#Dick Grayson Christmas

[theodorecanaryhood]

A Christmas story: A brother take away

Dick Grayson x Jason Todd x baby bat bro

Reader is taken by the Gotham rogues the week before Christmas.

Belfry fell into a deep silence as Jason looked through every security system he could find. He was hunting high and low for his baby brother.

Two days ago you were at a friend’s house where you were due to be picked up at 7, Jason turned up but you weren’t there.

Your friend’s parents said that an ‘uncle’ had come to pick you up, you ran out to the car and that was that. You of course are a smart kid and know about stranger danger. The man waited in the car for you to get in, that’s when you were taken.

Dick was out in the streets trying to hunt for a lead, but of course he wasn’t getting very far.

‘Are you aware that tomorrow is Christmas Eve?’ Jason asked the desk sergeant, the man only nodded.

‘And are you aware that there is an 11 year old out there somewhere, away from his family?’ Jason followed.

Dick placed his hand on his younger brother’s shoulder, giving him a small smile.

‘What he means is, our brother hasn’t been seen for three days now. Can you please just help?’ Dick asked, playing good cop by being calm and polite.

‘You can fill a missing persons report, but it may not happen over night’ the desk sergeant said, a hint of irritation in his voice.

Jason found it pointless to ask for the police’s help anymore, not all of them seemed that interested or caring.

‘Jason, I think I found something’ Dick called out as he hacked into security cameras in an abandoned apartment building.

Within seconds the two had written down the address and were rushing out onto the streets to find you.

‘Y/n?’ Dick called out, seeing you with a police officer. You shot your head in the direction of your eldest brother.

‘Dick!’ You screamed as you ran towards him, Dick breathed as if he was about to cry. Dropping down to pick you up.

Dick lifted you off the ground as he held onto you, burying his face into your hair.

Jason rushed over shortly after, doing the same thing as Dick. Both so overwhelmed and exhausted, yet grateful they had found you safe and sound.

Jason sat on the backseat with you as Dick drove you all home, it was over and you were safe. Of course, Dick and Jason would have to get to the bottom of who took you, why, and then handle them accordingly. But for now, they were just happy to have you back.

[neuro-psyche]

I think Dick and Jason would have multiple “what the actual fuck are you saying right now” with Tim and Damian when it comes to quality of life/monetary differences. Sure, Dick and Jason got used to Bruce’s “is $100 a good enough tip on a $30 bill?” shit, but hearing Tim talking about a new laptop he bought for $5000 literally is like a punch in the gut.

If they ever went on a cruise (which they totally wouldn’t because cruises are floating death traps), Jason and Dick would be in awe of the fancy amenities, where as Damian would be unsatisfied with the quality, since he grew up with every single amenity known to man. Tim would just feel like it’s all normal since the Drake’s were extravagant and travelled all over the planet.

Jason : My bedroom is bigger than my fucking apartment.

Dick : I could do a full gymnastics routine with the space in my room.

Tim :

Dick :

Tim : My room is normal sized…

Jason : You grew up in a mega mansion. I hardly think you’re the benchmark of a normal room-

Damian : I must agree with Drake. This room is frankly underwhelming.

Dick, staring wildly at him : What do you mean underwhelming- Dames there’s an aquarium wall in your room.

Damian : Yes. Underwhelming.

Jason :

Dick :

Jason : Do you want to-

Dick : Jump off the boat? Yes.

[theaceofarrows]

Red Hood: [punches Riddler goon]

Red Hood: Call me boughs of holly, the way I be decking peoples halls

Batman: Hood-

Nightwing: Call me Christmas cookie, the way I be looking like a snack

Batman: Nightwing-

Nightwing: [kicks another goon before striking a pose]

Batman: I thought asked you both not to say that on patrol

Red Hood: You did

Nightwing: But Spoiler had a very strong argument on why we should say it

Batman: Which was?

Red Hood: She said "but it would really annoy Batman If you DID say it"

Nightwing: So obviously, we had too

Spoiler: [whose recording everything] Smile for the camera boys! This is about to become the most viewed piece of footage at the Watchtower!

