Underground Star Speaks

Duke, dragging Damian by his hood: cmon

Damian: fuck off.

Duke: no

Damian: why.

Duke, vaguely gestures to his ruined shirt:

Damian:

Damian: that wasn’t me

Duke: YOU THREW SPAGHETTI AT ME

Damian, in ford commercial voice: have you ever been beaten by wet spaghetti cause your girlfriend had a twin sister and you got confused and fucked her dad

Duke: … why are you like this

__

Duke: do you think I’m still human?

Damian: obviously, why?

Duke: I was looking at the metahuman law in Gotham, it doesn’t class us as human

Damian: that’s ridiculous, you’re more human than some ‘normal’ people I’ve met

Duke: hm. Thanks little D

Damian: you’re welcome

__

Duke, holding Damian on his shoulder: can you get it?

Damian, holding a katana: no, it’s moving too fast

Duke: little fuckers and they’re too many legs…

Duke: just stab it

Damian: I’m not stabbing a spider

Duke: the sword was your idea??

Damian: irrelevant

__

Damian: am I a bad person.

Duke: not anymore

Damian: anymore?

Duke: reincarnation and all that, your new now and now you is good

Damian: I’ve done bad in this life

Duke: so have I, been arrested too, am I a bad person

Damian: not at all. That’s stupid to think

Duke: then you thinking you’re bad is stupid

Damian:

Damian: touché

Duke, walking into Damian’s room: hey little D-

Duke:

Duke: is that a horse

Damian, snuck a horse in:

Damian: no

Duke:

Duke: I’m telling B

Damian: DO NOT-

Duke, just got back from a bad patrol: dames?

Damian: ?

Duke: nature or nurture?

Damian: nurture.

Duke: you answer quick Jesus, why?

Damian: you are nothing like your biological dad, but from what I’ve heard of the people that raised you, you’re like them

Duke: hm. I guess that’s true, and hey you’re nothing like B and Talia, at least in the ways that matter

Damian: how so?

Duke: you have like, all your own likes and dislikes and yeah some of your ideals come from them but ‘everyone deserves a second chance’ and ‘nobody should die because of a mistake’ are pretty valid

Damian: hm.

Duke: that too, we copy each other, that one’s nurture

Damian: I’m pretty sure you got that off Alfie

Duke: honestly? Maybe

Damian/Duke, actively trying to kill each other:

Tim, silently watching:

Bruce, just got down to the cave: what are they doing.

Tim: oh that, they’ve been trying to gut each other the last 20 minutes

Bruce:

Bruce: why??

Tim: idk I haven’t asked
