Tell me why I just went to read what I thought was gonna be a wholesome cute little titans forming comic and it’s so fucking depressing

Bruce introduced him to all the sidekicks and they genuinely had such a good time and were so happy together the first thing Bruce says when he gets home “what are their weaknesses”

even Alfred was disappointed and rightly so and then he went on his usual “you can’t tell them your identity trust no one” bs like I need real life comics to have tags just so I know if I’m about to get good dad Bruce or bad dad Bruce because series to series I feel like I’m skipping down the street and getting hit by a semi truck

conversations overheard through the batkid com lines pt 7

Dick: oh yeah i see you guys, hold on coming in hot-

*grunt*

Dick: hey, who are we waiting for?

Damian: Hood is working on the other side of Gotham tonight, but we're still supposed to wait for father while he talks to Catwoman

Dick: *a groan* god, he always takes forever when he's talking to her, and i'm already bored!

Tim: yeah we've been waiting for twenty minutes.

Jasons, whispering: sucks to suck for you guys- oh SHIT-

*distant gunshots*

Dick, casual: did you just give away your position to insult us Jay?

Jason, strained: *gunshot* NO,

*more gunshots, a yelp*

*silence*

Dick: anyway i'm still bored.

Tim: wanna play a game me and Damian made up?

Dick: you two made up a game?

Tim: yeah after Damian messed up and accidentally revealed he was fun on the main line.

Damian: i don't know what you're talking about, i've never had fun in my life.

Tim: -we're calling it 'league days: yay or nay?'

Dick, amused: ok, what are the rules.

Tim: ok, so, the aim of the game is to find out stuff from Damian's league days, because he got up to a lot of insane shit over there. he wrote down any interesting experiences he could remember onto a bunch of cards and then got Jason to digitalize them into a randomizer,

Tim: and then we got Jason to come up with a bunch of fake experiences and mix them in with the real ones. Damian doesn't know what the fake ones are so he has no way to come up with stories beforehand. the rules are Damian has to use the app Jason made to shuffle a random card, read it out loud to us, and then we have to guess if it's real or fake. we can ask him questions about what the card says and he has to answer, and then we have to figure out if he's bullshitting or not.

Tim: Jason isn't allowed to play because obviously he was there for like, 90% of the truths.

Jason: but i am allowed to listen and laugh! fuck you guys by the way, i almost died and nobody checked up on me.

Damian: sucks to suck, Todd. are you playing, Grayson?

Dick, giggling: holy shit, yes, i'm in. read a card.

Damian: ok, hold on.

*a beat*

Damian: oh- *a strangled sigh*

Tim: you have to read it out loud!

Damian: i am!

Damian: 'when i was a child, Todd introduced me to pokemon games, and then convinced me that pokemon were real by painting a snail and telling me it was a very small magcargo. years later, this lie was then used to convince me that i should move to Gotham.'

Jason: *bursts out wheezing* OH MY GOD-

*continuous cackles*

Damian: we may have to mute him.

*more distant laughter*

Tim: please god, let this be true.

Dick, smothering giggles: and- oh my god- and we get to ask questions?

Damian, resigned: ask away.

Tim: so- hmm.

Dick: *wheeze*

Tim: the reason you came to Gotham...?

Dick, wetly: yeah that's- that's what i think we need clarification on. Jason... Jason told you pokemon were real, and then...?

Damian: so i was around five years old, and had never played a video game before, and Todd came back from a mission with one of those handheld consoles and an old pokemon game loaded in.

Tim: what, and he told you it was real?

Damian: he told me it was based on reality and that it was just very rare to see pokemon in real life, especially in the area that the compound was in. to be fair i'd never left, so i had no way to confirm that or not.

Dick: still though, painting a snail got you to believe it?

Damian: it was- i-

*a sigh*

Damian: it was a fairly competent art project.

Jason: *starts laughing again*

Tim: see this is a hard one, because i don't know if he's laughing because of how proud he is that he did it, or because of how funny he finds his own lie. he makes shit up all the time.

Dick: this is genuinely a tough game, what the fuck. ok. how did this correlate with you coming to Gotham? i thought Talia sent you?

Damian: my mother gave me the option of going to Gotham to train with Batman, or to go into hiding with her and help during the league uprisings. i was unsure at the time because i had never met father before and didn't know what it would entail, but Todd obviously knew i would be safer coming to Gotham with him when he returned, so he took it upon himself to convince me to choose Batman.

Jason: *high pitched weeping*

Tim: see- SEE DAMIAN'S SMILING, i feel like he wouldn't find it funny if it was true, he'd just be angry that he'd ever fallen for it.

Damian: not necessarily. Todd has a very infectious laugh, i could just find his odd squeaking entertaining. you cannot base your answer on that.

Dick: so did you come to Gotham because he told you that there would be pokemon to see or something?

Damian: he told me that team rocket was active in Gotham, and that they were abusing pokemon. i have a fondness for animals, so obviously this angered me and i wanted to intercept.

Tim: it- *wheeze* it angered you-,

Jason: *silent gasps of laughter*

Dick: and what happened when- like, how did you find out he'd lied to you?

Damian: i figured it out on the boat to Gotham, about a day's journey away, and i was so infuriated that i pushed his motorcycle off the boat and sunk it. we were actually- it made us late, we were a day later than expected coming into Gotham because i sunk our ride from the boat to the city and we had to take public transport.

