#PTA Batdad

[emo-batboy]

I GIVE YOU a totally real list of viral photos of Battinson with his newly adopted son, Dick Grayson, that took Gotham by storm

Bruce crossing the street with a rosy-cheeked Dick Grayson dutifully holding his hand, Dick somehow found the camera and is waving to it excitedly (this is the first ever photo of them together)

Dick balanced perfectly at the top (and I mean on top) of a jungle gym while Bruce looks stressed out of his mind, pleading for Dick to get down before he hurts himself

Dick doing the exact same thing a month later but this time Bruce looks completely unfazed, sipping a coffee like it’s just a normal Tuesday (the photos are regularly paired together as a popular meme template in Gotham)

A selfie of Bruce and Dick making stupid faces at the camera that Dick turned into his class for one of those “About Me” posters you make in 3rd grade

Dick asleep in Bruce’s arms after a fancy dinner party, they’re wearing matching suits, Bruce is kissing his forehead :(

Bruce and Dick propped up against a wall, sharing a packet of fruit snacks in an empty room next to the charity gala they’re supposed to be attending

A plethora of photos of Dick climbing on top of Bruce at inopportune moments (à la this post)

Including a press conference.

And an investors’ meeting (bring your kid to work day)

Bruce standing outside of Gotham Elementary holding Dick in his arms with matching scowls on their faces. A mother and her son have been cropped out after the boy shoved Dick, and the mother refused to make him apologize. (It almost got physical. The mom has since quit the PTA.)

Bruce and Dick wearing matching sunglasses on the Gotham pier, Bruce is sipping another coffee while Dick eats from a comically large ice cream cone. A second photo shows Dick offering some to Bruce, which he accepts

Bruce retying Dick’s tie in the middle of another charity gala (for the children’s hospital)

Dick doing a cartwheel in the park while Bruce looks at him with the fondest look humanly possible

Bruce and Dick in a convenience store at 10pm (on a Friday) wearing matching oversized Nirvana shirts and pajama pants, it looks like they’re having a movie marathon (it’s Grey Ghost reruns <3)

I loved reading your take on Battinson and the PTA! Could you PLEASE go into detail about the PTA moms treating him like the class hamster, I loved that 😄

They all have a schedule and rotate Bruce between their houses like he's a bowl of ramen

Obviously, they're doing it for the kids! Bruce is notoriously well liked among their headach-- their blessings (theyre not allowed to talk bad abt their kids, even jokingly, around him. He will stare at them autistically, dont think he wont)

They behave 100x better around him. They make him snacks, bring him drinks, call their friends to see him, -- class hamster except he doesn't die overnight (Margie hasn't lost hope yet!)

" I started going to church just for that,"

" Just take me out yourself?"

" Hah. So you can avoid losing to me at soccer matches? You'd like that, wouldn't you?"

But seriously, he's a young parent, a FIRST TIME young parent, he's struggling. They equate him with the freshmen going to the senior Olympics. Not to mention like, 50% of men there are terrible to him. They all bond like that.

Imagine being a PTA mom, trying to cheat at the bakesale with storebrought cookies, walking around a Batmart, and fucking Batman marches to you, snatches the packet out of your hands, and throws them five aisles over, then dips without elaborating

[ID: two comic pages that has six panels each of random Batman related activities or objects. In the first panel, Robin is holding a picture book labeled 'Batman's Souvenir Album'. Batman and Robin are smiling down at it and we get to see some of the examples. Each picture has a narration box that labels it. As follows the panels are;

'The Batplane of the 1950's.' With the airplane flying in front of a white, puffy cloud and light blue sky.

'Disarming a crook with the Batarang.' With Batman's arm still extended from throwing the boomerang. It hit the criminal's hand and caused them to drop their gun.

'Batwoman (Kathy Kane) on her Batcycle.' With Batwoman on a solid red motorcycle.

'The Bat-signal stabs through the night skies.' With a giant searchlight that casts an emblem of the Batman logo shining into the dark city skyline.

'Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne - the caped crime fighters' civilian identities.' With Bruce and Dick in their civilian clothes and smiling at each other happily.

'Closing in on the Joker.' With the Joker in the foreground, laughing as he gets chased by Batman.

'Wire walking - one of the Dynamic Duo's acrobatic specialties.' With them close together, walking on a tightwire without a struggle.

'Robin swings into things by Bat-rope.' With Robin smiling as he holds onto a thin rope - his cape flying behind him with the motion.

'The Batmobile of the 1950's.' With the Batmobile speeding down the road with skyscrapers in the background.

'Analyzing evidence in the Batcave's chemical lab.' With Batman holding a small test tube that has steam coming out of it. Robin is beside him and is watching a rounded piece of lab equipment that sits on the table in front of them.

'The Whirly-Bats.' With Batman and Robin smiling and operating their individual, small helicopters.

"The Extremely True Story of the Titans Tower Attack" by Wisetypewriter https://archiveofourown.org/works/45011785 - Red Hood evilly dragged the iron maiden Talia had gifted him in the Titans Tower’s kitchen.

"Confessional" by Temeritous @temeritious - Jason gets hit with a spell and uses it in an inadvisable manner. [mild horror, hurt no comfort]

whether a beast or a human being by Goldmonger https://archiveofourown.org/series/3417622 - The Red Hood has been recaptured by the Batman and consigned to a private prison, one buried deep beneath Gotham City. The Dark Knight has encountered insane and deadly criminals before, and knows the havoc that can be wreaked from allowing them any kind of freedom. The Red Hood will spend the rest of his life under observation, and will be cared for according to the directives of the Batman. It is unlikely that he will rejoin society, but that is a sacrifice that must be made to protect the citizens of Gotham. [stream of consciousness, hurt, WIP]

But there was something odd about that family, and no it wasn't just because Cassandra's mother outvoted him at the last PTA meeting, Jason. (That may have played a small part. Sue him, he's human.) Awesome Cass and Shiva, with little Jason as a major character. [feel-good comedy, friendship, family]

PTA Batdad

The only person higher on bruce’s enemy list then the Joker. Is Karen from Gotham Academy’s PTA meetings.

[trekkele]

Enough of 'the batkids cant excel in extracurriculars because their cover' as if Bruce Wayne, PTA mom of the year wouldn't destroy his last shred of dignity by crashing yet another Segway and providing cover so that everyone else can know exactly how amazing his kids are

[bigfan-fanfic]

*Batdad arguing with Bruce*

Batdad: So I’ll just shut the FUCK up and never speak again! Will that make you happy?!

Jason: What happened this time?

Damian: Father says that Papa made a “scene” at the PTA meeting at my school.

Jason: what kind of scene are we talking here?

Damian: Papa wanted to know why there aren’t that many resources for LGBTQ kids at my school and everything kinda went downhill from there.

Batdad is a rich CEO who has championed equal rights and pay in a non-discriminatory workplace - he has no time for the PTA at Gotham Academy. If he hasn't already put Damian in a virtual school, he's purchasing and demolishing GA to make it more inclusive, not just to LGBTQ students, but to all students, not just the rich assholes

Your yandere dadthor was such a cool concept it make make me curios how papa al ghul treat reader 💖💖💖

Yandere Papa al Ghul/ Ra's al Ghul

(This is all I could think of but I'm sure I'll think of more things will come up eventually.)

Papa al Ghul is very protective. He has actually tried to take you and teach you to be an assassin planning on training you much like Damian but his plans were ruined by the rest of the Yan!family. So he decided to join the "squad" as Y/n likes to refer to it as.

He actually probably met you on one of his visits to Gotham to try to persuade Bruce to join him, but you were the only one at the manor at the time. He was going to take you hostage but you just invited him to sit and have a snack as he waited for Bruce. And through that time he grew an attachment to you. To say Bruce was livid when he came home to find you and fucking Ra's al Ghul chillin on the couch as you explained the plot of Shrek to him would be an understatement.

