~Rated F for Fluff.
"What the heck is going on here?"
Wonders the Flash out loud as he walks into the meeting room of the watchtower, because at the moment all the holo-screens in the room are treating the entire justice league to a showing of Pirates of the Caribbean 1, set on a never ending loop.
"I repeat, what is going on here? I thought movie nights were on Fridays." shouts The Flash over the booming of the movie.
Batman gives him a one worded answer that explains everything as he furiously taps away at the leagues main computer console attempting (to no avail) to end the Jack Sparrow marathon.
"Robin."
"Bruce... you promised." whines the Boy Wonder as Batman suits up to head to the watchtower.
"I know Dick, I'm sorry I cant stay. This is a mandatory meeting, I cant exactly skip out on it" Bruce sighs, honestly wishing for just one quiet night in. Just one night to spend with his son and relax.
"I understand, Bruce" Robin says sadly, knowing it was foolish to think that Bruce would ever skip out on anything Justice League related just to watch a movie with him.
It almost breaks Bruce's heart to hear his son so sad.
"How about I let you in on a secret?" Bruce asks, pulling on his cowl and becoming Batman once again, crouching down to be eye level with his ward. Robin, suddenly interested, leans in closer.
"I would much rather be home with you than go that meeting" he says with a smile.
Robin perks immediately "Really?" he asks.
"Yup, those things are always dreadfully boring, it would a bad example to skip out on it, but I wish I could miss every one of 'em" Batman says with an uncharacteristic smile.
"All I ever do is sit there and pretend to be listening" he finishes with a laugh.
Robin lets out a happy giggle as Batman pulls him onto his shoulders. Pulling on his gloves with Robin still on his shoulders Batman presses a few keys on the main zeta-beam console.
"I'll be back as soon as I can" He says, placing Robin back on the ground and buckling on his utility belt.
Robin waves as Batman disappears into the zeta-beam, an idea already forming in his head.
