"It's been six weeks since Dick walked out of Bruce's study, pretty nose held high."

Bruce sees Dick again for the first time after a fight. And if Bruce thinks Dick is going to make this easy, he doesn't know him at all, does he.

Concept of Bruce dying and getting reincarnated is fascinating but of course I’m just thinking about young, reincarnated Bruce immediately being infatuated with the much older Dick Grayson and Dick also feeling drawn to this kid 👀

So in my time in MDZS fandom, there are two strands of reincarnation fic I’ve encountered:

it’s actually a new character with the soul of the old one and some similarities - perhaps looks? Eyes? Some personality traits? But a different name

It’s the same character virtually, down to the name, just reborn eons later. This works more with your xianxia period pieces (or perhaps you could do it in the Tolkien-verse too since the Silm etc are all technically written as histories of a version of our modern world).

First strand is generally less interesting to me because I wanna read OTP not “One half of OTP with improved version of the other half”. (In this specific scenario I also will defend Bruce doesn’t need improving per se, he is a terribly flawed man but so are all humans and Dick Grayson doesn’t just love Bruce because Bruce saved him; he admires all of Bruce’s positive qualities that lead him to dedicate his life to justice and helping people/his community in his own specific weird way).

But. If you’re gonna do Bruce reincarnated immediately after dying, the latter would be — difficult but I suppose possible because lbr what isn’t possible in the DCU…

He could just be a Bruce born in a different, more sheltered part of the US with all the personality traits of his other counterpart/

Anyway Dick, years on from Bruce’s death, somehow finding a groove as his own version of Batman - the cape and cowl are his own widower’s weeds - but mostly feeling hollow and meaningless about life. Helping the child that Talia suddenly brings to their doorstep gives him some purpose, as is maybe working with Tim and Babs and Cass and Steph and Helena and all those other people who came around to orbit around Bruce.

But then he meets this kid (who, idk, maybe moves to Gotham to attend Gotham Academy’s program for gifted teenagers, perhaps under a Wayne Foundation scholarship) and he’s also named Bruce, which doesn’t really mean anything immediately except that, well, it’s an old-fashioned name you don’t hear much around these days.

But then he also has these intense blue eyes that feel so familiar and leaves Dick having weird, inappropriate vibes towards this 16/17 year old.

Ok that’s all I have for now lol, maybe more later on my commute in if work doesn’t make me break out in hives again.
