i don't usually ship those two but this is cute. Maybe an idea for the future
I love a teen Jason who has a big fat crush on Dick. He sees him and he can't help to feel all nervous and shit, because Dick is just beautiful in every aspect like that. Dick sometimes is a jerk, but he also understands why and can't really blame him, but then Dick is really nice and sweet with him and oh, Jason is so helpless. Jason waits for the next time they'll meet with excitment, because Dick cares for him, because Dick knows how to stop him but also knows how to let him fly. And then he dies. And then he comes back.
He thinks he's already past all that, you know, being all sad and angry at Bruce, at the world, doesn't really give him space to think about anything else. He lives with that, because even if he had the time to give it a thought, he knows he'll never get to anything. And then he sees him again.
He has shorter hair, he is just a little bit taller than what he remembers, but Jason is also taller than him. He's wearing a tight black with blue suit, and his smile even in risky situations is still there, perfect and beautiful as ever. He looks more composed, much more mature but his voice and laugh is a jovial as it used to. He moves in control and grace, with freedom that only the experience grants only a few.
Then they meet eyes.
And God, Jason is so fucking helpless.
this is the baby they insisted was a threat :(
Hear me out: Robin Dick would be the biggest Bruceman supporter and shipper.
This boy hates any of Bruce’s love interest with a passion because then his dad guardian spends less time with him and that’s obviously UNACCEPTABLE, SCANDALOUS even, so when rumours start circulating that Bruce Wayne is in a relationship with the Batman, he jumps right on the wagon.
Reporter, thirsty for a story: Mr Grayson what do you think about the rumours that Bruce Wayne is dating the Batman?
Dick: What do I think about my dads you mean? My very married very taken dads? My very faithful to each other plural dads?
He would fuel the rumours both as Robin and as Dick Grayson, punching criminals for talking bad about Wayne enterprises as Robin (“THAT’S MY STEPDADS COMPANY YOURE TALKING ABOUT!”). He would be on online forums all day talking about how Bruceman is the only Batman ship that makes sense and Doxxing people who disagree.
Bruce is so exasperated because this is happening at a time where only Alfred and Dick know his real identity so he can’t even do anything with ANYONE without making either Bruce Wayne or Batman look unfaithful.
Throw Reporter Clark Kent into the mix who has been sent to scope out the Bruceman story, who Bruce makes the mistake of flirting with at a gala. Both Clark AND dick are scandalised.
Dick, making a scene: HOW COULD YOU! BATMAN IS WAITING FOR YOU AT HOME AND YOURE HERE FLIRTING WITH SOME… SOME REPORTER??
Bruce, sighing: Dick-
Dick, tugging on Bruce’s suit and looking up at him with fake tears in his eyes: Dad, are you and dad getting a divorce? :(
Clark, panicking: NO NO THEYRE NOT GETTING A DIVORCE PLEASE DONT CRY
Meanwhile:
Bruce, crying in the corner: he called me dad
He would even go as far as insisting that Robin is his step sibling
Principal: how do you explain that whenever Robin is injured, Dick fails to show up at school the next day?
Dick: Robin and I are twins :) so when he’s injured I’m injured too and we have to stay home together!!
Bruce, whispering: I’m sorry, they’re not really twins but neither I or Bats have the heart to tell hem
I love this panel from BATMAN/SUPERMAN: WORLD'S FINEST ISSUE #35.
Dick's friends with Arthur and Clark. They casually hang out. They watch games together.
Dick's 17 here. Arthur and Clark are presumably in their early 30's. This is just so brilliant, so Dick Grayson. Love it.
Okay everyone, help me pick an idea to fixate on. I have too many drafts and no self control.
Failed Experiment Kon: the learning modules being uploaded to Kon while he’s being grown fail to work properly. He wakes up early with almost no knowledge of the outside world. Luthor decides to scrap him for parts; enter young justice who vehemently disagree.
Broken Belfry: tensions are high after Bruce returns from the timestream. Tim is sick of being discredited and treated poorly so he leaves to make a new life for himself. Probably Tim/Kon
Black Sheep: All of the Wayne children have reasons to feel they don't belong. A series of vignettes exploring their relationships with their family.
Anything for you: Dick kills the joker and Bruce doesn’t stop him. Jason’s headstone bears the correct name. Bruce refuses to allow the memorial in the cave to remain. The Wayne’s publicly mourn and Tim never wears a dead boys colours. This changes things when Jason returns.
Thank you for sharing this masterpiece 😂😂😂 it’s fantastic
I think we can all agree that this is the theme song for the batfamily
interrupting Jason's saturday afternoon book binge is one way to make him pissy
spot as many easter eggs as you can :>
Everything by Suzukiblu and Clockwayswrites but I'm never gonna be brave enough XD
Do y'all ever read a fic so good that it makes you want to elevate your own craft and also befriend the writer? It's almost like, "Hi! You write so well that you've inspired me to embark on a creative training arc. Also, can I yell about the character in your dms because you get it?"
You’re welcome
nothing scarier than being a fan of a fic and then becoming mutuals with the author. like hi shakespeare. big fan of your fake dating au
