babe i love listening to you talk about things you’re passionate about so can you please infodump @ me <333 i am making grabby hands at your interests !!!!

i have finally found a worthy obsession mahwahaha (five months later)

prepare to meet the ✨batfam✨

batfam. Bruce Wayne/Batman’s kids (biologically, legally or emotionally)

*most of this is fanon aka ive never read the comics so if i get anything wrong politely let me live in my delusions :)

first up is one flipping boi!!!!

Richard “Dick” Grayson/Robin/Nightwing/Batman

my best boy was an acrobat with his family’s circus The Flying Graysons before his parents were murdered in front of him. then he uh-well he wanted revenge <3

queue Gotham’s very own “i work alone” Batman finding and adopting him! since he couldn’t stop the little dickhead from going feral he decided to train him in a non-lethal brand of justice!

if you will please imagine the big scary mono chromatic Batman randomly showing up with a flippy, quippy 8 year old in a primary red shirt, bright yellow cape and green trapeze shorts <3 the very first Robin! (the nickname his mom gave him🥺)

i don’t know about you but I’d be more afraid of the slightly murderous child :)

as Dick got a older he took on the new mantle of Nightwing and starting vigilante-ing in the neighboring city of blüdhaven where he is also a detective (the name Nightwing has something to do with Superman’s home plant of Krypton)

he also briefly donned the infamous bat costume when Bruce Wayne died (but he’s good now👍)

now Jason!!!!!! (Todd) Robin/Red Hood

young Jason gained The Big Bad Bat’s attention when he stole 3 of the tires off the batmobile (he was going back for the forth🤫) he was quickly adopted and the train as the second Robin <3

Jason unfortunately died when he was 15 😔

but he came back but much like Pet Sematary he came back wrong :/

happy smiley Jason is now angry crime lord Red Hood *sign*

he eventually came around to being only-slightly-murderous vigilante Red Hood but it took a while

yay i get to talk about Tim Drake now!!!!! Robin/Red Robin

after Jason’s death (and Dick’s estrangement) Bruce was in a very very dark place but never fear Tim Drake is here! he single-handedly pulled Bruce out of his depression and convinced him that he needed another Robin :)

now a couple things you must know about Timothy is that

1. he’s an ultra mega super stalker (it’s how he figured out Batman, Nightwing and Jason!Robins secret identities)

2. he’s a caffeine addict

(not necessarily in the order)

+ hes a bit sleep deprived

he later became Red Robin in his late teens <3

(also since he had a parasocial relationship with the Wayne’s he grieved Jason while the rest of Gotham thought he just quit so something🥺)

i’m not actually sure where on the list to put Duke Thomas/Signal because most fic writers only mention him in passing😫 either way he’s very sweet and the only daytime crime fighter plus he has powers!!!!

unfortunately not many fic writers the girls💔 but there is a forth Robin! Stephanie Brown she was fired from that role after a few month and is now Spoiler!

there’s also Cassandra Cain/Batgirl/Orphan/Black Bat who was trained by her father to be an assassin before she ran away <3 all of the batkids learned sign language for her🥺

and Barbara Gordon who was the original Batgirl before an accident that left she in a wheel chair now she goes by Oracle!!!!!! i love her so much <3

NOW FOR MY FAVORITE ROBIN!!!!!!

Damian al Ghul Wayne !!!!!!!

often called demon brat hes the son of Batman and the head of an assassin cult !!! he’s my favorite angry lil stabby boy🥺 he’s mixed martial artistwith a very formal way of speaking, a gymnast, an artist plus an animal loving vegan!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️

he first became the fifth Robin after Bruce died and while Dick was Batman! he may we tolerate most of his siblings he has a soft spot for his eldest brother🥺

there’s also the baby Terry McGinnis. that all i know about him

in summary Bruce adopts dark-haired traumatized kids instead of going to therapy :)

@rosyfingereddawnn have i mentioned lately that i love you very much?🥺

#sorry if i rambled or if none of this makes sense much like tim drake i need a nap #also Damien’s grandpa on his mom side) is the proud owner of Tim’s spleen <3

A nice surprise

18+. Minors will be blocked

A/N: this is kinda shitty but I thought it was still cute so enjoy.

CW: smut. Pet names, oral (M! And F!Receiving), finger stuff, kinda getting caught??? (Over comms), hair pulling.

Synapses: you and your best friend Jason spend Valentine’s Day in the bat cave, and boy is this Valentine’s Day different then any other. Smut

Valentine’s Day had always been an awful Holliday.

You’d grown up on the streets of star city, the lonely child of two members of the league of assassins. You had been a secret, but when you found out about another secret child you had been brutally executed.

Your parents had secretly revived you with the pit before dumping you in star city, untraceable and unknown to anyone, so you hadn’t grown up celebrating “Valentine’s day” it was just another day for you.

That was before you had attempted to beat the shit out of a certain redhead named Roy Harper in a fit of bloodlust.

He had brought you back to Ollie, who upon you calming down and explaining your past to him, had quickly called in the justice league to help figure out what the fuck to do with you.

Eventually it was decided that the only one who could handle you was the one and only Bruce Wayne, a billionaire by day and Batman by night with his own clan of orphans. Seemed like an amazing fit, minus the adoption this time.

The league had eyes everywhere, and could easily find forged adoption documents or anything of the sort. You were introduced to the public as a recently deceased family friend’s daughter, and it worked without raising any suspicion.

That was where you had met Jason Todd, a bookworm with a sharp tongue and enough sarcasm to overpower even Gotham’s most cynical of people.

You had always been close, bonding over books and music and movies, and your shared love of tormenting the others.

Valentines days in the manor were spent on patrol, the occasional sounds of barb and Dick “talking” back in the cave when they accidentally unmuted themselves on the coms. You and Jason would yell at them, telling them to fuck some other time, a time when you weren’t kicking the ass of Gotham’s most wanted.

When Jay died, you had been heartbroken. That’s what it took to realize you might have been in love with the one and only Jason Todd. It took four-ish more years of him being revived and fighting with bruce before ultimately returning to the manor to accept that yes, you definitely were in love with him.

It was your first Valentine’s Day with everyone back in the manor, with Dick visiting after a particularly bad breakup with Kori, Jason back on the good guys team, and you, Tim and Damian being there to hold down the Fort as always.

This Valentine’s Day was turning out to be unlike any other. You and Jason were the ones stuck at home after a few recent bloodlust relapses, with Dick, Tim, and Dami on the streets kicking ass.

