Batfam Cooking Boot Camp
Thinking about the Batfam and the concept of geniuses who are capable of hacking and fighting and swinging and general vigilante stuff, many of whom canonically or often in fandom "Can't Cook"
And it makes sense: many of them never had to and many of them never had a chance to learn. And people who are learning to cook make a lot of mess and a lot of mistakes and can waste food and cause danger and damage and there's no way Alfred wants that in His Kitchen unless someone really wants to learn and is going to put the time and effort into it.
But imagine for a moment. Alfred overhearing friends and partners of his charges joking about how they always have to get takeout or come to the manor when it's the bats' turn to cook.
Specifically I'm thinking about Kori asking Dick to take Mar'i to the Manor or invite Jason over with some frequency when she's going to be off world so that she (Mar'i) can have some home cooked food that's not pb&js, cereal, or burnt Mac and cheese.
And Alfred isn't oblivious to conversations happening; he knows that outside of the Manor where food is His Job and only Approved Cooks are allowed in the kitchen, there's conversations about division of chores/home labor and he's heard the term "weaponized incompetence" thrown around and he's like.
Maybe telling certain people they're terrible at cooking and Not Allowed to cook has left some of his charges lacking in essential life skills when they leave the nest. And like. He Knows about Dick's cereal obsession and he had thought of it as an issue of nutrition to be dealt with by Alfred when Dick came to the manor. But. It's an issue beyond that.
And it's not that he (or I) think any of the bats are weaponizing incompetence, or in any way deliberately shirking their responsibilities to their friends, roommates, teammates, partners, but there's a point at which telling people they should stay out of kitchens instead of figuring out How and Why they are burning water when they make an honest attempt is doing them a disservice.
But also. Learning to cook can be messy and destructive and dangerous and he Does Not want that in His Kitchen.
So he talks to Jason, who can cook well and Tim who can cook to survive and be a somewhat healthy vigilante, who are also people with connections and resources. And they put together a plan.
In a warehouse (maybe in Crime Alley or the Narrows where the leftovers and better food made can be given away) that has been refitted to have multiple cooking stations and whatever tools and machines and utensils they can imagine, Alfred and Jason put together a Cooking Boot Camp, using Tim as a guinea pig.
And because Tim genuinely would love to make a nice meal for his boyfriend, (Kon and/or Bernard, readers choice), and he's smart and would love to have this skill but never learned it -- because he was mainly teaching himself to cook well enough to survive and then Be Robin rather than cooking for enjoyment or to get better or to cook for other people, all this -- Tim learns really fast!
And he makes some mistakes and needs some accommodations to help him not forget stuff on the stove when he has a thought about a case. And he learns that the fact that he's only given himself food poisoning a few times is a miracle. But he also learns about flavor pairing and how to make things that taste good. He learns the vocab and individual skills he needs to better follow recipes and cooking videos. And he is Alfred's Kitchen Approved in just under 2 months.
He's making good food that people want to eat and he's enjoying it and proud of it and can make meals for his boyfriend(s).
So Alfred, Jason, and Tim get ready to put the rest of the Bats through the Bat Cooking Boot Camp. They don't need to be Good or even Alfred's Kitchen Approved. But they need to be able to cook for themselves and anyone they might live with/have over for dinner passably well.
Boot Camp attendance is mandatory under threat of being signed up for Worst Cooks in America: Celebrity Edition, and honestly Jason and Alfred are less intimidating than Ann Burrell and all of America.
I will probably have thoughts about every bat and how this goes for them including strengths weaknesses accommodations and how long they're willing to stay/how far in their training they'll go but it's well after 3am and I need to go to sleep. So for now I'm going to post without proofreading. Feel free to add your own thoughts

