Hood targeted Robin. Attacking the boy wonder when no one else was around. After the red helmeted rogue let loose a few hints about the league of shadows, Damian interrogated his mother, who explained the identity of The Red Hood, and how she had set him on Gotham.
As soon as the family figured out the newcomer’s identity, and the reason he was alive Damian tracked him down. He knew how to deal with pit rage from his childhood, and brought the lost bird back to the nest.
The family was whole for the first time in years. Jason was still angry and resentful, but he had his family back. Jason was grateful for Damian taking revenge for him, and they were once again close. 
Slowly, Jason let everyone back in, including Bruce. Dick is wary at first of this new older brother, but the little chicken nugget quickly warms up to Jason, and even convinces him to teach him how to shoot a gun (In secret, of course, Dami and Bruce would blow a gasket). Jason couldn’t resist the kid. It was physically impossible.
A year later, Cass decides to pursue dance as her career. She gets a job with the Hong Kong Ballet company. She moves there, and decides to take a new moniker: Black Bat. Her family is so proud of her, but they miss her dearly. Duke visits often, bringing new back to the family.
The absence of Batgirl is filled after a while by Barbara Gordan. She makes her own costume and starts going out. Once again, Stephanie Brown adopts a smol bean (Well, not legally. The commissioner is still alive) and outfits her with a more Gotham-friendly suit and weaponry (I.e. heavy kevlar and leather)
Babs is taken whole-heartedly into the fold, and is made an honorary sister.

The Lady and The Bird -Part 14-
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13
"Dami-" Marinette was cut off when Damian hugged her close.
She laughed in relief, tears streaming down her face as she wrapped her arms around him. It was him! It was Damian!
"Where were you?" Jason asked. Marinette felt the older brother hug them both, and, although she knew he'd never admit it, Marinette felt Jason's tears on her shoulder.
"I'm glad to see you, too, Jacey."
Pulling away slowly, Marinette whipped her face woth her sleeve and smiled. "We should get you to Bruce."
"Whatever you say, my Angel. Where is Bruce, anyway?"
"In his 'office'," Jason answered.
He began leading them towards the stairs, but stopped suddenly when Damian began humming.
"Wait, actually, Tim is in the office. Bruce is out with Selina."
Marinette scrunched up her nose. "No, he's-"
Jason looked at Marinette in an attempt to tell her something with his eyes, but she couldn't understand. Still, she decided to trust him. Never had Marinette seen this type of panic on anyone's face.
"Or, I guess he must've left while I was napping."
Jason nodded. "He did. Tim is alone in the office right now."
"Well, we could always wait for Bruce in the living room," Marinette offered, her brain trying to understand why Jason would lie.
"Exactly. Besides, Damian, you should rest. You're probably exhausted."
Damian laughed. "No, I want to see Tim. You should stop worrying about me, Jacey, people will think you care."
Marinette froze, because in that moment, everything clicked.
'Jacey.' 'My Angel.' 'Bruce.' 'Tim.'
That's not what Damian called any of them.
"What," she started, tears forming in her eyes, "the hell have you done to him?"
Damian furrowed his brows, an arm reaching out for Marinette. "What's wrong, betrothed?"
Marinette jerked away, removing an earring to summon Tikki. Jason was at her side, ready to fight, as she transformed.
Damian appeared confused as he backed into a corner. "Marinette, please, tell me what's wrong!"
"Why are you here?" Jason demanded.
The thing finally gave up on the act. "To destroy all of you. Oh, and the rescue the mangy cat."
"Stop talking," Marinette warned, but it just looks at her and smirked.
This twisted thing in front of them was the work of Hawkmoth. And Marinette hated it. She hated it so much.
The thing knew, too.
"You're smarter than anticipated. This extraction was supposed to be quick and easy. I guess your little sweetheart gave me the wrong cues. That's what gave me away, isn't it? Well, I guess we could always just torture him a little more."
Ladybug charged the thing, anger clouding her vision. She wrapped her yo-yo around its feet and pulled. As it hit the ground, it disappeared.
Like one of Volpina's illusions. But, no, she had held it. It had cried with her. Maybe it was an akuma. Unless-
The thought made Ladybug shiver. Unless Volpina's powers had grown. But that would mean she was working with Hawkmoth. Which meant-
"Jason, take me to Bruce."
"No way. How do I know you're not one of those things?"
Marinette didn't have time for this. She had to warn Bruce. "Please, Jason," she begged. "Take me there."
"Fine," he huffed, as he lead her down the stairs.
Once they reached the bottom, there was nothing but a regular, empty basement.
"Wha-" she didn't even know what her question was. Was Jason joking?
"Don't worry," he said, as he approached a frame of the cat that had welcomed Bruce and removed it from the wall. "There's always more than meets the eye when it comes to the Bat."
He pulled the lever.
And revealed the Cave.

inaccurate Batfam quotes #32
(Idea from a good friend on instagram: Barbara :3)
Wayne Manor but Quarantine
Bruce: Realizes he'll be practically trapped in his house with all his crazy™ kids and he sighs internally, externally, eternally...
Selina: Goes on her "shopping sprees" because since everything is closed security is short-staffed. ;) but she's having a great time with it. She also makes this time to bond with all the kids cause she wants to be the best step-mom UwU
Dick: All his brothers bet on how long he'd last. He lasted a day. (Tim won the bet) He Becomes depressed after a week and has often been seen on the lounge couch in pajamas and a robe eating a tub of ice cream and watching mean girls. Constantly talking about wanting to go see Wally and being shot down. (It doesn't matter tho cause Wally comes to see him anyway)
Babs: Does not mind quarantine. Stays healthy and active. Get's REALLY into TikTok and Instagram. Starts like- 5 new hobbies: Yoga, makeup art, making TikTok memes (and forcing Dick to be in some of them) etc.
Jason: Doesn't care about the warnings. Leaves the house a lot. Goes to public places. Since everything is closed he chills on rooftops or sometimes even parks. Occasionally joined by Roy Harper. helps Alfred with a lot of meals cause we all know he's second best when it comes to cooking in the family.
Steph: Panic buys the entire stock of waffles and other snack items. Is really worried about the warnings at first but everyone comforted her so she'd calm down. (Jason fakes coughs every now and then around her for laughs) Most of the time chilling in her own room or in Tim's just snacking.
Tim: Is not effected by Quarantine. He was already a Hermit to begin with. Now he had an excuse to be inside all the time so he's doing great. Get's really into Animal Crossing on his switch and chills with Steph a lot if he's not staying up playing online with Bart and Kon. Steph already bought him the stock of coffee so he had no worries.
