When Nightwing suggests that it might be a good “brotherly bonding” activity for you to investigate a case together…

Red Robin: *pointing to a partially hidden footprint* You should have seen this, Damian, but you were expending too much effort trying to undermine me.

Robin: I assure you that it takes no effort whatsoever.

Dick: It’s like looking for a prize at the bottom of a cereal box!

Damian: Apparently, you and I eat different kinds of cereal.


See, your older brother prefers those sugary ones with cartoony characters on the box. Where do you think he gets all that energy and enthusiasm?

When Batman grounds your older brother…

Robin: *studying a case on the Batcomputer*

Red Hood: *whistles “Call Me Maybe” while putting his newly cleaned guns away*

Robin: -Tt-

Robin: *resumes working*

Red Hood: *slides across the cave on a chair with wheels, making screeching sounds*

Robin: Hrrrn. *clenching his teeth*

Red Hood: Hey, Little D –

Robin: Todd, if I must babysit you, you become a hindrance and I can’t have that.


And that is why Bruce came home to see Jason gagged and tied to the giant Joker card.

Damian: Todd, let it go. I’m faster than you.

Jason: If only there were some way we could settle this once and for all, but how?

Damian: You seriously want to race me? I won the Gotham City Half-Marathon last year!

Jason: Okay, I’m half-scared.

Damian:

Damian: Okay, we do need to do this. I’ll go change.


It’s a trap, Little D.
