That one time – one time – Bruce and Talia tried to co-parent Damian…
Bruce: Well, I think stress is what leads to trouble. You know, the kind you put on Damian, even when he gets an A?
Talia: Minus. And an A gets him an extra hour of sleep. He knows that.

Mornings at the Manor…
Dick: *scouring cabinets for the last box of Lucky Charms*
Jason: *sipping tea*
Tim: *working on his laptop, half a waffle hanging from his mouth*
Damian: *enters the kitchen looking solemn*
Damian: Drake. I need you to teach me how to be… a douchebag.
Dick and Jason:
Tim:
Tim: Let’s get started.
Tim and Damian: *walk out of the kitchen*
Jason: What is happening in the world?
Jason: Did I tell you I got pepper-sprayed today?
Tim: You say that like it’s a good thing.

And that was just for entering Damian’s room.
Getting stranded up in the Himalayan Mountains while on a mission be like…
Red Robin: Look, I’m sure we’re not the only ones who need to be rescued. Plus, things could be a lot worse.
Red Hood: Yeah, how’s that?
Red Robin: We could be stuck here with Damian.
Damian [to Bruce]: Father, I have this theory that Drake purposely installs complicated technology so he has a reason to talk to me like I’m a child.
Tim [about Damian]: Okay, so after a quick scan of his Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest and Instagram, this is what I know –
Jason: Privacy is dead?
When your youngest brother tells you to stay put by the Batmobile as he sneaks into one of the Joker’s lairs…
Red Hood: What am I supposed to do out here?
Robin: Why don’t you go meditate on the poor life decisions you’ve made?
Trying to comfort your younger brother before your return to Blüdhaven be like…
Dick: There comes a time when big brothers leave the nest, Damian.
So, wow, thank you…
I just saw how many followers this blog has as of today, and I’m in awe.
I have all those brilliant film, TV, and song writers who came up with such amusing, deep, or iconic lines to thank. I’m really just borrowing their work and creating a context around them based on comic canon (and, occasionally, my own headcanons). It won’t always be accurate, but the point is to make it fun and imaginable.
I see a quote, and 90% of the time, I’ll instantly have a character in mind to “speak” it and a situation in which the conversation could happen. That’s how rich the DC Universe is. Years and years of material to draw inspiration from.
I do re-word some dialogue to fit the context I want (or because the grammar seems uncomfortably off to me).
I love the slice-of-life kind of things, and I do imagine that even superheroes have very mundane, domestic (even silly) moments that give them joy in between those of chaos and conflict.
So, for those of you who follow because you’re just as amused, inspired, and fangirl-y as I am, thanks for dropping by!
(A shout out to those who support my other Tumblr blog, a-wayne-at-heart, as well!)
Why Dick is Damian’s favorite older brother…
Tim [about Damian]: In a way, I think we learned more from him than he learned from us.
Jason: Well, obviously. Because we taught him nothing.