Dami: Takes Quarantine VERY seriously. His brothers tease him for caring but he responds with "I only care about my own health and the general public. We are heroes and need to set examples to protect our city." Or somthing along those lines. (he does actually care tho)
Duke: Tries not to let it get to him. He's maxin' chillaxin'. Spends his time pranking everyone else to get their spirits up. (we do not deserve this lovely boi) Starts a prank war and Nerf gun/water gun fight with everyone. Even Bruce joined.
Alfred: The actual GLUE to everyone not losing their minds. Enjoys teaching Babs cooking as a new hobby she picked up and loves chatting over making food with Jason. Get's to rest a lot more since at least one of the boys or Steph does spontanious chores just to do something and being all and all the best Butler/Grandfather ever. (as per usual)
Harper: HATES quarantine. She goes to the skate park a lot with a skateboard or rollar blades cause her hockey team is cancelled the entire season and she needs the release. Dyes her hair at least 5 times, all different colours.
Cass: Trains a lot. Reads a lot. Stays in the background of everything. Selina focuses on bonding with her mostly and they form a really lovely connection over the time spent together.

WIP DamiColin
Another WIP of a fic DamiColin that happen in my Beautiful Bouquet AU
The text happen after the other WIP
Warining character death / child character death
                                                         ~*~
Damian is dead.
That’s something Colin still doesn’t understand.
Damian is dead.
Jason was waited for him in his room after school. His eyes were red, his lips still shaken, but his cheeks dried.
“Come here, please. I need to tell you something.” He simply say taping Colin’s bed so he sit next to him
Colin thought: “That’s it. That’s the moment where he say they can’t keep me with them. How sorry they are but it’s for the best.”
He would have prefer that.
“Papa! Look what I did! Lian exclaims holding one of her drawing
-Not now, Lian. Roy tells her taking Lian in his arms to carry her off in another room. And I have something to tell you.”
Jason waits till he heard a door be closed. Then sights.
“There is no good way to tell you that.
-I understand. Colin interrupt him not wanting to hear the same excuse. You’re not the first that can’t keep me. I’m grateful for everything you did for me …
-Oh Colin.”
There was so much pity in Jason’s voice. But not the kind he was expected and something animal in him make him feel distress like he never did.
“You stay here, now more than ever.”
Colin frowned, didn’t understand.
“You’re our son, nothing could change that. We love you so much.”
Jason take his face in his hand and look at him with so much sorrow.
“What’s going on?” He finally dares to ask
Tears fight in Jason’s eyes to fall but he hold them back. He kiss Colin’s forehead, before looking him in his eyes without blinking and say it.
“Damian is dead.”
Colin never understood the expression “It’s broke my heart” or “I feel my soul leaving me”. But it was exactly that he feels. Without this unnatural pain in his heart, he is not sure he could have stay in his body.
“Why? He asks by automatism without wanting to know because it can’t be true
-I can’t answer to that. There is no reason for that.”
Colin swear he loves his dad but he never wanted to hit him so much at this moment.
“For the How, Jason proceed without knowing Colin’s hate, his grand-father had some great plan about Gotham and the world as usual, it seems even that he made some clone of Damian … While Damian save the world, one of his clone stab him. It was instantaneous, he didn’t suffer.
-Like … Damian kill himself sort of? If it’s a joke, that’s not funny.”
Jason wanted to say something but his voices broke while he rubs his still dried cheek.
“That’s not funny. Colin say again making his dad cry this time. That’s not real. Please … I’m begging you … Tell it’s a lie … Tell me it’s a joke … You lie! You want to kick me out, right? That must be that …”
Jason taken him in his arms while apologize like he was the one who kill Damian, and only then Colin realize he was crying.
“Papa! Lian says enters the room. Daddy said silly thing about Uncle Dami that’s not funny!”
But then she saw Colin and Jason cry and she just fall, like suddenly her legs can’t support her weight.
Roy arrives next to her and take her in his arms while she is crying too.
Damian is dead.
                                                                                                                   ~*~
Even in front of the body, Colin doesn’t believe it.
Normally, everyone has a few minutes to present their respect, but once it was Colin’s turn he simply hold Damian’s cold and immobile hand and stay. No one dare to make him move, so everyone pay their respect with Colin next to them but seems unable to see them.
“Are you sure it was a good idea to bring him here? Loïs asks without judgment but worried
-No, Jason admits, but he said he was going to come anyway and I prefer him being with us.”
Colin is the only kid present. All the others parents refuse their children see one of them could die. Knowing is one thing, seeing it another.
Some people try convince them that Colin stay long enough now.
“It’s only him that can tell.” Roy answer for the nth times
Jason couldn’t stay next to Damian, he couldn’t even sit next to his family. Damian was two years younger than him when he died. He shouldn’t never happen. If only he was there for his family.
Roy is so the one that stay close to Colin. When everyone had pay their respect, Roy tries to convince him to sit down for the ceremony. Colin simply shake his head. Someone try to make Bruce intervenes but he answers loud enough to anyone to hear.
“Let him be. He doesn’t bother anyone.”
Bruce knows how deeply his son love … loved Colin. No matter where he is, it must make feel happy, less alone, to feel the hand of his friend in his.
Roy nods but whisper to Colin that at the end of the ceremony he would have to let Damian go so they can put him in the ground.
He takes no pleasure at that but he hopes that it would help Colin to prepare himself to the inevitable.
The ceremony finished, Jason stand up to come near to his son while Roy takes Colin by his shoulder.
“It’s over. You have to leave now.
-No.
-Colin …
-No!”
Colin yells, cries. He transform into Abuse to make sure his parents can’t make him move. With his brusque movement he almost make the coffin fall into the ground. Without Clark to maintain it, Damian would have be in Colin’s arms now.
Bruce and Damian’s sibling cry and can’t help them to move Colin, because deep down it’s what they want to do.
As gently as they can, Roy and Jason try to calm Colin.
“You have to let him go.
-No!
-You don’t have the choice.
-Yes I have.
-I begging you. Don’t follow him.”
They hold his hand who keep holding Damian’s hand.
It’s that that make Colin realize. The difference between their hands and Damian’s.
“He’s gone …
-We know.”
Without really understand how, Colin take back his true form and let Damian go. Roy and Jason hug him so strongly that it’s hurt but he doesn’t want them to stop.
Selina is the only one who succeed order that Damian is put on the ground. And she sees in Bruce’s eyes that the grieving father that he is doesn’t forgive her, but the loving husband that he is, is thankful.