Dick: see but thats- like you told me before that the journey from the compound took two weeks, i can't imagine you being outside the compound for two whole weeks and not clocking that pokemon didn't exist in the real world.

Damian: i was busy with other things

Tim: bullshit, you literally said it was the reason you went!

*ping*

Bruce: apologies for the delay, i am three minutes out from your location. does anybody have any info on Red Hood? i've received reports that he may have been dosed with laughing gas. does he need backup?

Tim: he's fine, he's just an ass.

Jason, still struggling to breathe: ok- ok B's gonna ruin it now so i'm calling it. you have to choose, yay or nay?

Dick: THIS IS SO HARD!

Bruce: what's going on?

Tim: *groaning* god i so want it to be true... but i just don't buy the two week thing. i think you would have figured it out sooner.

Dick: i'm with Tim. i gotta go with nay. it's a lie.

Jason: *laughs slightly* *high pitched* alright, Damian. yay or nay, did this happen?

*silence*

Damian: *deep sigh* as much as i really wish it hadn't, this one was true. i did indeed, for a solid half a decade, believe that pokemon were real.

Dick: WHA-

Tim: ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS-?!

Jason: *bursts out laughing again* *cheering*

Damian: i should have never agreed to play this game again.

Bruce: what on earth did i just come in on...?

[cheese-vikings]

Ok I’ve been reading some reverse robins au fics and tbh I think the fam is a lot healthier that way

think about it, when dick came along he was innocent and lighthearted and needed someone to keep him safe and protect him and a young inexperienced Bruce projected his own issues and insecurities onto teaching him his paranoid self sacrificing tendencies and trust issues and was extra hard on him the way he was with himself

then because of their horrible destructive relationship he took the opposite approach with Jason and gave him too much leeway and not enough training and supervision which lead to Jason’s death and Jason didn’t have dick around to mentor him because Bruce had ostracized him

then Tim who needed love and approval was neglected and pushed away by the person he most desired affection from because Bruce was broken after Jason’s death and dick made Tim constantly feel inadequate because he spent too much time thinking about Jason

then Damian came along and felt that he was never enough and was always compared to everyone else and none of his siblings except dick could see past his abrasive personality because they didn’t know how to connect with someone from his background

alternatively a young Damian comes to Bruce who doesn’t need protection, he needs someone to teach him empathy and hope in humanity even those who do bad things, just by virtue of existing he forces Bruce to become more positive and optimistic finding reasons to see the glass half full instead of half empty

Then little Tim comes around calm and nervous and vastly different than Damian and Bruce changes again, he learns to give more praise he finds things in common with this sweet little boy teaches him how to be a detective and use tech

After that Jason comes along, Bruce is experienced enough with trauma to help him and Damian helps him constructively channel his anger and Tim is there to teach him how to be more cautious and observant and safer

finally dick arrives and bruce sees himself reflected in this little boy and he gives him a family, they’re able to comfort him to teach him how to be careful and how to fight and they’re there with him to temper his grief and mentor him, Bruce knows not to push him too hard, Damian knows how to bond with siblings, Tim talks with him about the flying graysons and Jason helps him with English and shows him the beauty in the darkest parts of Gotham

This is my “if dick casually mentioned he did a little ballet in the circus so Bruce buys him some choes nd he’s instantly hooked on them forever” au

[cheese-vikings]

I love that dick and Peter both have the same fear index

for example if they’re yapping your fine, they’re in a good mode they’re holding back having fun you might be bruised but you’ll probably only be tied up and knocked out

if they’re talking but they’re quips are a little meaner and they aren’t always smiling you might end up with a broken bone or two but nothing major you can hopefully walk it off with a month of rest

if they’re talking but not joking as in more accusatory or yelling your gonna be stuck in a wheelchair for the next year but your not going on life support or anything

However if they’re not talking at all you better pray for every fucking diety who’s name you know because you are c o o k e d it’s over for you life support or divine intervention are your only hope

part two to my first post of the bats not knowing about dicks renegade era

Damian is practicing with his katana in the bat cave when Grayson walks in

dick: ooooooo whatcha doin baby bat

Damian: training and I do not appreciate interruption

dick: you wanna sparing partner?

Damian: I’m practicing my swordsmanship

dick: yeah?

Damian: fine if you wish to be bested by me you could’ve just asked earlier

dick grabs two katanas in either hand and immediately goes in with a level of concentration Damian is unfamiliar with. It’s only a few moments before Damian finds himself disarmed on the floor staring up at dick with two blades resting against either side of his neck. Graysons eyes are dark and Damian is reminded of his mother for a moment causing an involuntary shiver to crawl up his back. Grayson drops the swords after a moment and walks away, neither speak of the moment again

[cheese-vikings]

I love the fics where the bats don’t know that dick was renegade during his teen titans era and randomly catch him doing weird shit

Jason and dick mid heated fight they’re both pinned and dick loses both his escrima sticks Jason’s injured and all of a sudden he gets really focused grabs Jason’s guns and starts firing with deadly accuracy shooting to incapacitate rather than kill or maim

Jason: what the f u c k

dick: what?

Jason: since when are you a fucking sharp shooter???

dick: …

dick: uh it’s a long story

Jason: No fucking way don’t long story me bitch tell me when the hell you learned to aim like that

dick: incoherent mumbles

Jason: what?

dick: deathstroke the terminator

Jason: are you fucking serious?????

dick: what! You’re not the only one who’s allowed to have a rebellious teenage phase
