[remarcely]

Bruce Wayne wakes up in the past, five months after Jason Todd died, and spends most days sat beside the grave because he never found out exactly when Jason had come back and he wanted to be there to save him when he did.

From an outside perspective, everyone is extremely concerned.

[peerlesshamster]

Okay hear me out.

Red Hood, Gotham's favorite crime lord, being called son by Brucie Wayne who is (for the first time by mistake) incredibly high and walking around Gotham like he doesn't know he's a high risk kidnappee.

The street might seem empty but Red Hood knows there's multiples eyes watching from the shadows, windows and any single space that can fit a person, he knows his Gotham well. And he knows it'd be impossible to silence so many witnesses of Gotham's Prince calling him his baby and whining "my jaylad please come home".

Of course next day social media is exploding with pictures of Red Hood carrying a happy looking Bruce Wayne on his shoulder to his bike, even a sequence of pictures before that showing how he went from looking pathetic and on the verge of tears to look like all his wishes were fulfilled next to a resigned looking criminal. #RedHoodIsJasonTodd? tag is trending on twitter #WayneIsBatmansEx alongside.

Idk what this is honestly

*After a Justice League meeting*

Green lantern: You know spooky with your army of children you must be quite the ladies man.

Bruce has decided to mess with Hal.

Batman: I gave birth to them lantern.

Green Lantern: I- what?

Batman: *deadpan* I. Gave. Birth. To. Them.

Green Lantern: But- I- you're a man.

Batman: I don't know how that is relevant to this conversation.

Batman: I must depart I have important business elsewhere.

Hal tells everyone, no one believes him.

An AU of this fantastic AU https://archiveofourown.org/works/46160407/chapters/116207416 ( seriously read this)

For context in the original fic Tim is a clone of Batman and is found shortly after Jason dies, so Bruce is very very much loosing it and doesn’t want another kid so he’s very cold towards Tim and doesn’t want him.

So instead of Tim succeeding fighting and to join Batman as Robin and become Bruce’s official son. Bruce ( and the Justice league) send him off to the system. ( instead of being the same age as YJ in the original fic, this time when he is found he wasn’t done being artificially aged so he’s like 9/10 so Tim never really got on friendship level with the Team and was more seen as just a child) once sent off he ends up being adopted by a nice family in Amity park (Valarie’s AKA Red Huntress’s family). Bruce checks up on him occasionally via internet but 4 years later Jason comes back as Red Hood so they kind of…forget about him...) During the first four years this time Tim has become close friends with Danny, Tucker, and Sam, and continues to be close friends with them, he was also there for Danny’s accident.) But Tim has continuously grown more and more bitter and angry with Bruce especially as he keeps finding new vigilanties joining Batman, Bruce adopting more kids, feeling like Bruce simply didn’t want him specifically that Bruce just didnt like or want him at all, but was perfectly happy to adopt other kids. Around age 15 1/2 things start to get bad in amity the calls to the Justice league for help are ignored the calls seen as pranks, creating more and more bitterness and fury towards the Justice league as a whole. Tim soon joins his adopted sister to help fight the ghosts and the GIW, Specifically when Red Huntress joins Team Phantom ( with his tech skills he both builds a suit of his own and helps upgrade Valarie’s as an F U to Vlad) his moniker is ‘ Onyx Hunter’ ( Feel free to come up with a better moniker) to match his sister’s ‘ Red Huntress’. ( his suit is varying shades of grey with bright green visor) around the age of 17-18 a year or two years after the GIW has completely locked down the town and erased it from internet and map existence, Batman finally tries to check on him, only to find all the walls and shutdowns by the government and he goes to Amity along side Nightwing, Robin, Black Bat, and Signal, to check things out. This leads to Tim meeting Bruce on a rooftop for an very angry and bitter speech/argument that ends with “You didn’t care before and you definitely don’t get to care now Batman” the title spit with viciousness and venom, a bo staff extending in his hand and slamming one end against the roof top as it crackles with green ecto energy “ you don’t get to play savior and hero when its beneficial or convenient for you. Pack the fuck up and take your goddamn flock with you, Team Phantom doesn’t need you” where then he turns during the last sentence and steps onto the hoverboard that he had called with a click of a button, the Onyx Hunter suit forming around him as he sends one last furious glare back at Bruce before flying off.