He never needed her as much as now.

How many mom figures does Jason have in crushing u?
He’s got mom-figures, aunt-figures AND grandmother figures.
Selina and Talia are both like mothers to him. Talia especially has straight-up claimed him as her son, as far as she’s concerned, she has two sons, and their names are Jason and Damian. Damian is very confused by this, because he will be talking to Talia on a custody visit or whatever you want to call it, and she’ll say, “Give your brother my love when you get back to Gotham,” and the first thing to come to mind for Damian is, but I don’t have brothers? and the next thing to come to mind is but I have a whole bunch of brothers? and he’ll say, “What brother do you mean, mother?” because he can’t figure out why she would say that to any of them, and Talia is annoyed like, “The only brother you have, Jason, obviously!” And Damian is just like?? How and when did this happen?! (Like eight years ago Dami, keep up). And I am absolutely stealing @holy-fate-worse-than-death‘s idea that all the Al Ghuls are christened in the Lazarus Pit. When Talia submerged and healed Jason in it, that was her christening Jason as her child too. That was her birthing him. She’s as much Jason’s mother as Bruce is Jason’s father, it’s real to them. She is his mom.
Jason’s relationship with Selina is more more new, like the kid warming up to his step-mom (because that’s almost literally the situation) but they have a strong base. And Selina really understands him like Bruce honestly can’t. She was raised on the streets, ran a mom for a bit there, was a thief/criminal, on almost any point where Jason and Bruce would argue, she can actually trust Selina to understand where he’s coming from an maybe even be on his side. They are very similar in a lot of ways and immediately started to connect when she officially married Bruce (which was the unspoken ‘okay’ for the family to start getting attached to her, before that she was flighty so they always felt she might leave and didn’t want to get too attached to her in case that happened). But now they are getting very close. Dick is still a bit wary of Selina, and Tim and Damian don’t have much in common with her, but Jason is a boy after her own heart, they have similar humor and are both skilled infiltrators and thieves, she loves teaching him a thing or two in that respect.
The family actually tries to keep them from teaming up much on missions unless Bruce or Dick is there too because it all just inevitably gets out of hand because they love breaking into places and joking around, especially at Bruce’s expense. Selina actually thinks a lot about how life would have been if she’d found Jason instead of Bruce, if maybe Jason’s life might have been better. But knowing her luck probably not, so she never voices this thought aloud, all it would do is hurt her boys, but she likes to think there’s a universe out there where Jason was her son first and Bruce’s second–not that she doesn’t love the other kids too but with Jason it just feels especially right and oh-so-possible that he could have been her Stray.
And then there are Jason’s ‘aunts’, good old Ivy and Harley, an anon sent me something that’s just perfect for this and I was holding on to it to think of something to write with it, but I think I’ll post it here because it’s so appropriate:
Tumblr media
Ivy and Harley have officially acknowledged him as Selina’s kid, (unofficially they’ve acknowledged the other batkids as her kid too, but they are less excited about their inclusion. Ivy is going to miss tying up Tim with vines and Harley always had fun fighting with Damian but now they have to ugh, HOLD BACK. Harley really likes Duke, though, and has called him her nephew to his face, which Duke is very confused about, and knowing that Damian hold’s the Al Ghul views about saving the environment from humans gives Ivy a positive view of him.) They’d always rather liked Jason, Harley very much approved of him trying to kill the Joker, not to mention that Robinson Park, right next to Crime Ally, had a lot less assholes running around messing with Ivy’s plants when Jason took the territory, so she’s always had a higher opinion of him for that reason alone. So far Jason is the only kid who has been invited to Sirens’ nights, though they are considering inviting the others, maybe one or two at a time. Harley has really been trying to be a hero lately and Ivy, because she loves her, is making an effort to as well, especially now that Selina has taken the plunge, so they’re going to have to get used to these kids if they want to stay in Gotham.
For Jason’s part he likes knowing that he can count on those two in pretty much any situation, they are never going to judged him for having killed people, or for much of anything really because they’ve done worse and don’t regret their actions. It’s very relieving for him to know that he’ll always be accepted by them, even if he messes up with this thing with the JLA and the batfam and everything. If for some reason he royally screwed-up and all the heroes turned on him, he knows Ivy and Harley wouldn’t.
And on to the grandmother figures. Jason has Ma Gunn and Ducra. Jason doesn’t know it, but Ma Gunn is his biological grandmother. She’s your regular ol’ uzi-wielding, cigar-smoking granny and you can see exactly where Jason gets it from. She was never around when Jason was a kid, when she took Jason in the first time she never told him they were related and when he got older it felt too late to mention it. Jason doesn’t like what she was doing before, but he’s been crashing at her place with the Outlaws for a while now and she really does treat him like her grandkid, and she’d never thought she would feel any kind of care or pride over her useless son’s kid, but she can’t help herself. They are just so much alike. If something happened to her, Jason would be pretty upset. If Jason ever found out she was his grandmother, he’d be really betrayed that she hadn’t told him, because he does hold a certain fondness for her and would love to know that she was his real grandmother.
Ducra is his other grandmother figure, and he’s really grateful to her for taking him into the All-Caste. He knows she has a certain fondness for him, because if she didn’t the descent among the Caste at his acceptance would have had her running him out ages ago. They didn’t like that he was an outsider or a human or uninitiated into any organization they respected (like the League of Assassins). That she took it upon herself to recognize him as their prophesied and teach him their ways made a lot of people hate her. In the end she was right, that he was strong and good and was able to learn all of their techniques, yet they still don’t like him. Jason is really thankful that she fought for him against her own people, as well as was the only teacher he had at the time to teach him anything worthwhile or good–while everyone else were awful people like Egon who betrayed his sense of ethics at every turn.
Sometimes Jason wonders if he might be descended from her, far far back in his bloodline or something, and maybe that’s why he can use the All-Caste techniques when most people on the planet can’t even after lots of training, but she’s never talked about having any kids outside of Essence (not to mention that would make his thing with Essence a little weird) so maybe that’s just some wishful thinking on his part. Maybe he just wishes there was a blood connection so he could never lose that relationship, like he worries losing his relationship with Talia or Selina or Ma Gunn. Like he seemed to lose his relationship with the bat family. He had worries that maybe blood was the only way you could be assured that people would stay with you, keep loving you–but some time with Kori and Roy finally changed his mind on that. He knows they will always love him and they don’t need blood for that, so he’s less worried than he used to be that all of these relationships in his life will just go away one day when they realize he’s not good enough.

