    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

    Tim Drake time traveled his way out of the Batfamily. This is the aftermath of that decision.

    I’m setting the pieces in chronological order but reading them in the order I posted them is ok too

    [Series previously known as ‘For A Different Twist In The Storyline’ but then I came up with a title I liked more.]

    Summary

    All King Bruce of Gothika wants to do is to return home to his wife and infant son after being forced to go off to war. And bring along this demigod kid he found while they besieged the demon city. Oh, and the plucky orphan he picked up on the Isle of the Lotus Eaters. And the shapeshifter boy who'd been living as a lamb in the cyclop's den. And—well, you get the picture. Good thing he and Talia had always wanted a large family!

    Summary

    Tim is prepared to take the steps necessary to ensure that Bruce will not feel obligated to adopt Tim when a comatose Jack Drake inevitably dies. But what could be better than preventing Bruce from ending up with a son he doesn't want? Bringing back the one he does.

    Jason agrees to the Replacement's stupid, stupid plan to invite some strange adult man he's never met to come live with him, if only to keep the idiot alive long enough for him to serve his purpose in the Great Red Hood Revenge Scheme.

    Might this new roommate situation have an impact on either of their worldviews? Surely not...
