Little Yellow Creature :)

Dick is good at hugs but I just know that Jason is all soft muscle until he flexes, which means he gives the best hugs. One of the Crime Alley kids finds out about this when they hug him after he saves them from being mugged and word gets around to the other kids about it. The first few times he’s asked for a hug when he checks on some of the kids shelters he’s a little surprised but obliges anyway, now when he’s out on patrol and one of the street kids sees him and asks he doesn’t hesitate. He knows there could be a million reasons why they’re asking, and if it helps them, then who is he to say no?

One night it happens while he was on patrol with Dick, they had started taking a break together semi-regularly, Jason still wasn’t at the manor often because he still felt awkward around the family, and Dick is just happy to spend as much time with his brother as he can get. So imagine Dick’s surprise, when they’re waiting for their food at a food truck, one of the kids comes up and asks Jason for a hug and he gives one without a second thought. Dick is just standing there like “????”, thinking there’s no way he saw what he just saw. That is until the kid leaves after and Jason immediately turns to him and threatens that if he tells anyone what he just saw he’ll never talk to him or the family again. Dick, of course, says he won’t tell anyone. And he doesn’t. He’s just glad his brother has people there for him.

For a few weeks Jason is ready for someone to ask or start teasing him about giving out hugs while on patrol when they address him, but no one even comes close to mentioning it. The next time he’s on break with Dick he asks why he hasn’t told anyone when he very easily could have.

“You asked me not too Littlewing.” he said, as if that answer meant anything at all. Dick must have seen his confusion because he spoke again. “You care about them Jason, it’s clear they care about you too. Of course I wish you’d open up to the family a little more, but I’m not going to tell them something you clearly didn’t even want me seeing. Knowing our family they’d push for an answer as to why or something and they’d only end up pushing you away instead of letting you open up on your own time.” he explained. Jason stared at him, that was the last answer he was expecting to hear.

After a few moments of finishing their food in silence they got up from the edge of the roof they were sitting on and threw their trash away. Jason watched as Dick started to the edge of the roof before finishing patrol, stopping at the edge to face Jason to say something. Jason wasn’t listening, one second he was watching his brother leave the next he was hugging him. His face flushed with embarrassment but he couldn’t bring himself to let go. “Thank you..” he murmured, vaguely aware of Dick’s arms hovering around him almost hesitantly for a moment before squeezing him back. They stayed like that for a few moments before they had to let go to finish their patrols. If Dick heads back to the cave more chipper than he usually is after patrol then that’s nobody’s business but his own that he just got a hug from his little brother, something they hadn’t done since even before he had died.

Can I get more of the batsiblings trying to protect each other from their traumas?

Tim checks each birthday gift his siblings receive from Bruce before they get it

Jason is subtly watching Bruce after his siblings break rules to ensure he doesn't lash out

Dick makes Bruce include Dick in all mission plans involving his siblings

Cass will subtly nudge her siblings off of the training mat when they've been at it for too long

Duke tries everything he can to prevent his siblings and their friends from getting gassed by a Rogue

Damian will loudly declare his annoyance with a different sibling for them obviously being a part of the family

I love how someone heard Bart call Tim “fearless leader” ONCE and the whole team just went “that’s so fucking endearing. We will now use that for whoever is in charge.”

I love the Young Justice polycule so much.

in some kind of parallel world bruce isn’t a vigilante and instead opens a bat cafe where you can enjoy tea and snacks while feeding a bunch of bats and dick gets a bunch of followers on his insta from recording said bats being cute as hell

also dami and titus w/ a tie is a nod to a brief scene from this fic which is super cute and has some of the best batfam interactions i’ve seen in a while so go read it for clear skin