Batman: [under his breath] this is why I tell everyone I work alone

[huedmmi]

🎄Merry Christmas!

[ghost-bxrd]

Prompt:

Jason, upon coming back to Gotham and seeing how neglected Tim is, breaks into Drake manor and drags Tim by the collar over to Wayne manor and kicks down the door, yelling for Bruce.

“IT’S THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST, BITCH! AND IT WANTS WORDS WITH YOU!”

[damianwaynerocks]

here’s what I’m convinced are the batfamily’s views on Santa:

Alfred: does not believe but still says that Santa is real. Anytime anybody else says that Santa isn’t real, Alfred gives them a really stern glare and thus everybody tells him that they believe in Santa even though they do not

Bruce: fully believed up until his parents died

Dick: fully believed up until Bruce tried to make him go out on patrol on Christmas Eve. Tried to argue that he couldn’t go out bc he might miss Santa and Bruce told him Santa isn’t real. Alfred was very mad. However dick tried to get Damian to believe (see below)

Jason: never believed in Santa

Tim: didn’t believe in Santa until he saw him die that one time.

Damian: had never heard of Santa until dick told him about it. But then he went on a rant about how there’s no way Santa could be real because no man without powers or technology could enter ever single international airspace without being shot down

Duke: believed up until he was 10 when his parents told him

Stephanie: never believed because her dad never made a big deal out of Christmas

Cass: had never heard about Santa until she joined the batfamily. She does believe he’s real as nobody wants to break it to her

[spacedace]

Damian doesn't know who Santa Claus is and Danny tries to gaslight him into believing in Santa

Okay but, like, wouldn't even be gaslighting! Santa canonically does exist in the DC universe, I think I remember reading something about him fighting through an army in hell to give Darkseid a single piece of coal once?

So like, Danny doesn't have to gaslight Damian into believing Santa's real, he just has to pull out the proof (Danny has a binder of everything he knows about the Spirit of Christmas for the purpose of when he eventually goes to war with him, Danny hates Christmas so fucking much haha) and show him evidence that Santa is real.

Probably ranting the entire time about how much he hates the guy & Christmas and it's obvious that this is Danny's arch nemesis. His one true villain above all others. Pariah Dark? A nuisance. Dark Dan? Just a tuesday. Santa? That motherfucker is the bane of Danny's existence and he will pay for what he's done (spread Christmas cheer).

And Danny's the newest member to the family. Damian's been encouraged to get to know his new brother and try and bond with him a bit, make him feel like part of the family. So, obviously, the best way to do that is to help Danny in his quest for vengeance.

And of course Tim & Jason end of getting roped in on this. Damian's grown since he's first came to live with his father. He still is a little brat to his older brothers - he's the baby of the family it's his right - but he doesn't actively hate them anymore and can admit when their particular skills would be useful. Tim is the best at strategizing, and Jason is a combat master with access to all sorts of weapons. With all of them working together Santa has no chance, they will destroy him.

Which all just makes me think of something like this happening lol:

“What…uh, what are they doing?” Duke glanced between the chaos unfolding in the family room to where Dick was calmly seated in his favorite chair, sipping idly at a cup of coffee.

“Sibling bonding.” Dick said. There was that specific aura of calm around him that said that he’d already gone through several crisis and all the stages of grief at least twice. Considering the calamity and chaos the eldest batkid had seen over the years - and especially the last few months since Bruce officially adopted Danny and brought him into the fold - it was a bad sign that he’d reached this particular state of Done (TM) before noon. The earliest Dick even woke up was two in the afternoon.

Duke contemplated turning around right then and there - the particular combination of people all excitedly feeding off each other’s feral energy on the other side of the room was a catastrophe in the making he didn’t want to be anywhere near when it finally breached containment and spilled out into the wider world - but unfortunately he was cursed with the curiosity that afflicted all members of the bat clan.

“It looks like they’re plotting to try and kill Santa Claus.”

Dick turned to look at Duke fully for the first time since he’d entered the room. He had the eyes of one that was deeply haunted by the horrors they had witnessed. On the other side of the room Tim was ranting about anti-magic tech while Danny, Damian and Jason argued over what weapons would be most effective against a demi god. There were schematics of what looked worryingly like a rocket launcher looking device that - if the scribbles on the whiteboard someone had drug into the room where to be believed - was going to be rigged to shoot ecto-grenades.

