Cheust, I fucking cackled at the batfam thinking that Pops was a predator. Imagine, they try to figure out who tf Pops is, and maybe try to beat him or something. Only for MC to smooth it out, maybe saying don't hurt the her dad or something.
Also, kinda want her to have a best friend who is like a house husband. Heck, maybe MC crashes on to his place, and the best friend (a guy) mother hens her. Like, he has the built of a power lifter, pretty strong.
Making those peeps assume MC is taken or another love rival.
Batfam, stalking reader:
Reader, walks up to Pops and hugs him: :))
Batfam, about to descend and deliver Justice for Reader!: >:(((
Reader: Hey Pops! How was your drs appointment? Is your cholesterol levels looking better? Come on, let’s get some of that soup from that vendor on the corner. *holds his arm as they walk*
Batfam, having their lightbulb moment: 😲😲😲😲😲😲
Or reader punching one of them while screaming to stay away from their dad. That they will kill them if they hurt their Pops. And reader means it. They. Will. Kill. Them. Just for Pops!
I love motherly friends, especially the dotting kind. I feel like mc loves being dotted on since they never got the chance to be loved on. I imagine mc and Eddie (that’s his name until further notice) met after reader got particularly beaten up, losing a match in the pit, Eddie couldn’t stand seeing someone look so defeated and in pain, so he helped patch you up.
Now every time you are feeling like you need to cry you go over to his apartment and let him dote on you, feeding you soup while you let your guard down and cry-whine about what your mad about. It’s healing having a friend you and cry over soup to.
You both do each others skincare and cuddle (platonically, friends can cuddle, affection is not just for lovers).
The the Robins are planning to jump him confront him about his attentions with you, but you are doing your best to keep them away
