It wasn't often when the whole family was able to be at the manor to sit around the large table for dinner without a big attack or break out in Gotham being the reason. They've all agreed to try and all gather at the manor every three months once some members of the family moved to live around the world, agreeing on a set weekend to all gather at the manor and be a family again. 

It was weekends like the current one that they all grew fond and warm over as they lived under one large roof all over again. Sharing new stories and passing on moments over their life that the rest of the family might have missed. 

Partners were sometimes invited, normally every six months since they all wanted a single weekend just as the bats and birds of Gotham. All patrolling togehter at night together, swapping up patrol partners and keeping criminals on their toes. 

The Wayne's were almost all home as they all waited on one of the last siblings, who funny enough still lived in Gotham but were running a little late. Even if his boyfriend had long since arrived at the manor to help Alfred settle all his siblings in. 

All lazing around in the family longue and co-existing together without a single problem. A few arguments and petty fights had long since broken out before the truce fell over them all without any force being needed. 

Steph and Cass was happily cuddled up on the floor, watching some cute animal videos on the tablet and cooing over some of the more lethal animals that were looking adorable in the moment. 

Duke was slouched over the sofa, playing on his phone with Damian sitting on the opposite end finishing a sketch inside his art book. Alfred the cat laying on the window seat with Titus laying on the floor underneath and Haley happily getting on Bruce's nerves from where he was distracted with W.E. paperwork in his study.

Kate was happily growing merry with some of the good and expensive wine after breaking into the wine safe, yet again. Babs had decided to skip the weekend, as always and promised to meet up with them on Sunday morning before the girls left for Hong Kong.  Alfred away in the kitchen, preparing dinner for all of the family.

Dick was calmly watching tv in one of the end chairs, watching another animal documentary with his phone left in his lap. He had been texting his boyfriend before they fell into a content stop within the conversation and the other promising he'd be arriving soon enough.  

"Who disturbed my privacy by taking my phone and changing Steph's ringtone into "You want my sister" behind my back. You guys didn't even stop and think over how those involved with the break up would feel?!" Tim yelled out in frustration as he came storming into the room after Steph had called him a couple minutes before to join the rest of the family instead of working on a case in the cave like he had been doing. 

"The stalker did not just accuse US of breaking any privacy rules, did he?" Duke asked with pure judgment as he raised an eyebrow towards his siblings over Tim trying to shame them over breaking the privacy line after he had purposely stalked and dug into their lives without their contents all the time he's known them. 

"Drake, none of us care for your sad love life nor that your ex is currently engaged to our older sister. Years has passed since your failed courtship with Brown and if she has moved on with time, shouldn't you?" Damian hissed out unimpressed over his brother causing another commotion and stirring up the past during a family weekend. 

Tim snapped his head towards the youngest Wayne, still worked up and ready to accuse him over being the one to mess with his phone's ringtones. Damian placing his art book down on Duke's legs and preparing to fight Tim if the older asked for one. 

Steph, Cass and Duke all glancing between the two brothers, awaiting for the show before dinner tonight. Silently placing bets between themselves as Dick merely turned the tv off, knowing he wouldn't be able to turn the volume up high enough to drown out his brothers being at war with one another. He's tried plenty of times and most times ends up with him being scolded for having tv on so loud. 

"Tim is correct. Whoever is to blame for messing with Tim's contacts ringtone should have thought over those involved with this prank" Dick announced as he casually paced around his siblings, sending an disapproving look towards the others as he knew they've done wrong.  

"Thank you, Dic-" Tim started to thank the mama bird before being cut off. 

"Steph, I'm sorry if the prankster has made you uncomfortable. How do you feel over the song being used as your contact on Tim's phone?" Dick asked with an apologetic tone, squatting down by the blonde with concern in his eyes as he worried she'd be upset over such a prank. 

"Nah, I'm finding it rather funny. I'm actually disappointed I didn't come up with the prank first or much sooner. Should have done the moment I started dating Cass" Stephine goofily grinned back, only upset over not thinking about such a prank first. 