Batcat with 9 and 34? That would be cute. Congrats on the milestone btw. You deserve it
Aahhh, thank you so much, angel!! 💞💕💘❤️💖💗💝 I adored writing this, and… may have gotten a bit carried away. Anyway, I hope you like it as much as I liked writing it. Also, have this link to this rad BatCat playlist I listened to while writing.
Have a request? Hit me up!
BatCat: 9 (Valentine’s Day) + 34 (“I may have accidentally, sort of adopted five cats.”)
“What?”
It was nine in the morning on Valentine’s Day. The air was crisp and cool, and the sun shone in warm, radiant sheets over Gotham, not a cloud to be seen for once. Selina Kyle wanted to kill a man.
“I said: I may have accidentally, sort of adopted five cats.”
She had seen him last night– technically, this morning– and they had done their little dance over moonlit rooftops and through misty winds, her, coquettish and smiling, and him, resistant but yielding. “Come by later,” she had purred as her arms laced around his neck, a performance of desire so commercial and artificial, it’d almost made her laugh. “I’ll think about it,” he’d responded by way of saying yes, before gently untangling her from him and gliding away into the lifting shadows. If she’d known that he was going to arrive at her doorstep after she’d only had two hours of sleep, and without a gift in sight aside from his lustrous personality, she’d have pushed him off that roof herself.
For several long minutes, she leaned against her door frame and stared at him through half-lidded eyes, the sound of cars and laughter filtering into her room. Bruce didn’t say a word, hardly shifted a muscle, just stood there with his hands clasped behind his back and a blank, non-humorous expression on his face. If she had been in a more pleasant mood, Selina, too, might have laughed; but all she wanted to do now was strangle him with that hideous brown scarf he was wearing and climb rightfully back into bed. But she didn’t do that because, deep, deep down, Selina Kyle was a good person, and good people didn’t leave five defenceless cats at the mercy of a, frankly, hopeless Bruce Wayne.
“Give me a minute,” she said.
Then she shut the door in his face.
Apparently, even Alfred had plans for Valentine’s, because they took a cab back to the Manor, Bruce sitting in uptight silence as she watched the streets rise and fall through cat-eyed (ha) sunglasses. The suburbs were vibrant with celebration, heart shaped balloons and coquelicot roses lining the streets with shades of reds and pinks; vendors sunny eyed and grinning in the wake of the commercial exploitation that was inevitable on this day. Selina may have been complicit in that system (was it so much to expect chocolates, at least?), but she was always in support of a good con scheme when done by those who needed the money. If Bruce ever came around to the fact that it was Valentine’s, she hoped he’d buy his very lavish and excessive present for her from one of the local stores.
“So?” she asked at last, tilting her head at him as they approached the imposing Manor gates, “How exactly did you ‘accidentally’ adopt four cats?”
“Five,” Bruce corrects, tipping the driver twice their fare before making his way around to her side. Sure, he could remember to open the door for a girl but not to wake her up before noon. “And quite easily, if you must know.”
She glared, arching her brow at him and crossing her arms. He mimicked her stance, absolutely stoic, and she scoffed, throwing her hands in the air before stalking inside, the hints of a smile pulling dangerously at her lips. She wasn’t letting him off so easy, even if he was acting cute.
Alfred opened the Cave’s entrance as she was about to alight the front doorstep, looking more harrowed and annoyed than usual. For him, she smiled warmly, pushing her glasses up and waving cheerily. 
“Good morning, Ms. Kyle,” he sighed in that long suffering way of his, tucking his hands behind his back identical to how Bruce had greeted her minutes before. Her smile widened into a grin and she took light, quick steps towards him. As she drew closer, she could hear odd grunts and muffled voices drifting from the hidden crevice. 
“Forgive me for not joining Master Bruce in fetching you today. I was preoccupied with ensuring that no one was too hurt in their trying endeavours.”
Selina raised her brows, as she peered around him. “What endeavours might that be, precisely?”
“Perhaps it would be better for you to see for yourself.”
Mornings were rare in the Cave, but even the punctuating sunlight couldn’t change its virtue of being, well, a cave. Great. Being stuck in a dewy, moss covered underground lair was exactly what she had in mind for today. She could always count on Bruce. Even Ivy had the grace of having them convene in a lush, evergreen paradise rather than a hole hidden by brambles and weeds. Granted that paradise was filled with carnivorous plants that would bite your head off the moment she gave the word, but still. At least it was floral scented. 
She heard the children before she saw them, and the irritation she felt satiated slightly, a fond heat blooming in her chest at their chaotic arguments. Dick had his head and hands stuck in one of the upper shelves forming the Cave’s ceiling, the front of his shirt coated with debris and dirt, while Stephanie was calling up not so helpful suggestions from below him, videotaping the entire spectacle. Cassandra, who was watching in a sort of amused fascination from where she was curled in the Batcomputer’s throne (the Batchair? Batrecliner? Whatever) looked up when she walked in and waved. Stephanie glanced up and sighed dramatically, setting her phone down.
“Show’s over, guys. He brought reinforcements.”
“Oh, thank God.” After a bit of squirming, Dick’s floppy hair reemerged from the tunnel-like opening and he huffed bits of fur from his face. Leaping down with his always impressive agility, he dusted off his shirt and grimaced. “Hey, Selina.”
She looked around the Cave, able to hear the faint growls and mews coming from where Dick had been poking about now they had fallen relatively quiet. Batcow was grazing amicably in her pen, seemingly undeterred by the probably daily commotion, and that odd turkey had settled down on top of her. Their technical owner was nowhere in sight.
“Where’s Damian? He’s the only one out of you who knows how to look after an animal around here. Aside from Alfred, of course.”
“Hey, I had a dog,” Dick protested, nursing his lightly scratched arms. “But Damian’s away on a school trip for two weeks. That’s why we called you.”
Selina lifted a brow and looked to Bruce. “Damian agreed to a trip?”
“It was compulsory. I expect he’ll be back in Gotham by tonight.”
“If you’re lucky,” snorted Stephanie, who was browsing through her phone with a satisfied smile, “I’m betting this afternoon.”
Shaking her head, she peered upwards. “What’s that story then?”
“Dunno. We think one of Dami’s strays delivered up there, but there’s no sign of her.” Dick ran his fingers through his hair, accepting the bandages Alfred held out to him with a solemn, “Good show, sir.” “They’ve been up there a while, we think, but we’re only just finding out because someone can’t tell which of his sons cats are his and which aren’t.”
