Title: Foster My Ambitions
Fandom:Batman all media Types
It’s raining, pouring down hard enough that Duke's own vision blurs with the pitter patter of the drops. Even the small alleyway awning isn't doing shit really to keep him dry and Duke lets out a bitter laugh. God he must look insane. He knows his nose is definitely broken and there’s a bruise forming on his face from talking a little to reckless at his new placement. But it was all good, he’d given as much as he got. He just has to make it past this storm. He just has to survive..
He hadn't even heard the footsteps approach, but the gritty voice snaps his attention and when he looks up the red fucking Hood is standing over him. He jumps back half startled and lets out an embarrassing yelp.
Or the story of how Duke Thomas sorta became Red Hood's robin.