"Hey! Shouldn't you be checking on how I feel? I'm you're little bird while she's the sister in law" Tim cried back, feeling a bit betrayed over Dick not babying him first.  

"Seriously? I should check if you're heartbroken while knowing you're dating three other guys currently. Said guys you even plan to move in with them in a couple of years once you've all found stable day jobs. As well as one of those guy's currently being the brother of one of my friends and a friend you were once close with before falling for his younger brother. You've broken the code guy as much as Cass has broken the sibling code. Steph's the only current victim due to being pulled into this prank without warning" Dick huffed back as he crossed his arms over his stomach, standing up and tilting his hip to the side as he raised an daring eyebrow. Wondering if his brother really wanted to be babied over an ex during his current dating state and the code he broke. 

"A friend's brother?" Cass asked with a puzzled expression. 

"Tim became friend's with Kon while he was still Robin and then grew a crush on Conner when the clone was found and taken in by the Kents as a new brother. So, Tim was technically friend's with one of his current's boyfriends brothers before dating said younger brother. He broke the friend code by dating their sibling" Dick explained as he glanced towards his little sister with a smirk. 

"The change in my contacts no longer seem to be overly problematic for me. Never mind my earlier outburst" Tim sheepishly grinned back as he hurriedly took a seat on the other end chair and started dating his three boyfriends to hide behind the screen of his phone due to his embarrassment. 

"This family is the reason Bab's and I are currently very happily single" Duke commented as he knew he'd never expect anyone to deal with his family and still hold any love for him after meeting them. 

"Clearly someone hasn't seen a certain Supergirl shove her tongue down a certain ex batgirls throat recently" Dick thought to himself as he took his seat again, wondering when Kara and Babs was going to announce their relationship, they've been dating for a good eight years by now. 

"I believe you mean yourself, Gordon and I. I hold no need for romance" Damian stated as he looked towards his brother to correct him over his own comment. 

"You've been courting Colin since the moment you've met him" Steph shot back towards the baby bat of the family, rolling her eyes fondly as she wondered if she was so awkward towards her first love as he was. 

"I am not! Colin is merely my good friend" Damian snapped back as he glared the blonde for assuming wrongly between him and his best friend. 

"Sorry Dami but Steph's right. You've gained a crush on Colin and would most likely end up dating him and may even marry him. You've never stood a chance with your genes" Dick admitted with an apologetic smile as he looked towards his adopted son, knowing he had harboured feelings for Colin. Thankfully Colin already felt the same, Dick was just waiting for the two to actual date already. 

"My genes?" Damian questioned with an confused eyebrows furrowed. 

"You've gained you're father's adoption habit by all the animals you take in. But you've reached the next level, you're fallen in love with the first orphan you've gained in your life. It was only a matter of time due to my redhead thing. Colin's a redhead and an orphan, you never stood a chance" Dick simply explained as if it was all so obvious that anyone could have figured out that Damian's weakness in romance would be redheaded orphan. 

"I knew Dick grew Damian in a test tube instead of Talia. He's always been a parent to him" Cass whispered towards her girlfriend, always knowing Dick was Damian's real parent. 

"Damnit. I owe Jason fifty dollars now. But I could win a $100's from Tim if I prove that Jason's actual the second real parent to Damian while he was created in a lab and not the natural way" Steph grumbled back before perking up as she still held the theory over Damian secretly being Jason and Dick's love child all along created with their dna in a lab somewhere. 

"B might have a reason why he forbids us from running a dna test of Damian. He knows the truth" Cass mumbled back as she glanced towards Damian, all of them finding it strange that Bruce hid up Damian's dna test results and merely mentioning the boy being his son. 

"Baba, I do not have the redheads curse nor do I have an adoption problem. Resecuring animals is a perfectly health hobby and a good deed due to saving so many animal lives and giving them a good home to grow in. If I desire to marry than I'd call my Mother and agree to her setting up another arranged marriage" Damian huffed back tiredly as if he was dealing with an idiot in his life and shaking his head over his baba's thought progress. Making it clear that he'd have no need to fall in love when his mother would deal with his romance within a single call. 

