conversations overheard through the batkid com lines pt 68 (masterpost here)

Tim: i'll bet you anything i can shoot this elastic band into the roof of that convertible from here.

Dick: that's not even a challenge, you gotta do it from where Damian is across the street.

*connecting ping*

Jason: yo i see three people online, are we having a 4/4 main Gotham squad night?

Damian: yes, Father is off with the Justice League.

Jason: neat. i think i found a meta by the way, we might have to register him in the Batcave.

distant, angry male voice: I'M NOT A FUCKING META I'M A DAMN STAGE MAGICIAN.

Jason: hold on- shut up, i told you there was no way for you to know that was my card, so until you tell me how it happened in a logical manner, you are a meta and i will be keeping you tied up. -ok i'm back.

Distant male voice: i took an oath Red Hood, you cant keep fucking doing this! if it pisses you off that much then STOP COMING TO MY SHOWS.

Damian: aw man, again, Akhi? let him go.

Dick, amused and baffled: this has happened before?

Jason: 'm not letting him go, he's a meta.

Damian: he's not, though.

Tim: i seriously thought you were joking when you told me he had beef with a stage magician now.

Dick: you knew about this?

Tim: i- *sputter* i'd heard stories, i didn't think it was real.

Damian: hold on, i'm on my way over to you, Hood.

Jason: sick.

Damian: and I'm untying Clarance.

Jason: YOU CAN'T- HE'S A META.

Damian: I HAVE DNA TESTED HIM A THOUSAND TIMES NO HE IS NOT.

Distant male voice: how about- how about i do the trick again, Hood. so you can see it plainly.

*brief pause*

Jason: i'm not untying you, but sure.

*shuffling*

Distant male voice: -pick a card,

*cards flicking* *shuffling*

Distant male voice: put it back- this chain is way too tight, man. ok put it back, and you can shuffle the deck yourself.

*shuffling*

Jason: *annoyed grunt*

*silence*

Distant male voice: ...is this your card?

Jason: fuck you.

Dick, starting to laugh: H-Hood,

Jason: no- he's a fucking DANGER TO GOTHAM, SOMEBODY GET FUCKING MARTIAN MANHUNTER OR I SWEAR TO GOD,

Distant male voice: *forlorn* Hood this is the fourth time this month.

Jason: SILENCE FROM YOU.

Dick: *wheezes*

Typical night of patrol lol

Based off of a post by @oh23

[papayafromtv]

mmmm immortal jason but he doesn't figure it out until after he rejoins the batfamily. and he's also really fucking chill about it.

he figures out he's gonna Keep Coming Back no matter what when Alfred asks him to help clean the roof and while alone scrubbing out gutters he fucks up and falls off the ladder; completely snaps his neck.

he wakes up like twenty minutes later all healed and instead of freaking out, he decides that he's been through so much shit and his life is already so goddamn weird that honestly? so what if he can't die.

still concerns the fuck out of the rest of the family when jason wanders in a few hours later rubbing out the crick in his neck and when bruce asks how the roof went he goes "yeah, gutters clean. also i think i fixed death?"

"...jason what could that possibly mean." dick asks from across the room. jason shrugs.

"I dunno. fixed it."

he continues to make vague-ass uncaring comments that baffle the fuck out of everybody for the next few weeks, and they don't figure out what the hell he's talking about until one patrol they get into one of those tricky 'locked in a room and have to pick one of you to die' situations and jason just whistles, goes "man this would suck if i hadn't already fixed death," and then proceeds to shoot himself in the face in front of all the horrified bats.

he wakes up fifteen minutes later to bruce and dick having a shared panic attack on the floor, tim desperately trying to calm them down, and damian standing over him looking supremely disappointed as he goes "fucking 'fixed death' todd?? that's the only way you could think of phrasing it? i thought your special interest was fucking literacy."

in his defence he never got to finish high school.

*over comms*

Bruce: Dick, Damian, I need you to report to the Batcave immediately.

Dick: Why?

Bruce: A witch said she was going to take my first born and I don’t know if adoption are magically binding.

Jason: If adoptions aren't magically binding then surely the fact Damian was surgical removed from Talia and hatched from a tube of goo matters too.

Tim: Yeah. She might have to wait until you have another child.

Jason: But surely Bruce could just insist on c-sections from now on.

