I love Hardison's expression in this. 😂

Leverage 4x15- "The Lonely Hearts Job"

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

It's okay, I wanted to cry myself to sleep tonight. 😭😭

When Jason first gets to sit down on the passenger seat of the car with Bruce, as a civilian, Bruce doesn't notice it instantly, but his son's legs don't quite reach the bottom of the car — they are a tad shorter. He is a tad shorter. Then, in the middle of their road, a police car pulls them up, and the officer stares at the pair of clueless father and son and bursts out in the laughter.

"Sir... Mister Wayne, your son can not sit there. He needs to be back and at a special seat for children."

Bruce blinks.

"Oh, he is not— Jason is too old for that."

"I am sorry. It is required by the height, not age."

Bruce turns around to face flustered, embarrassed Jason, who always insists that he is old enough for basically anything in this world, and he can't help it. He smiles, completely overwhelmed by this whole thing.

His baby son.

"Alright, thanks for warning. We will do just that."

As soon as the police are out of the picture, Jason bursts out in the string of complaints, whines, and genuinely distressed remarks about how he is not a child, never will be, and it is so stupid.

Bruce smiles all the ride back.

They still order him a child seat and he hates it.

The Batmobile from the other side doesn't have it, and they don't need it to.

Still, much later, when Bruce — Batman — opens the door, for the first time since Jason became Robin, he tries to settle his son on the backseat, not a passenger one. He cradles him to his chest before gently putting him on the leather couch. Jason's body is small and fragile, though this time his feet reach the bottom of the car. His head is lolling a little bit, and it takes two attempts from Bruce to prop it properly.

He ignores the blood that instantly spoils the car.

"My baby son," he murmurs softly, reaching to pat his curls. "My sweet baby."

This time, Jason holds no complaints. His bloodied lips with blooming bruises are pressed in a thin line, and Bruce closes his eyes, trying to ignore his cold, dead eyes.

He closes the door of the car and sniffles as his nostrils get scorched from the odour of the burning down warehouse on the background.

It is April 27th.

And his son is dead.

Damian on patrol one night when he sees Red Hood and realises Jason followed him to Gotham and is absolutely going to be the most annoying older brother he can be despite refusing to reconcile with anyone else in the family and actively becoming a crime lord in the background

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

Nightwing: Uh the the- what's the word! *Says something in Romani.*

Batkids: *Stops everything to help Dick figure it out.*

Superman: It's sweet you guys are helping him but we are currently negotiating an alien invasion.

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

Stupid Story Idea;

Batfamily meets Justice League;

Instead of Jason being taken by the Justice League, it's Steph, Cass, and Duke- Let's say by rookie JL. (Nightwing has been a part of the JL for a while.) And they interrogate them, but can't get anything out of them, so they separate them. Which makes Steph and Duke mad- because Cass is mute (right?), and they still can't get anything out of them.

So, they call Nightwing because the high-ranking members are on an off-world mission. Nightwing, upset already because of his missing siblings, now having to go to the Watchtower. So he brings his brothers that haven't been kidnapped (Dick and Jason are in charge, under Alfred of course.) And they get livid seeing their family being interrogated and Dick tries to get them free, but nobody is budging until the members come back.

By the time they do, the Watchtower is in chaos.

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

☆ Also, Chaos hacking into one of their jobs so that Harry and Breanna can meet him.

Since it is two weeks until the Leverage Redemption season three drop, here are a few things I want from the new season:

☆ Eliot and Breanna hug

☆ Parker and Hardison and a spiderman kiss

☆ Harry being an absolute nerd (affectionate)

☆ Eliot not being in pain all the time (unrealistic, I know)

☆ Breanna picking a college (bonus points if it's one Hardison hates for a petty reason)

☆ Sterling shows up, Breanna kicks him in the nads, and Eliot cheers "That's my girl!"

In which Damian isn't very fond of Tim, but they lowkey (highkey) start getting closer because he finds out Tim has fed and named a bunch of street cats around his apartment. Their bond is held together by a bunch of ratty old cats.