I kinda was feeling angry and bitter so I decided to write this

Please let me know if you or anyone you know adds onto or writes this :):)

[atomicsheepscientist]

I kinda want to see the Batfam from a No-Capes AU meet a Cryptid-Batfam.

Like, they are opposite sides of the same coin. I think their meeting would be interesting

Cryptid!Bruce: *chitters and chirps in creepy bird/bat-like language*

Normal!Bruce: Oh my, you say you fight crime at night? That sounds quite exciting! I once considered becoming a crime-fighter myself, but Alfred convinced me to devote myself to the company and humanitarianism instead.

Normal(?)Damian: and your father also denies you the privilege of stabbing people? Really?

Cryptid!Damian: *annoyed chitters*

Normal Dick challenges Cryptid Dick to a bend-off. It is disturbing, and those unfortunate enough to observe question if Normal Dick is actually a human. Humans shouldn't be able to bend like that.

Normal!Tim: And you say sleep is optional for you... How did you say you became a cryptid?

Cryptid!Tim: *smirking and starting to lead his counterpart to the batcave*

Both Jasons: Fuck no, you two separate right this instant.

Normal!Cass and Cryptid!Cass have a silent convo via staring.

The two Stephs have disapeared. Whomever notices first will start a mad panic of finding them. The Dukes are also missing, but this isn't noticed until it's too late

[breannasfluff]

Prompt idea:

Bruce is supposed to do a nude photo shoot to keep up his persona. His kids come up with increasingly convoluted ways to keep it postponed. Even Jason gets into it.

No thank you, they don’t want to bleach their eyeballs.

[the-fyre-flie]

I feel like people don't consider where the batkids sleep in the manor enough. Like in WFA, it's clear that Duke has his own room, which implies the other full-time Wayne kids do too, but I wanna like... see them more often. I wanna know what kinda of posters and decorations Jason had before he died. I wanna see if Damian ever actually settled into his room. I wanna see evidence on if Dick used to sleep with stuffed animals or not. I wanna know if Tim has a Conspiracy Theory Board on the wall of his room. I want to know more about these characters, including their sleeping habits and decoration preferences.

[arandomao3user]

. . . F-#&# YOU!

*Makes AU where Alfred brings Julia Pennyworth over to raise alongside Bruce after the Wayne's died, but I don't know anything about Julia Pennyworth outside she has Daddy issues and mad skills.*

—

Look, I just think it'd be neat if they were the same age and Bruce and Julia grew up together as siblings and Alfred was a good Father to both of them and probably didn't get Bruce therapy but it's fine because he is a single Father of two—

Kid! Bruce: I will avenge my parents deaths when I am older...

Kid! Julia, promptly sticking her foot in his face as the less traumatized sibling: REVENGE MY FOOT!

Kid! Bruce: AAAAAALFRED!!!!!!!

—

Adult! Bruce, as Batman: I am vengeance, I am the night... I am—

Adult! Julia, as Bumble-Bat (chosen after the Bumblebee bat, the smallest bat breed, small like pennies, I don't know, someone think of a better name—): THE DORK KNIGHT! BOOTMAN!

Bruce: I literally hate you.

Julia, mocking: I literally hate you!

—

Bruce, showing up with Dick:

Julia, who stayed home from the circus sick: Dude.

Dick, pointing to a chandelier: Can I climb that?

—

Bruce in his teens left to begin training to become Batman while Julia focused on her studies, knowing someone had to keep their poor Father from having a hart attack while Bruce ran around the world training. Julia learnt how to use a gun and became skilled in computer hacking, she also is a master in stealth and can operate air crafts (look to canon skills, man...)

Julia later joined Bruce near the end of his training, surprising him by showing up and declaring she wanted to work alongside him and be a vigilante. Bruce was less than amused.

—

Dick was a total Father's boy, shut up, Dick was Bruce's annoyance, Jason however adopted by Bruce, was all his aunts child.

Julia: . . . Don't tell Bruce and I'll teach you to shoot one of the big guns.

Jason, gasping: REALLY!?