Dick: Guys...

Damian: I refuse to believe the nature of birth matters.

Tim: These things matter to witches.

Dick: Guys!

Tim: Come on, Dick. I am not saying the witch doesn't see him as B's, just that she doesn't see him as born.

Stephanie: Why doesn't one of us just call Zatanna?

Dick: Guys! Adoptions are magically binding. The witch is chasing me right now!

Alfred the cat is getting visibly depressed and lethargic from being the only cat in the house. Yes, he’s got the dogs, the cow, the turkey, and all the other pets scattered across the large acres of the manor, but there’s not a cat

Bruce notices Damian getting very worried about it, and finds himself actively looking for another cat for the family

One day, Bruce finds this tiny, scrappy little sootball of a kitten. Damian is smitten and insists on paying for the vet visit out of his own pockets

The little scrappy thing is completely black from head to toe with a pink nose and bright blue eyes. Alfred the cat is immediately curious and sniffs the tiny kitten when Bruce brings him home

The little kitten becomes Alfred’s baby, also toddling and tumbling after him. Alfred the cat becomes such a good dad to him, also cuddling him and showing him the proper way to be a cat

He’s unanimously named Bruce the cat

[starcrossedconverse]

honestly bart should have been left handed. it would have added a whole other level of "existing in a world that wasn't made for you" to impulse 95

[flashbrainrot]

I think Bart should have pretty decent cooking skills on account of spending his teens around grandparent aged folks. But if you ask him to cook, you need to be ready for your kitchen to look like a warzone because he always makes a huge mess.

For Jason, it’s hell. "

OR: Jason is trapped in the manor because of a storm when it comes to his attention he hasn't seen Dick in a while.

conversations overheard through the batkid com lines pt 1

Jason: yeah me and B are on ok terms now,

Dick: oh you guys are getting along-?

Jason: well we’re doing ok, I’m not mad at him anymore.

Dick: thought you wanted him to kill the Joker?

Jason: i did, but then like last week i went to the manor and i saw him smash the coffee machine with a hammer because it didn’t fill his mug enough; and i just don’t think he’d be a good killer.

Dick: *light wheeze* because he broke the coffee machine?

Jason: well it was just- *cracked grin* he gets- he gets angry, you know? and he’s not good at self control? like that machine did nothing and he just destroyed it. and i was just thinking about how, like, he decided that adopting kids was an acceptable thing to do, and now he has like eleven of us,

Dick: *silent cackles*

Jason: like he can’t see a kid without thinking ‘wonder if i can draft this one’. i think if we managed to convince him killing was ok it wouldn’t go well. he’d just keep doing it.

Dick: *through laughter* because of no self control?

Jason: yeah, like once he crosses that line he’d probably step over it at any minor inconvenience. he gets addicted and he gets mad at a lot of things.

Dick: so B shouldn’t kill?

Jason: no.

Dick: but you can?

Jason: well i- *wheeze* i have practice honing the rage, i don’t kill for stupid reasons. *pause* apart from that one time.

Dick, audibly amused: what time?

Jason: i sneezed and accidentially pressed the trigger.

Dick: *loud cackles*

Jason: i felt bad, man, like his cat was there-

Dick: *falls off his chair*

Jason: how are you this apathetic.

Dick: is that where Damian’s new cat came from?

Jason: it’s not like i could just leave it there!

Dick: i thought i saw trauma in it’s eyes. it had that wartime stare.

Jason: the blood spattered right across its fur. i had to bathe it.

Dick: Damian thinks it has anxiety

Jason: anxiet- dude it has more than anxiety, it has fucking PTSD-

Dick: *wheezes harder*

I HATE EDITING MY FICS. THIS FREAKING SUCKS. AHHHHHHHHHH WHY CAN I NOT JUST BE SATISFIED AND POST? WHY MUST I SECOND GUESS EVERYTHING?

This was finished WEEKS ago, and I told myself I’d give it a quick skim to clean it up and maybe add some things. Then I decided I didn’t want to, so I gave myself a break to reset my brain.

That was TWO WEEKS AGO.

I don’t WANT to edit it but I can’t POST IT until it’s edited.

Aaaaaaaaauuuuuuugh

Bat-verbal

All the Batkids go bat-verbal when they are upset, injured or had a bad day. Only expressing themselves at grunt, glare and gesture. All their teams learn to understand them, but they all think that tha batfolk are hella strange.

