When your adoptive son gets insecure…

Bruce: Dick, I wasn’t prepared to raise a kid like you. There’s no manual on how to raise a child who just lost both his parents. If there were, I would have read it a hundred times, cover-to-cover, because I loved you from the moment you stepped into the Manor. I just didn’t know how to show you.


… So you just encouraged him to fight crime alongside you? (Also, be careful, Batman. Declarations of love to Nightwing earn you the biggest tackle-hugs.)   

If there was a manual there would’ve been no batman because Alfred would’ve read that FUCKING BOOK FOR INSIGHT

And Alfred’s like, “Fret not, Master Bruce. I wrote one as you were growing up”, then drops a six-inch-thick journal by the Batcomputer. A second volume includes his time with Dick, Jason, and Tim, and a third (and special) one, with Damian.  

After giving Batman a status update…

Nightwing [on the Comm Link]: I’d take my comms out, too, if I were you. He sounded mad.

Red Hood: *click*

Red Robin: *click*

Robin: -Tt- *click*


Wow. You boys didn’t even give it a second thought.

Mission debriefing…

Batman: *scrolling through the previous night’s news headlines on the Batcomputer*

Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, and Robin:

Batman: *sighs*

Red Hood: What could we do? It’s not like we could just walk into a criminal enterprise and start looking around.

Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, and Robin: *erupt in obnoxious laughter*


Keep your father’s white hairs coming, boys. Keep ‘em coming.

When your brotherly instincts kick in…

Tim: I guess that’s why I want to protect the little guy, too.

Jason: Well, you don’t get any more little than Damian.


Not that Robin needs it, but that’s awfully sweet of you, boys. (Maybe just don’t let him hear you talking about him.)

When you find an unexpected guest in your youngest brother’s room at the Manor…

Red Hood: *slumped on the couch in Damian’s room* He’s eleven. I’m babysitting. I can’t leave him alone.

Tim: You were scared to travel at night by yourself.

Red Hood: Shouldn’t you be sleeping?


Well, if there were a billion-dollar contract out for your capture, wouldn’t you be?
