Damian and Jason have been playing a game of hot potato with being Ra's main heir because neither of them can be fucked to deal with the league responsibilities and then they get to Gotham and find out that the 'detective' nickname has been passed on from Bruce to Tim because Ra's likes Tim for some reason and they both perk up like rival stunt men about to team up to commit insurance fraud.
Tim: dude im so scared to tell Damian that i worked with his grandfather for a little bit. did you see how mad he was when he thought i'd stolen his 'birthright' by being Robin? he might kill me!
Dick: maybe we can find a way to break the news to him gently...
meanwhile, Damian, on the phone to Jason: THAT SUCKER. HE'S GOTTEN GRANDFATHER'S FAVOUR. WE'RE FREE.
Jason: FUCKING FINALLY-
Damian: WAR IS OVER TODD, NO MORE LEAGUE MEETINGS. WE FINALLY DISAPPOINTED HIM ENOUGH THAT HE'S MOVED ON TO A NEW TARGET.
Jason: this is the biggest accomplishment of our lives.
Damian: i truly can't comprehend how we lasted this long in the runnings anyway, but thank god it's over.
Jason: does Tim know what he's in for? did you tell him Ra's will be gunning for him now?
Damian: what am i, a nice person? of course not.
Jason: atta boy.
Omg, you know what would be even funnier?
If Damian and Jason did all this fighting to not be chosen only to find out that they were NEVER a consideration to begin with 💀, even before they start this "hot potato war". (And not because they are precious grandchildren or something. This would make it funnier to me)
Like before Tim is was always Dick or Bruce (though I feel like Dick would be funnier. Hell you can even throw Alfred in there too) as the first choice 💀💀
Would they be offended or even more relieved or both?