Ra's doesn't know what a PTA meeting is but when he got word about the whole Karen incident he wasn't happy. He basically came to Y/n's school and wanted them to point out all the PTA members and their kids so he could take care of them. But Y/n was like that's not how it works. This ain't it chief. So he didn't but he really wanted to.

He's that dad that just comes and visits whenever. He has no care for anyone's scheduled time with Y/n, he'll just pop in take them and pop out. It's caused a lot of trouble with the other family members.

Ra's has absolutely no respect for the schedule, he wants your time when he wants your time and he wants it all the time but he can't obviously have that because of the other family members. He's gotten better about the whole thing but he was very annoyed at not getting all his time with Y/n.

He's often gotten into fights with Yan!dad Joker, almost killing him on multiple occasions. Yan!bro Jason was perfectly fine with this even offering his help but Yan!Batdad Bruce wasn't having any of it.

Papa al Ghul has to be supervised when it's his time with Y/n because he can't be trusted to not kidnap them.

The Batfam

Just some basic head cannons for the batfam in a new universe i was thinking about

The Bat fam, but like majorly a fam. Basically a sit com with super powers:

Bruce

·      Loves his boys but literally never has any idea what he’s doing

·      Kind of only figures out the whole ‘being a dad thing’ by Damien

·      Even then like not really

·      Forgets every birthday and holiday, even his own birthday

·      Constantly calls Superman for advice

·      Is secretly terrified of parent-teacher conferences

·      But like the second a teacher starts to criticize his kid he turns into a PTA mom in .5 seconds

·      Refuses to give up trying to do better by his kids

·      Always proud to see his kids growing up and doing good things despite his shit job

Dick-

·      oldest brother complex-

·      thinks the has to fix everything and do it right the first time

·      Really wants people to call him Grayson, instead of Dick, but the others Refuse

·      Resigned af

·      Nothing phases him anymore

·      Has the best relationship with BatDad because he understands and forgives his faults

·      Tries really hard to make time to bond with his sibs

·      Straight A boy

Jason

·      Second Son: aka living disaster

·      Thinks he’s a fuck up (kind of true) and no one cares (super false)

·      Picks fights when he means to just talk to the others

·      Has the best sense of humor though

·      His relationship with BatDad is the most complicated

·      Will fight anyone for his fam, but will deny that’s why he did it to the ends of the earth

·      #1 on list of bat boys you don’t want to fuck with

·      What is school?

Tim

·      Bitter Middle Child

·      No but like really he seems quiet and Resigned, but that is all a cover for his Bitter soul

·      Sarcasm machine

·      Is kind of distant with the boys?

·      But it’s only because he’s secretly terrified that they don’t want him around

·      Is always working to protect them

·      Secretly idolizes Dick

·      Tolerates BatDad, but really does not think he should have been a father

·      Really close w/ Selena and secretly thinks of her as his mom (Sometimes sidekicks for her as Cat Lad)

·      Is a year ahead in school and still top of his class, like bitch what up?

Damien

·      Every bad stereotype for the youngest child x1000

·      Does not know when to stop

·      Extra as fuck

·      All his pride is just a cover for his insecurities though

·      Constantly compares himself to the others even though they’re all way older than he is

·      Doesn’t know how to make friends so he’s like v attached to his brothers

·      Majorly a little shit to them though because he like needs their attention

·      Loves his BatDad a lot and won’t listen to criticisms of him

·      Goes to a 40k private school where he treats academics like a competition

[emo-batboy]

Battinson adopting a hyper Gen-Alpha Dick Grayson who acts like a little terror 90% of the time but is also 90% of Bruce’s will to live so he gets away with everything

Battinson: um excuse you, my son is an angel and can do no wrong

Dick, who was just about to Nerf Bruce in the back of the head: yeah! I’m a pleasure
