One Of My Least Favorite Things To Think About Simply Because It Hurts Not Because It's Objectively A

One of my least favorite things to think about simply because it hurts not because it's objectively a bad premise —is Bruce just gradually showing up less?

When he gets Dick he is so young, scared of messing up, his study bookcase full of parenting books. The result is that he shows up—for every mathelete meeting or parent teacher day or silly outing to the mall. Then Jason enters his life— its definitely a learning curve and while he isn't there for every event he still shows up, he tries to take Jason to the library on Saturday and show up to school debate but sometimes Alfred or Babs will go in his place. Tim is another story— he doesn't have to show up, Tim never asks, and Bruce never offers.

And Damian, well, Damian has Dick.

Sometimes, his two oldest sons feel a stab of something, not exactly nostalgia—but something a bit more bitter. They look at the tough lines around his mouth and the set in his brow and wonder when Bruce started to be less Bruce and More Batman.

Every member of the batfamily owns a shitty old Nokia phone.

They all dropped their much more expensive modern-day phones from a few stories up mid Vigilante-ing at least once and now they're no longer allowed to have their Good Phones on their person during crime fighting.

At least one thug has been domed in the back of the head by a Nokia lol

im obsessed with the idea that gothamites 100% know who all the batkids are, like “ for sure Dick Grayson is nightwing #thebuttsmatch” and they figured out all their identities and who it correlates to, “ofc the newest robin with all the swords is Damian Wayne!!” but they refuse to even consider Bruce and The Batman being the same guy. it just doesn’t make sense?? Brucie Wayne, dressing up as a bat and calling himself vengeance???? as if???? also he’s from bristol???? can’t possibly be Brucie. Like they genuinely believe that Bruce is the father to a whole gaggle of themed vigilantes and just doesn’t know it. Anytime his kids disappear during a gala, he gets a bunch of pitiful looks and he can’t leave bc everyone’s looking at him now??

This actually works into a lot of ppls theories that Brucie is The Batman’s sugar daddy, bc clearly they’re together and co parenting the batkids??

Imagine: Bruce gets the ability to see people's kill counts

He's not surprised to see that Damian's and Jason's are pretty high.

He's not surprised to see that Dick's is pretty low, for a vigilante.

He's shocked to see that Tim's is way higher than he'd thought (he would be asking about that later...).

He faints when he sees Alfred's.
