    Summary

    Jason’s jaw dropped. The tiny human child toddled in front of him, gripping at his pant legs. Automatically, he bent his knees slightly. The child lost its grip, and fell flat onto its ass.
    They both froze. The child’s mouth opened and closed soundlessly.
    “No no no, don’t cry,” Jason rushed out. He leaned down and scooped the child into his arms. “Don’t cry, okay?”
    The child grabbed onto his shoulder as Jason settled it (him?) onto his upper hip. Big, blue eyes blinked up at him, shining with unshed tears.
    When the fuck did B have the time to adopt a new kid?

     

    everything is totally normal at the wayne manor. yup. totally normal, with nothing to see here.

    Summary

    It’s the first time anyone in the family has seen Drake in months, as far as Damian knows. He’s not sure what he was expecting when Drake showed his face again, but it wasn’t this: toothbrush hanging out of his mouth, wearing a too-large hoodie, rooting through the fridge at two in the morning in the Kents’ farmhouse. He looks like a mess. He looks more relaxed than Damian’s ever seen him.

     

    (Tim drops off the face of the earth, leaving a Drake-sized hole in the family. Damian’s the last person anyone would have expected to fix it.)

    Summary

    Bruce is poisoned at yet another gala and he calls for the only person he can trust enough to get him to safety, secret identities be damned. So why is he being taken away by some stranger and where is Superman?

    --
    Bruce frowns and tries to focus his swimming vision. Something isn’t right. This isn’t the bright blue and red he’s been mentally preparing for. The material is all wrong and it feels scratchy brushing against his skin. Superman’s suit isn’t scratchy. It’s smooth and comforting to touch; whatever he’s touching isn’t. This isn’t Superman, this is that stranger and his weird suit. It’s- it is-
    “So ugly,” Bruce mumbles at the offending greyish brown fabric he’s got his cheek pressed against.

    Summary

    Alfred stares at him. It’s in the same way he does when Bruce has not taken off the suit in three days. Bruce doesn’t think this is at all warranting that level of judgement or concern.

    “Oh?” Alfred says, after a good ten seconds. “May I enquire why, sir?”

    “B’s being a petty bitch,” Dick informs him, appearing behind Bruce’s legs.

    “Language,” Bruce says on instinct. “There’s a baking sale. And Dick’s stall will win.”

    “I did not realise bake sales were a competitive sport,” Alfred says.

    “Tell that to Candace Pearson-Scott,” Bruce says.

    or:

    as a wise man once said, if you don't think Bruce Wayne's greatest nemesis isn't the Joker, but the fakest housewife in the Batkids PTA chapter, I don't know what to tell you.

    Summary

    Jason is both annoyed and weirdly flattered when the replacement turns up to ask him for help. He mentally rearranges his calendar so he can be free Wednesday evening and says, “No, fuck off, I have very important business going on.”
    Tim eyes his 72” TV playing Japanese wrestling more judgmentally than it really deserves.

    “Important crime things,” Jason emphasizes. “Make Wingdick do it.”

    Jason doesn't think much of it when Tim needs his help, or Damian moves in, or even when Dick turns up looking beat all to hell. But at some point he realizes that he might be the best option his brothers have to recover from the cycle of violence that Batman has set up, and all he can think is that things were much easier when he was the villain.
