    Summary

    The first time it happens, Bruce doesn’t do a great job at hiding his surprise. It was only a couple weeks after Tim’s adoption was officially finalized - hyphenated name and all. Bruce still smiles to himself at the memory of reading ‘Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne’ on those papers, trying not to choke up at his third son being the first to take the Wayne name. Of course that was never an expectation, but still, it meant something that Tim chose to take it.

    With that considered, perhaps Bruce shouldn’t have been quite so shocked by the teen calling him ‘Dad’, but he is. And he’s even more startled to hear it declared loudly as Tim abruptly sprints towards him down the hall at full speed.

    “Dad Test!”

    Or

    Tim starts a trend in the family of jumping at Bruce at random, increasingly difficult times shouting: 'Dad Test!' to see if he'll catch them. This leads to many shenanigans & then crash lands into angst because of course it does.

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne is a man of many vices. Everybody knows this, but particularly his family. At night he vanishes into the dark and Wayne manor holds its bated breath for his return.

    Is it drugs this night that he has gone out to look for? Is it sex? The fights he likes to get into, underground rings? Or perhaps the wild parties he likes to partake in? Those perhaps the most harmless of his vices.

    It is always a coin toss with him. But one thing is for certain. Bruce, father and son, always, always comes back to his family.

    Or: Bruce Wayne is Batman, but nobody knows. To his family, he's just a most flawed man whom they are doomed to watch destroy himself night after night.

    Summary

    In which Gotham's favored son is presented with the opportunity to cleanse her of her curse: and all it takes is a year and a day of sacrifice.

     

    “You won’t ask for help? Your children could share the burden.”

     

    “No!” he said strongly, then settled back, ever so slightly abashed. “Sorry, Gotham. No, please. If this can be done by me alone, please. They’ve suffered enough.”

    Summary

    Studying his profile as she pours, the name clicks in her head like she knew it would. Even downturned, that face is unmistakable, and the realization thunders lightly in her mind.

    Bruce Wayne.

    Summary

    “Hey,” Peter said without opening his eyes. He buzzed with awareness – not quite spider-sense, but a pleasant alternative, the electric tingle of Johnny in bed next to him, the soft sound of his breath and the bonfire-faded, criminally expensive cologne scent of him. “You know I love you, right?”

    Johnny breathed out, slow, and settled his head on Peter’s shoulder. “I love you.

    “Good,” Peter said, smiling.

    Johnny flung an arm over Peter’s chest and Peter hummed sleepily, relaxing into his hold.

    He woke up around sunrise to the pad of paws on the pillow, a two second warning before five pounds of fluff settled on top of his head and immediately started purring. A tail swished in his eye.

    “I hate this,” Peter said without conviction.
    --

    Peter accidentally gets Johnny a kitten.
