  2. Summary

    Barbara really, really should have told Jim that she was a troll and that it was hereditary before his first transformation began. With any luck, her girlfriend can help her sort out this mess.

    (A shapeshifter AU in which all trolls have a human form; the ones who live in Trollmarket just don't bother with theirs. For the trolls living on the Surface, it's a lot like being a werewolf, except the transformation is tied to the planet Mercury rather than the moon)

    Summary

    It barely registers that strings of promises and apologies and cries of please, please, please are leaving his lips too fast to comprehend. He’s too lost in his thoughts to stop the motion now, and trips over his stumbling feet and over the netting– and suddenly he’s falling, plummeting, down, down, down

    --

    Tim almost forgot how he learned how to fly. Almost.

    Summary

    Bruce doesn’t know what’s wrong with his child, but he’s pretty sure kids aren’t meant to work like this.

     

    From the day he had looked up into the tops of the circus tent and saw a frightened mirror image of a boy who had just experienced the worst day of his life, Bruce had instantly gone into emergency mode.

     

    The Gotham PD had wanted to pass the boy off into the care of the circus. The circus had mumbled underneath their breaths about superstitions, about not having a boy like that with them, about not being able to handle something like Dick. So GCPD, not knowing what to do, had started talking about one of the handful of overburdened boy homes that handles a majority of Gotham’s unlucky orphans.

     

    All the while, the camera lights flash bright and loud, wanting to know everything.

     

    Bruce couldn’t let that happen.

     

    Not then, not ever again.

    -🦇-

    Bruce is trying his best to protect the city that he loves. He doesn't know how exactly his Robins came to be- they're not fully human, not even at all. All he knows is that he wants to keep them safe.

    Summary

    “You don’t need my permission to put the baby in his crib, Matt.”

    “The crib is in your bedroom.”

    “You act like you’ve never been in there.”

    “I haven’t.”

    Jessica thought it over. Matt had been over several days in the past few weeks and never left the office or the kitchen. “Well holy shit. You haven’t, have you?”

    Matt chuckled. “Our original meetup wasn’t exactly traditional.”

    “You mean we had sex on my couch.”
    ——————————-
    Co-parenting is hard. Jessica and Matt do their best, even when their pasts come back to bite them in the ass.
