Duke Thomas gets added to the payroll

Bruce Wayne (seeing Duke walk past his office): Duke.

Duke backwards walked to Bruce’s office.

Duke: Sup?

Bruce: Did you check your bank account? The direct deposit should’ve hit.

Duke: The what? Oh you were serious about that?

Bruce: Of course, you’re not only my son, but you do work for me and you deserve an income.

Duke: Thanks dude, but I can’t take your money I work at the library.

Bruce: Duke, trust me. You deserve this. I do it for all my kids… except Tim.

Duke: Why not Tim?

Bruce: Long story… he owns part of my company, plus he- he definitely embezzled a lot of my funds before I noticed so him working at my company is his paycheck.

Duke (alarmed): That was him?!

Bruce: Yeah, but that’s not important currently. You enjoy your first payhcheck and I’m proud of you.

Duke: Thanks man.

Duke left the office, checking his phone as he walked to his room. He nearly dropped his phone seeing the four digits in his bank account that had five dollars in it three days ago.

Duke (shocked, happy): Three- Three thousand dollars?! Woooooooo! I’m eating good tonight! No wait, game stop here I come!

Duke ran out the house passing by Stephanie and Jason.

Duke: I can finally buy a PlayStation!

Jason: Wait until he finds out it’s a monthly payment.

Stephanie: I’ll tell him later. Want to go tell Tim about it first?

Jason: 100% yes.

There was a sharp tug at Damian’s core, his world started blurring, he did not know how he knew but he did. He was being revived.

“Danny—”

“I know.”

Damian smiled at his brother one last time, wrapping his arms around him. It felt nice being held by Danny—even though he knew it would not last—

The Infinite Realms smeared in Damian’s vision, and Danny disappeared. Damian closed his eyes one last time, when he opened them he was in the arms of his Father.

Batfamily Chronicles Microfiction Series: Stephanie Brown's Reluctant Rivarly

by Raye_Wonderland What is the Batfamily like when they aren't trying to put up the facade of the toughest heroes in Gotham? What are they like on a regular day? What are they like dealing with villains they don't really hate, but find incredibly annoying. What if they had a mountain of issues and trauma but that's what made them care about each other. That they coped with humor or fighting bad guys. Batman wasn't just the stoic, sullen detective all the time? This is that script-fic. A dark comedy based series that showcases the ins and outs and insanity this family has. At the end of the day though they do love each other. Shenanigans galore with the rag-tag family. Written as a script format (to the best of ability) and connected to a series of stories that will be posted randomly then linked to this. Don't worry there's a sort of structure to the series :) Welcome to the Batfamily Words: 2322, Chapters: 1/?, Language: English Series: Part 1 of Batfamily Chronicles Microfiction Series Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Characters: Batman Ensemble, Rogues Gallery (Batman), Robin (DCU), Batgirl (DCU), Bruce Wayne, Stephanie Brown, Barbara Gordon, Batfamily Members (DCU) Relationships: Batfamily Members & Batfamily Members (DCU) Additional Tags: Screenplay/Script Format, Batfamily (DCU), Batfamily (DCU) Feels, Batfamily Dynamics (DCU), Batfamily Shenanigans (DCU), Caring Batfamily (DCU), Batfamily is a Mess (DCU), Batfamily-centric (DCU), Dark Comedy, Fluff and Angst, Light Angst, Originally Posted on Tumblr, Cross-Posted on Tumblr, Tumblr Prompt, Not Beta Read, my first batfamily fic via https://ift.tt/Y4vdDJ5

Jason Todd babysitting baby Damian.

Jason looked around as Damian sat next to him. The little baby stared at the man with a blank stare.

Jason (rubbing Damian's chubby cheeks with his hand): Tiny baby. Precious. Soft. You are a cute baby.

Baby Damian smiled then giggled.

Jason: I can't believe you share his DNA, or her DNA or her father's DNA.

Jason booped Damian's nose making the baby giggle and cover his face.

Jason: All right, got that out my system. Let's go play in the dirt.

Jason picked up Damian and took him outside.

Jason: Battled my brother, taking care of my dad's secret son, getting paid. It's gonna be a good year.

Damian (happy): Ah!

Jason: Thank you.

Flashback: Jason Todd when he discovered one of the trainers the Al Ghul's got for him was a child trafficker

*based off a story from the book

Jason (shocked): They… were just children.

His trainer (indifferent): Don't be so dramatic; it was necessary.

Jason (seething with rage): They were just children… and you were trafficking them.

His trainer (indignant): I did what was necessary—

Jason (raising his voice, gripping a knife): THEY WERE JUST CHILDREN, AND YOU TRAFFICKED THEM!

-----------------------------------

Jason (finishing the story): And then I murdered him in cold blood. It was fun… I think I felt true euphoria that day. Oh, and I let the kids go.

