It’s been three months since Bruce accepted Tim as Robin, and every night Bruce still patrols alone while Tim microwaves frozen lasagna and finishes his algebra II homework. But Tim is tired of waiting to be ready, and takes up the totally safe, totally sane hobby of midnight streetfighting.

Summary
“Holy shit,” poncho dude murmurs, staring up where everyone can’t seem to tear their eyes away. “What the fuck is that?”
Tony Stark is falling, for a second time, and he’s not stopping, and Peter isn’t the Hulk—he’s injured, he’s barely on his feet, for one, and his acme caps out a few meters above the tallest building in the city—Wayne Enterprises, some decent miles away. He can’t do anything to stop it.

Summary
He has never argued with a punishment, not since he was a toddler, if then. Surely she’ll listen, surely she’ll see this is too harsh, that he wouldn’t be disrespecting her like this if he was simply sulking over not getting his way. He needs that food, needs to be able to eat enough if he wants to be Robin.
He’s been hungry before, but back then, it never mattered if he was a little weak or dizzy. It never risked his life or the life of his partner when he was a kid.
She turns, sighing softly and pursing her lips. She reaches out to pat his cheek, and for a moment his heart soars hopefully, and he barely restrains himself from leaning into the rare bit of contact and soaking up his mother’s touch. “Oh, Timothy,” she tuts. “This is for the best. And honestly, I think it’s wise for you to cut down a bit on the snacks. I’d hate to have to listen to anyone tittering at the next gala that you’re getting chubby.”
And without another backwards glance, she turns and heads upstairs, leaving Tim alone and frozen at the bottom of the steps.
