    Summary

    Tim averts his eyes, fiddles with the sleeves of his hoodie. “Have you ever…noticed anything strange about me?”

    The silence extends for far too long. Tim chances a glance back up, only to find Duke struggling to keep his face in check.

    “Dude! I’m being serious here!”

    Duke bursts into laughter. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Just—I mean—you’re a strange guy!”

    “I know that! But I meant it like,” Tim gestures wildly around him, “in the energy, light sense. Is there anything unusual surrounding me?”

    The question causes Duke’s laughter to die down. “Yeah, dude, you got that whole Chaos Cloud thing going on. I thought you knew that.”

    Tim stills. “The what.”

    ___

    Tim Drake begins to notice something strange, but the patterns keep shifting. In order to solve this strange mystery, he must reach out for help, face his suppressed emotions, and discover the power of his own Chaos!

    Summary

    “But now what will I wear when I go out into the cold?” Hal asks jokingly with a raised brow, staring at the coat now stolen from him.

    Bruce pretends to mull it over, brushing the back of his hand against Hal's arm, the hills of his knuckles brushing against the tweed, “You'll just have to wear mine for the time being. It suits you.”

    If Hal raises his brow any further, he runs the risk of it flying off his forehead entirely, but his surprise is only fueled further by the fire in Bruce's irises, “That's awfully possessive, even for you.”

    “Is it?” Bruce asks, pulling his arm away.

    (Hal's first date with Bruce goes as well as anyone expected — not. It ends better.)

    Summary

    "You!” Damian scoffs in outrage, shaking his head, “You're the man engaged to my father.”

    Hal stops mixing the hot chocolate powder into the warm milk, turning around slowly to face the boy. He's so confused, he can only try to decode one part of that sentence at a time, “Your father? Like, your father, Batman? That one?”

    Wrong point to focus on it seems, since Damian's scowl deepens to an impossible degree, “Are you seeing multiple other men that you need me to clarify?!”

    “No! I'm not seeing any men!” Hal tries to reason, before realising that he's having the strangest conversation with Robin, of all people.

    (Due to some misunderstandings, Hal is now engaged to Batman and a stepfather of five, allegedly.)

    Summary

    There were worse things in the world than spending three days working through the lingering effects of Scarecrow’s latest rampage, Hal was sure. For instance, having to ask Bruce for help. Also on the list? Having to deal with his feelings.


    Hal looked at the contraption in his hand. It reminded him of nothing so much as an epi-pen, which he also had no idea how to use. “So you just… have this. On hand. Ready to go.”

    “One doesn’t earn the coveted title of Mr. Contingency Plan by being unprepared,” Bruce told him, and Hal winced. He hadn’t meant for Bruce to overhear that, had he? Then again, he’d said it loud enough that any Martians left kicking it in their ruins had probably heard him, over Barry’s strenuous and utterly futile attempts to get him to pipe down, so he hadn’t exactly not meant for Bruce to hear it, either. “Instructions are on the package, and there’s a bathroom just down the hall to your left if you’d prefer to administer it in private.”

    If Hal wanted someplace to get his shit together for a few seconds, Bruce meant.
