The life of Batsis

The Tea-37

"So how's it going with Kori?" I asked Dick as I took a sip of my tea.

"It not perfect, but then again no relationship ever is. But we got everything sorted out so all we need to do now is move the rest of the stuff" If you couldn't tell Dick and Kori were moving in together, well they are. It had apparently been decided while they were out on a mission with the Titans (as they wanted to be called now). A weird place to make such a decision but hey who am I to judge.

As for the vision I got a while ago, well I had to convince Alfred not to tell dad and the others, it took a few hours but I eventually got him to promise not to say anything, I did, however, end up promising him that I would tell the others soon or he suddenly would. The vision did disturb me deeply though, yet another reason the others had been worried about me, they didn't say anything about it but I knew they were curious about what had happened to make me in such a depressed and offbeat mood. I had eventually called in Kat, Marco, and Laura to tell them and get some backup support, Alfred was great but I needed a bit more support this time. They also ended up pressuring me to tell dad and the others but gave up when I told them my promise to Alfred. But even with this new peace of mind it still didn't stop the boys from worrying which is why I am where I am now with Dick who had gotten worried and thought that he could get my mind off whatever was bothering me by taking me out on the town. So here we are in the Coffee Bean on a nice and sunny Thursday afternoon.

"How is Dami settling in, in school?"

Right, Damian's first day in Gotham Private Academy was a few days ago, go knows how much he protested about it. When he first got to the manor dad got to see if he needed schooling, but it came back that he was far about his age group, well, when it came to the academic side of things, the social side was far below average. I convinced dad to wait with the schooling till after Damian had settled down some more, and well with him joining the Titans it became clear that he was ready for some more challenge socially. And that's how he ended up in Gotham Academy, it did take some convincing and some bribing but eventually, he did agree, and as a result, he now has a pet cat he named Alfred which I got him from the shelter. He did end up not going into the unknown alone though, dad had given a scholarship to Colin Wilkes(AN: Colin Wilkes aka Abuse. Damian's best friend. Search it up on google for some more info on him. You can also just continue reading without it) and he also got some helpful advice from Jonathan Kent(Superman and Lois Lane's son)so he did have some backup.

"He's settling in nicely, well as nicely as he can" I replied with a little smile, remembering the phone call the manor got.

"...What did he do?" Dick asked with a raised brow. I shook my head setting the cup back down.

"It wasn't anything bad so to say. Colin apparently had a run-in with a bully at the school-"

"Let me guess Dami "took care" of the bully" He interrupted, I just chuckled confirming his guess.

"The manor got a phone call that Damian had broken a boy named Teague Hawthorne's nose. Since dad was busy I had to go pick him up and have a talk with the principle" I explained shaking my head with a small smile on my lips.

"Well, I mean at least he didn't get kicked out... he didn't get kicked outright?"

"No no, I was just told that either me or dad would have to give him a "stern" talking too. But we both know that wouldn't have helped, I just gave him some more... sneaky ways to deal with bullies without getting in trouble for it" I said taking another sip of my tea before continuing "In my opinion though, Dami should have hit him harder. After what he said to get Damian railed up I'd say it's more than well deserved"

"Damn, it must have been something really bad for you to wish for a 12-year-old kid to have gotten more hurt"

"Hey I'm not an angel you know, everyone has a bad side. Mine just shows less" Dick just chuckled at that, although we both know what I said was the truth.