“If I hear anything similar to what you told me about Dick and Barb I’m ripping my ear piece out and stomping on it,” Damian sneered over the coms, followed by a noise that sounded like a swift backhand to the back of his head and the muffled sound of Dick telling him off.

You looked over at Jay, stifling a laugh as he flushed slightly, or were you imagining it? You didn’t have time to tell before he quickly looked down and started pulling up cam footage around the city.

Two hours went by of basically nothing. It was the first time you and Jason had been in a room together and had barely talked, it was strange. Something felt off. You both sat on the small couch in the bat cave, Jason reading and you watching the security for anything you could tell the others.

“Happy Valentine’s Day by the way,” his voice was soft, but guarded, like those words were dangerous when spoken aloud.

“Never thought you were one to celebrate Jaybird,” you smiled at him and he flushed at the nickname, and this time you were certain you weren’t imagining it.

“Neither are you! Don’t forget that time you made Tim those secret admirer love hearts that said ‘eat an ass’ on them.” He laughed and closed his book and set it on the ground.

He ran his hands through his messy curls and smiled at you. It made your heart flutter.

“Yeah well B’s reaction when he found them was worth it,” you grinned at him as the computer started to beep. You both jumped up and raced to answer.

“What’s up B,” Jay’s voice rang through the echoing cave.

“Just checking in. We need a couple names ran through the system.” Bruce listed them off and you wrote them on a sticky note before writing each assigned patrol person beside it. Without even thinking you hopped onto Jay’s lap so you could sit and see what came up as he reached his arms around you and looked up the list one by one.

“Thanks you two,” Bruce’s voice rang out after Jason rattled off all the information you found, and Bruce thanked you guys, and ended the line between you and him until he needed it again. You were still sat on Jason’s lap and after you realized you stood up and blushed.

“What, didn’t like the seat?” He teased and you felt your face heat up even more. You replied without even thinking,

“Like the view a little better,” he was the one blushing now, looking up at you with a mix of shock and a little bit of excitement. He stood up and slowly moved towards you, bringing you closer to him than you had ever been outside of your wildest dreams. Then, it finally happened.

Jason pressed his lips against yours softly, and you immediately kissed him back. He was gentle, almost like he was holding himself back in case this would end up terribly. But you did not.

You deepened the kiss, biting his lip gently and earning a moan from him as you ran your hand along his abs through his shirt with his hands on your waist holding you close.

You swore you could melt under his touch, the fact that you were kissing him at all was enough to send your head spinning. After what felt like no time at all he pulled away, his lips slightly redder and a bit more swollen then before.

You pulled away from Jason and started kissing down his neck, his pupils blown out from the lust and adrenaline in his body. Your kisses went even lower as you hooked your fingers around the waistband of his suit pants and underwear, slowly unzipping his pants and freeing his hard cock from its restraints.

Fuck he was huge, way bigger then you thought he would be. You licked along his length, causing a loud moan to erupt from his lips as he tangled his hands into your hair. You wrapped your lips around the swollen head and slowly took as much as you could into your mouth, swirling your tongue as you sucked.

You stroked what you couldn’t fit into your mouth with your hand, picking up pace as he moaned and growled under your touch. He gripped your hair and moved you faster, almost choking as you adjusted to the new speed.

Soon he was coming undone, his breathing getting more ragged and his long cock twitching in your mouth.

“Fuck princess I’m gonna cum,” he moaned as he emptied his load into your mouth, the salty taste hitting your tongue as you swallowed it.

You moved your mouth off, his cock exiting your mouth with a soft pop. He pulled you to your feet and quickly pushed you back into the chair, pulling your legs apart and tracing his fingers up your legs.

“You gonna be a good girl for me?” He was teasing you now, and fuck was it turning you on. In this moment you were almost grateful that you had to wear your costumes (or at least a more “casual” version of it) even in the cave, just in case you had to leave on backup in a hurry. The tight black miniskirt was a blessing in this moment.

He slowly slipped your panties down your legs and pulled up your skirt, leaving you exposed. Goosebumps appeared on your skin as he slowly moved his fingers to tease your entrance.

“Already so wet for me princess, and all you did was suck my cock. You like having me in your mouth that much? Such a good girl.” His voice was like a purr as his fingers entered you, plunging into your heat as he moved to trace circles around your sensitive clit with his tongue.

His fingers hit a spot inside you that made you shake, your entire body filled with pleasure as he licked your swollen bud like it was his last meal. Soon you felt the knot in your stomach start to unravel, and you came all over Jason’s thick fingers and into his mouth.

But he didn’t stop.

Instead he kept eating you out, his fingers still working into your core as you moaned, whimpered, and let out half-coherent sentences of begging and his name.

“Gonna come again for me pretty girl?” He picked up the pace, the pleasure coursing through your veins as once again you lost control of your senses. Your vision blurred and your head became fuzzy as waves of pleasure flowed through you, cumming harder then you had in your life.

“Well this is turning out to be the best Valentine’s Day I think either of us have ever had. I’ve been waiting to do that for a long time.” Jason grinned as he slowly put your panties back into place and pulled your skirt back down onto your shaking legs. “You taste fucking amazing princess. Such a good girl for me.”

“I think we have some things we need to discuss when we get back,” Dick’s voice rang over the monitor, making both of you jump.

“Dick??? Who else’s line is fucking open.” Jason blushed a dark red as he snapped at his older brother.

“Mine,” Tim’s voice sounded off, the uncomfortable-ness like a blanket smothering his words.

“I’m smashing my ear peace,” Damian snarled.

You buried your head into the crook of Jason’s neck and flushed, wanting the floor to swallow the two of you up.

“You’re just mad the girl I had in the cave actually fucking likes me dickhead,” Jay growled, making you laugh as Dick tried to argue.

“What’s going on?” This time it was Bruce’s voice on the comms.

And like good friends and siblings, the moment you all heard that the only thing you could say was a choir of sharp,

“NOTHING B. Everything’s fine.”

May I introduce the Tumblr DC community to one of my two favorite Batfam AUs I have created. Bruce Wayne owns a hotel/museum near an ocean cliff and still has a chronic adoption problem but doesn’t fight crime. (If anyone writes this you can make it to where heroes still exist, the Batfam are the inly no capes)

WE still exists but it isn’t run by Bruce it is run by Lucius because back in the 60s Thomas and Martha bought the hotel and wanted that to be their legacy. They still die the same way but Bruce puts all his efforts into running and blossoming the hotel which was his parent’s dream project.

