The batkids are cats and Duke is a laser pointer
some of the habits different robins didnt realize came from Dick:
-Jason has kept the same stretching routine this whole time, even Dick has changed his, but Jason does the one that dick used to do in preparation for his circus act.
-When Tim taps his feet while writing out a report, he always taps out the same rhythm, the same one Dick used to do when he had to sit for long periods of time.
-Everytime Steph ties up her hair she uses a blue hair tie, they were the only ones around in the batcave when she needed one and then it became tradition for her. Dick used blue ones when he had longer hair because its his favorite color.
-Damian always rolls his right shoulder when hes standing around, he doesn't know why he does it or even notices that he does it. Dick injured his right shoulder years ago and it always needs to be stretched out or it gets stiff.
Yk what dc definitely needs? An ao3 cameo bc have you seen your fan base, there is definitely some rando writing Batman/Brucie fics in Gotham because Batman Is Not beating the sugar baby allegations.
And have you seen the fucking batfam, Jason writes BatBruce fanfics whenever he feels Chaotic and Tim edits them whenever he get pissed at Bruce
Now I really want to see like fandom wars in the DCU but it's just the Batkids fighting for their ship bc they want [blank superhero] as their step parent
Imagine going on Tumblr and it's just like the same 10 blogs threatening each other because they don't agree with who's fucking batman? It'd be hilarious
Twitter fic this Twitter fic that, what about tumblr fics, huh?
Incorrect quote time, Batkids edition
(Has anyone done this scene yet?)
Tim: I have a question about Batman. Batman is a man who dresses up like a bat. Man-bat is a part man, part bat hybrid. Now, if Man-Bat dressed up as a man to fight crime, would he be Man-Batman?
Jason: No, he’d be Bat-Man-Bat.
Steph: But wouldn’t Man-Batman just be a Batman that was bitten by a radioactive man?
Dick: But Batman is a man. You’re talking about a man who would have the powers of a man. That’s just Man-Man.
Tim: Well, isn’t Man-Man just Man
Jason: But what if Man-Man dressed as a bat?
Steph: Well, that’s just Batman.
Jason: No, if a man dresses as a bat, that’s Batman, but if Man-Man dresses as a bat, that’s Batman-Man.
Dick: So does that answer your question?
Tim: Oh, I haven’t asked it yet.
After all these years I'm still surprised I understood this
bruce: old money
damian: ancient money
tim: new money
dick: no money
jason: owes money
Steph : What money
Cass : *peace sign*
DC and especially Chip Zdarsky hates every Robin except Tim.
Steph and Duke is not here because they don't even "exist" 😑🤦♀️
SHE IS THE FUNNIEST PERSON EVER OMG
Crystal: Since when have you started watching crime shows? Steph: How else am I ever gonna see dad? Sorry, mom. Bad joke.
Alfred once wished Bruce would have children much worse than he ever was. He didn't know exactly how much he'd regret his words.... Or maybe not. He loves the kids.
A parent can both love and regret their kids. I know mine do.
Bruce is coparenting literally all this children.
He coparents Dick with Clark.
He coparents Jason and Damian with Talia
He coparents Tim with Lady Shiva
He coparents Steph with her literal mom
He coparents Barbara with her literal dad
He coparents Duke with Luke
Cass is like the only child that he is the sole custodian over lol.
From now on I absolutely headcanon that Bruce has shared custody with all of them but Cass and has to constantly remember pick up and drop off times for 7 different children across 6 coparents.
(Yes I choose to believe Bruce must pick up and drop off his adult children as well fight me)
And this is why Cass is the favorite.
Jason: Dick is so much written by a woman.
Stephanie: Totally.
Dick, the handsome man in touch with his emotions, not afraid to cry, being harrassed because of his butt and overall body, lately known for parenting children this being one of his big trait of personality, SA victim and loves to talk but has too much wrath bottled up: WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN ???
I love how this poll literally agreed that it's the two nepo babies
the realest man is Gotham is this random Blackgate guard who let Steph beat the everloving shit out of her dad for 10 full minutes no questions asked
from Robin #16 (1995)
That's a man who has seen some things and knows some things.
duke thomas sees in shrimp colors and this is why he dresses like a clown in a city where clowns are shot
The dichotomy between Jason dying because he disobeyed Batman and Stephanie dying specifically because she was trying to follow his rules is so good, and yet so under utilized.
