Okay, this is simply a collection of one-shots that I have written focused on the bat-family. There will be plenty of AU chapters in this collection.

In this story Dick's legal name is Richard Grayson-Wayne, Jason's is Jason Todd-Wayne and Tim's is Timothy Drake-Wayne. I will mess with their ages and who they patrol as due to logic and story needs.

Disclaimer: I do not own Batman or anything else I might happen to mention in this piece of fanfiction.


Chapter 1. Family Dinner

Dick's POV


Family dinner's have always been few and far between and less as more and more people have joined our family. Being so rare makes them even more precious for me at least. They rarely ended well though.

When Alfred told me that we were having one tonight I was extremely exited to say the least. It had been many weeks since we had the last one due to at least one person having something else that they had to do during the regular dinnertime.

I was a tiny bit surprised when I arrived that everyone else was already in the room. Normally it will take several minutes of fighting and protesting to get everyone into the same room at the same time.

I caught Bruce's eye and figured out that Alfred had insisted on the dinner and it was not because of a lack of cases. He must have been working on something beforehand and was interrupted by the dinner.

The first 15 minutes passed without any incident. Which was hopefully a good sign and nothing bad would happen, it could also mean that it would explode later on. Bruce and Jason had tried to give Alfred the Bat-glare but after it having no effect on the butler they stopped and just ate their appetizers to get this over with as soon as humanly possible. Tim and Damian kept arguing with each other and glaring away at each other throughout the meal so far.

After those first fifteen minutes the impossible to avoid happened, Damian tried to attack Tim. "Drake, you are an idiot whom is unworthy to be in Father's presence let alone live under the same roof as him." Damian said as he launched himself at Tim.

They started to fight each other and after not even a full minute Jason joined in on the fight with Damian. He had shouted, "Demon brat, I'll help you destroy Replacement."

It was at that moment that Alfred walked into the room carrying the main course and he noticed the fighting. "Master Bruce, Master Dick. Do you think that you should break up the fight between the young masters?" He asked which meant that we had to go and break up the fight.

We both attempted to do it without attacking them at first but after only a little bit of time we realized that this was not going to work at all we joined in on the fight helping out Tim. We thought that this would allow the sides be closer to being even. There was no perfectly even teaming that was possible.

We all could sense Alfred's disapproving gaze on us for not working on breaking up the fight, for starting a fight and for joining in a fight respectively. He sighed, "There will be cookies for anyone that surrenders right now." After stating that Alfred left the room, hopefully to go and get the cookies because while we were stubborn and fought well no one could say no to Alfred's cookies.

Less than 30 seconds later four chairs were occupied once again. Alfred's cookies were simply amazing and almost impossible to near impossible to pass up. Damian was the one who had not yet surrendered.

"Come sit down, now Dami!" I stated urgently to him. If he was at the table by the time Alfred returned he most likely would still get cookies. I wouldn't want him to miss Alfred's cookies. No one should miss them.

"Fine, Grayson." He said as he came to sit in his seat at the dinner table just in time for Alfred to walk in with dinner a second time.

"Master's you will receive your cookies, if you can eat your dinner with retaliative peace that is when you shall receive your cookies which I shall go and make now." Alfred stated as he put out dinner. Then he promptly left the room to make those cookies.

The rest of the dinner went smoothly with all of us talking about work and school respectfully. Later on we got on to talking about some of our old cases.

Immediately after we had finished our meal did Alfred come out with our cookies. They tasted perfect as his cookies always did.

All in all it was a wonderful night even if all of us went out on patrol a couple of hours later then we normally did and I am 100% okay with that happening.
