Jason: We’re going to start it in the morning?!
On the last day of March, thirty minutes before midnight…
Somewhere on the Manor grounds…
Robin [on the Comm Link]: *sounds of rustling leaves and scraping metals in the background* You’re going down, Todd. I’m going to fool you!
Red Hood: *stuffing a sack with batarangs and Damian’s underwear* You talk better than you fool, kid.
Robin [on the Comm Link]: Oh, I will fool you up real nice.
Red Hood: You couldn’t fool your cleverest brother on the fooling-est day of your life if you had an electrified fooling machine.

When Batman’s sons come over to your city and you hear about it at work…
Lois: Hey, Smallville. There are a few developments. You might want to make some room on the front page.

Robin: *sneaking out of the Manor at midnight*
Jason: *turns a lamp on*
Jason: *sitting in the dark with his legs crossed and a novel on his lap* Where are you going, Brat?
Robin: -Tt-
Robin: I don’t know.
Jason: When will you be home?
Robin: I’m not sure.
Jason: Where are you going?
Robin: You already asked me that, Todd!
Jason: Will you bring me back something?

This is why you’re secretly Dami’s favorite older brother sometimes, Jay.
Batman’s twilight years be like…
Tim: Bruce, you shouldn’t wear glasses that weren’t prescribed for you.

Tim: Gimme those!

Damian: Todd, I’m starting to worry about Father.
Jason: Well, I know he seems to get more broody ever year, but lately he’s plateaued.
