Notes: This is a part of mine and suruberry's headcanon verse that we've created. Continuity-wise, it's a mishmash of comics, cartoons, and movies. We've basically gone about cherry-picking what we like and leaving out a lot that we don't, so things are probably not gonna line up right with any one singular canon verse since there's bits from a lot of different places. Hopefully, someone else enjoys this just as much as we have.

baby, please come home
Bruce has not really decorated a tree since he was very young, before his parents died. After that, Alfred continued the tradition, more for the benefit of the boys than anything. Usually, it was the kids would decorate the tree, but all of them have found their own families and it’s just Bruce and his new family at the manor this year.
He’s a little surprised that Tony throws himself into it so much. Damian insists that the most important job must be done by him, which is obviously why Tony is picking him up so that he can put the star on the top of the tree.
It’s a very impressive tree, Bruce has to admit. Tony’s designed the lights and even the star that goes on top, all of which light up with a bright, yet soft glow that throws multicoloured lights on the walls of the living room.
There’s a spread of ornaments on the table, each one carefully arranged and sorted according to the pattern that Damian has settled upon – with some input from Tony.
Bruce, on the other hand, is content to sit back in an arm chair and watch them. He can’t quite put his finger on the feeling that’s swelling up inside him, but he thinks it might be contentment. It’s been a very long time since he’s felt it.
Right now, he’s more content to simply watch Tony and Damian decorate the tree than examine in minute detail his present emotional state. Besides, it’s much more entertaining to watch Damian boss Tony around and have Tony actually listen to him. It’s apparently made much easier by the fact that Tony actually agrees with Damian’s plan and is helping him execute it.
The two of them manage extremely well despite their slight disadvantage in terms of not being able to reach the top of the tree. It’s quite the team effort that they’ve got going on, and it makes Bruce’s heart swell to see his family coming together like this.
Tony looks much younger now than he did when they first started their relationship. The lines have faded somewhat and he looks so much more at ease – happier – than Bruce can ever really recall seeing him. It makes Bruce smile, but also leaves him wanting to sweep Tony up and kiss him senseless.
He tucks that thought away for later. Right now, he’s happy to bask in this newfound feeling of contentment.
FIN.
