Barbara was sitting at the Batcomputer, typing away when Dick walked in.
"Hiya, Barbie"
She spun round in her chair to look at Dick like he had three heads.
"I'm sorry.. What did you just call me?"
"Barbie?"
"Don't tell me you were hanging out with Jason-"
"Wait- Jason calls you Barbie?!"
She nods and he frowns. Damn Jason taking all the good nicknames.
She sighs. Sometimes Dick was a big child.
"What're you doing, Dick?"
"I wanna make up nicknames"
"I already have a nickname. Babs. remember?"
"But I want one I can call you personally"
She just rolls her eyes and goes back to work.
"How about Gordon?"
"Damian"
"Damnit!"
"B"
"Steph"
"Uggh!"
"Babby"
"You're not an English chav, Dick"
"I give up!"
He pouts.
"Thank God"

"Sup, T-mistier?"
Tim looks up from his book with a weird look on his face.
"Dick, did you hit your head?"
"Nope"
Dick sat down beside him.
"Please. Never call me that again"
"Fine... Tim the terminator"
"That either"
"Awe... Timbuktu"
Tim face palmed.
"I think I'll go with Timmy"
Dick walked off and Tim got his phone out to warn the others.

"Jaydoe!"
Jason looks at Dick like he just insulted him.
"The f*** did you call me?!"
Dick puts his hands up in surrender.
"Relax. It's only a nickname"
Jason snorts.
"What the hell kind of nickname is that?"
"Um.. What about -J-dog?"
"Whatever you're smoking, I want some"
"Jaybird!"
Dick beamed as he realised he created the perfect nickname.

Damian was stroking his cat when Dick found him and he rolled his eyes.
"Drake told me about your psychotic hunt to give people nicknames, Grayson and I will warn you now that I am in no mood for your childish games"
Dick just smiled wider as he ruffled Damian's hair.
"You're cute Dami-dog"
Damian grunts in annoyance.
"Or should I call you Dami-bat?"
"You can call me by my birth name, Damian Wayne"
"Ok, calm down, little D"
Dick's face turns to one of utter glory.
"I'm big D and you're little D.. It's perfect"
"I hope you fall down a well, Grayson"
