CW: Fanon characterization + OOC + BatKids referring to Bruce as âBaba,â âPapa,â and âPopsâ+ Familial yandere themes
Damian didnât have a crush on his father, but he hated how many people did.
He hated how shameless people were. How easily their eyes wander, how effortlessly their thoughts wandered farther.
Every time his Baba would drop him off at school heâd see their eyes lingers. The students; the staff, he cursed his small size, not being big enough to shield their lustful gazes from his father.
It didnât stop at the staff, or the school, it felt like it was everyone at times. Every Gala, every charity ever, every public attraction. Even in his Babaâs hero work his Baba has lustful eyes on him. Lustful eyes Damian very much did not approve of.
Baba says heâs being silly. That heâs imagining things and looks that arenât really there. Damianâs not fooled as easily as his Baba. After all, learning to read people was required in the League. He can read clearly that his Baba is only saying this because he doesnât think heâs desirable enough for even one manâs gaze.
That irates him even more. His father is the prettiest man heâs ever met. Damian knows this as certain. His mother wouldnât settle for anything less than perfection. Whoever put this ill idea into his Babaâs mind will be thoroughly punished once found.
This cycle of frustration confuses Damian. Heâs repulsed by the idea of his Baba taking interest in one of these lecherous gazes. None of their filthy minds are worthy to even consider courting his father. However, his Baba not being able to see whatâs in front of him frustrates him more. His Baba is pretty. Too lenient for how pretty he is. He needs guards for his heart. Too easily swayed by simple Acts of Services.
Damian decides to confront his siblings about the matter. They must have some knowledge of protecting Baba from libidinous men (and women).
Damian strides into the living room on a day Baba is out. He is fighting an out-of-world threat that requires all of the Justice League. Damian is typically against these missions, even the Justice League doesnât know when to keep their hands to themselves (especially the kryptonian). However, Damian uses his Babaâs absence as an opportunity; it happens to be one of those rare days where multiple siblings of his are present.
Damian stands in front of the Tv, âI require everyoneâs attention.â
Lazy eyes follow attentive ones until all the attention is on him.
Tim turns off the Tv, giving Damian his full attention, âYes, Damian?â
Damian pauses for a moment before opening his mouth to speak until Jason until him off.
âYoo-hoo? You have our attention? Yaâ gonna ask your question or not?â Jason asks impatiently, his attention split between his phone and the conversation.
Damian glares at him, âIâm getting there, Todd.â He looks around again, making sure all eyes were on him before posing his question: âHow do you get people to stop looking at Father?â
The atmosphere in the room shifts. The brothers attention locks onto the question, immediately followed by darker eyes and tones. Possessive ones, almost. Suggesting they, too, are not found of people trying to take away their father.
Dick sits up from his lounging position âI used to be really obnoxious about it, making sure to hold his hand and call him âPapaâ as much as I could in public. Once people realized he had a kid, theyâd lose interest. That didnât work for everyone though. When it didnât, Iâd hug Papaâs arm and fake cry.â
His tone suggests heâs being honest, but leaving something out. Damianâs eyes narrow.
Jason, also sits up, turning his phone off. âIâd keep him home as much as possible. Constantly busying him with somethinâ that needed to be done at home. I would pretend I was scared of going outside alone, making sure Pops was always by my side.â
Much like Dickâs, heâs being honest but heâs hiding something. Damian is not fond of the lack of a full answer.
Tim doesnât bother beating around the bush, âDisposing of them effectively.â
The three turn to Tim with varying responses.
Dickâs eyes widen a bit, more suprised Tim has the guts to admit it than the admissions contents themselves.
Jason raises a brow of amusement and holds back a grin.
Damianâs head turns to look directly at Tim, his interest has been piqued.
Damian questions further, âElaborate, Drake.â
Jason snickers, âExposing the family secret so young, Timmy?â
Tim rolls his eyes, returning his attention to Damian, âWeâd dispose of them. The ones who get too friendly.â
Dick adds on, âNot everyone can be handled that way, Dami. Only the ones who really get on our nerves⌠more than usual.â
âAnyone who father shows any signs of reciprocating feelings for,â Jason clarifies.
Damian pauses for a moment, âI see⌠and how do you all execute this method?â
Naturally, Damianâs interest and support of this method are in favor. This is necessary. His Baba needs to be protected, and Damian will do anything to ensure that. This was a solution he very much supports.
âFirst you find a target threat, then you report back to the group.â
âWe work fast, before Pops even notices the feelings bloominâ, so you better be watching for any and every possible sign,â Jason adds.
Damian nods, âI understand⌠and then, Drake?â
âThen we find an area he wonât be remembered.â
âAn alley way or incinerator works best!â Dick chimes.
âUnderstood.â
Jason grins, âWeâll fill you in on the specifics when we get there, Bat-Brat.â
Dick hugs Damian tightly, âAwww! Our Baby-Dami is growing up now!â
Damianâs cheeks faintly flush with humiliation, âPut me down, Grayson! I have only come to seek guidance on protecting Baba, not for your physical affections!â
âââââââ
Soon enough, Damian has become quite accustomed to this effective method. It isnât nearly as efficient as heâd please, but it puts him at ease knowing he can do something about the particular pesky bugs suitors.
The only rule is to not let Baba know. Which is not an issue, as long as their Baba views them as angels, theyâll make sure all the dirty work is handled behind the scenes.
Baba will never have to worry about an unworthy companion. Theyâll take care of him. Theyâll protect him. Theyâll never leave him. Their Babaâs image will be perfect. Their Baba is perfect, and if their Baba ever needs someone?
Theyâll always be there. Not some random insect who thinks they can suddenly come into their family, because they donât know the pain, the love, the grief, the trust, everything that itâs taken to get their Baba thriving how he is now. Theyâll never know. They wonât let them.
Damian wonât let anyone take their Father, their Papa, his Baba away from them. Heâll make sure of it by any means possible.
