Batkids - Blog Posts
My personal order:
Dick- the Heir, the First
Jason- The Lost Son, The Returned
Tim- The Favored, The Savior(because Tim saved B from himself)
Damian- The Blood Son, The Baby
If chaos was personified I think it would be Damian. Tiny child filled with rage and equipped with far too many weapons.
They look SO CUTE altogether!!
I love this au so much. Bats on thrones makes me so happy.
Little Snippets #4
Danny knew he had screwed up and that he was going to be in so much trouble as he flew hurriedly through the streets of Gotham.
"Old man is going to be so pissed...." he muttered as he zigzagged through the buildings. He had just gotten back from a side mission with Clockwork when he learned that one of their villains had gotten their hands on portal technology. Not his parents mind you, no one could read their chicken scratch besides Danny or Jazz. No but Vlad's, who was supposed to be a redeemed man but apparently some of his inventions still managed to get onto the black market.
Danny hat been in the Ghost Zone when they had that found out and the old man pinged him to get back sooner. And oh boy was Danny in for a portal mess when he got back to Gotham. He instantly went out to help the old man. Batman was out on his own and Danny had been trying to give him support when he got tangled up and ended up thrown through a portal.
Yeah, he knew his the old man would give him a good lecture, like the day he had gotten taken under the other mans wing. So now after Danny finally made his way back to Gotham he flew through the streets in search of the old man, it looked like the portal problem had resolved while he was trying to find his way back but still Danny had a weird feeling about Gotham now.
"OLD MAN!" He yelled as he spied Batman on top of a building. Grinning brightly he came to an stop directly in front of the other waving happily. "Sorry it took so long but I am back and in one piece! No injuries! See!"
Danny grinned brightly despite not getting an instant answer or lecture back. Though he paused when he noticed the kid in colourful clothing and others like one with a red face covering helmet, one themed in blue and one in black and red. "Did you get help from others? And I thought you didn't like kid playing hero?"
He tilted his head confused as he studied Batman before his eyes widened. "Hey, since when is your insignia not red...?"
It was in that moment that Danny realized he messed up big time somehow and slipped up as he uttered his next words. "You're not old man Thomas...?"
Bruce secretly went back to med school and just never told anyone. He didn’t see the point, it’s lot like he’s an active doctor. But he does have the qualifications
After Tim took over most of the CEO duties for Wayne Industries, Bruce had a lot of free time during the day. A few public appearances once or twice each week and doing his Batman duties just wasn’t enough to keep him entertained
His brain moves a million miles a minute. He could snoop around and see if his kids needed any help on some of their cases, but he really doesn’t need them pissed off at him
So, why not go back to school? Boom, easy as pie. Go to classes during the day, study in the afternoons. Before he knew it, his diploma had arrived in the mail
He contemplated taking a picture of it and posting it on a social media app, but eh. Would anyone even care?
Anytime his kids make a joke about him being a college drop out or Alfred makes a snide comment about not finishing school, Bruce fantasizes about showing them his degree and seeing the embarrassment on their faces
But he doesn’t, cause it honestly doesn’t matter that much to him. School has always and will always be easy for him. He just didn’t have the drive or will to complete it the first time around
It makes it easier to help out his boys when they get injured on patrol. If Alfred’s preoccupied without another person or maybe just not there at all, Bruce can handle it easily
It’s not like he couldn’t before, obviously, he’s Batman. He was perfectly medically trained before he got his degree, now it’s legal. That’s the only thing that’s changed
How small must the world be for both Bruce and Tim to witness John and Mary Grayson's deaths
Or for 10-year-old Duke to crack the Riddler's puzzle before Batman swoops in and saves the day, long before his powers came into play
Or for Sheila Haywood to leave her son only to end up assisting his killer a decade and a half later
Not to mention the popular fanon concept of Jason knowing baby Damian in the League of Assassins
Now imagine how many other invisible strings could've tied them together
Like what if Tim and Jason went to the same school when Jason was Robin but all they shared was the occasional bump and "excuse me" in the busy halls
Or what if Babs was a tutor and helped an elementary-aged Steph finally understand her homework only for the Browns to cancel after a couple sessions because they couldn't afford it
What if the first person to buy Cass a hot meal was Kate on one of her travels
What if Alfred witnessed young Selina shoplifting groceries but chose to turn a blind eye
What if Jason lived on the same streets as the Row siblings and gave little Harper tips on how to use tools and defend her brother
What if Steph and Duke shared the same school bus, only he sat in the front while she was toward the back
What if the first person to teach Tim how to tie his shoes was Bruce at a gala because Jack and Janet were busy talking to someone important
What if Bette did a DNA test for fun and found a connection in Nanda Parbat but just assumed the results was faulty because she knew her whole family, right?
What if 8-year-old Dick, the day before his parents died, stayed at a cheap hotel near Crime Alley and found 4-year-old Jason wandering alone and said, "I'll be your big brother for tonight"
What if the universe knew they were made for each other and wouldn't rest until they realized it too
I feel like there are 10 flavors of shippers in this fandom
- no you can’t ship that ship?? It’s so problematic (there is a 2 year age gap)
- yeah Bruce prolly fucks his kids who also fuck each other
- why are you shipping fanon?? Why does everything have to be gay?? Enough with the gay stuff
- problematic non incest ships (slade Wilson and Dick, Talia and Jason, Tim and Ra’s) I call this one the Freud would sell his soul to interview you tier
- stuck on one ship that hasn’t been canon in years or only happened in a tv show or else world story
- Batkids x miraculous ladybug or Danny phantom
- why love triangle when they can all hold hands (everything is a polycule)
-why love triangle when the women can just date each other and abandon the mediocre man (gayyay subgenre exists where the women leave their boyfriends to date each other and then the boyfriends also date each other)
- quietly ships current canon and lives their lives
-all queer ships, canon! Fanon! Who cares? Two bisexuals of opposite genders is fine but it has to have pizzaz
Tag yourself or add anything that I missed!
Damian: Hey, Grayson?
Dick: What do you need?
Damian: Well, some kids were picking on me today, and not thinking about it, I told Todd.
Dick: Go on...
Damian: He left. I'm worried that he's going to go beat them up or something. Can you go stop him?
Dick: Jason won't hit a child.
Damian: He won't?
Dick: Never.
Damian:

They mean so much to me