I’ll get back into the hotel in a minute I’m taking about the kids now

Dick is gotten a similar way, he visits the Cape with Haly’s Circus, his parents die because of faulty wiring sold to the circus by Zucco and Dick becomes an orphan. Bruce just so happened to use his one night off in a while to go see the circus. He keeps thinking about Dick and ends up adopting him. He helps Dick and the Circus bring Zucco to justice and sues the hell out of him and shuts down his business. (Adopted at 8))

Jason was found living in one of the shut down rooms of the hotel. Because his dad left and was in prison and his mom od. So Bruce treats him like a wild animal and starts to leave food out on a regular schedule until Jason gets comfortable with him and he adopts Jason. (five years younger than Dick)

Tim was the son of two wealthy archaeologists who were gone 11 out of the 12 months. Bruce met Tim because he liked to come into the museum and take pictures of the museum exhibits and hotel architecture and shoreline which he would develop and give copies to Bruce. So he opens his house to this little boy with a penchant for photography. Until one day Tim’e parents call Tim telling him that they are staying in Egypt permanently because the archeological dig is producing wonderous results and they’ll be hiring him an around the clock sitter. Only for Tim to wait three weeks and no one shows up. They went so far as to fire Ms. Mac but never hired a sitter for their son. So he goes to Bruce in tears and explains everything, because this is it-his parents finally did abandon him, and Bruce sues them for custody of Tim. (Three years younger than Jason, adopted at 7)

Damian was the result of a relationship Bruce had in college while studying hotel management and hospitality. Talia is the daughter of a hotel conglomerate owner who is currently trying to buy Bruce’s hotel so it can be torn down and Ra’s can built a new hyper expensive hotel in its place. Damian was sent to live with Bruce to try and get Bruce to have Damian inherit the hotel so Ra’s can get it and destroy it, but that backfired because instead Damian falls in love with the hotel and his new family (reluctantly) and wants to see the hotel and museum flourish, not tear down this historical piece of architecture to replace it with a soulless hotel only available to the wealthy elite. But something available to everyone that families vacation to because there is so much history and beauty in a thing that has stood for centuries. So Damian turns against Ra’s. Due not that while Damian and Tim do have a sibling rivalry it is not as vicious and cutting as it is in canon. They love each other they just don’t mesh well while in the same room. And yes, Damian still has his variety of pets (7 years younger than Tim)

Cass came to the hotel with her “father,” David Cain, who went to the Cape for business, and just ended up leaving and forgetting Cass at the hotel. He was still abusive and Cass had trouble speaking but he wasn’t “turn Cass into the world’s greatest assassin” abusive. After Bruce finds Cass, he sues Cain for parental custody and then ruins his life unrepentantly. (Couple of months older than Jason)

After Martha and Thomas died, Alfred took over managing the hotel while Bruce was still growing up and while he was getting his degrees, now he is the grandfather to Bruce’s many kids and helps to keep them running and cared for while they run and care for the hotel. He’s also the one that helps the new kids transfer into the life of running a hotel.

Barbara is the daughter of the Police Comissioner still who became friends with Dick and works, first part time at the museum/hotel and then full time. Same with Steph and Tim (1 year older than Dick)

Cullen and Harper work at the museum, Helena works at the hotel. Carrie does both. Duke is the newest acquisition. Only, his parents disappeared and no one has been able to find them yet. So Bruce currently had temporary custody of Duke who lives at the hotel with everyone. (Harper is a year older than Tim, Cullen is a year younger than Tim, Carrie is the same age as Jason, Duke is a few months younger than Tim)

Each person has different jobs. (Dick is concierge/check-in, Jason does guided history tours of the hotel/museum/grounds, Tim works in financials because he deals with the least amount of people, Helena, Carrie and Steph are both maids, Carrie also does janitorial stuff with Cullen, Barbara works hotel check-in with Dick, Barbara and Harper work cashier at the gift shop, Duke doesn’t have a job yet because he is still dealing with the disappearance of his parents, Damian does every job to see where he fits in best.

JARRO IS THE FAMILY PET STARFISH THAT TIM ADOPTED WHEN HE FIRST JOINED THE FAMILY AND RESCUED FROM BEING EATEN OFF THE BEACH

The hotel is still fully staffed with not-batkids, like grounds keepers and other hotel cleaners and janitors.

Location time!

I’m turning Gotham nicer and changing the geography of the city.

The hotel Museum rests about 200 yds from a cliff that overlooks a beach. There is a well maintained stair case put into the cliff for people to walk down, as well as a longer gravel path that follows the cliff edge down to the shoreline. It is frequented by seals, sea lions, and in the distance, dolphins and whales. The hotel it’s self has about 100 or so acres of land and a long drive but it is technically within walking distance to the city. And it’s a normal coastal town with a port and touristic areas. Kinda eerie at night when the fog rolls in but that’s part of the charm of the NorthEast.

Selina is just Bruce’s friend in this. She is Helena’s mother and Bruce was a surrogate for her. She decided she wanted a baby and Bruce offered to be a donor. So Selina had Helena and Bruce is part of her life but not as her dad, which was the agreement. Selina takes care of the stray animals on the grounds and favors the cats.

Clark is a reporter that was tasked to right an article on the hotel and it’s history, became good friends with Bruce and brings his family (Lois, Jon, Bizarro, Kon, Kara, Lena, Chris, Ma, Pa, and Lex) on vacation to it every year. Lex and Clark are divorced husbands that left on good terms and are friendly enough to coparent their son, Connor, who was made the same way as canon but less hush hush and illegally, Kara is Clark’s cousin and Lena is her fiancée, Lois is his wife, Jon and Bizarro are their two biological sons (Bizarro has autism), Chris is their foster son. Bizarro latches onto Jason in a way that he hasn’t before and always loves coming to the hotel, Jon and Chris are best friends with Damian, Connor and Tim are long distance dating.

Collin, Maya, and Maps are Damian’s best friends from school (Damian has a crush on Collin) and he’s trying to convince them to join the hotel staff like his siblings’ friends but they are a) too young and b) not interested.

Roy has all of his problems as in canon and gets help for it, so as a way to try and bring the family closer, Oliver and Dinah arrange a vacation to the hotel for them Roy and Lian. As a stepping stone kind of thing. Get away from daily stress. Roy is resistant at first until he and Jason hit it off and start talking and Jason talks sense into him and they strike up a friendship turned romance.

