Leaving the Suit Behind? You Are Invited to Fill Out the Robin Exit Interview

OPEN

It’s a sunny day in Gotham, one of three they’ve had all year, and Bruce has been bullied by his doctor to go outside and get some sun. He’s slathering himself in sunscreen and is just about to finish up his face when he gets a text.:

Clark: JL meeting at 3PM Tuesday. Luthor is active again :(

Bruce: ✓ Seen 8:27 AM

Mind spinning about what Luthor could be up to, Bruce puts his phone down and dives into the pool.

The next morning, Bruce wakes up with his nose feeling strange. He examines it in the mirror and sees it’s lobster red. He never finished applying the sunscreen.

Bruce: Hn

Damian: Father. You look like a fool.

By Tuesday, Bruce’s nose is peeling. He shrugs it off and heads to the meeting. Once they’ve all settled down, he realizes his cowl is irritating his nose. Since the attendees are only Diana, Barry, Hal, J’onn, and Clark, he pulls the cowl off so he can concentrate.

Clark, finishing up his points on Luthor’s latest scheme: Any questions?

Hal: I’ve got one. Spooky, how come your nose is all white and flaky?

Bruce, flipping through his mental Rolodex of responses: Hn.

Hal: What, do you have that white nose fungus syndrome that bats get? Lol.

Bruce, stopping his mental Rolodex at Gain Sympathy:

Bruce: Are you treating me unfairly due to my medical condition?

Hal: What?

Bruce: Clark, is this workplace harassment?

Clark: Hal. :(

Hal: But he’s always…????!!! He’s… a BAT?!

Clark: Hal, I’m going have to report this to HR :/

i dont even ship them but im laughing my ass off ngl

WHAT GOOD IS LAW THAT CANT PUNISH THOSE WHO BREAK ITTTT!!!!!!!! 😩😩😩😩😩😩

I’ve been reading 1940s Batman and Detective Comics which makes panels like these

So funny, because for awhile 8 year old Dick Grayson was driving more frequently than Bruce.

Bruce even bought Dick a mini Batplane for his 8th birthday.

I just love the idea that instead of a difference in time and social norms it was young freshly Batman Bruce not having a single idea how to parent vs old father of 5-10 kids Bruce finally having figured it out.

i keep thinking about jason todd turning to catholicism as a way to help people in a universe where he didn't meet bruce, and how crazy it is that bruce thinks jason would inevitably end up a criminal without him

maybe bruce is trying to convince himself that jason needed him and that all the pain he had to endure while being robin was worth it somehow, to keep his conscience clean

some dc wips that have been rotting in my files

Bruce is going about his business one day when he realizes Tim has gone missing. Nothing suspicious has happened, so he consults the others to see where he might have gone.

Bruce wakes up on his birthday and sees a giant framed poster hanging on his wall:

Bruce: Okay.

--

Bruce, shuffling over to the table where his kids are waiting for his birthday breakfast: I saw your gift.

Cass: Do you like it? I put “awesome.”

Damian: I put “Batman.”

Tim: I put “neurotic.”

Bruce, grabbing a some sausage links and a muffin and shoving them into his robe pocket: I’m…*yawn* mostly wondering who called me a unicycle.

Batkids: *eyeballing each other*

Bruce, slumping back out of the room, yawning again: Thanks for the birthday meal, g’night.

Batkids:

Dick: So who—

Duke, jumping to his feet: LOOK I panicked okay I was the last one to pick and couldn't think of a word for U! Jason stop laughing—
