Don't forget her mother left her in the middle of the night, and her brother is basically the Moriarty to her Sherlock Holmes and wants to either kill her or drive her insane

Babs doesn't just know how to hide a body, she knows how to rig several of them unto a marionette show to fake a slumber party. That's not a normal thing, even by Gotham standards. I mean hiding one body sure, but that's a whole other level.

Just gonna say it but this particular rendition of Babs is literally one plot point away from having a villain origin story. Her greatest hero dismissed her and the one she felt took her place has mocked her ruthlessly for years. She had almost no friends and the one she did have is a villain who is ride or die for her but questionable in her methods. Her family is well-meaning and sweet but distant bc of their jobs and just general misunderstanding of her and her interests. Also no biggie but she is 100% down to hide bodies and manipulate them to look alive.

Like if Babs didn’t move to Metropolis and find heroes who support and love her she’d DEFINITELY be blowing shit up in a coupla years.

So Batman first came out in 1939 in The Detective Comics (DC). Jim Gordon has been working with him just as long. Robin was introduced the following year.

Gotham exists within a weird time dilation due to the Clock King. It explains the meshing of different decades and their technologies throughout Gotham. It explains the weird time skips.

The reason people don't really go to Gotham is the overwhelming feeling of wrongness. (Gothamites have a hard time leaving for the same reason, trying to correct the time differences makes most of them feel ill). Batman's no-metas-in-Gotham rule isn't due to his hatred of metas (his best friend is a meta and so is one of his kids), it's because he had no idea if their powers will try to correct the time dilation (that would cause a doozy of issues in infrastructure and frankly more issues than it's worth)

Batman has been Batman-ing since 1939 but due to time shenanigans he is still about the same age.

Barbara, trying to tell her dad that she's Batgirl: I took on a . . . job recently and-

Jim, who totally thinks she's a drug dealer but wants to be a Supportive Dad™: You can't tell me more but know I love you!

Barbara, happy that her dad approves of Batgirl, and Jim, happy his daughter trusts him: ^_^

One of them time traveling situations where all the bat boys (Bruce, Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian) become 12 .

The Justice League knows that explaining stuff to the Robins will be easy but they're nervous about Bruce's reaction.

Clark: -and that's what's happening. Any questions?

12 year old Bruce: Yes! It works!

Everyone, including his Robins, are confused as Bruce explains that he has been going out in home-made tact gear for the last two years and just fucking shit up. He regularly beats up grown men by just dropping onto their heads, he hangs out with Detective Gordon to solve murders (and get free juice boxes), and he randomly plants money to help Gotham's poor.

Bruce is just excited to know that he's become even COOLER in the future and now he has a family ^_^

(Everyone else is now understanding why he didn't think it was weird to have Robin side kicks.)

When Batman is a good little cryptid and solves a murder, he gets a pat on the head and a cookie from Commissioner Gordon 😌

It’s Cassandra Cain’s in-universe Birthday! Here’s a bit from her debut storyline, from Batman #567 (July 1999), where during the No Man’s Land event she was working as a courier for Barbara Gordon, until she recognised her long lost assassin dad on the prowl in the ruined city (his having been hired by Two-Face to kill Commissioner Gordon for “betraying” him earlier in the main story).

Later, the non-verbal Cass indictates via diagrams that it’s David Cain that’s after Jim, and that David’s her dad. Jim isn’t happy that Cass had to step in to save him though, and puts out the word to hunt down David due to his having murdered multiple cops escaping his earlier failed assassination attempt..

Someone actually made a fic based on this @dehydratedmockingbird

Tho you can only access it if you have an ao3 account

Batman getting a case file from Jim Gordon of a John Doe found dead after a mass shooting. When Batman asked if Gordon just needed help finding out who the body was Jim’s like “no, the John Doe is Daniel James Fenton. But the thing is that this is the fifth body of his we found.”

The chaos that would cause!!!!

But like what if the BatFam try to rope Phantom into it and he just awkwardly having to explain that it’s HIS dead bodies they keep finding cuz he keeps accidentally getting shot in crossfire of gang violence cuz he lives on the streets.

“Welcome to BatBurger. Home of the BatBurger. How may I take your order?”

“With a smile of course!” The Joker cackled as he pulled out a canister and threw it at the cashier.

“Nuh-uh.” The cashier deadpans before throwing the canister back.

“The fuck you mean ‘Nuh-uh’?” Joker yelled throwing the canister back.

“Don’t wanna.” The cashier replied while smacking the canister out of the air and directly into the Joker's hand.

“Why you little!” The Joker threw the canister on the ground and lunged at the cashier.

“And what happened after that?” Commissioner Gorden asked the young man in front of him.

“He tripped.” The young man said with a shrug.

“Uh-huh.” Gorden hummed as he looked over where the body bag was being pulled out of the restaurant. “And the holes?”

“I guess the canister finally went off. It's such a shame really. I didn’t even get to deliver a decent punchline.”

“Right… And what was your name again?”

“Oh, it’s Danny. Danny Fenton. But you won’t be able to find me if you look me up.” The young man, Danny, said with a shit-eating grin.

“You know you’re not supposed to admit to going by a fake identity right?” Gordan asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Ya, but it is my real name. You just won’t be able to find it.” Danny said as he shifted his gaze to the shadowed figgier in the nearby alleyway. “Not even you, Big Bat. But you're free to try.”

“Hn.” Batman grunted before stepping back further into the shadows and disappearing.

“Why do I feel like you are about to be… and he’s gone. Why do I even bother?” Gordan sighed as he looked away from where the Bat vanished and back to where Danny was supposed to be. He grumbled as he put his notebook away and started for his car. His car, that now had a little green sticky note on it.