The Flashfam visit the museum diring a countrywide roadtrip and mad the stop because Bart is a history buff and wouldn’t stop talking about it the entire trip. He becomes fast friends with Tim and is the only person to ever get a Tim Wayne history tour. No matter what Kon tells you he is super salty about it. Wally and Dick were internet friends and used the roadtrip as a way to be able to meet up.

Thad is the obligatory complainer who doesn’t want to stay in a musty old hotel.

Ivy is the main grounds keeper and is in charge of the native wildlife sanctuary most of the land is used for, as well as taking care of the native plantlife and lives in town with her girlfriend, Harley. Harley helps the kids prank Bruce.

Harley is a children’s psychiatrist hired by Bruce to help the kids deal with their various traumas. Her coming to the hotel for sessions is how she and Ivy met.

They started dating between Dick and Jason and Dick talks up each of them to the other, but each individual kid that comes in think they’d be cute together (since they are both professional while working there isn’t immediate proof that they are dating. But they will flirt with each other if they see each other) and it’s basically a right if passage to try and convince their siblings to help them get together and then try and set them up on their own and find out the hard way that they’re already together. They love seeing all the different way the kids try and set them up. They tend to go along with it until either the kids realise or they take pity on them.

Their favorite was Damian’s where he set up an entire romantic dinner at the hotel restaurant and Dick managed to slyly convince him to set it on a certain day that turned out to be Harley and Ivy’s anniversary.

Alfred is the head chef for the hotel, making room service meals and the breakfast buffet line up. Jason will help him out if he isn’t busy with other things.

Victor Fries and his wife hold an ice cream social ever summer at the hotel with all the ice cream flavors they came up with over the last year.

Edward Nygma, famous escape room designer, is hired to make an escape room themed on the hotel and museum that is built on the grounds near the main building.

Another ritual that starts, begins with Tim, where the older siblings convince the newest one that the hotel is haunted and Jason takes them on a “haunted ghost tour” of the abandoned part of the hotel (the part that is too dilapidated and run down to remodel safely) while the others are stationed at different parts of the hotel and grounds to run whatever scenario to scare the new kid. The only one that hasn’t been done to is Cass because even after several years she still jumps a little too hard at loud noises. But one time Jason accident closed a door a little too harshly while Cass and Tim were doing something and it caused her to jump so hard she knocked over Tim and started crying. They were contemplating whether she was strong enough to do it or not and that cemented that she wasn’t.

Tim and Cass are nearly inseparable and are commonly referred to as the Wayne Twins. For Halloween they decided to go as each other.

BatFamily mental health check(oldest to youngest because I want it that way):

Btw they all have varying types of PTSD.

Bruce suffers with really bad paranoia, anxiety , C-PTSD and has plans for pretty much anything bad that could happen no matter how likely or not it is. He prefers to ignore his mental health instead of properly dealing with it, because that’s what fighting bad guys of for. He also has an addiction to adopting orphans probably due to his isolation and lack of family in his younger years. Favorite coping method, you think Bruce knows what a coping method is??? It’s probably coming up with more defense plans for if the justice league/other heroes/villains ever learned of his or his families true identities and how he’s defend against any of them potentially attacking him or his family.

Dick stresses tf out all the time and also tends to have decently bad anxiety and c - ptsd but also has to usually be the leader/care taker with his family and friends so bottles up his stress and anxiety a lot and tries his best to deal with it on his own. Favorite coping method, gymnastics or meditation.

Jason, oh god where do I start with him. He has really bad anger issues, depression, paranoia, trust issues, C-PTSD, and anxiety along with probably some more stuff. He doesn’t deal with any of it very well and it tends to make him EXTREMELY irritable. You thought that little puff of white hair was just from him literally dying that one time? Nah bitch it’s probably from stress! Favorite coping method, buying weapons, hanging with buddies, guns, beating someone shitless, or sometimes all of the above.

Timothy, super bad insomnia that is probably cause by his anxiety, depression, c-ptsd and adhd. There’s a reason this kid is such a good detective and it’s because he hyper fixates on his cases. Against doesn’t deal with any of this very well and he usually just exhausts/overworks himself. Favorite coping method, coming up with new ways to grow Wayne industries or hacking into random government servers.

Duke, surprisingly probably the most mentally stable and healthy out of the entire family. He deals with a regular amount of depression and probably an above average amount of anxiety and ptsd just due to being a vigilante. Deals with it very passively and usually is pretty good about it not overwhelming him. Favorite coping method, sports or junk food, sometimes both.

Damian, his favorite coping method is getting pets, that’s why he has so many. Poor boy definitely has C-PTSD, BAD anxiety, trust issues, LOTS of emotional instability, and probably a lot more than just that. He actually surprisingly deals with his issues decently but passively/unconsciously through meditation and taking care of himself physically. He never lets things overwhelm him in his normal day to day life but out on the field if things get incredibly hectic and everything starts going to shit Damien may start to crumble are in turn that may be one of the only times he will actively lean on others for support, literally and figuratively. OH HE ALSO HAS MOMMY ISSUES, and daddy issues because lets be honest Bruce isn’t a perfect dad, he’s kinda lacking.

New fic personal prompt xd

The Parent Trap AU - No Capes (?) - ABO (Omega!Bruce Alpha!Clark) Jon and Dami are twins. Jon lives with Clarkin Smallville, in the farm, and Dami lives with Bruce in Gotham, in the manor. They got to a camp. They go to the same contest because of a new school program. A camp. And Dami's "friends" (they're not friends) make fun of Jon cause he looks just like Dami, and Dami doesn't like that. And his friends tease them even more because everyone knows about Bruce Wayne's adiction on picking up dark haired blue eyed boys from the streets. "Does this mean you've got a lost family, Dami?" "Maybe you're also an orphan and Bruce couldn't take both of you" "At least all your brothers understand that, eh?" "Maybe your original parents abandoned you two on different places".

Dami is not amused. Jon is a little scared of city mice.

Something happens - an activity or something program related - and they get paired up. They receive some odd looks from the adults because they look alike and they constantly mix up the last names but in the end, they don't do much because they have like hundreds of kids and not so many adult hands.

In one of their tasks, Jon starts talking about his dad and life on the farm, then he asks Damian about his life and his own dad, at which Dami tells him he doesn't have a dad

"of course you have a dad! Everyone has a dad!" "I mean I don't know him. Mother doesn't talk much of him, either." "Oh, that's sad. Dad doesn't talk much about my mom. I found a photo, though. Grandma let me have it, I'll show you when we get back!"