“Yeah, Dad,” Stephanie chimed, earning her a curious look from both Dick and Selina. “What? Kara gets to do it.”
She didn’t even want to know when or why Supergirl had been initiated into their family, sarcastically or not, so Selina just rolled up her sleeves and called for a footstool.
It took her all of three minutes to get the kittens down. Somehow, with all their intellect and training combine, none of them had thought to use tinned wet food laced with a spritz of catnip. Or, judging from Cassandra’s enigmatic smile as Dick cursed and wailed about his ruined fingers, had but had elected not to offer their services.
The kittens were about a month old from her estimates, small sharp teeth already forming, but their eyes still an opaline turquoise. She cradled and crooned at them in her arms as Alfred procured a basket, her fingers lightly brushing their shivering bodies. Bruce was watching intently by her side, his arms hanging awkwardly as he struggled between thanking her and asking to hold one. Him and his children.
“Here,” she said suddenly, depositing the orange one into his hands suddenly, a wide smile on her face. “You should practice if you’re looking after them until Damian gets back.”
He looked so flabbergasted, it took all of her not to burst out laughing. In his large, lined palms, the kitten was smaller than ever, an island of sunset coloured fluff that looked nearly as frightened as he tried hiding he was. She wanted to kiss him, but settled for patting his cheek gently for the sake of his children. Children who, it seemed, had a more exciting day ahead of them than she likely had. 
“Well,” Stephanie said, standing with a stretch, “hate to disappoint everybody, but I have to go.” She bounced on her toes before snagging one of Cassandra’s arms. “Cass and I promised we’d meet Kara for a women’s day out.”
“Meaning none of you could get a date,” Selina teased as she moved the kittens into the linen padded basket Alfred had provided. He’d steamed the blanket before lining arranging it in, and they settled down easily, after a few seconds of mewling.
“Least we won’t be stuck in a cave teaching Batman how to look after kits.”
“Cheeky,” Selina laughed, swatting her arm as she sashayed past, pushing Cass ahead of her, “Be safe, have fun, scam boys.”
“That’s the plan, Catmom,” Stephanie saluted as both she and Cass exited, just as Bruce was saying something to the effect of, “Wait, no. Cassandra don’t do that.”
Dick followed after them, waving cheerfully at Selina. “See you, guys. I’ve got to go see Babs.”
She returned the gesture, and Bruce nodded in acknowledgement since his hands were still full with orange fluff. Once their voices faded, the Cave fell deathly quiet and she turned to him, her hands on her hips. “Let’s get you to work, then.”
Despite all his hesitation and uncertainty at handling something so small and fragile, Bruce was a fast learner, and, before long, had bonded fast and firm with the orange kitten. Selina watched, leaning back on her palms on the floor of the cavern, as he carefully syringed milk into the kitten’s eager mouth, a faint smile on his lips that was so small, he probably didn’t even realise it was there. Her heart swelled, and she leaned her head on his shoulder, feeling it tense and relax beneath her weight.
Halfway through his ministrations, she had placed another of the kittens on his other shoulder, just to see how he’d manage it. That had taken a lot longer for him to ease under, but the kitten, a white one with black and brown spots, had quickly dozed off, still on his perfectly stable shoulder. “You can walk with it there,” Selina had informed him and he’d mildly replied that he’d rather not, if it was all the same to her. That had made her laugh, and she had kissed him then, light and chaste at the corner of his cheek. As always, he seemed puzzled by her affection, and she didn’t think she’d ever tire of how his eyes would widen or narrow before slowly slipping shut, accepting of her love, even if she was rather tired now.
“What’re you calling him?” She asked softly, her hand moving from the vortex of sleeping kittens in her lap to the one who’d now curled in his. Gently, his hand came to rest atop hers, heavy and warm. Her heart quickened, but she was too sleepy to admonish herself for the girlishness of it. The quiet was made for honesty, after all, and she knew, just as he’d always be surprised by her, she’d always be delighted by him.
He was quiet for a moment, considering. Then, resolute and fond, he declared, “Orange Mimosa.” 
Selina was glad he couldn’t see her face.
“That’s where Damian gets it from,” she muttered to herself.
“What?”
“I said I’m going to sleep now.” Settling more comfortably beside him, she closed her eyes, ignoring whatever protest he was about to make. “And you know they aren’t going to stay in the Cave like you want them to, right?”
His shoulder rose and fell with a sigh.
“I know. You can’t make a cat do what it doesn’t want to.”
His arm circled around her shoulder and she pressed a little deeper into him, a faint smile on her lips as her body relaxed, content. For a day spent in a dingy cavern, it hadn’t been the worst Valentine’s she’d had. Then again, any day she was with him was a good one in her book; this had just been better than usual. 
“I can’t believe them,” Dick hissed, his hands planted firmly on his hips. “No, I can’t believe him. All that planning, and he falls asleep?”
Tim sighed as he secured a blanket around the two dozing adults, and the five kittens curled in their laps. “Give them a break, Dick. They probably had a long night.”
“Give them a break?! I had my hands scratched.”
“Which you deserved if you were manhandling the cats, Grayson,” Damian declared unflinchingly as he adjusted the cuffs of his navy blue thobe, fitted for him that morning.
“Hey, if they don’t get up in an hour’s time, can we eat the cake ourselves?” Stephanie chimed softly, her arm linked with Cass’s, both dressed in radiant dresses of indigo and gold. Beside them, Jason was watching the scene with a grin that was a touch too gleeful for Dick’s tastes.
“Sure,” Dick threw his arms up in the air, Tim ushering them all out, “We might as well, since we did all the work. That’s the last time I’m helping him plan anything!”
“Well, Dick, if it doesn’t happen, maybe you can reuse the ring to propose to Barbara again.”
“Jason Peter Todd-Wayne!”
As they made their way upstairs, a broad smile blossomed on Selina’s lips, her heart floating amongst her dreams. No, not the worst Valentine’s she’d had by far.

The Next Generations view
My name is Nathan Wayne Grayson
My name has a meaning for it in all 3 pieces. Nathan after my maternal great grandfather, Wayne for my Adoptive Paternal grandfather and Grayson my dad's last name. I am the next generation of the legendary ”Flying Grayson’s”
The nickname the press has given me since I was an infant is ”The Prince Of Gotham” I despise my nickname, I don't want to be looked at like that. I just want to be looked at as a regular 14-year-old boy. I suppose the nickname spans from who my parents are Dick and Barbara Grayson-formally Gordon. The adoptive son of Bruce Wayne and the police commissioner daughter. As much as I’d like to be normal my life is anything but normal. Ignoring the fact of WHO my family is it’s WHAT we are that makes us abnormal. I am the protege to the Dark Night, the legendary Robin. I followed in my father’s and Uncles footsteps. I started my training at age 10 and officially became Robin at age 11. My abilities include acrobatics and extraneous computer skills plus all the other skills it takes to be accepted as a Bat.
