Bruce doing this with Jason when Jason is still on his ‘I’m mad at dad for not avenging me’ kick. He doesn’t know it is Jason, yet, but does it because he promised Tim and Dick he be home for a movie night. 

Jason’s people have been around a lot and while they haven’t seen it in person, they all know the rumors that Robin and Nightwing aren’t the only ones who cry sometimes.

One of the females makes the mistake of bringing up the dead Robin, thinking her boss would be okay with it because he talks about them all the time.

Hood is…at first. Then Bruce starts crying, not even fake crying, actually crying about how he missed him and he wishes to join his baby but he can’t leave his other two babies and he can’t kill because he tried and the asshole just came back (It’s why he made sure the Joker came back when Dick killed him. The clown would be even worse than he is now if he died and came back again. The Joker gets more insane with each death. Worse than Ra’s does.) and went after his youngest and so on.

Jason freaks the fuck out and to his people’s shock yanks off his helmet and hugs Batman.

Dick and Tim come in as Jason does this and end up hugging their brother and dad.

The group with Hood during all of this becomes the most dangerous afterwards. They still answer to Hood but they also work with the Bats and if they see any of the kids by themselves, including Hood, they will join the children and fight on the side of the children.

None of the Rogues mess with Damian when he joins the family because Ra’s sends Damian his own guards along and they quickly join Hood’s gang of protectors and will actually kill in defense of the children (Black Mask was the first and not the last to learn this).

The assassins will also be the ones who engage the Joker; none of the family is allowed near him when he’s out, not even Bruce. They can beat him and get him under control a lot faster since the assassins are used to dealing with Ra’s.

The Joker is taken out for good one day. No one knows how or who did it….until an Owl mask shows up at the Manor and a note for Alfred saying that the debt is repaid.

I went off a bit on this, oh well. 

Not ever crying is POWERFUL. Healthy? No. But when you have a character who never cries who just fucking loses it?? Holy shit

All this to say, Batman's children are manipulative as hell when need be. Some of them definitely can cry on command, but if they do so too often, the effects lessen, so they choose wisely.

Who do they manipulate with these crocodile tears? Their overprotective, very intimidating, very no-nonsense father, of course.

Dick, age 11, accidentally flips into Superman, which is essentially like running into a wall and winds up faceplanting on the floor: Owww

Superman: oh sorry, buddy! But y'know this is why Batman told you not to do those flips in the halls-

Dick, embarrassed and afraid Batman is going to yell at him, immediately starts crying: B! B!

Superman, panicked: no, no, shh, hey, it's okay, I'm sorry, here let me help-

Dick, sobbing: no! You'll hurt me again!

Batman, appears out of nowhere: What. Did. You. Do.

Superman: he ran into me, I didn't-

Batman: is your name not "super" man? Could you not use your "super" hearing or "super" vision or "super" speed to get out of the way?

Superman: he's fine! It wasn't my-

Dick, bravely through his tears: my head hurts

Batman, gently: do u think u have a concussion, chum?

Dick: I d- don't know I just wanna go h-home

Batman: of course, we'll go home now and after dinner we'll get ice cream, just the two of us. How does that sound?

Dick, sniffing: okay

Batman, whispering to Superman: if u ever so much as touch a hair on my son's head again I will pour boiling liquid kryptonite in your ears while you sleep. From now on you are dead to me. I'll see you in hell, Clark Kent.

Superman: bruce that seems a little extreme-

Batman: another word and I'll guarantee after I'm done with you, your funeral will have to be closed casket

Superman:

Batman: okay, chum, let's get you home! *picks up his child*

Dick, peering over Bruce's shoulder at Clark with a small smile, mouthing: sorry, Uncle Clark, love you

Superman muttering to himself: heaven help us if he adopts more children

Chapter Four:

Chapter Summary: More questions and are raised snd some questions are answered. Not all though.

Bruce, who walked up as Ethan was explaining to Jackson and the others, though they were confused, got the children and adults moving to their temporary home.

Inside Alfred raised a brow at his brother. “What is this with Catherine being the same as Jackson is for his boyfriend?”

“She’s my mate,” Deucalion told his brother bluntly, “If I had known she was here I would have come for her years ago.”

“Mate? As in soulmate?” Tim interrupted before anyone else could speak.

“Yes,” Ennis answered, “Most wolves have mates that they can spend their lives with. Only a few have actual soulmates.”

“Except for Aiden now, our pack is one of the luckiest,” Kali added, “We all have found our soulmates. The Hale Pack is the next luckiest because before most died, they had three soulmate pairs.”

