I would love an animated show of him just doing the craziest shit during the day, and nobody in the Batfam really knows or understands how hard it is to have the day-shift, especially when you're the ONLY one.

Like one episode, Gotham gets dimensionally displaced or something and Duke has to solve it alone because NO ONE was answering comms. Or some magic user casts a spell that sends Gotham back to the fifties or something, and Duke is stuck solving it before Bruce finishes his bat-nap.

Duke stops a robbery and talks to Dick about it afterwards.

Duke: I stopped a bank robbery today.

Dick: Oh, I've done that before!

Duke: See, something we day-shifters and night-shifters have in common! Honestly, the only troubling thing was trying to keep all the hostages safe.

Dick:

Dick: What hostages?

Dick then finds out that banks aren't decoration. People do indeed go to them during the day! It's something he's never had to deal with before!

This is very stupid but it’s genuinely what I think about every time I consider skipping dinner after work

but you were never really there