Bruce (too stunned and upset to speak): …

Dick (whispering, impressed): Resist the urge to clap.

Tim (horrified): Holy crap, did you have to detail it like that?

Jason: It's not a good story if I leave out the important parts. Like the time I recounted how I beat you up and won, I had to include the part where I stabbed your hand.

Tim (exasperated): You didn't have to and you didn’t win that! You cuffed me to a chimney at the last minute and ran off! I forgive you though, but I won that fight!

Jason (coolly): Seems like a win on my side to me. Anyway, Ra's kept assigning me trainers who were pedophiles, murderers, drug dealer; people I wouldn't let a child around. They all kept rationalizing their crimes, and somehow they kept running into my knife, or getting in the path of my gun, or “accidentally” falling off a bridge. That’s all I’ll say about that.

Tim rolled his eyes, relieved that Jason hadn’t explicitly detailed those killings. Damian and Stephanie, however, had the opposite reaction and stood up, applauding.

Cass (with a blank expression): Jason?

Jason (worried): Yes?

Cass (nodding approvingly): I’ll allow it.

Jason (smiling): Thanks!

Duke: Can somebody pass the cranberry sauce? Also, can I go next? I can top Jason's story! Let’s just say I didn’t buy that katana; nah, I earned that!

Bruce sighed, covering his eyes in frustration.

Bruce: This is the weirdest fucking Thanksgiving, but at least it hasn't gotten worse—

Alfred (making it worse): Talia and Ra's are here.

Damian (pleasantly surprised): Oh, they actually showed up!

Bruce slammed his head on the table.

Dick: That means "God… Damn it!"

[gothamite-rambler]

Penguin: Do you hear something?

The glass ceiling above them gave way and Red Hood descended to the ground. He all right, but incredibly sore and pissed off.

Red Hood: Why do so many Gotham buildings have glass ceilings?! Why haven't they taken care of this? Bat family members take up half the residents! These roofs should be redone to support our weight!

Nightwing (looking down): I'm going to drop down!

Red Hood: Not on me!

Nightwing dropped down, landing on Red Hood's hand and while it wasn't broken, it definitely hurt.

Red Hood (screaming in pain): I said not me!

Nightwing (dismissive): You've been through worse.

[gothamite-rambler]

Tim: You are the love of my life and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.

Bernard: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.

Tim: I said within reason, Bernard. How about I ruin the life of that guy who called you a slur at the club?

Bernard: So ruining someone's life is in reason but proper self care isn't?

Tim: Well, duh. What kind of question is that? I bet his internet history is weird and illegal.

Bernard: ...I'm not against you checking.

[gothamite-rambler]

He's asking the real question because Tim was a wild card when he first wanted to become a Robin

Dick: You ever think that if you had said no to Tim being the next Robin he would've become a villain instead?

Bruce spat his drink out in shock.

Bruce (between coughs): I thought I was jumping to conclusions!

Dick: Yeah, nah I love Tim, he's my brother, but... Jesus Christ this could've been an 'Incredibles' situation. So I'm glad you put aside how you usually are and let him work with you.

Bruce (confused): Thank you... Wait what do you mean how I usually am?

Dick stood up and walked off.

Bruce: The silence speaks volumes!

Dick: Don't care.

A million dollars

Duke: Would you slap your favorite brother for a million dollars?

Jason without a second thought kicked Tim in the face, sending him to the floor.

Tim (shocked, anger): What the fuck?!

Duke (deadpan): I said slap.

Jason: Oh right, hold on.

Jason helped Tim up and then back hand slapped him across the face. Tim spun around and collapsed to the ground again.

Tim: Ow, I bit my cheek that time!

Tim moaned in pain.

Jason (pretending to be ignorant): Wait did you say favorite brother? I thought you meant if I had to slap one.

Tim: You know that's not what he said!

Duke (amused): You'd win, but Holy pimp slap Batman. Damn!

Tim: How much can I get for this?

Tim kicked Jason in his crotch causing the man to fall to the ground as well. Duke took a sip from his coffee mug trying not to laugh.

[gothamite-rambler]

Jim: You know Bruce—

Batman: I am in my costume right now; call me by my hero name and stop smoking.

Batman swiped away the cigarette and tossed it on the ground.

Jim (pulling out another cigarette): Batman, you’ve had five Robins. I have no idea why the girl was the shortest; I liked her. But I'm curious, which one of them is your favorite?

Batman: I should be angry at that question, but none of them are here. Okay, I have a list and I rank them by skill set.

Jim: Explain.

Batman: The smartest Robin would be Red Robin. The best fighter? That’s the second Robin.

Jim: Really? I thought you would say the first one.

Batman: No, no. Nightwing became a good fighter eventually, mostly when he started his own hero stuff. He’s better at manipulation and flexibility.

Nightwing (on the comms): I freaking called it!

Batman groaned, slapping a hand over his eyes. Jim chuckled.