So feel free to tell me if this is stupid, but how funny would it be if Mar’i had like an open secret identity.
Like it would be pretty hard to hide the fact Bruce Wayne’s granddaughter, a known half alien, is thrown through buildings and gets up with barely a scratch.
The Bats use this to their advantage and have her redirect any attempts to figure out their identities, which works great!!….when she’s little and cute as a button.
As she grows up, she still misdirects the media, but will take the opportunity to mess with her family 😂
“‘Is Bruce Wayne Batman?’ My grandfather barely has time to drink coffee, let alone get into vigilantism. Besides, between you and me, I don’t think his old bones could take it.”
“My dad? Nightwing? The closest thing to a fight he’s seen in years is who gets the last brownie with my uncles. And Auntie Cassie always wins.”
“Please, our darling Alfred Pennyworth, who was like a great-grandfather to me, was more likely to be Batman.”
“Uncle Tim? A Vigilante? I’ve watched the man put Redbull in espresso. Im pretty sure that’s because he had my little cousin at home, not because of patrol.”
“Of course, my Uncle Damian isn’t Robin! Just because they both look like they have sticks up their asses, doesn’t mean they’re the same person.”
She is known to accept bribes 😂

1. Would dick teach the art of trapeze to his kids?
2. Was Kory at all worried that one of her kids might grow up secretly resenting the other , like komandr hated Kory?
He would no doubt. They might be able to well actually fly so they technically wouldn't need it but Dick still wants to show them because they deserve to have this and it's a way to show the kids the memory of Grandma Mary and Grandpa John. The kids have no issues learning. Like the true Graysons they are they take to the trapeze like fish to water.
2. Kory was indeed worried about it once they learn Kory is pregnant again. She and Dick talk about all their worries. They both relaxed with the game plan of no matter what happens they will show both of their children equal love. They refuse to take the crown or anything else into account. The only thing that matters is that the children know they're loved so so much. If either of them start to feel a bit left out for whatever reason, Dick and Kory immediately plan to show whoever feels left out that they're still loved and cared for. Thankfully Jake and Mar'i love each other so much. Both of them are very protective of one another and even the thought of hating each other frightens them.
Thanks for the Ask!

Mar'i and Jake Grayson headcanons:
Mar'i loves watching Barbie and Bratz movies all the time
Jake is allergic to bees
Mar'i sometimes makes hot chocolate for herself at night if she can't sleep and she'll also make some for others too if they're also awake with her
They both are always stealing eachothers things without asking for permission first, like movies, pens and coloring pencils, video games, hats, socks, eachothers toys when they were younger, and comic books
One of the many things that Mar'i is well known for besides other things is being a really big gamer. She even knows how to create mods, do model swaps and remembers a lot of useful cheat codes by heart
Since he usually tastes certain things very differently due to his Tamaranean taste buds, Jake one time ate a whole stick of butter in front of his Uncle Damian and his friends Jon, Kathy, Maya, and Colin as a prank, literally horrifying everyone there with every bite he took, not even looking one bit fazed by it as if he was just actually eating a chocolate bar instead, while Chris, who was in on it, just recorded the whole thing on his phone to have as a hilarious memory. This experience traumatized them all for very a long time

What are your favorite Mar’i and Auntie Raven head canons?
I think I really like the idea that Raven reads to Mar'i and is the first call go-to babysitter.
Like, she's so patient with Mar'i and her voice is so calming when she reads and Mar'i just drops right off in her lap.

Pov: Wayne manor at 3a.m.
Anyway context is Mar'i went into the kitchen for some water, Jason had snuck into the house because of late night munchies and he was close by, and Damian had heard something in the kitchen so he brought his sword.
In short they all have Tapetum lucidum, Jason and Damian because of Lazarus pit stuff and Mar'i has it because of Tameranian(?) stuff.

Headcanon: To this day, Mar’i does not know what her first word was, because she gets two different answers; her father claims it was “dada”, and her mother claims it was a Tamaranian word that could just as well have been baby gibberish.
Lol.

