Bat's giving Robin the "One Day I'll be gone, and you'll have to take over as Batman." talk...
Batman is injured and Robin was being a bit too careless, so Bruce has to talk to Dick about not only taking responsibility for his actions, but making responsible actions.
Bonus for super serious almost to the point of tears Dick pleading with Bruce not to talk about this.
you get a gold star for adding this line.
"What do you mean die?!? Aren't you like, immortal or something?"

Blood.
Blood.
Batman's blood.
Bruce's blood.
It was seeping past the Boy Wonder's fingers, painting his pale flesh (Dick took off his gloves minutes ago) with a crimson hue. The thirteen year old had his hand pressed against his mentor's side, putting pressure on the wound and using the gloves he removed as some sort of soaking device.
"You're fine." Dick managed for about the seventh time. He was disgusted by the sound of his voice. Weak, shaky, scared. But could you blame him? The Dark Knight was practically dying in his arms ( ... )

"Let me finish." The Dark Knight growled, that authority tone even in his tired voice. Enough to make Dick shut up, anyway.
"I will die. Maybe not today, tomorrow, or even years from now. But, eventually, I will. And-" He took a deep breath, wincing at the act. "-When I do it'll be your job to take out." Dick's eyes widened.
"But, me? Batman? I can't-"
"You can." Batman sighed. "The time will come and when it does I know you'll be ready. You're a smart kid, Dick. No one else could be better."
"But-"
"Gotham will need a protector." Bruce interrupted, ending his son one of his scary stares. "I like to believe that, one day, it wont but I doubt that will be in either of our life times." He took another breath and winced again. Dick flinched. "No one will be better than you."
"I-"
"It's why I chose you." Batman murmured, his eyes falling shut again, his voice getting softer. "Why I allowed you to be Robin, to be my partner." Dick's heart slammed into his chest. "There's no one better." Bruce's voice became even softer ( ... )

Dick Grayson stared at himself in the full-length mirror, his blue eyes scanning over his appearance skeptically.
He looked ridiculous.
Dick wasn't made for the Batman suit. It was too bulky. Too big. Too Bruce. And the cape? Dick's got comfortable to fighting without a cape thanks to his Nightwing costume. Now he had to get readjusted to the thing which means he would be slower ( ... )

AWWWWWWWWWW. /killed
That was so beautiful. *snuffles* Especially the 15 Years Later part, that made me sob.
He definitely wasn't Bruce Wayne.
But he'd do his damnedest to be Batman.
