Honestly, he isn't wrong. Of the lot, only Dick is a maybe.

Jason was already ballsy enough to steal the Batmobile's tires, he would have gotten involved in crimes sooner or later and as Robin he did so as a good guy instead of a criminal.
Tim proactively tracked Batman down and wasn't taking no as an answer.
And Damian...well, either Bruce trained him or Ra's al Ghul would. That was no choice at all, really.

And then, of course, there's the fact that if Dick hadn't been picked up by Bruce, the Court Of Owls would have, turning him into one of their brainwashed assassins.

So basically SI Bruce Wayne will have to take in Dick Grayson anyway. Understandable though. As for the other Robins - Jason and Tim, they're quite ballsy lol.

Damian, I prefer if SI Bruce Wayne stay away from Talia and the boy doesn't exist.

If I'm not wrong then there is a one shot comic where the the phantom stranger shows Bruce a world where his parents never died, and Dick ends up murdering Tony Zucco and is put on death row. So yeah…

Also here is a question, what is the SI's and Talia's relationship gonna be like. Because I'm pretty sure Ra's will still be interested in him.

Does the MC use his main advantage - the megacorp? Also does he kill the likes of Joker? Maybe help some villains like Ivy and Freeze before they get too bad, and employ them?

This is not a chapter, sorry. Next chapter is about 60% and moving slowly.

Sorry and thanks to everyone in my patreon who's put up with no chapters for the past months. I'm writing, but it's very slow.

And last month, actually, shit, two months ago, when I was actually making real progress... Boom. Another one. Officially a ministroke for now, but there's some indication that it was a real stroke, just like the two I had a year ago. Almost exactly a year ago, actually. Weird. Again, they think a drop in blood pressure caused my blood vessels to slam shut for a while.

Fucked me up good. In some ways, not as bad as last time. In some ways, worse. Less permanent true damage, but this time it hit my cognition and memory, not my sensory and motor. Couldn't think straight, forgot some words. I haven't played videogames, I haven't written, I haven't talked to my closest friends online more than about a dozen times since this happened.

So I've given up. I've filed for disability. Docs say I'll probably get it... eventually. Arkansas generally denies the first attempt every time.

Meanwhile, I got hit with a surprise big bill from a specialist that medicare denied. I hate to ask.... But I'm desperate. If you have any spare cash, considering that we're all hurting, I would appreciate the help. Ashamed to ask, gotta.

For ease of use, and avoiding Patreon's enshittification, Ko-fi is probably the best platform to use.

In addition to my patreon already being basically a charity at this point, I need one time support. There's nothing new on patreon, new meaning posted in the last half year or so, but there's stuff on there that hasn't been publicly posted. And some of it was bits, story starts and the like. I've posted the best two to my bits and pieces thread, starting here. Nugar's bits and pieces

But if you do prefer to support me with a little bit over a longer term, patreon is still available.

Thanks for everything, hope you check out bits and pieces.

Mentally, I am actually doing better. Therapy works, amazingly enough. I just gotta get disability going, and put out some damned chapters of stuff.