Julia: I did when I was your age, not a big deal.

Jason: YES!!!

—

Jason, knocking on Julia's door: Auuuunt Juliaaaaaaaaa, I need help with my math homework!

Julia: Ask your Dad!

Jason:

Jason: AUNT JULIAAAAAA!!!

—

Julia: My Dad let me have my first beer around your age.

Jason, thirteen: REALLY!?

Julia: Sure, why not?

Jason: YES!

*30 minutes later...*

Jason, head in a toilet bowl, crying:

Bruce: JULIA, WHAT IF HE HAS ALCOHOL POISONING!?

Julia: I DIDN'T THINK HE'D DRINK THAT MANY!

Bruce: HOW AM I GONNA EXPLAIN THIS TO HIS SOCIAL WORKER!?

Jason: I don't feel so good...

Julia: I mean, I owe you fifty bucks no?

Jason: Nice...

Bruce, wondering when he had to he the responsible one:

—

Julia: Why do you get all the Robin's? Maybe I want a Robin.

Bruce: No, he's mine.

Julia: Dad! Bruce isn't sharing his Robin's!

Bruce: He's my adopted son!

Julia: He's my adopted nephew!

Alfred: Children, please...

Jason: Would I have to go by Bee Bird if I was aunt Julia's sidekick?

Julia: That's actually cute—

Bruce: No, we aren't sharing.

Julia: Buzz kill. Total. Buzz kill.

Dick, from the background, snickering:

Bruce: PUN NOT INTENDED!

Julia: It was, actually.

—

Bumble Bat! Julia, kneeing a trafficker in between the legs:

Robin! Dick: That one probably stung!

Julia, giggling:

Bruce: Please, stop.

—

Julia, THE stealth Queen prior to Cass:

Tim, holding a camera:

Julia: Is it my turn for the sidekick distribution system?

Tim: I have... I have parents...

Julia: BATMAN, I GOT ONE!

*Tim was returned to his home but Julia never forgave Bruce for not letting her keep him*

—

After Jason's death

Julia, holding Bruce's hand and leaning on him while they stand in front of Jason's grave, holding an umbrella in her free hand as rain falls down on them: It wasn't your fault, B.

Bruce:

Julia: He knew we loved him.

Bruce: He didn't...

Julia: He did.

Bruce: What if he hated me? In those final moments, what if he hated me?

Julia: He didn't, Bruce, he didn't... He loved this family. He loved us, and we loved him, so much...

Bruce:

Bruce: I wanna stay out here for a while.

Julia: I have time.

—

Bruce, a week or so after his parents deaths, curled in a corner and refusing to eat:

Julia: Bruuuuuuucie, c'mon, it's dinner! You're gonna get sick if you don't eat.

Bruce: I don't care..

Julia: Well, I do.

Bruce: Well, I don't.

Julia:

Julia: Guess I get all Dad's cooking then! :D

Julia: AND dessert.

Bruce:

Bruce: But... But I want dessert...

Julia: Y'know Dad's rules! No dessert without supper.

Bruce: . . . Fine, but I'm only eating a little bit!

Julia: Fiiiine, picky.

—

After Jason dies Bruce is super from killing the Joker by Superman, but Bumble Bat had no issue with killing, she had no traumatic experiences, her parents were alive and well, and she doesn't hesitate to find the Joker and kill him five times over. Julia doesn't hesitate to rip off her cowl and scream for him to look at her, see her and see the face of the woman she took everything from, the man who hurt her family and HER brother, she doesn't hesitate to use the same crowbar to leave indents on the Joker's face, to leave him gurgling on his own blood and still drop to her knees to slam her fists into him till he's dead with no hopes of returning, and even then she screams into the night and begs for her nephew back...

—

Julia and Bruce have a brief falling out after he finds out she killed the Joker, him arguing they weren't judge, jury, and executioner and that it didn't do anything. Julia argued she wasn't trying to play either three rolls, but let Jason rest soundly in his grave... She ran off for a hot minute to train solo in various countries, eventually landing in Hong Kong, where she coincidently finds Cass and saves her from David Cain's idea of Fatherly love and trains her as her own side kick, Black Bat.

