Don't worry, eventually realizing/having it pointed out to him that his hair is gone will be painful enough. Well, that and struggling with the concept of breakfast burritos.

*while sniffing at it like a dog*

"Is...is this some kind of test to see if I can detect poison in a weakened and disoriented state? Because I've been doing that for years with no problems. No? People...eat these? As a breakfast food? And this isn't a prank taking advantage of my alleged lack of useless 'American child' cultural knowledge? I...I don't think I believe you..."

Also great post!

First Steph's sour, then she's sweet Great post btw. Not sure if I should make another post, since my last one wasn't too long ago

Trying to come up with a Damian post maybe. It was difficult trying to decide what his reaction is, but I think this might actually kickstart some decent character development considering there's not really enough ambiguity in the situation for him to blame getting blown up on anyone but himself and he's been trying not to focus on the fact that he almost died for real and almost got Steph killed until she kind of threw it in his face. Plus actually doing something bad enough to get BROWN mad enough to kill him is serious and unprecedented enough to shock and break him down a little.

I'm not sure if I can do it justice though.

Granted if this was anyone but Damian that would've been horrifying and child-abuse-y, but considering it IS Damian, it might actually have been oddly cathartic and beneficial for him.

I'm not sure if I can do it justice though.

Go for it. You can do it!

Done. Really hope it's okay and not massively OOC.

Nice post!

You can respond, Konica, considering we're only playing to each other right now.

I was tempted to antagonize Damian more, but that's Jason's job.

Can't, busy building him a cooler-than-before R-Cycle.

(Also hello from a Holiday Inn Express in New York.)

Ah New York! Where my head always used to go when picturing America! and then I went there. XD

How's things?

Also an R-Cycle with Nth-Metal in it could do all sorts of weird things, I recently realized.

Things are good, just don't expect much activity from me for the next few days.

Also, the idea was that Jason will build new wheels out of (metal motorcycle wheels are made out of here) infused with trace amounts of Nth Metal which will basically prevent it from flying and all that, but allow it to like, scale walls without breaking glass or whatever? And some neat new tricks, of course.

I kind of feel obligated to say this, but Stephanie Brown is sooooooooo lucky Jason Todd was not in the room when that Jason Todd-esque rage flash happened. I mean, the kid got blown up, you don't exactly need to choke him out on a hospital bed to teach him a lesson...he learned! Heh.

That sounds completely and utterly awesome and Damian will need to work hard to stay composed and not squee about it or hug him or anything. Also because he probably didn't even know there WAS Nth metal in the Cave to work with.

Regarding the rage flash, while it was definitely a bad moment for Steph considering Damian was purposefully baiting her and Kate, it DID help Damian learn some things he might've been slowly starting to learn anyway a lot more quickly even if that wasn't her intention. Luckily Damian being raised by supervillains means he has minimal context for exactly how wrong any of that was (I mean, neck-choking and ominous speeches about failure and threats are a typical day for those types, right?) but just enough context to feel REALLY bad about almost getting Steph killed, screwing the mission up and generally getting one of the few people he-almost-sorta-maybe trusts and feels-close-to-but-not-really-honest mad enough to want to kill him once she smacks him out of his attempt at acting like nothing happened.

It's a lot more traumatic a start to his learning process than it might have been, but depending on how things go he might actually start figuring out how to be a better person as an indirect result. Especially now that he's at least thinking that mistakes aren't just some thing that other people make.

Everyone just stares awkwardly.

"I've never seen him hug......anyone."

"Hasn't he only known him for like, two days?"

"Maybe it's the mutual getting blown up thing?"

"Jason.....were you in my personal armory nobody is supposed to know about?"

Thus making Grayson cry.

and then it turns out Damian was either actually just trying to kill him for stealing his bike originally but it looked adorable, or he was high on painkillers and had no idea what he was doing but it still looked adorable.

and then it turns out that Damian on painkillers acts like a cuddly human version of some combination of a puppy and a kitty, because I'm tired and not thinking straight and I have the power of headcanon. On a more plausible note, he would totally be the kind of person who would insist that the painkillers don't affect him at all while doing something only explainable via being high/hallucinating.

If Jason tried something Kate would've been all up in his grill. Good thing he wasn't there, we might've started a civil war :P

Have him jump hug Jason.

"I swear to fucking God Todd if there's a single fucking dent on that bike I will disembowel you and feed you your own guts."

"NobutreallythenewR-Cycleisreallyawesomethankyouandstuff."

Or he's just "How do say Thank You? Don't know how do."

Ahahahahah, Kate, trying to actually, like, do Bat-Family things. No but really we don't want everyone to die just because they met each other.

Post inbound friday.

Ahahahahah, Kate, trying to actually, like, do Bat-Family things. No but really we don't want everyone to die just because they met each other.

She doesn't usually get involved with intra-Bat politics, but no one messes with the bae

Except the part where he didn't learn a lesson until she did that.

Also, why would Steph fear the one Robin to get clapped? ^_^

I feel like Damian from Injustice is slowly in the making of his formation with some of these last posts! Haha. Anyway, I'm not at home at the moment, but I've been thinking how to do some fluff posts for Helena in the meantime.

Also, why would Steph fear the one Robin to get clapped?

Because he's the one Robin to get clapped!

Awesome work guys! Really enjoying these posts, sorry I haven't been able to post myself. 12 hour shifts you know? It's kind of draining. I will do my best to get a post up this weekend.

Steph and Damian are kinda actively siblings, living under the same roof for a while, always in the Batcave together. And it's been that way for a while now. This was an ugly moment between siblings, another mistake in a chain of mistakes from both, I'm sure it'll go full circle with the make-up session. He's made her more violent, she's made him emotionally mortal. Steph would normally NEVER do that. But after that night, and he seemed to learn nothing? She lost it, and spoke to him in the only language she was certain he'd understand. Anger that came from the fear of losing him. She may be afraid to admit it, but she loves him. She could not take losing him, nevermind what it would do to Batman.

Jason never got sibling love from his Batgirl.

Probably because he just inherited Dick's Batgirl. Just like everything else.
