Summary
“No comment.”
“You don’t know what I was going to ask,” Clark said with a hint of a smile. “Maybe I just wanted to congratulate you on catching the Film Freak.”
Bruce gave him a flat look.
“Or maybe I think I can help.”
“With a case of vandalism?”
Clark stepped in front of him. “It’s not vandalism and you know it, detective.”
“And what makes you say that?”
“If it were vandalism it would be something a lot more juvenile. To the point. It wouldn’t claim there were seventeen missing kids. That’s public outcry.”
“Is that so?”
“That and I tried to do a story on the growing number of homeless children last month and I got shut down. According to the last count, the numbers have been decreasing, but there’s been no change in policies, no extra funding to CPS, or shelters, or even an increase in the number of inmates in the juvenile detention center. So where are they going?”
Detective Bruce Wayne may have the highest solve rate in Gotham, but if he wants to solve this case, he’ll need the help of an elusive street kid, and while Dick Grayson always lands on his feet, he usually lands himself right into trouble.

A rope snaps. The break is the birth of a myth.
A bullet fires. The ricochet is the death of two gods.
Canon-divergent take on what happens after Bruce returns from the dead, and Dick stops wearing the cowl.

Summary
As an eight year old Robin, Dick had traversed the tightrope of good and evil effortlessly, understanding how to navigate the world's morality in the way that only a child could. He knew right, he knew wrong and he knew how to differentiate between the two. As an adult, Dick didn’t have that certainty, and he no longer ran, skipped and cartwheeled over that tightrope. Instead, he crawled in a way that felt humiliating, even when no one else knew how much he was struggling to stand.
It's been six months since Nightwing dragged himself from the burning warehouse he'd been held captive in; bloodied, broken and with the fury of an avenging phoenix. And Dick Grayson has spent that time painstakingly putting his persona back together in a way that belies the total destruction wreaked over his mind and body.
Sure, the lie isn't as perfect as he wishes it was. But none of that matters. Not really, anyway. Because as the curtains open on the performance of Dick Grayson's lifetime, he knows one bitter truth; this is his path, and he has to walk it alone.

Summary
With Jason gone, Batman and Robin are stretched too thin. New villains seem to be arriving — or returning — almost every day. Gotham is left in a constant state of restoration. And the truce between Bruce and his two eldest sons is tenuous at best, and dangerously volatile at worst.
It would be the absolute worst time for his youngest to be abducted.
Or: Dick finds himself at the mercy of the older brother he didn’t know he had.
Saving himself might just mean saving Damian, too.

Summary
Astrid and Eadwulf are sent to retrieve Bren the moment Master Ikithon knows his location. They come back with Caleb and a very angry goblin as a hostage.
Caleb is a long way from the man who used to be the Archmage's favorite student. Nott might be a way to his heart. The real question is; what will it take to get Bren back? And what damage will it do to the long-held dreams and designs of his old friends?