And oh surprise, the young Omega in the picture is no other than Dami's mother, so Damian frowns at the photo (in which his mother is carrying a dark haired baby in his arms and is smiling adorably at whoever took it) and takes his family carpet - the one where he's recording his family history - and finds the exact same photo as the day he was born.

Now he wasn't sure if it was him in his mother's arms.

Jon feels the tension and also shows him one photo of his dad, a tall grinning Alpha wearing glasses. Dami studies the photo and turns the pages in his carpet.

"This was mother's bodyguard when he was very young."

Jon agrees that, even without glasses, the Alpha behind Bruce Wayne looked exactly like his dad.

"So, what happened?" "Who knows, Jon. Mother never mentioned a relationship. Like I said, he never talks about any dad." "You mentioned brothers...." "Adopted. All of them. Older, too. And two sisters." "I wish I knew my mom. And our brothers? sisters. Well, they'd be mine too if mom accepts me. But maybe he didn't want me, and that's why dad took me." "It doesn't make sense. Mother has a lot of children. Why would he let you go with your father? Why would your father left us?" "It's not dad's fault!" "It isn't mother's either."

Dami is the one with the plan. He teaches Jon everything he knows about the family and lends him the carpet after making him swaer on his life to protect it, and Jon talks about his grandparents, and aunt Lana, uncle Pete, his dogs and the farm animals. Dami wants to see the farm, the animals, more than he wants to meet his father. Jon wants to meet his mom and his unoficial siblings, and the so called Pennyworth that raised his mom - "another grandpa!" "Pennyworth is no grandpa!"

Dami is happy wandering the farm, avoiding the Kents. Martha is worried, but Clark is absent minded. Then Dami finds out the reason Jon's dad doesn't seem to mind his boy's oddnes: He's going to marry some journalist - Lois Lane - and apparently move to Metropolis. Clark is allowing his kid to have as much fun in the farm as he can while it lasts.

On the other side of the country, Jon is having a blast. Every brother and sister discovered the plan in the first few minutes of meeting him, and they helped him trick Bruce and Alfred. Alfred discovers it first - probably when all the batkids are comforting Jon after THE CALL -, tears up a little, makes everyone swear not to tell, and has a talk with young Master Jon. They all agree that Clark's compromise stays a secret.

Jon confesses to Bruce.

There are tears and kisses and hugs and cuddles all around. Then Bruce asks worriedly about his pup, and sighs in defeat when Jon tells him that Dami went to meet his dad.

The whole family travels to Metropolis.

Meanwhile in Smallville, Dami rescues a small doberman. Lois is not amused, because they can't have pets in her apartment back in Metropolis and it seems like his fiancé's pup is not willing to leave his new pet behind. Martha promises the new dog will be safe when they get back, knowing something is up, but not wanting to spoil whatever her grandchildren had planned. Clark is worried about his pup, noticing the differences. Lois tells him it's normal on children his age (12) and that maybe he's simply rebelling against the idea of his dad marrying her - or anyone, they both lived twelve years alone with Clark's mother in the farm - "He'll get over it, Clark. He'll love Metropolis."

And so on...

The Son of the Demon and the Orphan (Why do we fall? So we can get back up.)

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/341QqlW

by templarhalo

Four months into her pregnancy with her son, Damian Wayne, Talia al Ghul, bumps into David Cain and his daughter and future successor Cassandra. Viewing David's methods as inefficient, and abhorrent. Talia kills her former associate and adopts his daughter as her own to mold into the perfect big sister for the perfect heir and future leader of the League of Shadows.

Unfortunately as her children get older, Talia is torn between her children's happiness and emotional wellbeing and the destiny she and her father want them to fufill

So Talia makes a call to her ex boyfriend, Bruce Wayne, the heroic crime fighter known as Batman. He hoards children like a dragon hoards gold, trains them and molds them into future heroes in their own right.

Surely her children will be safe from their increasingly unstable grandfather and be able to put their skills to good use with Damian's father?

(In which an already large family gets even larger. Bruce has to talk about his feelings and Alfred has no qualms kneecapping people with an AA-12 if it keeps his grandchildren safe. )

Hopefully My Last Rant About YJ Spinoffs for Now

Batman, BatFAM spinoff, please?

LEt’s see who we’ve got here.

Cassandra Cain, known as Orphan, Batgirl, Black Bat and other titles over the year. Bruce Wayne’s only adopted daughter.

Tim Drake, Robin, later Red Robin.

Then we finally have SPOILER! Stephanie Brown. She and Tim don’t seem to be a thing yet. Steph is Batgirl at one point and even Robin but Spoiler’s her main role. Her dad’s a villain, not top notch. She and Artemis would get along really well. Right now TIm’s dating Wonder Girl so it doesn’t seem like there’s anything with them. Guess he has a thing for blondes though?

Harper Row, later known as Bluebird shows up in a school in Happy Harbor. She’s a pro with electronics and is just really hardcore. I want more of her now please.

This woman and brilliant rep only showed up for a moment. Kate Kane, Bruce’s cousin, known as Batwoman was in the army. She’s dating her brilliant police officer girlfriend and is just amazing. She’s hardcore and badass, though a little less rough on the edges than her Wayne cousin. I really want to see more of her and soon!

There’s the OG of course. Bruce Wayne, as we all know. He’s delivered some good stuff this season so far. Can we all talk about that diss to Bane? And Batman Inc. is a thing! It’s a thing! And we know how he is about adopting kids. Dick’s just adopted several so now he has Grandkids! And he was already the OG YJ teams dad any way so he’ll have a few others soon by the way things are going.

There was this split second cameo. JASON PETER TODD! RED HOOD! HE’s remembering, and it’s his older brother that triggers it. I almost screamed! No white streak sadly. But his costume is like the newest one in the comics, though I’d love to see the leather jacket at some point. Just please reunite him with his family? Without the angst? We know that’s not possible but please?

Of course we have the original Dynamite duo as well. My all time favs, Nightwing and Batgirl, or Oracle now. Once Robin, now Dick Grayson is Nightwing and as I’ve been hoping for years seems to be dating Barbara Gordon! SHe’s been awesome as Oracle and they have amazing chemistry. I just want more of the two of them. They deserve they’re own show as well. Can that happen? Sign below!

