Damian Wayne, not only the heir to the bat, but also the demon heads heir. A high title, indeed.

With that, comes a high standard. Not only set from the multitude of (mainly) successful robins behind him, but also from being a Wayne socialite at galas, all the way to being trained in the high mountains of Nanda Parbat.

So, Damian, being a stoic and brooding young man, isn’t the strange bit. No, not at all. It’s not the way on how he addresses his family members by their last names, or how he has biting cold comments to the friendliest people.

That’s expected. In an almost patronizing way, if you truly know his past, it is expected.

All this in mind, you must understand how truly strange it is to see Damian acting so… smitten. Yeah. Smitten. Perhaps even infatuated.

It’s not obvious. The only obvious thing about Damian is his bluntness in his insults and pointed actions, because that’s on purpose.

But at the same time, it is.

Dick will explain that later.

What does this mean? It means that Damian has someone on his eye.

And what’s the point of living with a family of detectives if they’re not gonna use their abilities and skills?

_______________________________

Dick’s observant. Emotionally, physically, mentally. All around. Makes him an overall good vigilante and police officer.

He’s a good friend to many, an uh… lover, as some would say and especially a good brother. Atleast in his mind!

He makes sure to visit the manor atleast once or twice every couple of months, texting his siblings, making sure that all of them are doing their due diligence of taking care of themselves and the others around them!

Sure, not all of them respond, like Jay who just commonly leaves him on read. But rest assured, Dick makes sure to check in at one of his safe houses to check if he’s alive and well every six months or so!

So, when he catches small details like the letters, he gets suspicious. Really suspicious.

What he doesn’t do immediately? Bring it up to their siblings to make it a big deal. That wouldn’t help Damian explain anything to him. So he stayed quiet and watched.

And boy, did he watch. Lingered on his every other month visits, just a couple more days. Suddenly, he starts patrolling more in Gotham; ‘drug smuggling from gotham to bludhaven, trying to find the source in Gotham to stomp them out’. Which is true, it is happening, but it’s not the main reason to why he’s there. And despite Bruce’s efforts to let him handle it, since it’s in Gotham, Dick’s persistence pushed through.

You wanna know the evidence that he’s gathered so far?

Damian sending out letters. Not exactly shocking. He has been consistently sending some to his mother whenever something happens.

But this? This is… weekly. Not every so couple of months like he normally does for his mother. Weekly. Not monthly.

It could be to Jon. But let’s be honest, if Damian were to even send letters to Jon, it sure as hell wouldn’t be weekly. Dick proved himself further when he caught a glimpse of a letter and it was being sent somewhere in the downtown bit of Gotham.

Downtown Gotham. He’s not trying to say anything, he’s just surprised that Damian’s sending letters to anyone around that area.

If you thought the letters were bad, you might just die when you hear this.

Damian’s been receiving letters aswell. Again, not super surprising at that fact. All the children of Bruce Wayne have received letters. Most of the time, they’re girls or boys, confessing unrequited love.

But, it’s the fact that he’s actually reading some. I mean, after the pile up of so many, you stop trying to read them(in Dicks case atleast).

Now, call Dick a detective, but it’s most likely from the recipient of Damian’s letter.

You may think that’s the end of it. No, oh no, that’s never the end of it. Sometimes, he’ll catch Damian reading some of said letters, with a small, content little smirk on his face! Not the, bold, smug, Damian type of smirk. It was… so soft. Going against everything Damian’s been raised as.

So you must imagine Dicks sudden swelling in his chest, when he’s realized that… his little brother has a crush.

Uh… kinda barebones. I know, I know. Like I said, all tips and criticism are accepted! If you want to do requests, I have a strawpage on my blog if you wanna check that out!

Uh… so.. next bit is supposed to be similar to Dick confronting Damian or something along those lines. Yknow yknow do you guys see it?

I’m also having a small idea to do summer activities with DC and invincible (etc) characters. Uh. So that’s also gonna be in the workshop soon since I haven’t decided to do it yet.