—

Julia returned home, once, briefly to make her disgust over Bruce training Tim clear, and again permanently when Jason is revealed to be alive and resenting Bruce for not being the one to avenge him. Julia rekindles her relationship with Bruce and Jason, though Jason and Bruce remain on rocky waters since Jason refuses to kill. Julia doesn't move back into the manor though, instead settling down in a penthouse with Cass to continue training her and being her Mother figure.

—

Cass and Jason both love Julia. Cass however doesn't agree with her morals, more so aligning with Bruce's, and loves Julia, but is THE petty cousin toward Jason.

—

I just think it's neat. (Feel free to add whatever you'd like to this AU, I am just obsessed with the idea of Julia being the happy sunshine sister with Bruce being the grumpy, sad brother and just. That dynamic.) (This AU is public domain, please, don't make me write it.) (Go crazy.) (Please don't flop and please like this idea as much as me.) (IT HAS POTENTIAL, MAN!!!)

[lunamugetsu]

Do you think Bruce keeps track of all of the members of the batfamily by using the number system? Like when a family with 2+ kids, the parents keep track of their kids by just counting their heads. (1,2, 3,etc)

Like there's a Justice League meeting/briefing, and Bruce needs to bring basically all of the members of the batfamily to the watchtower to attend the meeting. And when they're all ready to leave. Bruce just does a mental headcount on everyone as they're leaving. (Yes, even the adults of the batfamily are included in the headcount) Batwoman, Azrael, and Batwing are not exempt from headcount just because they're adults. If they're a member of the batfamily, they are included in the headcount.

And when they all meet in the Batcave, Bruce does another head count just to make sure that he didn't leave any of the kids behind or that one of the kids stayed behind. Because one time Stephanie snuck away from the group and proceeded to superglue all of the cabinets in the cafeteria in the Watchtower shut because Green Lantern and her had a difference in opinion on which tv show was better.

The counting comes in handy when one day an extremely sleep deprived Bruce, that is running on nothing but coffee and two hours of sleep for the past week. When bringing all the batfamily members into the batcave, he realizes that the headcount is one more than there should be.

Prompt for later use from a convo with Bones + sandwich man (I am so sorry it's almost 12 am and I cannot remember your name sir) during a movie

Red = me, purple = sandwich, white = bones

"Do you think Batman gets all the bats he uses vaccinations so they don't, like, y'know, get rabies?"

"Well- He just calls all the bats in the city, it's just a special frequency he uses to call bats."

"That'd cost him like millions."

"Yeah but like, he's all against getting innocents harmed if he can so like. He'd feel bad if someone got RABIES and died cause of him!"

"Wayne Enterprises starts up and the first thing to be made is a new and improved rabies vaccine!"

(A couple minutes later)

"I imagine he has very small ear tags, like how cows have them, for every bat in the city so he can keep track of newer ones or like, their kids, for vaccines."

A new bat shows up and Batman is caught wrestling the little fucker in an alleyway trying to get the ear tag on and get him vaccinated

DC Prompt #1

In this au, Robin doesn't appear until after Batman and Superman have met each other.

And looking at how...bright Robin is there are 3 theories:

Batman is just some guy. He respects Superman and thus, adopted a kid that embodied his optimism

Batman isn't human and he just liked Superman so much he poofed Robin into existence.

Robin is made from a piece of Superman and Batman. In hopes of brightening Gotham or something???

Inspired by this thread.

[peerlesshamster]

Bruce should have an insane spice tolerance (you can't tell me he didn't eat like locals on his training years and he didn't train himself to after an embarrassing incident with his British food oriented taste buds getting incinerated).

Anyways, no one knows until someone tries to prank him and he doesn't react at all. This keeps repeating until he gets tired of getting his food altered and simply starts snacking on Carolina reapers publicly.

(The batkids/ JL questioning how fair is to still call him human when the prank backfires and talking to him makes their eyes and noses itch)

Testing something

*after dealing with a mission*

Green lantern: Spooky with the 50 kids you have ᵗʰᵃᵗ ʸᵒᵘ ʰᵃᵛᵉ ᵃᵖᵖᵃʳᵉⁿᵗˡʸ ᵍᶦᵛᵉⁿ ᵇᶦʳᵗʰ ᵗᵒᵒ and your batgadgets how can you afford all of it?