Jim: Your earpiece thing was accidentally on?

Batman: Mm-hm.

Red Hood (on the comms): I was your best fighter? Aww, I told you that my fighting style was necessary. I'm going to give you an actually good gift for Christmas this year.

Red Robin: I'm the smart one; I'll take it.

Robin: I didn’t get mentioned at all!

Jim: They’re arguing over each other?

Batman: Yep. Can I call it a night and just get coffee with you?

Jim (shrugging): Yeah, sure.

[gothamite-rambler]

Jason: I save money, I buy a cat tree, I put it together, it took my hours that I've lost track of and what do you do? What do you do?!

Jason turned to his cat, Austen who was sprawled out in the box yapping in meows.

Jason: You're focused on the box it came in?!

Austen (not seeing an issue): Meow... Meow?

Jason: No, I can't feed you yet! Dinner time is in three hours!

Austen (making it clear he doesn't know how time works): Hisss!

Jason (lovingly): I love you too, stinker.

[gothamite-rambler]

Jason: Hey, how did my phone break?

Dick: You were drunk yesterday.

Jason: And?

Dick: You threw it.

Jason: Why?

Dick: You turned on airplane mode and kept screaming, “FLY, DAMN YOU!”

Jason: And why didn’t you stop me?!

Dick: I was too busy laughing my ass off. Plus, remember that time I was really drunk, and instead of taking me to the bathroom, you threw me in bed? I woke up having wet myself!

Jason: Yeah— to be fair, you were going to piss yourself regardless. There’s no way you could hold your Richard.

Dick: Stop calling it that!

Jason: Stop going by Dick.

[gothamite-rambler]

Batman: I struggle with falling in love with women.

Green Arrow (curious): Are you gay or something?

Batman (serious): No. I tested that.

A heavy silence fell over the JLA meeting room as everyone processed his words, wondering if he was joking.

J'onn (stirring his hot chocolate): He’s not even remotely kidding.

Hawkman groaned realizing he lost the bet.

Hawkgirl (taking a hundred bucks from Hawkman): I knew it! Who was it?

Vixen: Was it Superman? Aquaman? Green Arrow? The Flash? Wait… Was it—

Flash (defensive): Stop guessing! He hasn’t been with any of us!

Batman: I wouldn't lower my standards like that and Aquaman is a friend.

Aquaman perked hearing this while eating his sandwich. Superman rolled his eyes jealous.

J'onn: Some of you have thought about it, though.

Green Arrow blushed, looking down at his hands.

Green Arrow: It’s not my fault he’s attractive without the cowl on.

Hawkgirl: Batman— What? Never mind. Back to you! Who was it? Dish. You can trust us.

Batman: Nah.

Hawkgirl: What do you mean, "nah"?

Batman: It means I’m leaving you all guessing how I tested this. And trust me, that makes it funnier for me. Plus, J'onn won't disclose it either!

J'onn: He's right, we have a deal.

Hawkgirl: Dude!

J'onn: He promised to show me those Star Wars films this weekend, and I’m not missing the Christmas special!

Lucid Harvey Dent being fatherly to Jason Todd

Harvey Dent: Hey Red Hood, Batman, white Robin.

Red Robin: Is that what they call me?

Harvey: Well it helps me differentiate you two since I think you're both called Robin.

Red Robin: That... Makes sense and honestly makes me feel a lot better.

Red Hood: Are we talking to Two-Face or lucid Harvey?

Harvey: Lucid Harvey. You're the kid that survived... again it's really good to see you, you look very healthy.

Red Hood (sniffling): I needed that today.

Batman growled with anger, rubbing his forehead frustrated.

Batman: We didn't come here so you can make him cry.

Red Hood: I'm not crying!

Harvey chuckled and takes a sip from his tea cup.

Harvey: What you here for? I can talk for a few hours, I'm getting better at staying in reality.

Red Hood: Oh okay, that's great! Before we start, I wanted to give you this coin.

Red could flipped the coin through the cell bars and Harvey caught it with ease he examined the coin and saw that it was a cute novelty coin he could flip.

Harvey: Aww that's neat. It's marked decision coin and one side says 'hell yeah' and the other one 'fuck no'. Two face will like this. Thanks kid.

Red Hood: I can't do this... I can't do this. He's so fatherly.

Red Hood sniffled and walked off to have a moment alone. Red Robin chuckled when he saw Batman glaring at Harvey, but it was hidden by his mask. He patted him on the shoulder.

Red Robin: Sorrows, prayers.

Batman: Shut up.

Bruce Wayne: I leave you alone for an hour and you spent a thousand dollars with my credit card!

Jason holds two big tote bags filled with books

Jason Todd: You left me alone... In a Barnes and Noble! This was inevitable.

Bruce Wayne: I’m honestly glad that you’re not buying weapons anymore.
