Bruce is working on something in the JL headquarters. very busy, very important work.

arguments out in the hallway filter though the door, he tunes it out at first, not having heard the words really, so why bother, he has work to do. not his circus, not his monkeys.

then the argument comes closer to the door and he can make out the words... and the voices. it was Dick. and Jason.

goddamn it

those are indeed, his monkeys. the JLA is indeed, his circus.

Bruce Wayne is happy to nepotism his children jobs. but he has rules about it

Batman 100% repects his villains, and his villains respect him in turn. does that mean they like each other? oh absolutely not, they for the most part absolutely hate each other.

Batman is known for at the very least listening to the motivation of his villains and suggesting reasonable suggestions other then chaos or distruction, then understands if they say "oh yeah, i tried that already, didint work out very well." not that he understands them then going to crime, just understands that it didint work.

and the ones that they havent tried and are still reasonable? some villians have actually been known to give that other option a go. they would rather avoid prision and that is an avanue that is legally avalible to them.

Jimmy Olsen, a few years after meeting the Justice Leauge, goes though his contact list, wondering when and how his life got so damned weird.

Damian being a menace for months after arriving at the manor. barely cooperating with Bruce let alone the rest of Bruce's kids.

Damian fights constantly, refusing to fall asleep all the way in front of any of them becouse he doesnt trust them yet.

then one day Damian falls asleep in the batmobile on the way back to the manor. just passes out. Bruce pulls over to take off his cloak and wrap Damian up in it, the Robin cape is thinner and its a cold night after all, doesnt want his kid getting cold

when he gets back to the Batcave, Bruce tells Alfred the data is in the Batmobile's computer and he will update him once he's gotten Damian in bed. he scoops the kid up and brings him back to his room
