Summary
Damian went missing, but Jason (accidentally) found him. Now look - just ‘cause Damian was all traumatised, broken and exhausted, did not make him Jason’s problem. He rescued the tiny pest, now the other idiots can deal with looking after him… if only the rest of the family weren’t stuck in the Cave.
To put it bluntly, Jason would’ve taken playing nurse to Timmy over the demon brat he barely knew.
But the issue was, it’s hard to ignore the little shit when he’s unable to act like a little shit ‘cause of all the pain and… dammit, Jason’s gonna end up having to hug the crying brat, isn’t he?
Ugh, it’s so annoying being such a good brother.

Summary
Light footsteps, soft rustling of fabric. A thump against one of the other doors in the hall, like a foot or an elbow, followed by a quietly snarled curse.
Damian lets out an irritated sigh.
He jerks the door the rest of the way open, fixing a glare into the dim light of the hall. “It is four in the morning,” he hisses at the small shadow now frozen in the doorway across and one down from his own, wide eyes staring back at him in the moonlight. “You understand that the time after patrol is intended to be for sleep?”
Todd hunches his shoulders. Were he a cat, his back would be puffed up defensively. “Then go to bed,” he hisses. “It’s not my fault you have freaky bat hearing!” His eyes dart nervously towards Father’s door at the end of the hallway.

Tim raised his head to mutter a groggy, "B?"
Batman looked away to hide a smile. "Go back to sleep, chum."
"I---oh, shit, the mission, I didn't mean to---"
"You didn't miss anything," Bruce reassured him, "and you clearly needed the rest."
"But---"
"Hush. Everything's alright. Just sleep."
Or; 5 Times the Batfam found Tim sleeping in increasingly weird places + 1 time they didn’t.

Summary
Suddenly, Jason felt a warm hand on his forehead, probably checking for a fever. The touch erased the horrific headache he’d been enduring. Letting out a sigh of relief, Jason went limp, tipping forward right into Dick’s arms.
Somewhere in the distance, he heard his brother grunt as he caught his full weight. Jason couldn’t bring himself to care, not when Dick’s touch felt so good.

Summary
Damian tries to pull his wrist out of his grasp.
Any other time, Dick would let him go without hesitation, always careful to make sure his personal space is respected.
This time, he catches his other wrist as well, gentle but firm as he crouches down to make eye contact. “Hey,” he says, smiling gently. “Do you trust me?”
Damian tilts his head, his forehead creased. “I do not understand why you are asking me this,” he says. He doesn’t pull his hands away, and that’s answer enough.
