im obsessed with the difference between the Wayne family and the Kent family. like i can imagine Clark and Bruce working on some kind of case at the watchtower when Kon storms in angrily talking about how Jon won’t stop whining to play games on his phone and it’s really getting on his nerves and Clark needs to go and tell him off bcs he won’t listen to Kon, and Clark sighs before turning to Bruce with an eye-roll like ‘kids amiright?’ and then they hear a far off scream from Dick on the other end of the watchtower that’s like ‘BRUCE JASON KEEPS DRESSING UP AS NIGHTWING AND KILLING PEOPLE IN BLUDHAVEN AND NOW IM BEING INVESTIGATED FOR FUCKING MURDER AGAIN!’ followed by an evil Jason-like cackle and a crash, and Bruce just grunts and stands up to go investigate with a chuckle, returning Clark’s look like ‘oh don’t i know it haha’ as if the two are in any way comparable and Clark isn’t staring at him like his whole family is insane
I think more people need to play around with Damian's speech. Don't get me wrong, I love the antiquated Victorian child style of speech, but also he's a teenager that swears plenty in the comics. We really need more scenes like:
Damian: Father, I regret to inform you that I have been assigned in-school suspension for the next three days.
Bruce: What, why?!
Damian: My classmate Kevin was disparaging a female classmate for turning him down, so I called him 'a rizz-less, basic-ass neckbeard bitch' and said I was going to fuck his mom and give her a son she'd actually love.
Bruce: *is completely speechless*
Damian: That is all I needed to tell you. If you will excuse me, I have homework to complete before dinner and patrol.
Damian: Father is going to curse you out, so I’ll ask. Can we have the scroll?
Ra’s Al Ghul: No.
Damian (raising his voice in a high-pitched, innocent tone): Please!
Ra’s (usual strict voice until he sees his grandson's face): No—why are you looking at me like that?
Damian faked a sniffle, pouring on the sad puppy dog eyes and lip quiver. The usually fearless and intimidating Ra's struggled to maintain his composure, covering his mouth to hide his amusement.
Ra’s: Stop it! Don’t pull that crap on me!
Damian (laying on the sweet kid tone): But grandfather... I love you.
Ra’s (trembling): Fine! You can have the scroll! Just quit the act!
Damian immediately returned to his usual self, sporting a smug smile.
Damian: Thank you! We’ll wait here while you retrieve it.
Ra’s groaned and walked off to fetch the magic scroll in question as Batman approached his son.
Batman: What did you say?
Damian: I used manipulation and reminded him I’m his only grandchild... along with puppy dog eyes.
Batman chuckled, shaking his head with pride at his son’s cleverness.
Oracle (dazed): Okay, like, you just take a turn left and... ummmmm... got it?
Red Hood (on comms): That was a completed sentence.
Oracle (pushing her fingers together to see an image): It wasn't was it? I'm hungry. Let me get up. Oh, I can’t stand!
Oracle cackled while keeping her finger pressed on the communication button, allowing everyone on patrol to hear her.
Spoiler: Oh God, she's been Jokerized! Oracle, hang in there!
Nightwing: Oracle, did you buy those brownies after I told you it’d be a bad idea?
Oracle (balancing a pen on her finger): Yeppers, and I ate both bars! And I feel gooood! YEAH!
Red Hood (figuring out what was in the brownies): Oh my God, you ate two! You’re not coming down from that high for a while.
Oracle: Then I will ride the wave! Weeee!
Oracle spun in her wheelchair while cackling. Harper looked up from her tablet, laughing softly as she prepared to take over the controls since Barbara was definitely sitting this one out.
Nightwing: I told you those brownies weren’t worth it!
Oracle: You’re not my man; you can’t tell me what to do!
Robin (Damian): I’m confused about what brownies she ate that are making her this stupid.
Batman: Can someone take her off the computer?!
Oracle: You’re not my supervisor, you unsalted oatmeal, glutton for punishment, Star Wars prequel enjoying ninny!
The others went silent as Oracle giggled while resting her head on the desk.
Batman (clenching his teeth): Take her off the comms or I'm about to say a whole lot of mean things.
Harper: All right, just going to take over for ya, pal. Just eat the Cheetos I brought.
Oracle: Awesome!
Oracle rolled over to a small table she had set up while Harper took over.
Harper: She should be fine in a few hours and probably regret a lot of what she’s done. I think the brownies she bought were filled with a lot more than cannabis. This is Gotham, so I don't doubt it.
Robin: Oh, she’s intoxicated! Just give her some water and a toy, that’s how we handle Father.
Batman: You do what now?
Another one of my crack ideas of IronDad is Tony being OBSESSED with the idea of being a father, while Peter only sees him as a mentor
So things like this happen:
Tony: You still need a father for something, right?
Tony: Learn to ride a bike? swim? play baseball!? I don't know how to play baseball but- I can learn to teach you!
Peter: Mr. Stark, is there something you wanted to tell me?...
