Summary
“Are there other children?”
Damian bites his cheek until he feels it swell between his teeth. Of course no version of the Batman would be content without returning back to wherever he came from with a trophy of his victory.
Ordinarily, Damian wouldn’t lie. It’s too high risk.
Today is different from any other day though.
“No, sir.” Damian allows the lie to roll off his tongue with just the slightest sprinkling of regret. "Not Anymore"

Summary
It was all Dick's fault. His fault. Not Jason's. Not Bruce's. His. He was too weak and too distracted and too stupid. Careless. All he wanted was to meet Jason's mother alone, to judge her character. He didn't expect this to happen.
Lying against the cold floor of the warehouse he thought he didn't deserve to be Nightwing. This was not what uncle Clark’s hero was. He certainly was no failure.
(Or: In Ethiopia, Dick gets Jason’s permission to meet Sheila alone. It obviously goes terribly wrong.)

Summary
“Alfred,” Bruce starts, staring blankly ahead, “is that a European thing?”
Alfred’s indiscrete smirk grows, and he begins clearing away the dish Dick left behind. “No, I believe that is simply Master Dick showing affection.” He glances at Bruce from the side as he turns towards the sink. “Families share kisses in America as well, especially when children are young. Your mother was particularly fond of giving your young self kisses on the forehead.”
Bruce braces a hand on the counter, slumping into it. “Family,” he echoes in a whisper.

6 times Dick surprised a bat with a kiss, and 1 time a bat surprised him with one.

BAD THINGS HAPPEN BINGO PROMPT: THWARTED ESCAPE
It's rare when Batman lets him patrol on his own. He understands why, especially after what happened to his predecessor, but doesn't mean that he won't take advantage of the fact that tonight Batman and Corvid are elsewhere. Robin is thirteen. He's supposed to do dumb stuff like street racing random bikers through Gotham. Just his luck (bad, obviously) that the Red Helmet Guy had something a more sinister planned than a little racing.

Summary
“He didn’t even tell me you were dead in the first place. Missed your funeral because of him.”
Jason’s head snapped up, and Dick sighed in relief as Jason finally looked back at him. Neither brother said anything for a while, and Dick swallowed carefully.
“Little wing.”
Jason closed his eyes.
“Dickie.”

Summary
Because spending a year training with the League of Assassins and a couple of weeks shaking up Gotham’s underground without a single vacation since a violent death by crowbar-slash-explosion was going to lead to some complications.
