Bruce couldn't believe it, but he was actually doing it: he was having a staring contest with a baby. What made it worse was that he was actually losing. Bruce vaguely thought that he should reevaluate his life.

Bright big blue eyes stared at him, challenging him. Bruce's own blue eyes stared back curiously, with an arched eye brow. The detective had a suspicion, but he needed to taste it before making it official. Gently, he raised a single finger and poked one of the baby's chubby cheeks, immediately earning a scowl and a baby Bat-glare.

Bruce nodded to himself, because now it was official: This was definitely Damian. The Batman stood up from where he was crouching on the ground and turned around to face his oldest sons, who were still twitching and moving uncomfortably, avoiding their father's eyes.

"Why is Damian a baby?"

The grown up sons looked to each other, trying to decide who would be the poor soul to explain the situation. When it took too long and Bruce grunted impatiently, Jason elbowed Dick in the ribs "Ow, uh…we encounter Poison Ivy and turned out she had a new poison"

"And said poison turned Damian into a baby?" Bruce inquired skeptically, Tim cleared his throat uncertainly.

"Technically, he is a toddler; he is around three years old" Bruce sent him an exasperated glance, Tim went quiet.

"Let me get this straight. When you were out patrolling, you encountered Poison Ivy and allowed your kid brother to get shot with her new poison, which turned him into a ba –" Bruce eyed Tim and corrected himself " –toddler?"

The trio nodded frantically. Bruce sighed and rubbed his eyes tiredly "I will start making the antidote"

The Batman quickly took a quick sample from his youngest son, ruffling the short black mane fondly and picked him up, placing him in Dick's arms.

"Watch over him" he ordered, looking at the three of them, before heading over the lab. The older bats stood there in silence, with the only sound coming from Damian's mouth, as he was making saliva bubbles.

"What do we do now?" Jason inquired, crossing his arms and eyeing the toddler in Dick's arms.

Dick started to bounce the baby robin up and down gently "I don't know" he answered unsure "but I have to say, baby Damian is pretty adorable. I mean, look at these puffy cheeks" he coos, poking gently the three years old on the cheek. Damian frown at him and sent him a glare, which only made Dick to coo louder.

"No, Dip" complained Damian puffing his cheeks even more as he waved his hands around, trying in vain to stop his brother's attack.

"He called me 'Dip'!" squealed Dick excited, rubbing his cheek against Damian's, who just laughed loudly because it tickles.

"Do you think he has his memory intact?" Tim inquired, eyeing the toddler with an arched brown.

None of them thought about the possibility of Damian actually recognized him, that why when Damian got turned into a baby, they quickly scooped up their brother and drove him to the Batcave, making sure that the first person Damian saw was Bruce. It never crossed their minds that maybe he recognized them too.

"Let's taste it" suggested Jason as he took Damian from Dick, ignoring the distressed sound Dick made, and held the baby at an arm length, right in front of Tim's face. The bats stared with wonder as Damian let out a happy squeal and started patting Tim's nose, a goofy smile on his round face.

"Hi, Timmy" greeted Damian, giggling.

Tim laughs and let the small hands to pat him all over his face "Hi, Dami"

"I guess that answers your question, Baby Bird" state Jason grinning, passing their baby brother to Tim, who took him gladly and kept on smiling playfully ad Damian extended his exploration to his ears and hair.

"I wanna know my new nickname" inquired Jason, leaning closely to the toddler's face "Come on, lil'shit –"

"Jason" reprimands Dick behind him.

" –lil'D, what's my name?" he asks, slightly crouching with both of his hands on his knees. Damian slowly turns to him, his face blank before clapping his hands happily.

"Jayjay!" he calls, still clapping his hands. Jason grins back at him and ruffles his black hair fondly.

"I take it. You're lucky you are cute"

"Now, that's a sentence I bet you never thought you would say" laughs Tim besides him, Jason shrugged at him, nonchalantly.

A few minutes later, Damian started getting fussy and yawned. Somewhat lazily, the three years old rubbed his left eye tiredly. Dick took him from Tim and started bouncing the sleepy toddler gently, holding him against his chest "I think it is past the little guy's bedtime"

"How long do you think we have him like this before B makes the antidote?" wondered Jason, leaning against the wall casually.

Dick shrugged as he rubbed Damian's back soothing "I would guess around two days"

Jason smirked "Do you know what that means?"

Both of his brothers glanced at him confused "What?" Tim dared to ask.

"We have missed a few important baby moments in our baby brother's life, don't you think?" he informs as he patted softly the already asleep toddler's head.

"Embarrassing photo album?" Dick inquired excitedly. Jason sent him a smirk as answer while Tim just snickered by their side. It was gonna be two long days.

Hope you liked it!