“Who?” Jackson asked curiously, “Talia and her husband and Derek and Paige are the only ones I can think of.”

“Peter and Noah, Derek, Paige, and Stiles, and last was Oliver and Dinah.” Aiden piped up.

“Not Talia and her husband?” Ethan blinked.

“Why are you speaking of Uncle Ollie and Aunt Dinah in past tense?” Duke intervened, “They’re in Star City last I knew. They might be on the way here though.”

“Oliver is alive?” Deucalion looked at Alfred in shock.

“More got out then what Laura and Derek thought did. Or weren’t there and the bones found were from hunters,” Alfred told his brother, “Peter and Derek can also stop mourning Paige and Laura. Or, as they go by now, Greta and Donna.”

“Wait,” Thomas spoke up, “What exactly is going on Alfred? Why is Oliver and Dinah involved? Why does your brother say Catherine is his soulmate? And what exactly do you all mean when you said wolves?!?”

Thomas’ voice rose at the last word and then went silent; along with the tent.

It was Doug who spoke up after a few silent moments. “I think we should go somewhere else for these conversations. It’s a bit to exposed here.”

“Good thing we just got here. Come,” Wonder Woman stepped into the tent, surprising no one, “We’ll go to Mount Justice. The conversations can happen there safely.”

No one argued with her; just followed the Amazon warrior to the plane.

They left behind questions from their listeners. Questions that would never be answered because the family wouldn’t be back.

Shock

Summary: A series of shocks changes everything.

Chapter One:

Chapter Summary: Agent A, who had stepped forward to join Batman and Oracle, dropped his tray of drinks.

Oracle rolled into the Batcave and glared at Batman who just blinked at her. “You’re children went off line and when they came back on, refused to tell me what was going on, and then turned off communication!”

Before Batman could even say anything to Oracle, they heard engines coming up to the main cave, where the vehicles were.

Turning to face the area, Batman watched as a couple of vans pulled in first followed by Red Robin’s car, Robin’s bike, and Red Hood’s motorcycle.

Agent A, who had stepped forward to join Batman and Oracle, dropped his tray of drinks.

No one cared though because all three were staring at the people stepping outside the vans, car, bike, and motorcycle.

“What the hell?” Oracle caught the large crowd’s attention.

“May I inquire as to who you are?” Thomas Wayne asked the woman with a raised brow.

“That’s Oracle Gramps. She probably came to yell at B and then us for turning off the comms,” Hood drawled as he hovered over a woman, “Though B did nothing wrong.”

“Of course I have. You know the rules and then you break them,” Oracle blustered, “Batman lets you all get away with to much. Nightwing, let’s go.”

“No can do,” Nightwing grinned brightly, “I’m staying here for the night. Tata and Mama are staying so I am also.”

Oracle went to snap at Nightwing but a woman standing beside Red Robin spoke up, sharply. “Go home Miss Gordon. Our children have done nothing wrong by turning off the comms so they could surprise their father and grandfather.”

“Please leave the premises before I have my grandchildren make you leave.” Martha Wayne ordered.

Oracle didn’t argue even though they all could tell she wanted to. When Martha spoke it was the law.

Once Oracle was gone, Batman shed his cowl and became Bruce as he hugged his parents and was introduced to his children’s parents and then their other other siblings.

Alfred greeted them all before deciding that the group would sleep in a room in the Batcave since none of the children wanted to let their parents and siblings out of sight.

As the children and Bruce disappeared upstairs to gather clothes for everyone along with blankets and pillows, Alfred had Jack, John, Thomas, and Doug put the blankets and pillows already in the cave in the room they woukd be using and make a nest.

Catherine fed Matt and then Helena as Martha and Janet took care of the mess from the tray Alfred had dropped and Mary and Elaine directed the males until they were satisfied with the base of the nest.

Jason was the first back, Terry getting a ride from him as both held clothes that they handed to the adults who changed.

Dick and Athanasia followed, Athanasia also getting a ride, with a basket full of blankets and Haley and Alfred the cat on top of them.

Damian, Colin, Duke, Cass and Tim followed with Ace and Jerry behind them; baskets of pillows and more blankets in their hands.

Batcow was soon in the room, mooing softly to herself as she stood in a corner, ignoring everyone.

Goliath was the last and planted himself in the doorway.

The family slept and didn’t wake as Gotham was destroyed.

[batfsm]

What does Lian canonically call Oliver and Dinah?

Grandma and Grandpa?

Or does DC never outright say what she calls them?

