Dick was turning 26 today, and he didn't even realise. He never really cared for his own birthday, even forgetting what day it was on. So when his family realised they were... shocked? I mean, he never forgets anyone's birthday except his they supposed.
How did they realise he'd forgotten? Well, Jason was the first to see him as they all agreed to be at the manor for his birthday but to try to make it not suspicious so they could pull off their surprise for him.
"Yo Dickface?"
"Not my name, but whats up little wing?"
Dick replied not fully amused.
"Not much, just wondering whats the date today?"
"Ummm, the 20th of March. Why?"
"No real reason just also wondering if theres something special today you know is it a key date?"
Jason pushed waiting for his brother to get the hint.
"No i dont think so...no i cant think of anything."
Divk said shrugging.
Jason, confused and concerned nodded and said goodbye rushing to find his other siblings.

"BITCHES AND BASTARDS LISTEN UP!!"
"What is it Jason?"
Tim replied not looking up from his phone as he sipped his coffee.
"Dick doesnt know today is his birthday, hes fully clueless."
This peaks everyone's attention.
"Wait, really? But he knows all of our birthdays, even mine and i never told him."
Cass states.
"Thats strange...Richard is normally excited for birthdays, so why not his own?"
Damien thinks aloud as the rest also think.
"Well, thats what we'll have to find out! Without spoiling the surprise."
Steph announces.
They all agree, and each drop in hints to Dick throughout the day.

"Hey dick, anything special about today?"
Duke asks, appearing next to him.
"Not that im aware of."
Dick says, "Not buying that this isn't set up.

"Richard, is there something important linked to today's date?"
Damien queries.
"No, i dont think so Dami, why?"
"Just...curious."

"Dick! What's todays date?"
"Hey, Stephy, it's March 20th,"
"...ok thank you!!"

This occurred between all of the batsiblings. All of them tried it. They even had Alfred try, and he still didn't recognize that it's his birthday.

"Master Dick, your siblings request you head down to the Library."
Alfred mentions in passing as he heads off somewhere else.
"Thanks, Alf!"
Dick yells after him as he heads to the library and just as he walks into the dark, seemingly empty room he says,
"Hey guys, why have you been acting weird youre acting as though ive missed someones birthday-"
"SURPRISE!!"
They all yell, laughing at their brothers confused face.
"Happy Birthday, Dickwad."
Jason says hitting his shoulder.
"Damn, i guess i really forgot my own birthday...huh thats not the first."
"You, often forget?"
Tim asks.
"Yeah, its not really an important day so why remember it is what i used to think so now i just...don't."
He shrugs. They all decide not to push and to just enjoy the night while it's still young. They can talk about this later.