He acts exactly like a father should, he worries if he's eating right, he tells him to clean his room, teaches him how to behave at parties and takes him to places to go out with friends
He also has fatherly habits, making stupid jokes like "Hey Hunger, I'm a Dad!" shits
You know when you tell your dad that you liked some snack he bought for you and the next day he shows up with 30 packages of that snack?
Tony SOOOOOO do that!
One day the Avengers arrived home and the first thing they saw was Tony with 5 boxes of cherry soda talking to Peter like:
Tony: You said you liked that cherry soda?
Peter: YES, I LIKE IT, BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH MR. STARK!
Tony: I thought with your super metabolism this would be nothing?
Peter: THIS IS NOT THE POINT MR. STARK - wait, this is only sold at Starbucks freshly made, how did you buy this in cans!?
Tony: Oh yeah, uh, about that... I bought Starbucks, now it's StarkBucks 👍
Peter:... ANTHONY EDWARD STARK!!!!!!
*Just a few steps away*
Steve: It couldn't be more obvious
All other avengers: Yep
Rhode: And when I asked him to buy me ONE beer he said no...
Clark: Bruce are you okay?? Your heartbeat is going crazy do I need to call someone?
Bruce: hm (negative)
Clark: Bruce how long has it been since you slept
Bruce: hn (neutral)
Clark, eyes narrowed: Bruce.
Bruce: 2
Clark: Two, what? Two days?
Bruce: hm….. (negativ)
Clark: TWO WEEKS?
Bruce:
Clark: HOW ARE YOU EVEN STILL ALIVE
Bruce: I’m not alive. I’m Batman
Clark:
The batfam trauma candy salad would go absolutely insane.
Dick: Hi. I'm Dick Grayson and when I was 8 I watched my parents fall to their death in front of me, then I had to move away from everything I love and spend the rest of my life in some weird American city. And I brought the sour gummy worms.
Jason: This is so stupid- my mother used to kick me out when he drug dealer would come over so I didn't see her spending our very small amount of money on drugs.
Steph *off screen*: what did you bring?
Jason: nerds.
Cass: I was raised to be a weapon, a murderer. I brought peach rings.
Steph: I'm Steph and My dad was an alcoholic who thought he could go head to head with batman and outdo the riddler. And I brought Reese's pieces.
Tim: I'm Timothy Drake Wayne and I had left the house to try and find some guy before he killed my dad, just for him to kill my dad when I was gone. I brought sour rainbow strips.
Duke: My parents are in a mental ward, high on joker toxin. No one knows if they'll ever get better. And I got m&m's.
Damian: I am a highly trained assassin and-
Steph: cut. Cut. Damian. Civilian identities. Ok. Restart.
Damian: My mother randomly dropped me on some weird man's doorstep when I was ten. I brought rock candy.
Batkids calling Bruce when they need him.
Dick gets arrested for underage drinking call my dad now he's not in the slightest scared but he wants his dad. Bruce who already got bail done and is wrapping Dick in a blanket.
Jason crashes a car already on the phone with Bruce who is speeding to him.
Tim is falling asleep at the office and wants to go home dad please pick me up. Waking up tucked in Bruce's bed.
Damian gets in a fight at school you call my father right now. He suspended but Bruce hugs him on the way out.
Kids who aren't afraid to call Dad. He wont be mad he wants them to call. To know he will drop everything to get to his boys. Scared birds shouting for the big bad bat and he comes running.
it's beginning to get concerning, dad
Damian getting pissed off at Bruce shortly after coming to the manor and in a fit of childish anger yells ‘you can’t tell me what to do, YOU AREN’T MY FATHER!’
what he meant was in an emotional sense, because he didn’t know the man for the first decade of his life, but paranoid-Bruce-Wayne immediately starts to wonder if Talia’s fucking with him in some way. Damian, still pissed off and wanting to make Bruce suffer in any way he can, takes all the information he has at his disposal regarding his mother and father and decides in a brilliant moment of childish stupidity to do this:
Damian: no, you are not my father. but being as my biological father trained under you, mother decided you would still be the best option to guide me.
Bruce, eyeing Dick: i TRAINED your father?
Dick, incredulously: I DIDN’T-!?!
Damian: No. Jason Todd however, after he was revived via Lazarus Pit, did.
Bruce:
Dick:
Tim, quietly from the sidelines, popcorn in hand: holy shit…
~later~
Damian, climbing through the window of Jason’s safe house: Ahki! three things. one, i told father, Grayson, and Drake that you are alive-
Jason, sat with a mouthful of pasta: wh-
Damian: -two, i told them your identity as the Red Hood, and three, i told them you are my biological father.
Jason:
Jason:
Jason: why would you-
Damian: i was mad and impulsive.
Jason:
Jason, taking a deep breath: well that tracks if we’re pretending you’re my kid.
Damian: i knew i could count on you.
Jason: to freak those idiots out? always.