Tim, opening the door: "Damian? What're you doing here?"

Damian: "I request Michael's location."

Tim: "He should be sitting on the fire escape two floors down."

Damian, already pushing his way into the apartment and to the window: "Thank you Drake!"

Tim will occasionally see Damian outside his building just sitting in a pile of cats- and sometimes even Jerry the racoon- and takes pictures to send to the boy later. He makes sure to update him with what's going on with the cats.

Damian, talking on the phone: "Yes, yes, I see. And Persephone? She is well?"

Dick: "Dami, who are you talking to at" *Checks watch* "11pm? You should be asleep right no-"

Damian, turning to him and holding up a finger: "Shush, Grayson." *Turns back* "Did Jerry come by? And what ever happened to Beatrice's eye?"

Dick: 'Who does he even talk to besides Bruce and I?? When did he get friends? When did he get so caring of them? Why am I so out of the loop??'

Later, Dick snoops through his room and finds a bunch of pictures with him surrounded by ugly cats and sometimes raccoon, and is familiar with the building they're taken at. He immediately face palms because that makes perfect sense.

How fandom portrays Tim's first months as Robin:

Tim: Batman, it's time for your anti-depressants.

Bruce: *grumbles*

Tim: Speak louder.

Bruce: Go away Jason.

Tim: It's Tim, actually.

Bruce: GO AWAY.

How it actually was in the Batman comics:

Tim: How did my report card got on your fridge?

Bruce: I took a look at your grades, and they were great, why? Except for chemistry. Maybe you should not go out as Robin to focus on school.

Tim: Not happening. I'm not falling for that.

Bruce: Well, if you are really going to do this, we should add bubble wrap to the suit.

Tim: I'm not made of glass.

Bruce: Are you sure about that? By the way, do you eat enough? ALFRED, can you cook something for Tim? He needs some food.

Tim: I'm fine Bruce!

Bruce: Are you sure? Do you want a hug? If you want a hug, you can ask. I can have Alfred make some hot chocolate.

Tim: You realize I have parents, rights?

Bruce: I don't see them in this room.

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

He has no idea where the kid came from...

Clark: But-

Dick: a certifiable baby

Damian: I hate you

Dick: you would hate me more if you stunted your growth and ended up Tim sized

Tim: HEY!

Damian: this is true… apologies Richard

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

This was the kid's plan all along.

Bruce: As you all know, this mission is going to be dangerous so I want you guys to pair up. Whoever’s left over will go with me.

Sounds of people shuffling around the room followed by an awkward silence

Jason (only one standing alone without a teammate): …

Jason: Wooooow do I really scare you guys that much? You guys are really going to stick me with that old fart?

Dick: Sorry, Jason. I promised Damian I’d team with him this time.

Damian: Yes. Last time I did a mission with you Todd, you threw me off a building.

Steph: Cassie and I have been dyyyyying to work together for the longest time and this is the first time our schedules have aligned for long enough to do it.

Cass: Nods in agreement Tim: Last time we worked together you called me a nerd the whole time, completely disregard the plan and almost got us both killed.

Duke: I am genuinely just scared of you.

Jason: … You know, all pretty valid points. Looks like it’s you and me, old man.

Bruce *pinching his brow*: I knew this was a bad idea…

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

“so what’s your favorite batfam trope?”

“bruce calling his kids sweetheart/sweetie/baby/any petname”

“what—“

Dick, accidentally scraping his knee: ow

Dick, a 30 year old man:

Dick, tearing up: no…

Cass: 😐

Cass: *period cramp*

Cass: 😐

Bruce, knocking on her door: cass?

Cass, suddenly on the floor curled up and sniffling: dad, period hurts 😢

Bruce, slamming the door open, picking his daughter up then tucking her back in her bed: i’m sorry baby. i’m here now, what do you need?

Red Robin, cranky and stressed, having been awake for 120 hours: ugh! why can’t you people do anything right!?

