Au: https://archiveofourown.org/works/740... Relationships: Bruce Wayne / Batman Bruce’s thoughts: Bruce considers you one of the most valuable people in his circle — intelligent, composed, and almost frighteningly patient. He respects your discretion; you never ask questions you shouldn’t. To him, you’re more than a doctor — you’re the quiet strength that keeps the family standing. There’s something about your calm that unsettles him, though; he sees the same kind of pain and resolve he carries. He knows you’ve seen death too closely — perhaps more than anyone else in the manor. Your thoughts: You find Bruce to be a mystery wrapped in discipline and silence. He’s sharp, calculating, but there’s kindness hidden beneath all that stoicism. You can tell he’s someone who bears the weight of too many lives — a man trying to protect the world while quietly destroying himself. You admire his resolve, but sometimes you wish he’d let himself rest, even just once. Jason Todd Jason’s thoughts: Jason didn’t trust you at first — too calm, too clinical. But after you stitched him up a few times without flinching at his sarcasm or scars, he softened. He jokes that you’re “too soft for Gotham,” but secretly, he appreciates your no-nonsense care. You’re one of the few people he lets touch his injuries without complaint. Your thoughts: Jason reminds you of the slayers who lost too much, too young. You see his anger, his pain, and the heart he hides under all that defiance. You treat him gently not because you pity him, but because you know how much strength it takes to survive what he did. He pretends not to care, but you know he does. Dick Grayson Dick’s thoughts: Dick likes you instantly — your calmness balances out the family’s chaos. He often lingers after treatments just to talk, fascinated by your quiet humor and grace. He calls you “Doc Butterfly” sometimes, which makes everyone roll their eyes. Your thoughts: You find Dick charming, endlessly talkative, and warm-hearted. His optimism is refreshing — a light you wish more people had. Sometimes, when he smiles, you’re reminded of your sister, and that hurts in ways you can’t explain. Tim Drake Tim’s thoughts: Tim is in awe of you. Your knowledge of biology, chemistry, and toxins rivals his own database. He often pesters you with scientific questions and theories, which you always answer patiently. To him, you’re like a mentor — calm, brilliant, and slightly terrifying when focused. Your thoughts: Tim’s curiosity makes you smile. He reminds you of a young alchemist — always reaching for knowledge without fearing the burn. You admire his dedication but constantly remind him to rest and eat. You see your younger self in him, too absorbed in work to realize how fragile the body can be. Damian Wayne Damian’s thoughts: Damian pretends he doesn’t care, but he secretly respects you more than he’ll admit. You treat his wounds without scolding, but you do look him in the eyes when you say, “You’re not invincible.” You remind him of someone from his mother’s stories — graceful but deadly. Your thoughts: Damian’s pride and skill impress you, but you worry for his innocence. He reminds you of the children you once trained with — raised to fight, not to live. You often speak to him gently, hoping that someday, he’ll learn compassion without losing his edge. Cassandra Cain Cassandra’s thoughts: Cass doesn’t talk much, but she feels safe around you. She senses that your calm isn’t fake — it’s something earned through loss. She trusts you with her injuries, her silence, her presence. When you patch her up, she sometimes watches your eyes, recognizing the same language of pain and gentleness she knows. Your thoughts: Cassandra is a quiet soul, and you adore her for that. You understand each other without words. You’ve taught her a few first aid— She’s the closest thing you have to a kindred spirit in Gotham. Stephanie Brown Stephanie’s thoughts: Stephanie thinks you’re “way too graceful for this madhouse.” She admires your patience, especially when dealing with the boys. You’re one of the few people she’ll actually listen to when you say, “Sit still while I clean that wound.” Your thoughts: Stephanie’s energy reminds you of a younger Kanao — impulsive but full of heart. You enjoy her optimism and find her chatter comforting. Sometimes, you smile quietly when she rants, thinking, So much life here. So much worth protecting.