Want a rundown of what makes up my family? Here it is,  
Dick Grayson, my father AKA Nightwing. I don’t always patrol with Batman, I’ll occasionally patrol my hometown of Bludhaven with him. I love him and look up to him but people often compare me to him because of our resemblance and sometimes that makes for a lot of pressure. But I can't be all that much like him, from what I've been told my dad was quite the ladies man. I can't flirt worth anything, the only girls I can talk to I'm either rated to or are my friend. Otherwise, I turn into a klutzy, stuttering mess My dad is super overbearing though, he coddles my sister and me to no end. Mom says when my sister was a baby she arrived back from patrol one night to find him rocking her and singing ”I’ll be watching you” which isn't creepy at all (note the sarcasm). And he will randomly just hug me and kiss my cheeks, even when we’re being Robin and Nightwing.....I’m almost 15 that's gotta stop.
Barbara Grayson- My mother, we’re really close. I will secretly admit that I’m a “mamas boy” but I can’t help that we have a really great bond. Maybe it spans from the fact that for the first 8 weeks of my life it was just her and I. Long story short they thought my dad was dead but he was actually undercover and had no clue my mom was even pregnant. She thinks I’m innocent and her “precious baby boy” like I said, I’m almost 15 my parents gotta accept that I’m growing up. My mom used to be Batgirl then when I was 4 she was shot by the Joker and became paralyzed from the waist down which transitioned her to Oracle. When I was 10 she had a chip inserted on her spine that made her regain the use of her legs. She now alternates between going out as Batgirl and Oracle stuff but mainly does Oracle now.
Leah Grayson: My 10-year-old younger sister. She looks like my mom, red hair and all. She wants to become a vigilante but Dad’s against it. My mom seems to be on the fence though and if she decides it’s okay she’ll convince my dad to let her. She’s -spunky for lack of a better word. My dad says she reminds him of my Uncle Jason when he was young which might be why he doesn’t want her to be a vigilante. It also explains why she’s Uncle Jay’s favorite
Tim Drake, My Uncle Tim is the vigilante known as Red Robin, he’s cool and understands my love for tech, he's kinda over obsessed with everything. He likes to research everything to the max and is always prepared for the situation ahead of everyone else ,whatever it may be.
Stephanie Drake, AKA Spoiler. My sister is my Uncle Jason’s favorite and I’m my Aunt Steph’s favorite. For as long as I can remember she’s loved me. We have a good bond and she spoils me (no pun intended)
Juliet Drake- My baby cousin, she’s 1 and is my little princess. She has me wrapped around her little finger. She has dirty blonde hair and big blue eyes, I love spending time with her and can’t wait to see what she becomes.
Jason Todd AKA Red Hood, my Uncle Jason and I have a -I guess you would call it a normal relationship. We aren’t close but we aren’t .....not close. I know he’d kill someone if they ever messed with me in other words. He sure doe’s spoil my sister though, in his eyes she can do no wrong.
Cassandra Cain AKA Black Bat, Aunt Cass is cool cause she helps me sneak behind my parent's backs and get away with stuff. I should’ve mentioned my Uncle Jay does too occassionally.
Damian Wayne, AKA NightGoul Uncle Dami is....interesting. We’re only 13 years apart so he hates it when I call him “Uncle” even though he only refers to me as “Nephew” seriously I think he’s only ever called me by name a handful of times. I like to call him Uncle Damian just yo annoy him.  Dad says he’s calmed down a lot since when he first met him. I can’t imagine how emotionless he used to be cause he’s pretty emotionless now. But he’s also one of the main ones who trained me to be Robin so I owe him that
Helena Wayne: AKA the new Huntress shes technically my aunt but  she’s only 2 years older then me and I have never called her “aunt” she’s more of the older sibling I’ll never have but she’s fun and I’m sure as I get older we’ll have some good times.
Selina Kyle-Wayne, Aka Catwoman I called her Grandma once when I was 5 and she gave me a death glare that gave me nightmares for a week so I never did it again. We kinda do our own thing. She has started to socialize with me more now that I’m older.
Bruce Wayne, Aka Batman Everyone thinks he’s so tough but he’s not. Supposedly he’s completely different with me then he was with my dad and uncles. We’re close, how can we not be? He’s Batman and I’m Robin. He literally buys me anything I want so when I turn 16 it’s going to be epic.
Mark and Melanie West- They aren't family but they are my best friends. They’re twins and we’re the same age. We’re in 9th grade at Gotham Academy. Our dads (mainly my dad) like to call us the ‘Big 3’. Mark is an Archer he’s the protege to the Green Arrow. He’s my best friend and basically the brother I’ll never have, we literally share everything with each other and keep no secrets. Melanie inherited her fathers abilities and is a speedster she is the protege to The Flash. She’s one of my best friends too. We actually kissed a few months back. It wasn’t anything romantic, she did it more as a favor for me, it’s a long story and we swore never to speak of it-I kinda want to talk about it though.
So there you have it, a little run down of my crazy family from my perspective. I also have a load of ”honorary” Aunts and Uncles. Like Wally, Artemis, and Roy who has a daughter named Lian that is like an older cousin to me. There's also my dad's childhood friend Donna, my moms best friend Dinah my grandpa's ”frenemie” Uncle Clark. His son Jon  is my Uncle Dami’s really good companion they go on alot of missions together. I could go on and on. It's probably not what most would consider a normal family buts its mine and I wouldn't have it any other way.

----------------------------------------------
Breaking things down a bit - The inner fam ;
Dick, Jason, Tim, Cassandra, Harper & Cullen, and Maya have all been officially adopted by Bruce in this universe
More or less in that exact order.
They’ve all kept their respective last names, but will occasionally hyphenate and tack on ‘Wayne’ to the ends of them.
Maya was brought home one day by Damian, who insisted Bruce take her on as a ward. Bruce was more than happy to oblige, tho noting how close of a bond the two children already had (and how they were already referring to one another as ‘brother’ & ‘sister’), he decided to just adopted her.
Barbara and Stephanie are not adopted
Steph is however a ward.
