Summary
Dick Grayson hugs the way most people breathe: easy and natural, like it's a necessary part of living.
Tim's wrapped up in one now, his brother's arms all the way around his shoulders, tugging him in close.
He's never told Dick that the first hug he can remember is that day at the circus, from a stranger who would in time be family. He's never told Dick that the next hug he remembers after that is nine years later, caught up in those same strong arms. He thinks he'd rather die than admit it.
"You're not hurt?" Dick is saying. "Nothing cruel and unusual, right?"
"She only let me have one cup of coffee a day," says Tim, very dry, and Dick makes a strange sort of a sound, almost a laugh, and tightens his hold so much it sweeps Tim right off his feet.

Summary
Jason is eleven months old, Bruce is stuck at a three-day Justice League meeting on the Watchtower, and Alfred is holding down the fort at the Manor — managing oatmeal disasters, bath time negotiations, and a baby who treats shoes as a personal affront.
Then Jason says his first word.
It's dada. And dada isn't here.
Alfred Pennyworth does not accept this as a permanent state of affairs. He packs the diaper bag, straps a baby to his chest, and teleports to an orbiting space station, because some things are more important than protocol — and a baby calling for his father is one of them.Bookmarked by cowsnotcrows

Summary
There is a legend in Gotham City. A ghost story. A night terror.
A myth to those outside the city, a way of life for the residents of Gotham.
Children sing the tale in the streets while adults whisper in hushed tones beneath floodlights, afraid of what hides in the dark.
It’s in the city’s blood, woven into the foundations of the people. The bold joke and the scared draw comfort and the unlucky few… well they don’t say anything anymore.
What is the line between inhuman and human? How does love and family shape your experiences? And perhaps most importantly, what does it mean to have humanity?
An exploration of love, trust, family and morality. A story of cascading consequences. A tale of change and overlapping decisions.