"Arranged marriage? Those still happen?" Tim blurted out in surprise as he thought they died out by now. 

"Of course they do, Drake. Arrange Marries keeps the bloodlines strong and pure. Mother has taken it as her duty to find suitable wives for me to chose from when I wish to wed someday. She's allowed me to hold a mistress who've I've fallen in love but I marry whoever she's arranged the marriage with and bring fourth an heir by my wife" Damian mumbled back as he turned to his other brother, purposely rolling his eyes at him where he could see him doing so. 

"And since when has Talia been working towards those arranges marries for you, baby bat?" Dick questioned with an overly sweet smile as he gripped at his phone after the news he just learnt. 

"Since the moment I was able to hold a sword without stumbling over due to it's weight" Damian confessed as if it was no big deal. 

"Excuse me, I just need to make a phone call" Dick replied as he stood up, hurrying out of the room and already finding an certain assassin's number. 

The rest of the room merely shrugged over the oldest leaving and returning to relaxing and doing their own thing within the longue. Steph and Tim starting to grow a conversation over some show that she and Bart both watched meaning Tim was often forced to watch it in the background with his boyfriends. 

Cass and Duke holding their own conversations, talking over Duke's school life and Cass life in Hong Kong. As well as talking over Cass and Steph's wedding plans, even if both women agreed to a long enjoyment as they wanted to reach their thirties before marrying. 

Damian returning to finishing his sketch without a care over his Baba, Father and Jason not currently being around and trying to peek at his current sketch. 

All of them flinching as the manors front doors came bursting open before being slammed shut with some force. Urgent footsteps hurrying down the hallway somewhere within the manor and they all knew something big must have happened if Jason wasn't apologizing towards Alfred for treating the doors so roughly. 

"Dickhead! Why the fuck as Talia sent out a message to all league of assassins members currently in Gotham with a free pass to assassinate you within the next three days. I'm not losing another apartment due to the two of yours fights" Jason yelled out towards his boyfriend as he's just got an interesting voicemail while riding towards the manor. Not wanting to deal with an apartment being blown up or ruined so much that it was no longer liveable due to his boyfriend's war with the female Al Ghul. 

"Coward! Tell her to assassinate me herself!" Dick screamed back as he started texting out "coward" towards Talia for sending her men instead of facing him herself. 

"I thought you found some form of truce with her, Dickie? I just bought that rug I liked for our place. I'll never get blood stains out of it" Jason whined back as he's been saving up on his self spoil money to buy that rug and thought their apartment would be save enough to keep it. He really likes his new rug. 

"Talia started our disagreement. She decided to have random beef with a ten year old all those years ago. I just didn't back down from her threats. And anyway, we're mortal enemies, we live to die only by the others hands. You knew about our disagreement when you confesses and knew you had to accept the fact that Talia and I will forever try to murder one another" Dick argued back in his own defence as Talia was to blame for starting their disagreement by hating him first during their first meeting. As well as reminding his boyfriend that he already knew the deal between him and Talia before they agreed to date. 

"Baba you promised to not fight to the death with mother anymore after the last time. Father made you promise, both of you" Damian called out in a disapproving tone over his Baba and mother breaking their promise to father. 

"Sorry, Baby bat. I shouldn't have broken my promise nor did I want to make you sad" Dick yelled back guilty, not wanting his son to be dragged into his disagreement with Talia.

Jason and Dick stayed in the hallway, quietly speaking between themselves over how to handle the next three days. Knowing that Gotham was now a hunting ground for the league towards Dick. Jason praying  that his new rug wouldn't be caught in the cross fire. 

As well as Dick explaining his reason for ringing Talia up to rip her a new one but mentioning their son's forced arranged marriages. Jason freezing up, thinking over the news he was told before pulling out his phone to text Talia "Coward. Come fight my man yourself like a real warrior. And please stop trying to control our son like a puppet" before placing his phone away. Ignoring any replies the older women might send back, knowing it'd be rather angry words due to her still not agreeing to Dick and Jason adopting her son and co-parenting with Bruce. 

