[Batman, on a call with Superman discussing the latest Gotham Mayhem]
Clark: I just think that we could sort this out faster if you let us help out.
Bruce: I work alone, you know that.
Tim suddenly appears over his shoulder and drops a stack of case files on the desk: Hey Dad, I need some help with these. I need DNA samples and I’m banned from the mortuary, so could you take these in? Here’s a list of what I need.
Bruce: Where did-? Nevermind, sure, yes, I can do that.
[The door to the Batcave opens]
Damian: Father! My Robin uniform is riddled with bullet holes and I require assistance using the proper mending technique.
Bruce: Oh, erm. Don’t worry about it, we’ll just get you a new one.
Damian: Nonsense, we shall fix it. It is perfectly good. [holds up the tatters] Practically new.
[Hanger door opens]
Jason walks in with Dick over his shoulder, blood actively dripping onto the cave floor: Hey Brucie, Bigbird needs stitches. Where’s the sewing shit again?
Bruce: Third cabinet on the second shelf down. And I’ll tell Alfred to bring down something sweet for the blood loss.
Jason: Thanks. Tell him not to bring grape juice this time, that stuff tastes like ass.
Dick, deliriously: Hi Uncle Clark!
Clark: Hi Dick. [Turns back to Bruce] What was that about working alone?
Dick, yelling as he’s being carried away: Oooohh you just got GOT
The sky outside looked fine now but a light rain was falling. It was to turn into a storm later on which was why Jerry was laying beside and a bit behind Damian while Titus closed his eyes, paws under his head. The other animals that weren’t housebroken were safe and sound but Jerry hated storms.
Tim squinted as he played a game on his phone. Damian looked over but pretended to be sketching Alfred who laying between his legs. Both knew that he was really sketching Tim but ignored it. They were waiting for Duke to come home from running to the store to grab snacks for the movie marathon they were having.
Alfred had snacks but all were craving unhealthy snacks so Duke went to get some. Alfred only kept the best and healthiest (he used to have the unhealthy snacks around but learned when Dick joined the family) in the world or made it so they all ran out when wanting the “bad snacks”. The butler knew but let it go because the children never took advantage of him letting them have the snacks (the one time Dick and Jason did Alfred refused to give them dessert for a whole month. They learned and taught the others.). Bruce, who had tried to warn his two oldest boys at the time, was going to join the trio later on. All knew that the rest of the family would trickle in. Whether it be before the first movie or the end of it no one knew for sure.
For now though Tim and Damian were relaxing as they waited.
- The batfam have their own language of chirps, trills, tweets, and whistles, and they use it in front of other ppl (civilians, the jla, whatever) and the other ppl go “what the actual fuck”
- Bruce throwing the batarang at Jason Todd’s neck actually Does Damage™, and eventually the other members of the family find out and lose their shit
- “How many kids do you HAVE??” -The entire Justice League
- Jason going to Titans Tower, seeing Tim, saying “is anyone gonna parent that” and then not waiting for an answer.
- Literal Toddler Tim Drake informing the Batfamily that yes he knows everyone’s identity, and really if you didn’t want people to figure it out you should stop showing off your extremely niche skills during patrols Nightwing.
- “Dude your son is a crime boss.” “Ex-crime boss :/”
- A Batfamily member hearing someone talk about their civilian identity (bc, yknow,, they’re famous) and just having to Deal With It because what the fuck else are they supposed to do??
- The Justice League hearing about Batman and assuming he (& his family) are demons or vampires or some other cryptid, and then meeting him and finding out he’s just Some Guy.
- The batfamily learning the origin of the name Robin
- The Justice League meeting the Batfamily and specifically learning who Red Hood is, and one of the heroes nervously asks “Didn’t the second Robin.. die?” and Jason just goes “yeah lol”
Got any recommendations for fic with these tropes?
I am SO GLAD YOU ASKED. I apologize for not getting every single trope in this list, and also having only one for a couple, I threw this list together semi-quickly :)