[batfsm]

If Laura Hale is a DC character who would she be?

I got the idea of having Paige be Greta but now I need who Laura would be. I kind of want her to be an Amazon but I don’t know if she be a good one for Donna or Diana herself.

I’m leaning more towards Donna because of the wonder twins but I still don’t know for sure that would work.

Paige is Greta because Greta is around Tim and the others age but also a bit older (I like to think she is) so I think that would work. Then again it might not.

[batfsm]

[batfsm]

I still think it’s hilarious that the reason nobody ever figures out Superman’s secret identity or where he lives or what he does when he’s not saving the planet, is because he already told them all the Kryptonian stuff that can’t be tied to any of his human friends or family. I guarantee you the in-universe wikipedia article on Superman lists his name as Kal-El and the “personal life” section says that he lives full-time at his private fortress of solitude at the north pole. Nobody in the world looks at Clark Kent and thinks “oh my god, maybe he’s superman!” for the same reason nobody ever starts to suspect that their coworker who looks KINDA like Barack Obama is actually secretly Barack Obama – They know who Barack Obama is and know what he does and they know their coworker Greg is Greg and not Barack Obama. They have no reason to assume Barack Obama secretly moonlights as Greg The IT Guy at their workplace even though they’ve never seen Greg and Obama in the same place. At best, “Greg is secretly Obama” would be a running joke at the office, and the same is true at the Daily Planet. “Kal-El of Krypton, who lives in a CRYSTAL PALACE at the NORTH POLE and whose dayjob is SUPERMAN, sometimes puts on a suit and pretends to be a clumsy reporter and lives in a one-bedroom walkup in Metropolis” is a ridiculous concept to anyone who doesn’t already know it’s true

[batfsm]

Chapter Three:

Chapter Summary: The Wayne family find out some things and have questions on others.

Pulling away from his boyfriend, Jackson flung himself at a woman who caught him easily before (lightly) pushing him back. “While I am glad to see you also Jackson, the rest of the family is waiting to greet you.”

Jackson kissed his aunt’s cheek and went to do as told.

Deucalion stepped forward as Jackson disappeared and kissed the woman’s hand. “Hello. My name is Deucalion, I’m Alfred’s brother.”

“Janet Drake, Timothy is my son and Jackson is one of my nephews. Bruce Wayne is your nephew?” The woman raised a brow.

“He is,” Deucalion smiled, “Is he around? I would like to say hello.”

Janet nodded and led Deucalion towards a crowd. The same crowd Jackson had disappeared into, the pack, following Janet and Deucalion, noticed.

Ennis was the first to notice Deucalion coming to a stop. Kali followed and that got the twins attention.

Following their alpha’s look, Ennis swore; catching the large group’s attention.

The two groups stared at each other before a woman broke free of the larger one and ran.

Ennis caught the woman as a younger male reached out for her; missing her by a couple inches. “Ma!”

“I’m okay Jason,” the woman spoke over her shoulder as she hugged Ennis, “Just greeting your uncle.”

“Uncle?!?” A different male yelped, “We have more?”

The woman turned and rolled her eyes at the two males and the others around them. “No, Jason does,” She snarked, “For Ra’s sake, why is this shocking? Y’all call Bruce’s friends uncle and aunt but another one surprises ya?”

“We thought we knew all our uncle and aunts,” A younger male than the other two answered, “So to find out that we don’t is surprising.”

The woman sighed but didn’t get to answer because Deucalion spoke up. “I don’t think I have had the pleasure of meeting you lovely. I am Deucalion, Bruce is my nephew.”

The woman looked at Deucalion but didn’t answer as the oldest male stepped forward. “Hello. I’m Dick, this is Duke and Jason. The woman clinging to your friend is Catherine, Jason’s mom.”

Duke and Jason nodded in greeting as Catherine stepped back from Ennis. Jason grabbed his mother as soon as he could and pulled her behind him as Jackson walked up with another male.

“Jason? Why are we hiding Aunt Catherine?” The male questioned, even as he joined the others in front of Catherine.

“Deucalion was flirting with Aunt Catherine.” Duke informed the newest male.

Jackson groaned as others joined them. “Really Deuc? You have to flirt with my aunt? Can’t ya flirt with someone else?”

“He can’t Jacks,” Ethan told his mate, “She’s like you for me and Ennis for Kali.”

“Fuck!”

Chapter Two:

Chapter Summary: Jackson makes a phone call.

Jackson clung to Ethan’s hand as he tried calling once more.