“Danny hates Christmas.” Dick said, and Duke noticed for the first time that his hands around the coffee cup were faintly trembling. “He’s declared Santa is his arch nemesis.”

Duke blinked, glancing over to the others long enough to see Danny start frantically scribbling the words Christmas Nuke on the whiteboard. No one else was trying to erase it. Tim looked worriedly contemplative. Damian and Jason where both nodding in agreement.

He was going to regret this. “But Santa isn’t real?”

Dick’s eyes gained a faintly manic glean, and Duke could faintly hear the sound of porcelain creaking warningly beneath the desperate hold he had on his coffee cup. “That’s what I thought!” Dick said, with enough cheer to make Duke flinch back instinctively. “But apparently he is.” A distinct crack appeared in the cup, coffee dripping down into Dick’s lap. “And apparently they’re going to war with him!”

Well, Duke considered, at least that explained why he caught the four of them burning down the giant Christmas tree in the city center last night.

Christmas Wishlist

Damian: So, what are you getting me for Christmas?

Jason: Nice try, brat.

Jason: Actually, no, terrible try. What was that? Where’s the subtly? The cunning?

Damian: *shrugs*

Later

Steph: Just out of curiosity, were you expecting that to work? At all?

Damian: Not really, no.

Steph: Then why bother?

Damian: It’s all part of my plan.

Steph:

Damian:

Steph: Are you going to expound on that, or…

Later that week

Oracle: Robin, there’s a burglary taking place on 5th and Jefferson.

Nightwing: I’ll be there in like three minutes, Robin, just wait for me.

Robin: I have it handled.

Red Robin: Just wait for Nightwing, you dummy.

Robin: Unnecessary.

Spoiler: You’re going to make Nightwing sad.

Oracle: Or you’ll get hurt.

Spoiler: Yeah, or that.

Robin: Tt. I’ll be fine. “He will win who knows when to fight and when to fight harder.”

Red Hood: That is NOT how that quote goes.

Everyone:

Oracle: Hood, I thought you were in California this week.

Red Hood: I felt an insult to humanity preparing to take form.

More later

Cass: Did you tell Jason what you wanted for Christmas yet?

Damian: I’m working on it.

Several days after that

Tim: Why are you in my room?

Damian: You left the window open.

Tim:

Damian: The philosophers are very clear on what to do there.

Tim:

Damian, a little louder: When your enemy leaves their WINDOW open.

Tim: And are you achieving what you are hoping to achieve right now?

Damian: Unclear.

Tim: You know, you could always write a letter to Santa like a normal kid.

Damian: Absolutely not.

Tim: Yeah… Probably for the best, actually, considering past dealings and all…

Christmas Morning

Damian, opening his gift:

Dick: What’d Jason give you?

Damian: *proudly holds up a signed copy of The Art of War*

Tim: Okay, that’s got to be fake, right?

Everyone: *looks at Jason*

Jason, shrugging: The Flashes owed me a favor.

Bruce, eye twitching slightly: Do I have to send the time travel safety presentation out to everyone again?

Jason: Don’t worry, they already fixed the parts of the timeline they broke.

Bruce: *very lengthy sigh*

Damian: Thank you, Jason.

Jason: You’re welcome.

Jason: Now there will be no more murdering of quotes. You have no excuses.

Later

Damian: My plan worked.

Steph: And just asking was too hard because…

Damian: What’s the point of that? Where’s the cunning? The subtly?

[gffa]

Every elder sibling deciding NOT to tell their younger brother that, yes, Bat-Mite is a real thing and not some weird hallucination they just had and then them turning around to go, well, nobody told ME so I'm not telling either, is the sheer pettiness of Dick and Jason and Tim that I am here for. LMAO They're all horrible gremlin older brothers, your honor, and I love them.

[birdybat]

Bruce has already mastered the technique of blocking Damian’s attacks and he does it with ease and one arm. At this point in their careers, I imagine Bruce is so used to Damian this is their daily routine now lmao.
