De-Anoning
Yeah, I'm admitting what I posted on the Young Justice Anonymous Meme.
I was browsing the meme a while back, and I discovered an interesting prompt. It was awesome in every single way (BATFAMILY!), but it was for a pairing I don't normally ship. KF/Rob.
I don't have anything against the ship, it's just I prefer my Spitfire. But the prompt was so awesome that I would have filled it, except I was busy with another prompt.
So I left a comment, and went away. A few weeks later, I'm browsing again, and I find that this prompt is still not filled.
Finals are done, so my fingers start itching toward the keyboard. And I let them, of course.
Here's the prompt:
Young Justice, Batsiblings, and the Gotham Academy
Say Gotham Academy is attacked and the students taken hostage by some large and powerful criminal organization. Dick (eldest), Jason, Tim, Stephanie, Cassandra and Damian (youngest) are at school. Dick is a freshman in high school, Tim’s in elementary school and Damian’s in preschool. Distribute the others through the elementary and middle schools as you like. Let’s assume the Academy has elementary, middle and high schools and a preschool on the same, giant, grounds.
Batman is on a villain-trying-to-end-the-world kind of JLA mission he can’t get away from, so YJ is deployed. They sneak in wearing Gotham Academy uniforms to do recon and assess the situation. Things don’t look good; there are too many men to handle all at once, and they’re very well-organized. If YJ attack, they risk civilian lives.
Wally is the only one who knows Robin’s secret ID, so he’s totally not freaking out. He hasn’t met the other Batsilbings yet.
The Batsibs gather (somehow) despite initially being in different buildings, and meet up with the YJ (somehow), along with Artemis (and Babs), who's in one of Dick’s classes and rendezvous with YJ+Batsibs with Dick in tow. The kids quickly figure out who the YJ are, baffling them. Since they’re pretending to be normal students for now, YJ can’t openly use their powers. So the kids pitch in and amaze YJ with their various non-superpowered skills and awesome teamwork, all except Dick, who’s forced to hold himself back for obvious secret-ID related reasons and just coordinates his siblings.
Of course, things go wrong, YJ is discovered, Dick Grayson recognized and (somehow) taken hostage to prevent the heroes attacking, and taken away (being Bruce Wayne’s eldest, Dick is probably the most famous kid around). He can’t do his ninja thing in civvies. His siblings are not happy their favorite brother is in trouble. They discreetly save the day, with help from the YJ.
Note: Robin and Wally have officially been together for a while now.
BONUS for:
- Batsibs attaching themselves to individual YJ members as described in the inspiration prompt (linked below). Tim wants to grow up to be just like Dick, and if he needs Wally (i.e. his own speedster) for it, then so be it.
- Batsibs becoming really interested in Wally when they realize who he is, and continuously testing him in weird ways (because their big brother can’t date someone who doesn’t pass their evaluation).
- Double bonus if the kids keep referring to Wally as Dick’s boyfriend, and that plus Wally’s general countenance around Dick leads the team to think Wally’s been cheating on Robin with Dick, and vice versa. Dick is a troll who happily goes with it, playing hurt and enraged boyfriend to Wally’s denials, because it’s amusing to watch speedsters squirm.
- Triple bonus if Wally and Dick keep accidentally falling into their usual best friends roles, surprising everyone with how in tune they are with each other. ‘Cause bromance plus romance rules.
- Babs is technically not a member of the Batfamily, but she is a Batgirl, and should therefore hang around. Amused!Babs flirting with Wally, flirting with Dick, and trolling on Dick while he trolls on his friends?
- A mostly useless and flabbergasted YJ, who start adoring the kids.
- Dick being an awesome big brother, and just plain awesome overall.
- Confused!Flustered!Sweet!Big brotherly!Boyfriendly!Wally.
- General panic attack at Dick having a gun to his head and a hand up his shirt (cue confused kids, appalled team, and furious Wally, and Dick is just way too pretty for his own good).
- Trolling Batsibs who finally decide Wally passes (barely. Damian is still adamant that Grayson is HIS; he doesn’t like sharing).
- General adorable kiddy fluff all around, ‘cause even Jason and Damian are sweet sometimes, especially when they get possessive/protective of family.
Artemis figures out Dick=Robin by the end. Whether the rest of the YJ realizes it or whether they continue thinking Wally is a cheating asshole is up to you (although I think everyone loves a BAMF Dick!Robin making the team go “O.o hello, Young Justice!”)
Make us laugh, anon. Make us gasp and hold our breaths. Give us cavities! Make the dentist’s bills worth it.

I've been having a blast with this fill. And there's so much more to go.