Aiden paced in front of the couple, growling low in his throat at Ennis who was trying to calm the young get twin down.

Kali sighed and grabbed Aiden, making him sit beside Ethan and Jackson as Jackson’s call finally went through.

“What do you want Jackson?”

The voice made Jackson smile even as he answered the question. “Where the hell are you? Did you know that no one could get through to you until now?”

“What the hell are you…Ow! That hurt mother!”

“No swearing Timothy. That goes for you also Jackson.” A female voice came over the phone and Jackson dropped it; only to have Ethan save it from the ground.

“Aunt Janet? You’re alive?!?” Jackson shouted.

“I am. As are your uncles and other aunts. Now, you are on speaker. What is this about not being able to get through to Timothy?”

“Gotham’s gone and no one could get through to anyone at first. The Justice League is helping look for survivors but..” Jackson trailed off.

“But what?” A male voice ordered Jackson to finish.

Jackson squeezed Ethan’s hand hard as he finished. “Bristol is gone. No Manor is left standing and no one saw any of the Wayne’s leave and then Gotham was hit. So where are you guys?”

“Safe,” Tim came back on the phone, “i have to let B use the phone since his isn’t here but I’ll call you later.”

“Swear it.” Jackson ignored the tears running down his face as he let out the order.

“I swear it Jacks. I'll talk to you later.” Tim hung up with that promise.

“Well,” Deucalion spoke, making his pack look at where he was leaning against the living room door, “Looks like we’re headed to Gotham. Or as close to it as we can get.”

“Thank you alpha.” Jackson breathed out as he bowed his head.

Deucalion waved the thanks away. “I need to check on my nephew who is, or was I should say, living there anyways.”

“Who is your nephew?” Ennis questioned; never hearing of Deucalion having family that was still alive, unlike the others.

Deucalion smirked as he turned to walk away. “Bruce Wayne. Alfred Pennyworth is one of his parents.”

“Oh shit.” Jackson swore; knowing that information changed everything.

Dick Grayson: "Relax, I've got sixty hours in the simulator!" SMASH CUT TO: DICK HAVING PLAYED 60 HOURS OF A RACING GAME IN THE CIRCUS I cannot express how hard I lost my shit at this, because they are currently in the middle of trying to outrun an actual firestorm being rained down on them by Firefly, Dick just broke his promise to save himself if things went down, he dragged his 280lb mentor into the Batmobile and probably barely reaches the pedals because he's still like eleven years old and Batman is FULL FORCE YELLING AT HIM for disobeying direct orders and this CHAOS GREMLIN CHILD HAS THE ABSOLUTE NERVES OF STEEL TO SAY RIGHT TO BATMAN'S FACE "Relax, I've got sixty hours in the simulator!" when he knows Batman knows Batman doesn't have a simulator and HE MEANT THAT HE'D PLAYED A BUNCH OF RACING GAMES. Let's be real, Bruce didn't put that kid on a dangerous path, Bruce put a fucking leash on that kid so he was maybe 5% less dangerous and likely to get himself killed and HE WORKED A MIRACLE TO GET THIS FAR.

I think they win. With all of Bruce’s children working together? I think they would.

I got this idea from this story and wanted to see what you all think.

[batfsm]

First chapter is up! It is named Shock.

I’ll add the rest on their days.

I want to write a story where the Wayne’s, Grayson’s, Catherine, The Drake’s (mostly Janet), and Thomas’ come back. Only to have Gotham be flattened and they be the only ones who make it out alive from Bristol because the kids don’t want to sleep without their parents and the parents are all in a relationship and don’t want to sleep without each other so they all fall asleep in the Batcave with the animals (who Damian and Dick being downstairs even if Alfred doesn’t like it) and that’s the only thing that saves them.

The Justice League take them to Mount Justice because the Watchtower can’t hold them all (it can but JL thinks the parenta don’t know) and Bart, whose living there since Max is somewhere and Iris thinks Linda is letting him live with them while Linda is lying to Barry, Iris, and Wally, becomes part of the family.

Colin, Terry, Matt, Helena, and Athanasia are there by the way. Harper and Cullen were with Kate and not in Gotham when it got taken off the map so they join the family later on.

The adults argue on where to live at first and then decide to go back and remake Gotham. Or maybe they live somewhere else, I don’t know yet.

All I know is that Gotham is gone and the children have a lot of moms and dads in the end. Along with three grandparents, or four of you count Ra’s.

⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

I am writing part of it, at least where the kids show up with their parents and grandparents, which hopefully will be done for Wednesday’s writing. The rest? I might not write.