LMAO ACCURATE
Batfam Games
The Batfam likes to play tag in the Batcave as a way to practice pursuit and escape. However, it quickly became apparent that, under the conventional rules, Dick couldn’t lose–he was too good of an acrobat for anyone else to catch him. So, the rest of the Batfamily decided that, to be more fair, they would allow the use of gadgets in the game.
They discovered that Tim had somehow booby-trapped the entire Batcave, without any of them finding out about it, when he managed to bring down an entire wall on Damien during the next game. He then proceeded to hit Jason with the Batmobile, and Tim was banned from all future games of Bat Tag.
This did not help, because Cass and Damien both decided that swords counted as “gadgets.” At which point Jason retaliated with a grenade launcher. Steph decided to count the elevator as a gadget and straight-up left the field of play to go have some ice cream instead. Mar'i simply elected to start flying, and smacked down anyone who tried to come after her with a low-powered Starbolt. The chaos went on for hours, until an exasperated Bruce entered the game with the Hellbat armor and personally took down every single player.
The Batkids are no longer allowed to play tag in the cave.

To the anon who asked me about Zatavia...
Tumblr ate my response when I tried to save it as a draft. So I'm just going to write it out as a post. Forgive me!
Question: With the 25th anniversary of The Kingdom coming up, do you have any Zatavia headcanons?
The answer: I sure do!
There's not a ton about them in Kingdom Come or The Kingdom, but the little bits we get help fill in the gaps, and it's always fun to just run with it. So, my Zatavia headcanons:
They were only acquaintances until after the Battle at the Gulag. The Kingdom Come novelization mentions Avia being stood up for a date right around the time she joins Superman's team, so she's single at that point. Sometime in the 2-3 years after Kingdom Come, they meet and start dating.
Where did they meet? On a team! Offspring's plan in his issue of The Kingdom is to get his old team (consisting of Avia, Zatara, Star-Spangled Kid, and Stripesy) back together. They must have started the team up after the Gulag and broken up at some point. (It's implied they weren't a great team.)
Zatara is flamboyant and full of himself. He likes to deliberately annoy people and he's mentioned to be infuriating by several characters. (Oddly enough, he has positive interactions with Batman and tries to talk to Luthor at one point, so this could just be toward people his age. I like to think that most of it is bravado that doesn't hold up to people who are actually competent.) Avia on the other hand is pretty well-adjusted. She's grounded and noble (with a bit of her mom's temper thrown in for fun), and seems to have a lot of respect, both from heroes her age and heroes of the older generation. Somehow, the pairing works.
Avia also thought that Zat was a jerk when she first met him. He showed her his sweet side later on. He may be an ass, but he's her ass.
Zat constantly begged Avia to go to one of his shows. She finally did, and he dedicated an escape act to her. (She saw through it. Her dad is the world's greatest escape artist, after all. Still, A for effort.) They went out for drinks and dinner after and that was their first date.
Zatara gets much, much more comfortable poking fun at people when he has a beautiful, buff, gigantic girlfriend who will defend him. He's honestly a bit of a coward. Misdirecting that energy toward Avia would be a very unwise move on his part.
She can pick him up and do whatever she wants with him. And she does. A lot.
Avia can understand everything he says backwards. A lot of the time, she's the only one who can understand what he's saying.
They like to tinker with Apokoliptian tech and magic combos. Scott actually loves to talk shop with Zat, too. Barda will walk in and find all three of them brainstorming sometimes.
Mar'i was utterly flabbergasted when Avia told her she was dating Zat. Eventually, she warms up to him. She helps cover for him when he gets into trouble with Avia. They can both relate to making decisions that Avia doesn't approve of.
The first few double dates with Mar'i and Ibn are some of the most awkward hours of any of their lives. The problems stem from the men, mostly. Ibn is stuck up and closed off to everyone but Mar'i, and Zatara is annoying to everyone but Avia. Time wears them down, and eventually they come to be comfortable with each other. (At least as comfortable as a half-Tamaranean princess, an Apokoliptian warrior goddess, a chaotic-neutral son of the bat, and a showboating sorcerer/stage magician can ever hope to be.)