Batman decides to mess with Hal again

Batman: Bruce Wayne sponsors me and in exchange I provide sexual favors.

Batman: How were you not aware of this? It is common knowledge.

Green lantern: NOW I KNOW YOU GOT TO BE FUCKING WITH ME!!!!!

Batman: Lantern lower your voice you are causing a commotio-

Green lantern: I WILL NOT- I UGh. (This is some serious horse shit)

Green lantern : Ain't no way Brucie motherfucking Wayne is your sugar daddy.

*Batman pulls out a collar written in gold "bruce's batty boy" and shows it to lantern*

Batman: I am not deceiving you Green lantern. I now must go Gotham needs me. *Dramatic cape flip and disappearance*

Bruce had that collar in his pockets for three months.

Baby Vampire Tim AU

Timmy is a vampire, a baby vampire specifically ( roughly 6-8 years old), and oh is he so very lonely. His parents are never around and long since fired the nanny. But he knows Bruce Wayne is Batman, and that the Batcave exists. So what does he do? At night he transforms into a bat and heads to the Batcave, sometimes spending entire weekends there to just watch, to listen. Just to feel less alone. At some point he is able to control/befriend the bats ( the actual animal bats) So why not use that to help Batman and Robin out on patrol? Nothing like a swarm of bats descending on you when Batman or Robin show up, or when in they’re in danger, which also only furthers the ‘ urban legend’ of Batman.

Feel free to make Bruce & or the rest of the batfam vampires ( it would be funny if Alfred was the only other vampire tho lol)

Matches sparking Rumors: Prompt

You know what I heard, Lil’ Robbie Malone has been seen sneaking out of Dick Grayson’s Bludhaven apartment, you think Robbie’s a rat or is detective Grayson not as squeaky as he wants you to believe.

Thats nothin, my auntie Sophia is convinced that Red Hood is actually Todd Malone, says he even took the name from Matches old boss.

I heard that Matches is Alvin Draper’s dad.

I could see Matches naming a kid Alvin, isn’t his daughter’s name Minnie?

I thought Minnie was Matches niece?

And you believed that? That man’s got more secret kids than Brucie Wayne.

I bet you twenty bucks to ask Tommy Prince and Andrea Abel if they’re Matches kids too.

No way, they’re always hangin around Lil’ Matches and that kid bites

The Perfect Family

Bruce discovered the show shortly after his parents died.

It was 12 seasons and had been filmed from the 1950s-60s. It was a classic sitcom about a man named Bruce (that’s how he’d discovered it) and his six children. Richard, Cassandra, Jason Peter, Timothy, Duke Marlon, and Damian Thomas.

Bruce spent years watching it to the point where he memorized every line and scene. Eventually, the line between this Bruce and him faded, him no longer being able to tell the difference.

He grew resentful, why should this Bruce have a family when he doesn’t? But of course, TV Bruce had gone out and found his family, Regular Bruce just needed to do the same. There had to be at least one child with one of those names in Gotham.

Other facts about this AU:

Their names are all super long so they can call each other names (Dick, Cass, Jason, Tim, Duke, Damian) not associated with Bruce and so their TV characters can be differentiated from them.

Six months passes every season and the kids are 15, 13, 12, 10, 8, and 4 in season 1. So by season 12 they are 21, 19, 18, 16, 14, and 10

Jason Peter was “killed off” in the season 6 finale for views, but he came back in the season 8 finale as he was a fan favorite character. Jason doesn’t talk about where Bruce sent him that year.

Cassandra had no lines in the show (misogyny) and was generally regarded as mute by the other characters, so Bruce made sure Cass wouldn’t talk. She keeps herself to sign language (and that’s only with her siblings) as he has threatened to cut her vocal cords if she talks.

Barbara and Stephanie are love interests for Richard and Timothy, but Dick/Babs and Steph/Tim are completely platonic. Steph and Babs are the least traumatized since while Bruce did grab them, they’re not on screen a lot so he mostly leaves them alone.

Alfred didn’t exist in the show so….. you can interpret that as you want.
