At the Wayne Manor attic…

Dick: *dramatically walks out from behind a dusty, old cabinet wearing his 80’s Nightwing suit*

Jason: *clears his throat loudly*

Tim: *standing absolutely still but with shoulders shaking*

Damian: *jaw drop*

Duke: *eyes wide, covering his mouth*

Dick: You guys think I’m some sort of a joke!

Jason, Tim, Damian, and Duke: *break into a fit of laughter*

Jason: *wiping tears off his eyes* This isn’t disproving that theory.

Mornings at the Manor…

Duke: *nervously looks over his shoulder at Bruce pulling a sneering Damian by the scruff of the neck, Dick restraining a furious Tim via bear hug, Alfred telling Jason to get down from the kitchen counter, Cass ushering the family pets to safety, and the refrigerator on fire*

Duke: *sips chocolate milk, then looks straight into the Snapchat camera*

Duke: Jason attacked the counter with a fire axe and is still only the second craziest person in the kitchen.

Mornings at the Manor…

Bruce: *e-mailing the Justice League while discussing Wayne Tech plans with Lucius on the phone*

Dick: *stealthily picking blueberries off the pancakes on the serving tray while dangling upside down from the ceiling*

Alfred: *slapping Dick’s hand away while preparing Tim’s morning espresso shots*

Jason: *holding up a bag of catfood so it’s out of Damian’s reach*

Damian: *on his tippy toes trying to reach it while muttering censor-worthy threats to Jason*

Tim: *eyelids drooping and eyes red, wiping dried-up slobber off his face* How long was I out? Is Napster still a thing?

Who’s gonna tell him?

When you’ve been hopped up on caffeine for way too long… 

The Batfamily: *watching Cassandra’s ballet recital at the Gotham City Opera House* 

Tim: This is amazing! And possibly in real time!


In which Jason and Damian get permission from Dick to tranquilize their brother. 

In the middle of a firefight and they’re horribly outnumbered…

Red Hood: What do you want me to do? *cocks both guns*

Robin: Stay alive, Todd… or don’t!

Red Hood: I’m on it! *jumps into the fray*


*shakes head* Robins.   

Bruce: I scolded Damian today, so according to – *reads smudged writing on his palm* — “The Robin Bylaws”, I now have to grant him three wishes.

Alfred:


Parenting. Comes easy, it does not. 


Dick drafted the original bylaws, by the way. Jason, Tim, and Damian merely perfected them.

Brainstorming with your brothers, part 2… 

Red Robin: *sighs*

Red Robin: Maybe we should brainstorm fundraising ideas that aren’t bake sales – *glares at Red Hood*

Red Robin: – or zoos where the humans are in cages and the animals come to visit. *glares at Robin* 


In which you desperately need money to have the Batmobile repaired before Batman comes back from space and finds out that y’all took it for a joyride.