thoughts on girldad dick grayson? god it holds such a special place in my heart i could talk about it for agess! also i think dick wanting to start a family eventually but his life always being too "unstable" is really interesting. dc had SO MANY opportunities to give this man a daughter but its only canon in elseworlds! i dont wanna take away from roys whole shtick but dick having daughters would be such a fun direction to go in if its written while. like he would definitely mess up and have a lot of problems but he would love with his whole heart. a fic ive always wanted to read is a different ending with sophia or even dick getting to keep the grayson desert baby and raising it like ahhh chewing on my nails.
also any headcanons on dick + rose + sophia or dick and olivia desmond or the grayson desert baby? BASICALLY ANY HCS OF DICK WITH A DAUGHTER(S) AAA.
ur gonna wanna kill me for this but in most of my imaginings before n52, a biological daughter is not in the cards for dick. one of my fav headcanons for dick is long-term consequences of being at ground zero during chemo (briefly talk about this here). so, a possible consequence for that is sterility. i need him to have crazy feelings about being the last flying grayson.
but to answer your question properly, i think dick adopting a girl could be soooo interesting if done by someone other than taylor (olivia desmond who). just look at how hard his dynamic goes with sophia tevis.
if we veer into headcanon territory for this:
one of my fav ideas would be dick keeping in touch with sophia after blüdhaven got nuked (briefly talk about this here). possibly during the one year later arc... maybe he takes sophia to new york with him (instead of his no stakes arc of being on yachts with tim & bruce lol). he doesn't send her to boarding school immediately and instead, they spend time trying to recover from the shit-show their lives have been recently.
oooh, maybe a rlly fun arc where sophia gets past her hero worship/crush and properly considers dick's role in what happened to her family... which wars with how much she knows he cares about her (how he visited her at the halfway house, how he saved her from chemo, how he made sure she healed from the radiation). shared grief over how their fathers loved them but often failed them.
you can have some great rose stuff here too. instead of joining the teen titans, she follows dick to new york and ends up becoming a regular presence in his shitty little apartment where she bullies dick about how he lives. she gets to know sophia and comes to care for her. maybe a kidnapping plot where she's the one who saves sophia from some mobsters who didn't get the tevis family memo.
a lot of bullying from the og titans (esp donna and roy who are also in new york) about dick essentially parenting two teenage girls. at dick's insistence, rose hesitantly reaches out to people she sort of let down during her evil era but only after she pulls an uno reverse on dick saying she'll only do it if he does it. she mocks him a lot by calling him 'renegade'. it never fails to make sophia laugh who calls him 'crutches' occasionally too.
sophia eventually joins a public high school in new york. dick and rose make rlly embarrassing banners for her graduation only for sophia to mock them saying wow look at how much you care... aren't you embarrassed?
also, i love the desert baby arc soooo much but i think the weight of dick saving this little girl + all the costs he bore to make that happen... is much more impactful if he never meets her again. maybe he does occasionally check up on how she's doing (is she loved? is she safe?) but only from a distance. the people who adopt her often get random tidbits of information about raising a meta-human and the family collectively refers to dick as their guardian angel.
i would be remiss if i didn't mention mar'i grayson bc she had me hooked with just that cameo in titans '99.
ur right anon... dick should be a girldad.

