86. Robin calls Batman once a month just to check in and tell him everything is okay.
Once a month, Robin takes the cordless landline into his room and locks the door. He calls the familiar number and holds his breath while it rings.
A deep, dark voice comes through. "Hello?"
"Hey Bruce."
A seed of warmth works its way into Batman's voice. "Hey, Dick. How's life in Jumpy?"
Robin rolls his eyes at the world's nickname for Jump City. "Good. We just fought Cinderblock a few hours ago, but nothing major other than that today."
"Good to hear. How's that 'beautiful Tameranean' doing?"
"Good," said Robin with a blush.
Robin hears the muffled sound of Alfred in the background and some shuffling noises. "Alfred? Is that you?"
"Yes indeed Master Dick."
"How's…tea? Lately?"
A disapproving sniff came through the phone. "Master Dick, please do not tell me you have lost all manners in Jumpy."
"I most certainly have not, Alfred!"
The conversation went like this for a while, Robin never noticing that his whole team was outside his door, in silent 'awwwwwws' at his familial banter.
