Summary
When Dick Grayson accidentally portals into the past, he finds himself on the Justice League’s Watchtower surrounded by younger versions of the original members of the Justice League...including Batman.
But none of them have any idea who Nightwing (or even Robin) is.
What a perfect opportunity to create a little chaos...while also trying not to break the timestream.

Summary
"He’s drifting and lost at sea, not even worried about making it to shore. A storm is brewing on the horizon, but he can’t find it within himself to care.
Rather, he wishes the dark waves of the ocean would just pull him under already."

Or; Dick struggles to put himself back together again after he gets back from Spyral. Thankfully, his family eventually gets the hint :)

Summary
"This is my side of town, ya know?"
Dick squinted. “Jason?” His voice came out cautious, like he didn’t quite trust it. “You’re… older.”
He sighed. “Alright, I guess.”
Jason tilted his head. “That’s it? You don’t care that I’m here?”
Dick shrugged, still watching the alley below. “Well, I’m kind of on the job, so it isn’t the best time to break down.”
Jason blinked.“Can we like… delay this?” Dick added, his voice dry. “Show up in my kitchen while I’m eating cheese out of my opened fridge?”
Or Dick thinks he's hallucinating a very real Jason and invites the "hallucination" home. Jason thinks his brother is being freakishly calm, but hey, he's being accepted as he is so he doesn't care.

Summary
When Tim Drake was 17, he faked his own death.
Three years later, a new guy has entered Gotham, with hacking skills that outmatch Oracle’s, a blade sharp enough to cut through bone, and a penchant for disappearing better than the Batman himself.
And he’s making a mark on the villain population of Gotham.
He leaves no evidence behind, nothing to mark himself by, only the remnants of his kill and a name: Cardinal- Language:

Summary
It's still the same primitive idea; it's still a countdown for when he is of legal age. It's still a bunch of numbers going down by days, hours, minutes, seconds.
It goes from 30 days, 1 hour, 8 minutes, 50 seconds. It doesn't stop, the screen ticks down, a trainwreck he can't help but watch.
He blinks.
There are 29 days left.
Tim’s heart feels caved in.

Summary
Tim Drake is good at surviving.
He knows how to keep his head down, how to read a room, how to make himself useful enough to be tolerated. Between school, a café job, and a home that never quite feels like one, Tim doesn’t expect much more than that.
Babysitting Damian Wayne was supposed to be simple. Temporary. A paycheck.
Instead, Tim finds himself pulled into a family that notices too much, bruises that linger, smiles that don’t reach his eyes, silences that say more than words ever could.
The Batfamily sees one of their own.
And Tim?
Tim is learning what it feels like when someone stays.- Language:

Grin and Bear It (I got blood on your carpet) by Alia_JuneBug
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics), DC Extended Universe, Batman (Comics)
04 Dec 2023

Summary
When Jack Drake’s business trip gets canceled, he is forced to stay at home while the legal kinks get worked out. He’s not used to having a teenager underfoot, so it’s only rational that he’s a little snappish around Tim. At least, that’s what Tim tells himself each time his dad’s idea of discipline gets harsher.
Bruce had told him to take a break from Robin in order to spend some time at home with his dad, and Tim can’t say no to that. He knows Bruce is probably glad to be rid of him for a short while.
And he can handle discipline. This is a Tim Drake problem, not a Robin problem anyway. There’s no need for Bruce to know anything.
Things get a little muddled when an injured Jason Todd crawls through his bedroom window.

The officer pulls out a picture that she turns toward Peter. It’s a little boy around four years old, with curly brown hair. “That’s you,” she says.

“Lady, I don’t remember jack shit,” Peter says. “I was like four. No one remembers shit from when they were four.”

Summary
Dick couldn’t feel anything under his feet as he began kicking around. He was being suspended from something above him, but his arms were by his sides, not even tied up. Gotham’s criminals were getting dumber everyday, Dick chuckled to himself. His arms made their way above his head until a sharp pain shot down his right arm. Instinctively, he grabbed his shoulder to find there was a thick metal hook sticking out of it.

Summary
“Jay,” Dick’s voice said, filtering through the phone. There was a long moment of silence, broken only by stifled sobs. “I’m sorry, I-... I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” Dick’s voice broke. “I would have come to your funeral if Bruce told me you were dead. I would have come to your rescue too, I would have-”
or
Dick coped with Jason's death by leaving a trail of voice messages on his phone. Jason comes back from his death to find his phone intact and working. He listens.

When Sparks Fly (and Drake-Wayne's do not) by alchemistsarego
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
16 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
There were hundreds if not a thousand other travellers that had been put out, it was not like Bruce and Tim alone were a little uncomfortable.
Then again, those unrelenting lights alone might very well be enough to trigger a seizure, especially when exhaustion and stress that was normal when traveling factored into everything.
It had been on Tim’s insistence that they’d traveled like this to begin with, rightfully pointing out that it had been a long time since Bruce Wayne had been seen traveling for work or for pleasure. They could have instead chartered a private plane or simply used the Batplane to get to California for the conference but as it was, they were now stuck here.
Tim made a small sound and Bruce shifted a little, keeping Tim steady.
When Tim’s head dipped a little, Bruce gently readjusted him but it soon dropped down again.
“I’m right here, Lad,” Bruce mumbled.
If Tim could still hear him, he gave no sign, but Bruce spoke to his son all the same. It was always possible that Tim was either partially or fully aware of his surroundings, especially in his smaller medical episodes like this one.
