#baby tank!

[kamiiri]

Once again, nighttime fell, and Tank was making his rounds. As he aggressively stomped through the halls, he listened to the thudding of his military boots against the metal floor. He hoped that the thuds would drown out the sound of his own thoughts, which were unusually loud. But of course nothing could drown those out.

His loudest thoughts were of his mother, Lyla. He missed her. He thought of the way she used to tiptoe into his room in the mornings and gently wake him for school. While he was busy getting ready, she’d be downstairs carefully packing his lunch—a peanut butter sandwich with strawberry jelly and no crust, just the way he liked it. And at night, after helping him complete his math homework that would bring him to tears with its difficulty, she’d give him a little kiss on the forehead, leaving a shiny pink ring of lip gloss for him to wipe off with a grossed out giggle. Then she’d return to the kitchen to be yelled at by his father.

Tank knew that things were never perfect. His parents could argue for hours. But he didn’t think it was ever so bad that Lyla would just leave with no explanation. He wondered what she was up to these days. He wondered what could possibly be so great out there that she needed to permanently remove herself from his life. Was it something he did? Why was he not good enough for her? Why wasn’t he ever good enough?

silly headcannon #2 that Bruce never got the reference that Jason always made of himself being short round (he always thought it was Jason saying he was short) until after he died and Tim, avid Indiana Jones fan made Bruce watch the movies with him, only the man breaks out crying., sobbing, full on breaking down over the two second scene that is Indy ruffling Short Round’s hair as he explains they first met when he caught the kid stealing from him, and then took him under his wing.

Jenny and Lyla are best friends no matter what kind of feud is happening between their husbands. Either way, they get together and plan to raise their babies to be best friends like they are. Lyla spends most of her time at the Smith house, and PT9 is more than happy to cook for all of them.

Also, this is part 2 of my last post.

Prompt 296

Through a series of miscommunication, the League is now under the impression that Batman, strange cryptid that he is, may or may not have given birth to the other vigilantes running around in Gotham. This was not helped by Bruce referring to all of his children, no matter how big they get, as his babies. Nor was it helped by Red Robin, in the middle of a narcolepsy-fueled imminent crash, mentioned how he had no mother. 

It also doesn’t help that no one is aware that they are in fact completely normal people, and not aspects of Gotham itself brought to life. Though really that’s on the bats themselves, because at this point they should at least count as undead.

I really love the concept of Bruce calling his grown ass children babies, but let me introduce to you:

Alfred Pennyworth who looks at his huge, ripped middle-aged adopted son, wearing heavy, Kevlar armour, who looks like a giant bat and has been fighting criminals for about twenty years in one of the most dangerous cities, and thinks "baby".

*in the Rebellion inside Echo’s minivan ship*

Rebel, showing Echo some photos: Yeah these are my kids. A boy and a girl. I do this all for them. How many do you have?

Echo: I have five.

Rebel: Aw you must have your hands full! How old are they?

Echo: Four are 312 months and the youngest is 156 months.

Rebel: …

Echo: …

Rebel, trying to do the math: How old did you say you were again?

Me, entirely on a whim yesterday: I think I would like to start keeping cherry shrimp

My coworker, literally just today, who maintains the library fish tank: hey so our shrimp had babies, do you want any shrimplets

The Batkids probably suck at parallel parking, not because Bruce didn't teach them, but because most of the time they're driving a car that makes room on the road as needed or leaps over things.