The Teen Titans learned to understand Dick when he was still Robin, but when Batgirl came into the scene things began to get strange. After a fight the two of them comunicate for a whole week without a single word and that was almost scary.

Red Hood usually is very theatrical, but when he shut down things are going bad, he would kill in a second if that means he could return home, make himself some tea, a muffin and read. Roy and Kory already learned the bat-language with Dick and Bizzaro learned It surprisingly fast, but Artemis never learned and even now needs a translator.

Tim is surrounded by very chatty people and sometimes the yj didn't even notice that he shut down. The core member still so fluent in the bat-language that they don't register how Tim's Is grunting and glaring instead of actually talking. Some times they answer in that strange language too.

Steph almost never goes bat-verbal and when she does she freake out even the bat family. In every team she found herself she's more often the translator than the one Bat-talking. She tend to go Bat-verbal when she fail an exam and it's the only way the family would know (that dindn't happens too often

Cass is tecnically new with the whole talking things, so It happen often that she still go bat-verbal or directly non-verbal. People are quite used to that and the biggest challenge is see how she would comunicate today. She had learned the bat-language faster than any other language finding It more instinctive.

Damian had passed not even six month in the Manor to start going bat-verbal. He does It so often than Alfred the Cat learned to seat on his laps every time before he try to kill someone. The new member of the Teen Titans had to learn fast how ro decipher him, because when he goes bat-verbal the next stage is usually violence.

Duke was a shock for the We are Robin team. He started working with Batman and then e came back grunting and there Is no way to make him talk. No one of them understand the bat-language and no one has the minimal idea of what is happening. The next time he brought the little manual of bat-language, written by himself at three a.m.

Bruce walks into the cave’s medbay to see Jason curled up on one of the medical cots while Tim stands nearby biting his lip and they both just look so ashamed of themselves that Bruce just sighs.

“What did you do. How is Jason hurt.”

“…You aren’t allowed to be mad.” Jason responds slowly. Looking up to the ceiling and mentally asking for strength, Bruce nods.

“Alright. Fine.”

“…You also aren’t allowed to judge.”

A pause, Bruce lowers his head, wary as he scans his children. “Why would I judge an injury my son has suffered?”

“…I have a gunshot wound in my stomach.”

Bruce freezes, panic momentarily flooding him until he reminds himself of Jason’s status of alive and well in front of him, and then he clocks the cautious but skittish aura of the two in front of him, and, very well aware that his children can and will do horrific amounts of runaway-parkour while mortally wounded if it means they think they’re escaping what they consider to be Bruce’s ‘overdramatic reactions’ that Bruce calls ‘parenting’, he forces himself to relax.

“I see.” He says, evenly. “Has it been treated?”

“Tim stitched it up.”

“I see.” He repeats, as Tim chews the inside of his cheek and firmly keeps his gaze on the floor. “And, um, how… did you receive this gunshot wound?”

Silence. Jason and Tim exchange ashamed eye contact. Bruce waits patiently.

Eventually, Jason sighs. “We wanted to test the new bulletproof chest plates we got from the JL.”

Bruce closed his eyes momentarily. “Uh-huh,” He encourages calmly. Tim picks up where Jason leaves off.

“We forgot to put the chest plate on before I took the shot.”

Bruce took in a breath, opening his eyes and aiming them at the ceiling. “I won’t lie to you, I am judging a little bit. Did we learn anything?”

“Yeah,” Jason snipes petulantly, shifting to curl up further in the bed. “Next time make the Replacement the target.”

Batfam Family Dinner except it's:

Bruce - Refuses to admit he needs glasses so can't refer to any of his children without the chance of getting the wrong name

Dick - Often goes nonverbal (I don't know whose headcanon this is but I love it)

Cass - Still learning to speak or also often nonverbal

Jason - Is upset with Bruce and is giving him, and by extension everyone else,the silent treatment

Tim - So locked in on figuring out a case that he has been fully out of it for 2 days

Duke - Thinks he's missing out on something, or that this is some weird sort of training and doesn’t want to be the first to speak

Damian - Is beta reading Tim's Bruce Wayne/Batman fic under the table (he's only doing it because Bruce said he wasn't allowed to adopt all the ducks at the park)
