He's suffered as much as any of them, I think.

Thanks!

Aww, poor Alfred.

He's been through a lot.

Thanks!

*sniffles* Oh, Alfred. ♥

Thanks!

I just want to give him a giant hug! And Alfred, don't forget how they would all be dead/insane/completely hopelessly lost without you. Seriously, he is the glue :) <3 Alfred.

He needs lots of hugs. And he's so much a workaholic and perfectionist that anything less than a happy household is sub-par to him.

Thanks!!

Oh man, I love the tone of this. So... melancholic. Poor Alfred has suffered each of his boys' falls and stood by them, and he's so proud of them.. but the fate isn't very kind to the Bats, is it?

In fact, there hasn't been true happiness in this house since Master Richard was young, Robin and a Titan, the light in Master Bruce's life, and his as well.

That's terrifyingly true and sad. I loved this!

Thank you so much! Poor Alfred gets to suffer all their tragedies.