Then of course there’s this! This made us all gasp and coo! It’s the tiny terror himself! The little Demon in the arm’s of the Demon’s Daughter! It’s Damian Al Ghul Wayne. Most know him as Robin. Batman’s only biological kid, at this point anyway, he’s only been around in comics for a little over ten years I think? We’ve all grown attached though. I can’t wait to see him making a connection with Dick Grayson. But then he’s gonna be so old? Can we de-age people and make age gaps like this smaller? I guess that’s what things like my fanfics are for. I really am excited to see Damian though. I love him so much.

Seriously. There’s so much potential here! We have most of the Batfam. We haven’t seen any Alfred yet this season, I can’t remember if we saw him last season either. There’s Duke, who’s pretty new to bring in, or Luke and his father Lucius Fox. More Jim Gordon would be great as well.

I want sibling fights! Nicknames and insults like Replacement and Dickhead, Demon child and all the others. I want Cass, Steph and Babara having girltime! I want them working together and sharing personal jokes! There’s so much that can happen with all of this. Family television shows are always amazing. Can you imagine watching the day to day lives of the Wayne clan?

Barbara being a computer expert or librarian and her fiancee or boyfriend working with her dad as a police? Damian trying to function in school and then with all his pets? Cass going to ballet? Jason arguing with everyone, maybe taking a little break to read and then terrorizing the criminal underworld? Tim going in to Wayne Enterprises and just completely taking it over with Steph there to cheer him on? Bruce just watching them all happily?

This is the content I need. Please make a spinoff happen! Wayne Galas, then patrols! Different sibling pairings working a case. There would be arguments, hugs and just all around chaos!

Say it with me! BATFAM SPINOFF!

Note

Damian adopts pets like Bruce adopts orphan. Do you think an impulse for adoption is in the Wayne genes and will Damian (if DC ever lets him grow up) adopt kids too as an adult?

I assume Damian currently sees him and Bruce as doing the literal exact same thing, at least as far as Todd and Drake go. When he gets older Morrison showed him as being Terry McGinnis’s mentor, so that tracks.

(Also, don’t know if you saw, I answered your other question the other day)

WAYNE FAMILY - victoria kithzia, recently adopted by Bruce Wayne. now apart of the elitests of gotham, and one of the most dangerous families in the galaxy. i decided it best if victoria and i became waynes because we both share common traits with the other family members. like theres almost a pattern that bruce goes for. for example, THE BATSONS Jason p. Todd the second oldest. has died and come back to life. broken family background, orphan. anger issues. kills people who harm others. teases his brothers a lot. literally a cliche badboy, smokes, rides a motorcycle and all that jazz. BUT isnt cold, or like a bitch - he can be nice and calm. richard dick grayson the eldest. pretty boy. literally looks like a fucking model, and has his entire life. ray of sunshine. kinda a manwhore. super cheerful. the den mother. optimistic, and the one each of the boys turn to. comes from a broken family. just wants to help others. the glue of the fam. Damian Wayne the only one blood related to bruce. youngest. most rudest. most brutual. hella anger issues. did i MENTION FUCKING RUDE AS HELL. l o v e s animals, owns like 25. one kick ass fighter. goes against bruces' commands. has died once. so fucking brave. Tim Drake NEVER SLEEPS, lives off coffee ( dick tries to get him to stop but it doesnt work) pro hacker. hecka smart, has hacked into the white house. a little shit. rivalry with jason. for the most part quiet. very skilled with a bo staff. just there. and like, imagine these four HIGHLY trained boys living under the same roof as kithzia nd victoria. dlfkgogo HEADCANNONS ☆ - i can so clearly imagine dick takes an immediate liking to victoria moreso then kithzia because she denies his advances for instance, hes tried hugging her before but she literally just walked off. - victoria and damian would FIGHT 24/7. its so annoying to everyone else, so dick is the only one who tries to break them up. never works though. - however, kithzia and damian hit it off pretty nicely. they typically just chill in the gardens ( cos rich bruce djdifi) and talk about school or play with damians many pets'. - i can imagine LOTS of bickering between jason, victoria and damian. lord have mercy. - tim downloads lots of illegal movies just for the fun of hacking. so it calls for movie nights every week. - the family is just made up of a bunch of brooding (save for dick) dark clothed people. - whenever bruce throws a gala, victoria and kithzia b looking 👌😭 dressed in black and/or red dresses imported from italy or something. - you didnt hear it from me but theres a huge rivalry between the kents' and the waynes'. - " theyre so snobby, just look at them" - clark kent. - hes not wrong. - it took a while for the boys and bruce to trust the girls with their nightly routines. (red hood, robin, nightwing, redrobin and batman) - the girls adjust fairly quickly and are thrust into training straightaway - kithzia is given the mantle of " batgirl" while victoria becomes "blackcat". - selena kyle LOVES them, she thinks of them as her daughters. - whenever they come back from long missions, everyone just passes out on the couches. alfred watches distastefully from the kitchen as he sips his tea. LMAO - dating¿ lmao yeah no, not on the boys watch. - sparring can get a little bloody between ( jason and tim, damian and victoria) so kithzia and dick try their best to clean them off. - Damian and Jon Kent fite even more then victoria and him do, so it usually takes jason, dick, kithzia AND victoria to break them up. - just a whole load of jdifififfi

Crafty Little Bird

Rachel Roth was very accustomed to doing chores around the house, she was a maid after all. She was employed by the Ander's family, but she a new one who was not needed.

Which was why she was now fresh off the boat and here to work for the Wayne family. Her uncle's war friend, a now butler to a prestigious American family, Alfred Pennyworth, had penned her uncle about needing help, and her father penned back saying how she needed a real job. It sounded like her uncle was kicking her out but he wasn't, Uncle Jack Williams was very kind to her, but money was getting tight. Rachel couldn't blame them for needing her out of the house, she was a spinster in the making. Her one suitor, a stable boy, Garfield Logan, had fallen hard for the hat shop keeper's daughter, Terra, and there were no prospects of marriage in Rachel's future. Also, her uncle had three children of his own to feed. She could not fault them for needing her gone, and she had graciously accepted Alfred's offer in exchange for half her wages to go to her uncle and family.

Rachel was the bastard child of a rape, her mother had died giving birth to her. Her father had been killed when she was fourteen by her hand when he came to take her away in the night and Rachel fought to live.

