senescence
Alfred, in his lifetime, has seen many kinds of people.
But if he were asked to choose, to choose this life for another one, he'd rather not.
He's picked up after Bruce as a child, and picked him up when he'd stumbled down after the Wayne family's dismal turn of events. From then on, he focused on Bruce's growth into adulthood, and into the person that he is today. Though the young sir may have made some decisions Alfred had rather Bruce thought about, he was still glad master Bruce was never one to regret the choices he made.
And one of them was bringing Richard Grayson home.
It started with one boy, then another one, and another boy, now a girl is thrown into the mix, then another boy, -this time his own- and another couple of adolescents are added into their dysfunctional found family. Though, it consequentially did add more work onto Alfred's shoulders, and more responsibility in his hands, since master Bruce wasn't the best father in the world, -but he tries his best, and that's what matters- so he not only has seen Bruce grow up and grow old, but also his children's senescence.
Some have started off on the wrong foot, but nowadays, Alfred finds them sharing a tub of ice cream between themselves, or some may had been in a rough patch with the family back then, but now was helping him ladle soup into their bowls.
He really would not have wanted his family any other way.
(Unless if their other versions were more tidy and always remembered to separate their whites from the coloured clothing, then maybe he would.)
