A/N: This takes place after Performance, so Roy's accepted the entire Team, but then it ignores the rest of the series. Oh, and there are no none-Superboy clones (I just… No. Just NO.). Plus, Zatanna won't be in this. I'm sorry, but I just cannot write her AT ALL.
PS: I don't own.

Wally yawned as he wandered into the kitchen for an early morning snack. He paused when he noticed that the TV was on, though, because he was pretty sure that everyone else was asleep.
"Rob?" he asked before noticing the four other kids curled up on the couch or directly in front of it. "Oh man. Dude, Rob, wake up."
"Whuh?" Dick asked, raising his head to blink his blue eyes tiredly at Wally. "Oh, hey Walls."
"You're not wearing a mask," Wally said, noticing that for the first time. "Or your shades."
"Yeah, Bruce finally trusts you all enough not to blow my cover," Dick replied before glancing at the TV. "Turn it down, Tim."
The seven year old complied, glancing over his shoulder to smile. "Hi, Wally."
"West," Jason, who had dyed his hair pink again, said in his usual aloof way of greeting. Cass just smiled at Wally, waving slightly as her hand petted the small cat that was seated on Dick's knee.
Damian looked up and just scowled before turning back to the cartoon.
Dick, noticing that Wally was about to ask him about it, answered the unspoken question. "We're spending this summer here at the Cave. Bruce already cleared with the League, and Roy will be here too to help keep an eye on the kids."
"I'm not a child, Grayson," Jason said, glaring at the older boy. "I can take care of myself."
"Humor me," Dick said, sliding out from under Damian and placing the toddler on the couch. "Wally and me are just going to be in the kitchen, okay guys?"
Tim and Cass nodded, but the cat jumped up onto Dick's shoulder, sitting here like a parrot.
Wally smirked. "Gift from Selina?"
"You have to ask?" Dick shot back, one hand reaching up to scratch the cat's ears. "Her name is Onyx. She was one of the kittens I rescued from the canal, so Selina figured that it was only appropriate to let me have her after she started following me all over the place when I was at her place."
"You went to her place?" Wally asked, full-out smirking now. "Dude."
"Hey, Selina's pretty cool, man," Dick defended. "Besides, she's been helping us out on patrol for a while now. So sometimes we just hang out at her place when Batman decides that the two of us are done for the night."
"All that's all it is?"
"Yes." Dick's tone clearly implied that the conversation was over.
"Recognizing Red Arrow B06."
"Hey Roy," Dick said. "Thanks for agreeing to help out."
"Well, what else could I do?" Roy asked. "Force you to rely on Wally for backup?"
"Hey!"
Dick cackled at Wally's indignant look and held out his hand for a high-five, which Roy gave him. The archer paused then, though, and stared at Onyx. "There's a cat on your shoulder."
"Yeah, apparently it was a gift from Selina," Wally said with a grin, taking any opportunity to get back at Dick for countless pranks and teasing insults.
"…Catwoman gave you a cat," Roy deadpanned.
"Not like she was going to give me an actual robin," Dick retorted with a cocky smirk. He grew a little bit more serious. "Onyx was one of my rescuees."
"Ah," Roy said, looking away from the small cat to notice that Dick's 'siblings' were seated on and in front of the couch. "You know, you didn't mention why all of you are here…"
"Yeah Rob," Wally said. "Why are you all here?"
Dick just smirked and headed to the training room. "You can find out when I tell the rest of the team."
-YJ-
"Do either of you mind explaining why there are four kids in the living room?" Artemis asked, glaring at both Wally and Roy.
"Rob and his sibs are spending summer vaca at the Cave," Wally explained as he flicked through the science magazine. "At the moment, that's all we know, because Rob refuses to tell us anything else."
Artemis raised an eyebrow, but she accepted the explanation. However, she did turn her full attention to Roy. "So what's your story?"
"I'm here to help keep an eye on the kids," Roy explained, although he didn't look up from his solitaire game.
"I'm not a kid!" Jason protested. "I'm ten years old, and furthermore…"
"You're the Red Hood, yeah yeah, we get it," Wally said. "But Rob's a kid, and he's three years older than you, so your argument isn't really going anywhere, dude."
Jason scowled, but a hand on his shoulder stopped him from lunging at Wally. "No one is going to treat you like a baby, so relax, Jason," Dick said, having 'pulled a ninja move' and entering the kitchen in time to prevent any fighting.
With another scowl, Jason retreated back to the couch.
"He's got a bit of a bad temper," Artemis said before she looked over at Robin. She couldn't help but jump back a little with a squeak when she did so, though. "What the…?"
"I finally convinced Batman to let me tell you guys my civilian identity," Dick explained, grinning because he knew exactly why Artemis had squeaked.
"You, you… Freaking troll!" she accused, glaring at the younger boy. "All this time we were at the same school, and you, you… Ugh!"
"I did say we would laugh about this one day," Dick said, grinning.
Artemis just narrowed her eyes at him before leaving the room.
"Dude, she goes to Gotham Academy?" Wally asked. "Huh. You really do learn something new every day."
Dick just grinned again. Oh, Wally, you have no idea of what you'll have learned by day's end…
-YJ-
Wally was bored. It had been half an hour since Artemis had arrived and the subsequent revelation that she knew Dick Grayson from school, but he had finished his magazine twenty minutes ago.
"Come on, guys," Dick said, pulling the other Bats away from the TV with Onyx back on his shoulder. "Breakfast time."
Wally took the opportunity to snatch the remote and started flipping through the channels, looking for something interesting.
"-Rubber ducky, you're the one-" Kids show.
"-The stock market has recently-" Boring.
"-Gotham's so-called 'most eligible' is no longer-" News.
"-now, add in the-" Wait, go back. Gotham's 'most eligible'?
Quickly switching back to the news channel, Wally leaned in. "That's right, folks. His status changed from 'single' to 'married' one week ago when the secret wedding between Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle took place in a small chapel here in our very own Gotham City."
Wally blinked. Several times. He even pinched himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming.
"Wally, there are about two dozen pancakes done if you want some… Are you alright?" Roy asked, crouching down next to the elder of his two best friends and almost-brothers.
"Dude…" Wally said, pointing to the TV in shock.
Roy looked up only for his mouth to fall open. "But… That's…"
"Yeah," Wally said.
The pair exchanged a glance before both were on their feet. "ROBIN!"
They were answered with the echo of one of the Boy Wonder's signature cackles.
-YJ-YJ-YJ-
E/N: Yeah, so, this may seem a little… Yeah, I'm not entirely what I was thinking when I came up with this. I was trying to figure out how Robin/Dick could have the craziest summer anyone had ever seen.
So, let me know what you think while I type up the next chapter, m'kay?