Rachel was really lucky her Aunt Alice had stepped in and taken her in, despite the village's claims of her being a witch child, and taken her in. But it was time Rachel left the nest, she was twenty-three, a spinster becoming, and Mary-Beth, Billy, and Jessica were coming of age and would need to be set up in good marriages. She would pay her uncle back for his kindness for everything he hadn't had to do, and accepted the job in the States at Wayne Manor.

Which was why she was walking off the boat, with her simple grey dress, and her hefty trunk of her measly belongings, and the family insisted essentials, and looking at a man older than her Uncle Jack dressed in a fine Butler suit.

"Miss Roth," he said.

"Mr. Pennyworth," she greeted.

"I am pleased you accepted the posting I had listed," Mr. Pennyworth said as she helped him load her trunk up.

"It's a wonderful opportunity, and everyone knows that the Wayne home is a good home," Rachel said as she sat on the carriage bench with Alfred.

"Yes, now, Mr. Wayne has four sons. Do not expect to see much of them, they are active young men. The eldest is Master Richard, the second is Master Jason, the third is Master Timothy, and the youngest is Master Damian," Mr. Pennyworth filled her in and Rachel listened attentively the entire ride from the Gotham docks to the Wayne Manor.

Rachel was to be the only maid for the family's private wing. None of the other servants, other than Mr. Pennyworth entered the area, and she was instructed to be as quiet and as invisible as possible in the care for the young Masters' rooms. Rachel had only obtained the position because of her uncle and the Ander's butler, Victor Stone, praising her ability to do her jobs without being seen. And Rachel frankly did not want the attention, she held no interests in courtship or marriage anymore, and she wasn't one to dally.

And thus, cleaning became her life, a life of silence as she cleaned up after the mysterious men she only caught glimpses of in passing.

Master Richard was a messy man, his clothes were often scattered about his room, and Rachel cringed at finding molding fruit beneath his bed. Also, his drapery was a tangled mess all the time, no matter, Rachel found that a thorough cleaning of his room, usually her Saturday was in order. She beat the rugs, scrubbed his floor, aired his mattress, cleaned his sheets, did his laundry, polished his shoes, and washed his drapes. His massive four post bed railing and the chandelier in his room were always covered in chalk for whatever reason and she found herself cleaning it every day.

Master Timothy was a hoarder, of all manner of things, from rubbish to books. He had countless notebooks scattered about the room and stacks of books. Rachel often times found a return trip to the library to return all he hoarded in order. Also, his room needed a thorough cleaning every three days, and not once a week. The only rule was she could not wake him, Master Timothy was an odd one who did not sleep all that much or eat, the number one rule of the Wayne house was one must never wake him wherever he was sleeping. If he fell asleep in the hall then one was to use another hall, if one found him in the library, or study, or parlor, they were to leave silently and immediately. Rachel knew him to go days without sleep before cashing and she usually just draped a blanket over him and left him be.

Master Damian was a hoarder as well as his brother, the only difference was Master Damian hoarded animals. The first time she walked into his room and saw a tiger cub on his bed she'd just about screamed before slamming the door shut. Immediately she spoke to Mr. Pennyworth about this, and soon Wayne Manor had a zoo for Master Damian's 'pets'. The tiger cub was not the last animal Rachel found hoarded away in Master Damian's room, in the first year she dealt with everything from rats to an elephant calf (she was still trying to figure out how Master Damian had smuggled that in without anyone noticing). She found a thorough cleaning of his room in order, daily.

Master Jason, the wanderlust child of Master Wayne's brood, was frequently gone. However, Rachel took out much time to clean and air his room. Even when Master Jason was home his room was always orderly and clean, as if he cleaned it himself. Rachel liked his room the best to slip into for a breather because so frequently it was empty, and no one would come looking for her in his room. His room was also filled with exotic books, journals, charts, and weapons, all very fascinating and she wondered where he went to, to get these.

Rachel's other charges were the Master's elderly parents, Master Thomas and Martha Wayne. A sweet elderly couple who often ignored her as she went about her duties. Though Mrs. Wayne sat Rachel down once a week for tea, because she was an old lonely woman. Rachel was drafted as Mrs. Wayne's hand maid more often times than not when the Waynes decided to host a party.

As to Rachel's final charge, that was Master Bruce Wayne, and he was a kind, scholarly man who was of keen intellect. Rachel thought him interesting, but she frequently found herself cleaning up after his dalliances the morning after parties. Rachel handled it with ease. All of Master's Bruce's sons were adopted or bastards, and no one in society breathed a word of it. Especially not when the family portrait of the Waynes showed four young men who looked a bit like Master Bruce, sharp blue eyes, and handsome features with thick black hair.

Rachel found herself busy in her new job from before dawn to past midnight, however she was paid handsomely for her discretion not to gossip about the family. Also, Rachel, a taught literate from her uncle, penned her family about her adventures in America once a week. Not that they were much in adventures, but life was never dull in the Wayne Home.

And for over a year that was her life, a life which ran her ragged, and had her falling asleep with her feet still in her shoes and propped on her room's stool as she lounged in a batter chaired she'd bought after her first wages.

The other servants of the house treated her with scorn but Rachel honestly did not care, she would spend her rare days off at a book shop in Gotham not too far from the Manor and read in her room by her window. Her attic room was rather cozy compared to what she had had, and it was the largest servant room aside from Mr. Pennyworth's.

But that brought her to her second year in America, and it was her day to clean the private library, she was standing on the top of a ladder as she dusted, her black hair pulled up, and her dusting tarps laid out as she worked on organizing the books properly as she went. No one was home today, it was Sunday and the Wayne family had a standing obligation with the city's orphaned children, they'd be gone all day. Which was why she picked today to clean.

Which was why the sound of the door bouncing open had her jumping as she spun on her ladder, wobbling as her ladder teetered, and gasped as she fell to straddle it so she didn't fall off.

"Sorry! Are you alright!?" a voice asked as she felt her shaking ladder still.

"I'm fine," she squeaked, refusing to look down, well aware that he could see her undergarments; whoever he was.

"Alright, why don't you come down from there little bird," the voice coaxed.

"I can't," she said primly as she scrambled to hold onto her minimal dignity. Still refusing to look down at the man. "And you should not be in this library, this is the family's library!"

"Um… I'm the family," the voice laughed which had Rachel looking down then and finding herself staring at Master Jason's laughing face.

"I apologize Master Jason," she said.

"No problem, now, get down, you're going to break your neck, little bird," he said firmly.

