Can you make headcanons? as Colins, Billy, Chris and Damian are adopted by Dick because of a superhero emergency and have to live as his children for 6 months, but after those 6 months they don't want to leave.

(I know some people think it's disrespectful to Bruce, but I don't think Damian being adopted would erase his relationship with Bruce, it's like "oh my gosh, now I have two dads") Sorry, english is not my first language

Of course!

don't worry actually my First language is portuguese so it's the same with me

I don't think it's disrespectful and come on Dick is a father figure to a lot of people

"Strays birds"

The justice league was in a mess, they needed to withdraw indefinitely to investigate the scarecrow and his new henchmen, and the worst the new gas mainly affected children,And then Shazam/Captain marvel was taken off the mission almost immediately.

Damian,Colin and Chris are 10, Billy is 12.

As the entire league was out this meant that Clark Kent would also be out for months, after a big selection Dick took it upon himself to take care of clark's foster son Chris.

After much insistence Dick manages to convince Billy to stay in his care too, emphasizing that Billy would still be independent of him, that was just an unusual situation for his own safety.

And just when Dick thought things had calmed down, Damian, his younger brother, Suspicious and constantly self-protective, but managed to open up to the two boys and his new older brother.

Colin came months later, when Damian on one of the rare outings found Colin, an orphan boy who was used in the experiment by the scarecrow, Dick was forced by himself to take care of the redhead.

Dick took everyone to bluehaven with him, compared to Gotham bluehaven was heaven and so much more peaceful

......

Mornings start with the kitchen smelling of scrambled eggs and chocolate milk, sometimes with laughter from the boys and sometimes with Dick trying to cheer them up.

At first Damian and Chris don't understand what Colin and Billy say in slang so Dick would translate for them, but now the four of them have their own language and Dick doesn't understand anything they say

The four have already escaped from the apartment when Dick went to do the monthly shopping, Billy disguised himself as Shazam and one of Dick's coats and so they went to batburgers -bluehaven Version without adult supervision, Dick freaked out.

Damian, who still didn't know anything about the United States other than books and research, ends up spoiling his "brothers" by accident, after all, the wayne-al ghul's fortune is huge and Damian loves to give gifts

Chris speaks Kryptonian when scared, Damian speak mixes of Chinese Arabic and English when scared

Billy and Colin Don't understand an ounce of what is said when Damian and Chris do it.

The four at some point started to treat each other like brothers, Dick ended up becoming a father figure to them without even realizing it.

At some point the boys had to go back or start (in Damian's case) going to school and well it was just a big mess! Damian was suspended for having a kitten in his backpack,Colin kicked a guy, Billy argued with a teacher and Chris refused to participate in physical education classes.

Chris was bullied, Damian and Colin went to defend him, Billy went to appease everyone but they got suspended.

The boys ended up super attached to each other, this started to become clear when Colin disappeared into a crowd of people and everyone freaked out.

Billy helps Damian hide the stray kittens and puppies he catches around

Colin may not like tight spaces but he got used to it and liked getting hugs often.

Damian and Chris are the chaos duo even if the poor kryptonian doesn't realize it, On Chris' first birthday away from his parents they ended up setting the party on fire unintentionally

Six months went by like water running down the sink when Damian couldn't reach the faucet, but none of them were prepared to walk away from each other.

One of the boys ended up calling dick dad by accident, Dick cried

Damian did want to see his father, but at the same time he didn't want to.

Chris sure missed his parents, but felt guilty about leaving his new family.

Colin and Billy eventually got used to living with this messed up family and strangely didn't feel good about leaving it behind.

Now some dialogs!

Dick : What is the problem?

Damian:

Billy :

Colin :

Dick : Where's Chris?

Billy : bath.

Dick : no he doesn't

The three: so...

-----------

Billy trying to give good advice: do what your heart tells you to do

Colin : so i go slepp

Damian and Chris : fine

Minutes later

Dick : Why is the toaster on fire?!

-------------

Dick trying to calm the boys down puts a movie from his childhood

Damian : Why doesn't the wolf enter the house?

Chris : Because the house is made of bricks, Dami

Colin : And the wolf can't break the window?

Billy : We are raising a burglar.

------------------

The tiny three : we can have more cookies?

Billy : What did Dick say?

The tiny three : he said No

Billy : so it's

The tiny three : but...he is not boss of you

Billy : okay okay this is a trap and i know that

The tiny three: You are the worst big brother in the world.

Billy : We can take it when he sleeps

I hope you like it ✨:D