Some headcannons about lian's childhood please if you have time
Of course!! Sorry about the radio silence lately, lol been a crazy few months
When she’s younger, she attends public school. Then about middle/high school, she transfers to a private school with a kick ass music program (Ollie pays the tuition). Her only issue with it is the uniforms.
Since Jade’s specializes in poisons, and she used them throughout her pregnancy, Lian has a natural immunity to some poisons. Nothing like cyanide or arsenic, but enough to freak people out 😂
She’s the oldest of the Menaces, as she, Mar’i, and the twins are lovingly referred to as. She is very protective of them, especially Mar’i when she first starts coming around.
Every time Jade comes home, she and Lian spend all day together. Lian tells her everything that’s been going on and Jade just…she listens to her daughter.
Lian will fake being asleep so Dad, Mom, Uncle Jason, or Aunt Donna have to carry her to bed. (They always know she’s faking but one day won’t ask anymore)
She couldn’t say “Aunt Donna” as a toddler, so she called her “Nonna”
Has never been a morning person. Roy used to joke that getting her up was more dangerous than hostage negotiations.
Always steals her dads baseball caps…and tells him he’s lame for wearing them 😂
When she found out Jai was being beaten up by some older boys (they’re about 8-9, older boys 12), she waited for them with him. Helped fight them off, called two of them pussies and told another he was a dickface. The second the older boys’ parents showed up, she started crying and going on about how they were hurting her friend and she was just scared for Jai and wanted to help him. It was an Oscar worthy performance and it worked

This is so cute! It's part of my headcanons now!🥹🥹🥹🥹
Silly ask for you
If Tamaranians are descendents from cat, Do Kory,Jake, and Mar'i like to sit in empty boxes?
Imagine Dick comes home with a new fridge installs it and is about to throw away the box when his kids are sitting in the box claiming "We fits we sits."
Oh My Yes I can definitely see that happening. It gets better when the kids make some doddles both inside and out of that box, as like cats marking their territory.
It’s like a comfy box for them if they feel especially bored, stressed out from basketball practice at school for Jake or when trying to come to terms with her feelings about that one kid from Algebra I Class whenever Mar’i looks at him

My Mar'i Grayson headcanons
Her tamaranean name is Mariandr’
She LOVES thrifting
One time when she was 12 she tried to ride Lian’s electric scooter. She fell into a ditch and ever since that day has sworn off to drive anything. Cars. Motorcycles. Nothing
Cyborg built her steel butterfly clips and hair ties made with flexible steel because she ends up burning regular ones
One of her favorite foods is nutella on pizza
Mar’i and her mother don’t bother wearing nail polish. It ends up burning off when they use star bolts
For my characterization of her, she reminds me of Sam Larusso from Cobra Kai
Cyborg calls her “little wing”
Cyborg and Jason both call her “princess”
Her fashion sense reflects Dionne from clueless
She loves weight lifting with her mom and doing acrobatics with her dad
She loves pressing flowers
Mar’i’s favorite flower is forget- me-nots
You know that scene where Might Guy tells Rock Lee to take off his weights? Jason used weights when training with Mar’i
She is a huge Nickelback fan
Tim was the one that taught her how to use a bo staff
she think her parents have a ..... questionable sense of style
Whenever she buys dirty shoes from the thrift so always asks Lian Harper to clean them up for her (Cleaning shoes is therapeutic for Lian)
Lian likes to paint shoes and Mar’i is always her model
Dick emphasized the defense aspect of martial arts when teaching her (cough like Daniel Larusso taught Sam Larusso)
Okay can we talk about how she would be so badass??
Like she's the daughter of a tamaranean princess and one of the most proficient fighters in the dc universe??
The comics only ever showed her using her powers but this girl would know how to throw hands and do it WELL
She could have been trained by Dick, Jason, and Tim
In conclusion I have many many thoughts

What are some common bedtime stories Dick would tell to Mar’i and Jake as they were growing up?
I imagine besides his Robin adventures. He'd also tell them stories from his time at the circus. Strange Places he went to with them or stories of when something went different with the circus. Their favorite story is one of Zitka smacking a clown with her trunk after a bad joke. It became a running joke among Haly's that even Zitka would know and punish you for a bad joke.
He'd also tell them a story his mother would tell him. A story of a brother and sister rabbit who outsmarted a fox trying to trick them and eat them for dinner.
Thanks for the ask Friend!
