Hii, tbh I do not know if you have been asked about this before me, but what are you thinking about the relationship between Damian and Dick? In your opinion, is this more of a father-son relationship? Or very close brothers ? Or just "I have to put up with him." What do you think??

Plus I adore your posts, they are really cool, I'm in love with ur hc💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

Hiiii :D

Honestly, I don't think I ever thought about it, at least not in a more "analytical" way.

I think it genuinely depends on what point in their relationship you're looking at.

Like Nightwing and Robin, they are brothers. I can see it like a mentor-apprentice relationship and a bit of a father-son relationship, but they seem more like brothers to me.

I'm not going to lie, this may be a little influenced by my own relationship with my brother, we have practically the same age difference as Dick and Damian. I am the older one, and I am adopted and he is a biological son.

And I always notice similarities between our dynamics (leaving aside the whole being heroes thing, lmaoooo), but the way Dick knows how to advise his younger brother (and his father to be able to understand his youngest son), more from experience... Well, it's something common among siblings, even more so if there is a significant age difference between the two.

Now, like Batman and Robin, they're definitely going more towards a father-son dynamic.

Even when they want to project Bruce and Dick as brothers, for me within the Batman and Robin dynamic there is always more of a father-son relationship. Same thing goes for Dick and Damian.

As Batman, Dick takes on a more mentor-oriented role for Damian, also, perhaps unconsciously, he seemed to mimic certain behaviors Bruce had towards him when they were the original dynamic duo. Not hero dynamics, but when they were out of the mask.

Also, we know that Dick wanted to adopt Damian, but he was afraid he wouldn't be a good father to him.

Now, like Dick and Damian, I personally do see them as brothers again, differently than they are when they're in costume tho.

There are many older siblings who raise their younger siblings, this is unfortunately all too common. In some ways, they resemble parents more than siblings, but still, they maintain a line that distinguishes these roles from each other.

I feel like this is the relationship between Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne.

Dick is definitely his older brother, but he treats Damian like his own son.

Damian is definitely his younger brother, but he sees Dick as a father figure.

There is a father-son relationship in the form of care and protection, but a trust that only exists between siblings to tell them secrets that the parents cannot know.

Basically, they bring out the best in every type of relationship.

I don't know if this makes much sense, as I said, I've never really looked into the dynamics of it exactly, but I think it's something like this as far as I can see.

And thank u so so much 💖💖💖 It makes me very happy to know that you like them!!!

At least this way my rambling about my current hyperfixation seems to make sense HAHA ✨

The implementation of Tim’s cowl

[mossing-around]

You know those posts about one of Bruce’s kids getting kidnapped and him having no idea which kid they have based on the vague descriptions he’s given? Well now I can’t only imagine Bruce getting the dreaded call and immediately pulling out a guess who board filled entirely with his kids. Like

kidnapper: we have one of your children

Bruce: I have so many of those you need to be more specific

kidnapper: the loud and annoying one

Bruce, flipping down Cass and Duke: that does not help as much as you think it does

kidnapper: well he has black hair?

Bruce, flips down Steph: keep going

kidnapper: uhhhh? He’s short?

Bruce, flips down Dick and Jason leaving Tim and Damian: more specific

kidnapper: he’s been condescending and judgmental since we got him

Bruce: yeah they both tend to do that

kidnapper: he keeps throwing around words I don’t understand

Bruce, realizing that Damian and Tim are significantly more similar than he thought: uhh more specific?

kidnapper: more?? look just wore us the mon— WHERE’D HE HIDE A KATANA???

Bruce: ah you have Damian

*taps microphone* is this thing on? Okay…

🎤 THIS IS A REMINDER THAT ALL OF THE ROBINS ARE SMART, GENIUSES IN FACT. THEY ARE IN A FAMILY OF DETECTIVES. THATS LIKE THEIR WHOLE THING. ALL OF THE ROBINS (AND THE REST OF THE BATFAM TOO) ARE CLEVER, STRATEGIC, AND CAPABLE, NOT JUST TIM. (No hate to my boy Tim, though. I love Tim.) YES, EVEN THAT ONE. Thank you. 🎤

Bruce truly hates magic with every pump and beat of his heart.

What kinda curse is Slang, anyway?

“This is the best day of my life.”

“Bro really thought he ate with that.” Bruce physically feels a full body shiver, charged with nausea and cringe. “This is level 10 cringe. Can’t have shit in Gotham.”

Dick is his earth bound angel, but he laughs like a demon at him, holding onto Jason for support, pledging his eternal loyalty to Zatana and her pettiness.

—

“Hey, old bat, hook me up with an adrenaline shot.”

What he wants to say is Jay, do not try and fight with 6 bullets in your stomach.

What comes out instead, through Bruce’s grit teeth and intense, fierce glaring, “Not you trying to go back to your corpse era. See how I only took 2 shots? Very demure. Very mindful.”

Jason passes out from blood loss, but mostly laughter.

—

“Chat, is this real?”

Stephanie barely bites back a full belly cackle. “I think he just asked us if we copied.”

“I wish I was Jason, 15.”

—

“This is not a slay environment. Killing is flop behavior.” He keeps his eyes shut and buries his face in his hands. Trying to convince Damian not to stab someone doesn’t seem to work.

Damian gives him a pat like he’s a pitiful cat. “I’ll only stab the non lethal areas.”

“God, I wish that were me.”

Interviewer, catching Damian in costume: Robin! Can you explain the process of picking up Robin or passing on the mantle?

Damian, mildly annoyed at Bruce at the moment: It's quite simple. Batmam steals young children from their bed, usually nine or ten or so. Then he takes you to his lair and give you a deal.

Damian: If you can beat him in a game of your choosing, he will train you to be Robin. If you lose, you are eaten. I beat him in a classic fencing game. He's quite good with swords, but he wasn't very good with the sport itself.

Tim, standing next to him: Yeah, I beat him at a memory card game. I like totally cheated, but I'm too old for him to eat now, so ot doesn't matter.

Damian, nodding: Yes. The worst part of the job is disposing of failed Robins bones. He usually sucks them clean and leaves them all over the floor.

Tim: Yeah, its messy. But after you hit, like 15 he stops trying to eat you, so that's cool.

Damian: I have not yet reached 15. I'm still in danger. If you have more questions, ask Nightwing, as he was the first to avoid being eaten.

-

Same interviewer, at a different date: Mr. Nightwing. Is it true Batman tries to eat potential Robins?

Dick, who has no idea what she's taking about: Yeah, it's really scary. His jaw unhinges like a snake.
