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.- Language:

Summary
Corybantic: frenzied; agitated; unrestrained
"It was something instinctual, not quite training and not quite protocol, that pushed him in the direct path of the multitude of darts destined for his little brother."
Tim Drake, Red Robin, is a null. In a world full of alphas, betas, and omegas, he was the worst-case scenario.
------
During a reconnaissance mission, Tim Drake is hit with a new heat-inducer that has been plaguing the streets of Gotham. It does not affect him the way he expects.

Summary
Tim squints back at the phone screen, checking the caller ID one more time, to ensure that it was actually Damian on the phone.
“I feel weird,” he blurts it out like it’s been weighing on him for years.
Then it all clicks.
“It’s a school night, are you fucking drunk right now?”
That’s why he didn’t call Bruce or Dick.
“Uhm...”
OR
Tim's trying to study. Damian's trying to get a ride home from a high school party.

Summary
“Are you an organ thief?”
Robin made a choking sound.
“An organ thief?” Batman repeated, and now he sounded a little amused.
Tim nodded once, which was a mistake, because the pier rolled unnaturally under his feet.
“Important screening question,” he said.
OR:
Tim is high on pain meds, but is he going to let that stop him from saving Batman and Robin? Of course not.

Summary
Jason planted one foot, grabbed the handle to steady himself, and kicked hard just above the lock.

It wasn’t a room.
It was a cupboard.
And there, crammed into the back corner beneath a row of hanging coats, was a kid.

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.

Summary
“We’re not like Tim or Damian,” Jason said quietly. “Our parents didn’t have a last name that meant money or power. Neither of us had a silver spoon shoved in our mouth until we arrived at that mansion.”
Jason held Dick’s gaze. “Biologically,” he said. “We’re trash.”
--
Twenty years ago, Dick attended his first gala; a glorious, glittering affair that left his eight-year-old self wide-eyed and slack-jawed. Becoming a permanent fixture of Gotham Society was certainly an adjustment, especially for a circus kid whose performer’s smile was brittle with grief. But Dick was nothing if not a survivor. He soon learned that he could dazzle his audience with a smile and a quick quip just as well as he could with a trapeze.
And, sure, Bruce had always told him to be careful. To keep a watchful eye on his drink, and not to stray too far from Bruce’s side. But Bruce was overprotective, and Dick wasn’t a kid anymore. He didn’t need to fear Gotham’s elite because there was nothing to fear.
Besides, they were his friends…

Summary
“What’s wrong?” Dick asked. Bruce relaxed immediately - too immediately.
“Nothing, chum. Have some bacon.”
“Did something happen?” Dick took the bacon anyway, in preparation for a quick departure. “Do we have to suit up?”
“What?” Bruce blinked. “No. Nothing’s wrong, Dick. Eat your food. I’m going into work later for a meeting.”
“‘Kay,” Dick answered through a mouthful of bacon. “Is this about the fact that I called you Dad? I’m sorry, it just sort of slipped out. I won’t do it again.”
Bruce froze completely before setting his newspaper down.
OR
Dick calls Bruce 'Dad' and it unlocks a host of feelings for both of them. Since Bruce is terrible at communicating and Dick has many issues, it takes them a second to work it out.

Summary
Bruce slowly opens the door to his bedroom, and a heaviness enters with him. The air curdling in thick waves of emotion, leaving it feeling dense enough to cut through. His expression is neutral (painstakingly so), but when he makes eye contact with Clark something breaks in him. His face falls and he can't hold his emotions down anymore. He can't hold anything back when it comes to Clark.
Clark makes his way over to him, gently cupping his face in his hands. "Oh honey…"
OR Bruce has had a very long day and Clark discovers Bruce is very pretty when he cries.

“It’s alright sweetheart, you’re still a big boy.”
Jason nodded, but the words settled wrong in his stomach. Usually he would preen at that – given the age he regressed to, he would constantly be insisting he was a big boy, that he could do things himself. Now, though, he felt his throat constrict.
.
.
.
or: Jason just wants to be little to wind down after closing a painstaking case, but it seems his head may want him to be littler than usual, which makes him feel some big feelings.Series

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.
