Bruce Wayne is best viewed through the lens of “holy shit your parents were genuinely so hot, insanely charismatic, wild, and hot and do whatever the fuck they want, and then they combined their DNA??????? they made one person out of that??” because then you truly understand he’s just Like That.

it’s not even that he’s doomed to be the main character. he’s just the product of two stars collapsing into each other while also fucking the butler along the way. that man was never going to have a normal life.

Stephanie dying her hair black for an undercover OP

Stephanie: So what you guys think

Dick:

Tim: That is so freaky

Jason: You… you look like Bruce’s mom!

Stephanie: WHAT? No I don’t!

Dick: You do! And it’s so fucking freaky!

Tim: It’s a really fucking eerie resemblance. Are you sure you’re not related to him? Like a distant cousin or something?

Stephanie: Your all fucking insane. I don’t look like her!

Jason: Hold on. Alfred! Can you come here!

Alfred: There is no need to shout Master Jason. Now what is all the commotion?

Jason: We just need to know, does Steph look like Bruce’s mom?

Alfred: Bloody Hell. You do bear a very striking resemblance to the late Martha Wayne, Ms Brown.

Tim: Told you.

Dick: Come on let’s dye it brown before Bruce sees and has a fucking panic attack.

i am an another anon, but maybe bruce wayne trying to take care of baby dick grayson? please :)

treat yourself with some batdad and his baby

this is more of a de-age situation rather than "bruce taking dick in as a baby" because, if taking account their canon-ish ages, i can't really imagine a freshly young adult bruce willingly adopting a recently orphaned baby while he himself is already in the path of becoming batman.

which gave me this idea of an elseworlds concept where bruce rejects the path of becoming batman in favor of taking care of baby dick and becoming a glorified teen parent instead.

Here's the thing.

Bruce's daughter looks exactly like Martha Wayne. A carbon copy, according to those who knew the Waynes way before they had their son.

Here's another thing.

Bruce himself doesn't notice this because the only version of Martha he met and remembers is the one who was killed in that alley. Therefore, he can't see the resemblance.

Not at first.

Regretfully, he doesn't pay much attention to her the first years after she moves in with him. It's not that he doesn't care about her (she's his child after all, as much as Damian is. How could he not care?), it's just...he doesn't know how to handle her.

She's so vastly different from what he's used to in his kids. She hasn't experienced tragedy or loss, she doesn't know about his "nightly duties", she's genuinely a young and bright eyed kid that Gotham hasn't corrupted yet. And God, he's so, so thankful for that. So glad that at least one of his children would enjoy a relatively normal and safe life.

But that's the thing, right? She's normal. He doesn't have to stop her from sneaking out of the house to kill people for revenge. She's not out there trying to break the law or stalking him, asking to join his fight. They're not bonding over the trauma of losing loved ones or investigating crimes together.

And that's what creates the damn wall between them.

He doesn't outright ignore her. She has a nice allowance, access to the same resources he had when he was young, everything a girl could dream of and more. But he doesn't spend as much time with her as a father should, too busy with his eternal mission to protect Gotham and preserve his parents' memory.

Ironically, his daughter does quite a good job at honouring her grandparents too. Especially her grandmother.

While Bruce isn't there to see her, others do. As the Wayne princess grows up and participates more in high society or public events, her resemblance with the dearly departed Martha Wayne becomes more prominent. Those who knew the woman are in awe. Those who knew her when she was still Martha Kane feel like they're seeing a ghost.

The Kanes themselves surprise everyone by showing up more to meet the girl, because by now everyone is talking about Bruce's daughter basically being the reincarnation of her grandmother. She's showered in support and admiration. People love idealising dead famous people, and Martha Wayne was the definition of a martyr. A kind, compassionate woman known for her dedication to charity projects and to Gotham itself, along with her husband.

Before she knows it, the young heiress is on the front of every sensationalist and gossip media because she has the face of her dead grandmother and people see her as a walking ghost.

Bruce hears about it, of course, but doesn't fully believe it. He deems it a tasteless rumour made up by fanatics, by people who only see what they want to see. His daughter may have his eyes, sure, but that's where it ends. He's just a girl being held up to impossible standards by the media, who are simply catering to the public's fascination for dead socialites.

Until at one gala, she shows up dressed up in a classic style, reminiscent of what Martha herself used to wear...and a pearl collar identical to the one she wore last. And Bruce is brutally hit with the image of his mother standing in front of him, looking just like she should at that age.

Bruce: *yelling at the principal of Gotham Academy*

Duke: *sat outside the office*

Alfred, sat next to him: Master Wayne takes after his parents, I'm afraid.

Duke: So they were-

Alfred: Mrs Wayne was what you kids call "bat shit crazy". She once pulled a glock on Carmine Falcone and threatened to pistol whip him if he came near Master Wayne. She was actually banned from school grounds. Her mugshot is still framed in the Manor. I'll show you later if you like.

Duke:

Alfred: But yes, Master Wayne takes after his mother in that department.

Bruce: 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Duke:

Alfred: He has his father's eyes. But yes, the crazy is all hers.