"Oh, well if it's an order from the Master then I must comply, but I am warning you I will only be right back on this ladder after you leave the library," she smartly replied, paling at her audacity to let her tongue loose rather than hold it. Still, she obeyed and stopped a few steps from the bottom. "If you'd be so kind as to move, Master Jason."

"Here," he offered her a hand and Rachel reluctantly accepted it as she hopped down and now dusted off her skirts as she looked up at Master Jason.

"What can I do for you Master Jason?" she asked as she bobbed her head and wiped her hands with her rag.

"Well first, you can introduce yourself little bird," he smiled.

"How rude of me, I'm Rachel Roth, the maid of the family quarters," she said simply as she finished cleaning her hands and clasped them before her.

"So you're the little ghost Al hired," Jason chuckled.

"Yes, if you do not require something, Master Jason I must insist on getting back to my duties as your family should be returning in exactly four hours and I need this room spotless for Madame Wayne," she said.

"I'll help," Jason shrugged. Raven stiffened as she felt the blood drain from her face. "I can't leave a lady to do the dirty work on a rickety ladder on her own now can I?"

"Yes, yes you can, Master Jason, I'm certain you are exhausted from whatever journey you were on, I will prepare you a bath, but I will then resume my cleaning, alone," Rachel stated.

"Sunshine, I'm not tired, and you are not cleaning in here, on that, unsupervised," Jason snapped.

"And the Master of the house should not clean," she retorted.

"How about a compromise, I've brought home tea, we share a cup of that, and then I hold the ladder, because you will fall and break your neck, and I don't think Grandmother would handle a dead body in the library very well," Jason stated.

"Very well, as you are apparently not leaving."

"Glad you see it my way," Jason smiled.

"I don't, I merely have tasks to finish and if humoring you will allow me to compete them sooner I will," she omitted. He laughed and she found herself being herded out of the library and to the kitchen as he made himself the tea. Rachel just sat there stiffly as she waited for him to complete his task, then he sat as he waited for the water to boil.

"So little bird, tell me about yourself," Jason said.

"There is nothing to tell," she replied.

"I doubt that, everyone has a story," he said.

"And for what purpose would you wish to know my story, Master Jason? It is a dreary tale anyway and not one worthy of being told," Rachel dismissed and he smirked.

"And why wouldn't I wish to know the tale about what made a maid so certain in her position in the house to dare to talk back to a Master of the house?"

"Oh, that is simple, no other maid would ever willingly work in the Wayne private quarters," she stated primly and he laughed.

"You seem quite sure of that," he mused.

"I am, no other maid would handle Master Damian's assortments of pets, or Master Timothy love of sleeping in the most unnatural of positions in the oddest places in the house, or Master Dick's mysterious need to tangle his drapery and have chalk all over his room and foot prints on his ceiling," she said with a straight face.

"You raise a fair point," Jason mused. "And what peculiarities would you mention of me?"

"Oh, those I dare not say, that would be gossiping," Rachel said as he handed her a cup of tea.

"And discussing my brothers with me isn't?"

"It isn't, in fact I figure you know a great deal more about your brothers than I, and therefore have learnt of nothing new from my information," she replied.

"Crafty little bird," he cheered her.

"But if I may, what is you do to acquire such a… unique, and exotic assortment of weaponry, and books," she said as she sipped the tea.

"I'm my father and grandfather's international agent for the family business," Jason said with a smirk.

"Is that so, must be a very interesting job," she mused.

"Well I have a natural gift for languages so it's a good job for someone of my skills," he said.

"I see," she nodded and sipped her tea.

"You don't want to know more?"

"I do, however I'm trying to finish this delicious tea quickly so I may return to my duties, I do not have time to discuss your job with you, Master Jason, when I have my own to attend to," Rachel said.

"At least your honest," he chuckled.

"Of course, I am, lying is tedious, and quiet exhausting," she sighed. He laughed.

"Careful little bird, I might like you," he warned.

"I doubt it, I am very dull compared to all the high bred society people you no doubt know, and to all the exotic people you must meet," she replied.

"You'd be surprised at how dull it all gets when everyone has a double meaning."

"That would be exhausting."

"As oppose to what you do?"

"I am a shadow, Master Jason, a very good little shadow who does her job and enjoys her days off to read," she confessed. "I am content to spend my days with books, who never lie as opposed to people who never say what they mean."

"You could teach the world a thing or two little bird," he said.

"Please stop calling me that, my name is Miss Roth," she said.

"I'm afraid I can't, sunshine, you see you look like a little bird, and I still see you wobbling on that ladder looking ready to fly," he said.

"I thought it was snap my neck," she dryly commented.

"That's if you had actually taken flight, but you're tiny enough I'm sure you could have flown."

"Well, the tea has been lovely Master Jason, but I must finish my chores." She informed him as she downed the last of the tea; wishing she could have savored it for it had been good, but she had work to do.

"Alright then, lead the way little bird," he gestured as he stood.

"You aren't…" she stared at him in horror.

"Oh, I am," he smiled. "And as Master of the house, you have to comply, let's go."

"You are the oddest of your peculiar brothers yet," she huffed and walked briskly back to the library where she resumed her work. The afternoon moved swiftly, Master Jason was excellent company and had thousand of book suggestions as she continued rearranging the books. It was when she finished and she was moving her supplies out that Mr. Pennyworth appeared.

"Ah, Master Jason, I was unaware you were coming home today," Mr. Pennyworth said.

"Sorry about that Al, however, I have had a wonderful afternoon with little bird here," Jason gestured to her and Rachel felt her cheeks heat a bit at the compliment.

"Master Jason I do not believe you've ever praised anyone so highly," Mr. Pennyworth announced.

"Of course not, which is why tomorrow, Miss Roth will have the day off and be accompanying me on my various errands," Jason smirked.

"I will?" Rachel blinked.

"Of course," Jason nodded. Her eyes narrowed peculiar man beside her.

"You are up to something Master Jason," Rachel warned as she glared at him.

"Of course I am, I'm going to have a wonderful day tomorrow with your exquisite company," he said.

"I'm afraid I cannot spare Miss Roth tomorrow, Madame Wayne will require a handmaid and Miss Roth is currently fulfilling those duties until I can find a suitable replacement for Miss Lane," he said.

"Tell Grandmother I'll make it up to her, and I got those pearls she loves," Jason smiled.

"Very well," Mr. Pennyworth said and gave her a smile, Rachel just sighed as she finished moving her equipment to the attic again. Jason helped her.