The news clearly being spread around Gotham over Nightwing being a wanted man by the league and that meant such rumours were soon alerted towards the dark knight of the city. Earning the study doors to be yanked open, Haley rushing out happily towards the longue to bother the others for a fuss, her tongue hanging out of her mouth. Bruce meanwhile was storming out of the room to find his oldest. 

"Richard John Grayson-Wayne! Did you start another fight with Talia again? I thought you both agreed to be civil since Damian got involved with the family" Bruce screamed out in dad mode as he went straight towards his oldest. Not believing this war was still happening. 

"We'll never live in peace until only one of us is left standing and placing flowers on the others grave on our fight's anniversary date" Dick announced back like a rebelling teen who's been told to break up with his currently no good partner. 

"I forbid you from leaving the manor for the next three days. I will not have Gotham turn into a bloodbath nor be almost wiped out like the pair of you almost did with league of assassins island" Bruce snapped back as he glared towards his son, refusing to place Gotham in danger of being the battlegrounds for the pair. 

"Bane was such a snitch. I can't believe he called my Dad on me" Dick hissed out as he crossed his arms over his chest, sulking. 

"You almost destroyed the planet if I didn't step in to stop the fight" Bruce yelled back, throwing his hands in the air, not believing his son was being so calm over that time. 

"You're the one who told us to finally work out our differences and it was working. We were about to wipe the other out from this universe" Dick argued back as he sent an accusing stare towards his father figure. 

"I meant with words or a fair truce. Not to plan each others murder" Bruce huffed back in frustration and not taking the blame for the destruction over the LOA base. Ra Al Ghul still has a restraining order between Dick and the base. 

"You should have been more clearer, B. You need to use your words better or I can't understand you" Dick mumbled back as if Bruce had clearly failed to communicate. 

"I have a no killing rule!" Bruce screamed back as he gripped his head, feeling as if he was growing more greys. 

"Slade would have let me fight to death with Talia" Dick grumbled back as he glanced to the side. 

"Slade wanted to raise you to be an assassin" Bruce reminded the other over what the man had hoped to turn his son into. 

"At least he had his half of the adoption papers signed within the first month of having me" Dick pointed out with a pout. 

"Are you still bitter over me adopting everyone else?! Fine! I'll adopt you right now" Bruce snapped back in irritation over his son bringing the adoption thing up all over again. 

"No way! It'd be awkward trying to marry Jason if we're both down as "Waynes". Stop trying to ruin my relationships!" Dick yelled back as if Bruce was purposely trying to ruin another one of his relationships. 

"I can't win with you. Stop attacking Talia! I'm going to call her right now and scold her just as much. I'm not playing any favourites before either of you accuse me of doing so" Bruce huffed back as he walked off, pulling out his phone to ring Talia and scold her next. 

Dick chasing after him to make sure he was just as scream-y and harsh on her as he was with him. Hopefully being even more mean towards her. 

Jason merely sighed as he watched his boyfriend act like a married couple with their adopted father in the hallway. Rolling his eyes and heading into the longue as he wasn't going to get involved and decided to sulk a little. This weekend was meant to be his turn to pick a fight with Bruce and now he'd have to wait until their next visit. It wasn't fair that Dick got to steal his turn at yelling at Bruce. 

Ruffling Damian's hair as he passed him, avoiding the boy's katana aimed to stab him through the back into his stomach. For a brat who held a bedroom in his and Dick's apartment, he wasn't very affectionate towards his third father figure. 

Nodding towards Kate who had appeared in the room, half drunken bottle in hand as she listening to the weekends entertainment and was loving every moment. Clearly planning to bring up stories over Slade and Dick's days to mess with Bruce all weekend. 

"Bane's a rat?" Steph blurted out in shock, not believing the guy was a snitch to Batman. 

"But he's always such a good listener" Cass frowned as she lost some respect over the criminal. 

"How bad can Talia's and Dick's fights get if Batman was called in to the league of assassins?" Duke questioned with slight fear as he was wondering if he should find an mission outside of Gotham until the three days had passed for his own safety. 