Bruce did ask to adopt her but she feels that it would be too weird for her to be legally adopted, since her and Tim are dating. ---She is however, considered by most of the family (in particular Harper, Cullen, & Cassandra), to be an ‘honorary sibling’.
Barbara’s father is still very much alive, altho Gordon and Bruce often joke about shared custody. (Also Babs agrees with Steph in that it would make dating Dick awkward)
Bruce still thinks of them like his own, and they’re considered as a core part of the family by everyone else.
Both also have their own respective rooms at the manor. Steph because she lives there, and Babs because she visits so often.
Claire is more or less an unofficial ward of Bruce’s.
In this verse he took her in after the death of her brother, and has been helping her to get the help she needs to recover; she’s been healing slowly but surely.
She’s formed a close bond with Duke.
She’s been getting training so that she feels less inclined to use her powers and won’t shave any more years off her lifespan.
Duke and Colin, while not officially adopted by Bruce, are his wards
Duke’s parents are still alive (though Jokerized), in light of this Bruce has offered to adopt him, but Duke politely declined. The offer remains open should he ever change his mind, however.
Colin similarly has been made an offer to be adopted, but turned it down for unspecified reasons. (ie; I haven’t decided yet if I want to go the ‘Tiny Boyfriends’ route w/ Dami&Colin in this AU, so I’m holding off on making them adopted siblings)
Helena, Damian, and Athanasia are all biologically Bruce’s children
Helena is from the future (or at least a possible future) in which Bruce and Selina have a child together. She refuses to tell them what year she’s actually from, or reveal much about her timeline.
Damian is Bruce’s son by Talia. He came to live with Bruce when he was 10.
Athanasia is Bruce’s daughter by Talia, although she was more ‘created’ than ‘conceived’ (ie, very much like those spare clone babies Talia had floating that she showed to Damian in the comics).
For clarification, she isn’t a female-clone of Damian. Talia used a sample of her own DNA and a sample of Bruce’s to create a new embryo.
When Damian was sent off to join his father, Talia had Athanasia born; aged up to ten years old to match her brother. She kept her a secret, hidden from Bruce and Damian, training her in the ways of the league for the next three years, before having a change of heart and sending her daughter to meet her brother and father.
Terry, Matt, Nissa, and Max are all from a future timeline that was wiped from existence somehow, they managed to time travel back to the past to survive.
Terry and Matt are (because of genetic tampering done by Waller) biologically Bruce’s sons. Terry is aware of this information. Matt is not.
Since they didn’t arrive with them, Terry and Matt believed Nissa & Max had died. However it turned out that their device had been damaged somehow, causing the timing of their arrival to be off by a year.
Breaking things down further - The extended fam ;
Kate and Beth are identical twin sisters, and are Bruce’s cousins.
In this verse Beth recovers from her ‘Alice’ persona and adopts the mantle of ‘Brightbat’, working alongside Kate as a vigilante.
Bette is the youngest cousin of Kate, Beth, and Bruce.
Jean-Paul isn’t related to anyone, nor is he adopted by, or a ward of Bruce.
He does however work closely with the family, and is considered an extended part of it. He’s like an honorary cousin more or less.
Luke also isn’t related to anyone, but works closely with the batfamily, earning him a spot as an honorary member, even if he's not a part of the core family.
Tiffany is Luke's youngest sister.
She's taken to training with and helping him out on the field. Don't call her his sidekick though, she hates that.
Helena B. has close ties to the batfamily, although she isn’t part of the core family, she is always welcomed by them, and in turn will always aid them when they need it.
She’s particularly close w/ both Barbara & Dick, as well as Cass. She also gets along well with Jason.
Mary isn’t officially integrated as a part of the core family, but she does live with them, having been brought to the manor to live by Babs, who she has grown close to.
She appears to be around 19 years old, in actuality she is much older. Because of the process she underwent when being made into a Talon, she doesn’t age physically.
She was taught sign language from Cassandra, although she still prefers writing as a means of communication.
While Babs fills the role as an older sister type figure for her, Mary seems to have latched on to Secret Six team-member Thomas Blake as something of a (reluctant) paternal figure.
Charlie isn’t exactly a full fledged part of the Batfam, so much as Babs has taken her under her wing and started to mentor her.
She lives with Barbara, and is generally introduced as her cousin.
Carrie is Barbara’s second cousin on her mother’s side, who randomly showed up on her door one way after finding out she had a relative in Gotham.
Eventually she discovered Babs was Batgirl and pleaded for her to mentor her.
Basil has gone from a former Gotham rogue, to a redeemed and trusted member of the batfamily.
He's particularly close to Cassandra, and has become somewhat of a second father figure to her.
Selina really is on the family friend/extended family cusp, with Helena’s arrival edging her a bit closer to the latter. --She’s not quite a part of the core family, but with a daughter from a potential future timeline showing up her dynamic definitely changes.
Her and Bruce have, as you can expect, had a thing. They have in fact, had several things. They’re very on-and-off.
When they’re 'on’ their relationship is sometimes left open (bc y’all kno I’m all about that poly)
Selina being the alleged long-lost daughter of Carmine Falcone is canon in this verse.
Kitrina isn’t quite a part of the batfamily on her own, however as Selina’s protege she’ll make appearances here and there during times of need at her mentors side.
Kitrina is Selina’s niece (unbeknownst to her, tho Selina knows.)
Maps is one of Damian’s very best friends, and has taken full advantage of that to worm her way into the (at least somewhat) inner bat circle.
She’s is --as Damian keeps reminding her -- a vigilante in training and is always asking him to mentor her so she can join in when he goes on patrols. She's even volunteered to be the Robin's sidekick.
Breaking things down even more - The outer fam;
M is for lack of better explanation, like that close family friend you have who is sort of like the cool/fun Uncle. He helps out here and there, gets along w/ most of the fam, and pops into the manor uninvited every now & then to get a rise out of Bruce.
Gets along well with Dick and Jason. (Tends to team up with the latter to tease the former)
Cullen seems to have taken a real shine to him, and has asked if M would mentor him since starting to consider becoming a vigilante. (M however is unsure he's the right fit as a mentor for the kid, since his crime fighting methods tend to be a bit brutal)
He’s not married to Apollo in this verse, though they do have an on-again-off-again type relationship (so I can occasionally hook him up with other people w/o leading to drama).
Zatanna also falls into the category of close family friend.
Her and Bruce have been friends since childhood, making her one of his oldest and closest friends.
Also her and Bruce have had a thing once upon a time. (There might still be some feelings on both sides, I’m keeping options open here...)
