Summary
If Joey closes her eyes, this can feel like any normal day. If she opens them again, the gaping hole in the TV and the jagged edges of the remaining glass scream at her that something is very wrong.
🍃
Or: Twenty-nine hours ago, Dick said he had to go back to Gotham for a few days to tie up some loose ends, meet up with his foster siblings, stuff like that. Now, his face is on TV and he’s apparently Nightwing.

Summary
»What would be a good feminine for thief?« Dick asks Barb, staring at the silver clasp behind the security glass in hopes of making his question sound casual. It’s totally not as if he has spent frankly embarrassing amounts of time thinking about this.
◌◌◌
Dick and Barb steal a silver clasp from a museum, discuss language(s), and write a note about the lack of security.

Summary
Your daughter is born and you are overjoyed. You’re doomed, but you don’t know that yet.
◊
You’re Marcus, you’re Tullius, you’re Cicero – a man of words until the end. (It shouldn’t have come as a surprise that you had to write your own consolatio.)

holding his breath by too many prehensibles (zero_chillius_catullus)

Summary
Nightwing is dying and that doesn’t make any sense at all. Nightwing is leaning over him, the Joker’s crowbar in his hands, and this is how it was always going to end, but it still doesn’t make any sense. Nightwing is standing right in front of him and if Jason isn’t careful, he will probably violently flinch away.
Jason is holding his breath.
&
There’s a story that’s never told in full. It ends like this: Essentially, Jason Todd never says anything at all about the time Dick Grayson died and came back.

What about me? Dyan doesn’t ask. But Kennard made his decision once, and now he will live with it. (Dyan thinks that at one point, he must have loved him for that.)

Summary
Apparently, planetrees are good for Chicago. If Nightwing had been able to stay, he might have been good for Chicago, too. At least, that’s what his former roommates (like to) think.

Summary
Essentially, Jason Todd never says anything at all about the time Dick Grayson died and came back. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t know anything.
It also doesn’t mean that the truth won’t come out, one way or another.

They would pay any price that was asked, Nimueh whispered at the end, trembling with exhaustion, desperate, pleading, anything, anything at all. Just give her this child. Give her the son he stole from her.

Summary
Five dealers almost wet their pants when they notice Dick staring from the shadows when drugs and money exchange hands.
A potential buyer deadass drops down to pray a Hail Mary like he wasn’t about to purchase enough weapons to arm a small country.
And the less said about Hood’s own men, the better.
Jason doesn’t even bother with patrol that day. He’s pretty sure that—by the end of the night—all of Gotham knows that control of their resident Talon’s exchanged hands.

Summary
It's been two days since Damian could get out of bed, even if it's only in a wheel chair. Dick still has at least four weeks in the casts on his arms, and six in the soft leg cast encompassing his right leg from foot to knee.
Meaning if something happens… if something comes… Damian won't be able to fight, and Dick won't be able to fight well.
After Batman's attack on Titans Tower, Dick, Jason, Damian, and Tim struggle to adapt to a life without the threat of Batman hanging over their head.

Summary
The universe Bruce wakes up in has superheroes, aliens and, somewhat more strangely, it also has four children living in Wayne Manor.
Bruce Wayne is almost forty. He's been an innovator, a philanthropist and GQ's Most Wanted twelve years counting. He doesn't remember being a dad. But now that he is, he's going to be the best dad one could possibly be.
Or: Batman is a dick. AU-Bruce saves the day.
