Summary
“You’re saying that the reason you are looking into options for a year abroad is vigilante-related?”
“Yes,” Tim says immediately. There is no hesitation there, no strange inflection to his voice. He doesn’t avoid Bruce’s eyes, nor is he fidgeting with anything.
That is how Bruce knows he’s lying.
Or: One by one, Bruce realises that his kids' future isn't set in stone.

Summary
Tim knows, he just knows, that Jason is about to ruin everything. Jason is going to tell Bruce about his parents, and Bruce is going to misunderstand, and then he’ll call CPS, and Tim is going to be trapped in a group home and nobody is going to adopt him because nobody wants to adopt a fifteen-year-old, and he’s going to get into drugs and die under a bridge before he’s eighteen, and it’s all because of one stupid broken arm.

Summary
Tim's parents faked their deaths and fled the country years ago, but neglected to take him with them. He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

Summary
Jason didn’t know when it started. If he thought about it, he remembered the bright light that surrounded his mom in her last days. After that, he noticed the way some people lit up, outlined in a growing brightness that emitted from the edges of their beings. The brighter the individual, the closer they were to death.
At the parties that Bruce insisted on dragging him to, he expected the dim light from the tired old businessmen who drank too much and were limping closer to their ends, glowing a little more every time Jason saw them.
What he did not expect was for the 12-year-old neighbor kid to light up like a damn Christmas tree the second Jason laid his eyes on him.
