I really enjoy Bruce as an affectionate father, even when his children hate it.
He used to kiss the top of Dicks head so often the press took notice. There were YouTube complications after a bit, every time he kissed his son’s head in an interview. But he did it at the manor all the time, it was a habit After a bit, Dick started wiping it off, or complaining about Bruce messing up his hair. Secretly he would miss it if he stopped.
Bruce often had to stop himself from continuing the habit in the batsuit.
With Jason, he was always holding his hand. Even as he got to be a teen, Bruce would hang onto his hand to remind Jason he wasn’t going anywhere. Partially it was to make sure he wouldn’t run off, he has a flight risk. When cameras were pulled out when Jason was younger, all he wanted to do was run the opposite direction. Bruce would give a good squeeze to calm him down.
Tim would lean into Bruce a lot. Not quite a hug, but just pressing his body into Bruce. If he was bored, he’d just lean into his side. If he was speaking, or Bruce was just behind him, he’d lean backwards. Bruce would squeeze his shoulders, or swing one of his arms around him. Sometimes Tim would get randomly touch averse and make himself collapse to the ground to avoid hands on his shoulders as he was on the computer or reading.
Steph was a hard egg to crack, she didn’t quite care for more of the typical affection, not that she was opposed. But Bruce would often do her hair as a method of physical affection, he eventually mastered all of the braiding methods her hair could handle. Any fancy bun at any gala, Bruce was behind it. She humored him a lot.
Bruce hugged Cass more than any of his other children, the pressure of an embrace was enough to calm her through a meltdown, panic attack or flashback. Sometimes she wouldn’t realize she needed the tight squeeze and she’d fight against it.
The newspaper once released “top 10 Bruce Wayne hugs” and 1-8 were Cassandra. 9 and 10 were Dick and Jason, Bruce was weirded out that they’d run such a specific article.
Bruce had a serious scooping problem when it came to Damian. Any chance he got, he’d scoop up his son and hold him close. Think “never speak to me or my son again,” if anyone asked anything too invasive Damian would be snuggled into his shoulder and Bruce would hold a scowl. As Damian got older, he’d mimic the upset look during interviews, and it became a huge effort to convince him to fake a smile. It got weird when he was about 16 and people started wondering how Bruce could lift him.