Violet isn’t part of the core batfamily, and she doesn’t work quite closely enough with them to be considered part of the extended fam either, but in this verse she’s close friends with (and maybe dating) Harper. which has lead to her working a bit more frequently with the bats than she usually would otherwise.
Calvin is an ally of the Batfam & comes to help them when called upon.
He gets along really well w/ Dick. Circus boys gotta stick together! ...No really, they've got like a whole act worked out together.
Tatsu is another close friend and trusted ally of the bats. Though she doesn't work often with them under normal circumstances as she usually has her own things going on, when they're in a real pinch they can call on her, knowing she'll answer.
Lonnie's position within the batfamily is...complicated, as he doesn't always see eye to eye with some of them.
Despite not always getting along (with Bruce in particular), he does help out the family from time to time when they have need for him, and has admitted that he prefers being friend over foe.
Gets along best with Stephanie and Harper.
Had somewhat of a rivalry with Tim when they were kids. They're both (mostly) over it now.
Sort of awkward around Jason since it's highly possible Lonnie's biological father is the Joker... in this verse it totally is canon
Whatever is left to break down ;
Lincoln - aka Thomas Wayne Jr - Bruce’s younger brother that he was unaware most of his life that he even had.
(I’ve not really decided what to do with him yet, he’s only been fleshed out in this verse far enough for me to have decided that he definitely exists here, his backstory will mostly follow comic canon but after that I don’t know yet)
Thomas is Bruce (and Lincoln)’s father from an alternate timeline where he didn’t die (so, again, also not a huge divergence from comic canon, except this one isn’t an asshole who tries to ruin his son’s life and break his spirit whilst claiming it’s to help him...)
(I haven’t decided yet what to do with him. Do I want him to also be Batman?? Do I want him to have retired??? We’ll see... He, much like Lincoln in this verse, hasn’t been fleshed out beyond ‘he exists’, yet.)

Dick: Shut up Jason!
Barbara: You’re not the only one to have been traumatized by the Joker, Jason!
Jason: Yeah, but I’m the only one the Joker killed.
Harper: Why do you even have ornaments of your villians, Bruce!
Stephanie: Oh, I got this one! Because the trophies in the Bat-cave aren’t enough!

Tim: Damn it! You all weren’t supposed to know the movie!
Harper: We still haven’t seen it! Sounds interesting!

Bruce: Jason! Get off of your brother!
Jason: Fuck you!
Alfred: *grabs Jason’s ear*

Jason: *stomps towards his room* I’m fucking....
Alfred: STOP SWEARING OR ELSE I WILL WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT WITH SOAP! AND STOP STOMPING!! IF YOU’RE GOING TO ACT LIKE A CHILD THEN I’LL TREAT YOU LIKE ONE!!!

Cassandra: Jason?
Jason: WHAT!
Cassandra: When are we going to open presents?
Dick: Jason, don’t do it!
Jason: Presents? Is that what you said? Presents? We'll open them when we get there. No, in fact, I'll save you the trouble. Your present is a giant fucking cannon. And you're gonna crawl in it. Then I'm gonna get 2 pounds of gunpowder and I'm gonna shoot you right out of Jersey! And then I'm gonna drive to Jersey, and pick up all the parts of your body and put them in a plastic bag. Then I'm gonna drive to my house with you in the bag and toss you into the fireplace. I'm gonna get my glass of whiskey and watch the Charlie Brown Special with your ashes burning IN MY FUCKING HOUSE! AGH!
Alfred: *runs in with a bar of soap and shoves it in Jason’s mouth* WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT THAT MOUTH!!!!
Christmas Day

Barbara: *walks over* What’s up?
Dick: Presents.
Barbara: Presents!!
Dick: PRESENTS!!!!! *lifts up Damian and they run downstairs to look at their presents*
Jason: Can you basic bitches keep it down? I’m trying to sleep.
Damian: *grabs one of Jason’s presents* this feels like it won’t break! *throws the present at Jason’s door*
Jason: *catches the present and opens it* AWESOME! A BOOK OF H.P. LOVECRAFT’S STORIES!!!
Dick: How is Jason such a nerd?

how the batboys would react to a smol damian wayne
Dick Grayson (probably 17)
- confused. mostly confused.
- “i have a brother???? a BABY brother??????”
- doesnt know how to handle it
- “NONONONO! don’t let me carry him!! i might break it” “thats not how infants work” “AAAAAA”
- as he grew up, dick would be his protector
- dick was usually a chill individual
- but god have mercy on you if you ever touch HIS baby brother
- “dick, please.” “I’m going to kill him. I really am.” “oh my lord --he’s a preschooler.”
- gave him the nickname “dami”
- when damian turned 18, dick grayson still treated him like a fragile little baby.
- damian’s favorite
Jason Todd (15)
- annoyed
- what is this small needy creature
- ....that i inexplicably find cute as fuck.
- stage brother
- so many embarrassing childhood pics of dami. damian hates it. dick is the only who realizes that the fact he took so many is more embarrassing than all of them combined. damian does not realize this
- trained damian
- it’s where he gets his angst from in this version
- when he got resurrected, damian helped him a lot in trying to piece himself together again
- brotherly rivalry
- when damian turned 18, jason invited him over to get shitfaced. dick grayson had to yell at them while being their designated driver.
Tim Drake (11)
- wasnt officially robin when he first met damian, but took over for jason when he was injured or sick
- however, he saw damian as a person he needed to impress, so he milked that fact
- “Oh yeah, that scar? It was from when uh..your dad was getting shot at so I pushed him away.” it was from a biking incident
- taught damian so many things about tech
- an amazing storyteller
- usually bruce would be too exhausted to get damian to sleep so he would do it.
- easily the best at taking care of damian among the three
- dick swears that he could speak baby
- knew exactly what damian wanted when he couldnt articulate it properly.
- as the grew up though, it turned into SERIOUS rivalry
- thanks to damian’s inherited competitiveness (thanks, jay!) they’d always see who was the best robin
- truly, tim doesnt care, he loves seeing damian grow up
- when damian turned 18 he took damian to an adoption shelter and let him empty it out
+ surprise Selina appearance!
- she’d love him wholeheartedly and unconditionally
- they took care of animals together
- “I swear Selina he likes you more than me.” (that could be interpreted in two ways, both are correct.
- taught him languages and trained him along with jason
- spends 85% of her free time hugging or cuddling the baby boy
- so many nicknames
- the best at taking care of dami
