Summary
Even the strongest of men break and crumble. Bruce has cracked and faltered many times, all because of his children. His children who he loves so dearly, who seem to be the single reason for his gray hairs and the stubborn wrinkles budding on his face that he refuses to fix just yet (he’s still a young-ish man after all); his children who are all so brave and so strong despite everything life has thrown at them; his children who he’ll never quite understand. Yes, he’s cracked and faltered for his children, his family, but never has he broken down.
That is, until he had to bury an empty coffin in place of his son.
OR:
Jason Todd was captured and tortured by the Joker for months, before he was finally killed and it completely tore everyone apart. Bruce and the rest of the batfamily would very much like to grieve his loss, but it seems that rumours of Jason's death were greatly exaggerated.OR OR:
Arkham Knight canon divergence where Jason gets rescued and goes through the recovery arc he and the family deserved :D
