    Summary

    Bruce returned to the Batmobile, only to see the figure from before crouched down unscrewing the bolts on the fourth tire.

    He stumbled, almost falling over at the familiarity of it because Jason did the same thing and he’s not here anymore and it’s too much and he might fall over because Bruce misses him so goddamn much-

    And then the figure looked up and flashed a crooked grin before jokingly stating

    “Goddamnit B, you never could let me get to that fourth tire.”

    Summary

    Letting his body go tense with cold anger for the first time in his life, Tim takes the stairs to the top to speak with Barbara.

    “Hey Tim! What’d ya need?” She greets him while she’s staring at her screens, presumably guiding the Birds of Prey on something or something else equally important in her very busy, too-filled schedule.

    Ignoring her, he grabs the comfiest chair in the room and starts loudly moving it to be next to her station, while gathering the comfiest blankets he can find.

    Sitting down in his newly acquired chair, he finally looks up to meet her confused eyes with determined fury in his own.

    “I’m going to make this very clear. This is a call for attention. I need an hour or two of your undivided attention. I need you to listen to me, and not talk until the end. I need you to do this or I’m going to do something drastic like run away or burn down a building. Can you do this for me?”

    Her widened eyes do not make any change to his composed demeanor and stern eyes.

    The thing about never asking for something is that when you finally do, the smart people will listen.

    Summary

    “Maybe it is time to ask for help.”

    “Tried that already.” Dick hung his head over the arm of the sofa. “Pulled every ally we had away from their work before I learned that surprise! Gotham still needs a Batman.”

    “And now she has one. But that doesn’t mean he can’t ask for help. And I wasn’t thinking of ‘allies,’ Master Dick. I was thinking of family.”

     

    Bruce isn't dead, just lost in time. And Tim and Damian are finally . . . tolerating each other. But before they can get Bruce back, they'll need some help. Especially since the new string of thefts in Gotham is disturbingly bat-themed.

    This story will also involve: Museums, MacGuffins, Feelings, Crying, Talking About Issues (just so much talking—this is like a case-fic if the case was the B-plot and talking about issues was the A-plot), Plot Twists, Unnecessary Clothes Shopping Scenes, Slow-burn Sibling Bonding, Characters Who Definitely Need Therapy But Aren't Getting It (Yet), and Pointless Literary References!

    (Note: You probably don't need to have read "Redrawing the Lines" to understand this fic, but it does set up some of the characters' current relationships and why Damian is grounded.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Whole series is excellent.

    This is the fic where Cass and Jason use a chaos shard to rewrite reality. I know this is the only thing you can remember when trying to find this fic in your bookmarks