"Trust me, you better off not learning the answer to that" Jason groaned back as he never wanted to experience another direct fight between Dick and Talia again. 

"I admire how powerful my mother stands to be but Baba would clearly win in a fight of death. He holds the skill to take a life but choices to stand as the better. I have seen Baba without a smile and it has left me with nightmares" Damian admitted out loud as he held believe his baba would win between him and his mother. 

"You'd think Talia would have taken Joker as a warning" Tim commented with a shrug as he knew Dick wasn't as bubbly and friendly as he normally acted to be. He's witnessed Dick murderous rage first hand. 

"Trust me, when Dick's with Talia while on the wrath path.. he's much worse" Jason sighed, shivering at the old memories that still haunt him. 

The others all fell back into doing their own things and enjoying their time as family and at the manor again. All lifting their gazes as Bruce sheepishly entered the room, clearly having called his ex and scolded her over the three days assassin attempts on his oldest, again. 

"Master Dick! Stop typing in the missile code to hit Miss Al Ghul. You strictly know that missile usage are band during family time after the last war with Miss Al Ghul" Alfred's stern and scolding voice filled the air from the study earning all the others to tense. 

"Sorry Alfred" Dick guiltily replied from Bruce's study. 

The rest of the room all glanced down to one another before Jason hurried to find his boyfriend and drag him back to enjoy the family weekend. Damian sighing and shaking his head as he pulled out his phone to scold his mother over starting a fight during a clearly planned Wayne family weekend. She knew not to disturb any of them during such weekends. 

"What did Talia do to a ten year old Dick to gain this much mortal enemy energy from him?" Duke cried out, feeling even more scared over Dick and Talia if their rival grew so long ago and hasn't been settled yet. 

"You surely knew how to pick your lovers back in the day" Kate laughed out as she glanced towards her ashamed cousin. 

"I really should have broken up with Talia the moment Dick placed a poison frog in her bra during an Galra. Or maybe when Dick woke up to a deadly poisonous snake in his school shoe and tried keeping it as a pet to spite Talia. Thankfully she took it back to the island as soon as Alfred showed his disapproval over the pet" Bruce mumbled back in a defeated tone, knowing he should have ended things much sooner with Talia all those years ago. 

"You just don't see red flags, do you?" Tim asked as he openly judged Batman right now. Starting to understand why Dick might have beef with Talia after all these years and many other criminals when Bruce clearly didn't notice red flags to a person.

"Master Dick has been trying to expose all of Master's Bruce's awful exs all his life" Alfred deadpanned as he's watched the oldest trying to deal with both Batman and Bruce's bad exs all his life. 

"Boy hasn't witness a stable relationship since his parents died. No wonder he fell in love with a brute like Jason" Cass commented as she silently judged her father from a distance. Dick's own love life starting to make more sense to her now. 

Extra: 

"How did replacement take the prank?" Jason asked as he checked their apartment front door for any boobytraps now the weekend was finished and they've returned to their home together. 

"He has no clue it was me" Dick grinned back smugly as he leaned against the wall, hoping the assassins were kind enough to clean up all their deadly traps for him once the three days had passed. 

"And yet people keep thinking I was the angry or rebel Robin between us. You're secretly evil" Jason huffed back as he knew he was an angel compared to Dick most days. 

"But you love me dearly" Dick brightly smiled as he fluttered his eyelashes towards his boyfriend. 

"I do love you dearly. You're my secretly evil hero" Jason sigh back like a lovesick puppy. 

"Next time I'm thinking of turning Conners ringtone into "Best Friend's Brother" ringtone on Tim's phone. I think Conner would laugh so much that he'd beg Tim to keep it" Dick smirked back as he leaned down, pressing a quick kiss to his boyfriend's lips before pushing their front door open. 

"I love you" Jason sappily replied as he stepped inside. 

The next hour was filled with Dick checking their apartment out while Jason happily laid on his new rug and gleefully enjoy the fact that it wasn't damaged at all and was still as perfect as when he last saw it.