Wonder Girl, also sleep deprived: you arrogant piece of—

Red Robin, suddenly walking away, grabbing his civilian phone: *angrily dials a number*

Bruce, in a WE meeting, answering: hello? tim?

Red Robin, voice breaking: dad?

Bruce:

Batman, requesting access to Mount Justice:

Superboy, eye bags darker than black: what’s batman doing here

Red Robin, packing up, speed walking out the door:

Batman, out of sight: oh, don’t cry sweetie, let’s go home hm?

Bruce, washing the dishes:

Damian, entering the room: baba?

Bruce, smiling: yes?

Damian, shuffling towards him, holding something behind his back:

Bruce: what do have there?

Damian, embarrassed but determined, holds up a drawing of him and Bruce:

Bruce:

Bruce: *sleeping*

Jason:

Jason: b

Bruce: what are you- oh.

Bruce:

Jason:

Bruce, crying again: i love you too, sweetheart

SHOUT OUT TOO ALL OF YOU WHO REBLOGGED AND LIKED THIS!!

I'm sorry, for yelling, this is the first post to make it to 2,000 notes! I really don't know why- but I appreciate all of you! Also, if anyone is writing a fanfiction based on this- please tag me!

Okay, but Bruce Wayne knows the handwriting of everyone he cares about. From Alfred and Babs curls to Damian's neat and carefully printed letters. Bruce also knows that all of his kids have learned to forge their siblings' (and his) handwriting. To the point where it's pure perfection. (He would frown, but he's very impressed they all know each other's handwriting and how much pressure they use.)

HOWEVER, I raise you all;

Anytime the Bats are in a particular mood, they forge a siblings' handwriting. It started with Jason and Dick, after Jason broke a few windows and made apology letter 'written,' by Dick. And Bruce bought it- but Dick was confused when he saw it because he wasn't there.

And then it spirals from there.

Now, the Bat's can forge anybody handwriting. Any of them. From Clark Kent's to Lex Luthor. It get's so ridiculous that they start having competitions at a team's respective base, leaving notes in the leaders' handwriting.

'Oh, Jason wants ice cream? Okay.'

Except Jason hasn't seen the Outlaws for two months because he's dealing with a drug bust.

'Tim wants mint tea today? Odd. But okay.'

Tim immediately spits out the tea asking why he would get the monstrosity.

The best is when Dick gaslights the JL with posts- its. It's Bruce's handwriting on the fridge and on notes. The team thinks he's talking to himself.

And Bruce? He's just very tired of it.

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

The batkids, no matter how much time passes, how much trust and love and safety and security they build with their team, still will not break. Will not show any sign of weakness or grief or sorrow or pain. The only place they collapse is around Bruce, because he’s safe, because he loves unconditionally even if they don't consciously admit it, because they know he will stay. 

Nightwing gets stuck in a haunted underground tunnel system with Flash, Superboy and Viktor for two weeks. By the time they make it out, Barry hugs Hal for so long he loses feeling in his arms, Kon buries himself in Clark’s embrace and calls Lois, and even Viktor asks for Dinah to talk. They all marvel at Dick, at his ability to stay calm, to keep them all together, to remain unruffled after the massive toll. 

But then Batman arrives, harried and billowing into the room(idk plot maybe he was on a search mission with someone else for Dick) and Nightwing spins on his heel from the opposite side of the room, and beelines for his arms. 

Bruce scoops him up bridal style and carries him to the Zeta Tubes and no one hears from them for three days. 

Dick breaks the second they breach the Batcave and its all Bruce can do to hold him and brush his hair and whisper “i love you you’re safe you’re home baby you’re home” to keep himself from crumbling as his adult baby boy son cries in his arms and won’t let go. 

“You didn't even break a sweat!” Barry laughs in awed disbelief, thumping him lightly in the side with an affectionate grin, and suddenly Dick’s forced smile twinges a little, because, sure, in the moment he hadn’t broken a sweat, yeah. But he had also spent the last three days with a fever above 100 due to the mental and emotional strain of staying composed and strong and also hadn't been able to sleep unless he was curled in Bruce’s arms.
