Summary
Just a couple of snowbirds from Gotham City, enjoying the retired life with a vacation to warmer climes. At least, until some criminals decide their vacation home is the one to approach.
Pity the bad guys. They had no idea this charming old couple consists of a retired vigilante and his wife the former assassin.
Oops.
(This will be my free space fill for Trope Bingo Round Twelve, and the prompt I chose to fill is Marriage.)

Summary
Two women who love and are quite vexed by Bruce Wayne happen to cross paths at a Wayne gala. Then later at an opera, which Bruce attends with (yet another) woman. Cats love starting trouble; trouble is a Demon's stock in trade. And the most trouble they could possibly cause Bruce and each other hinges on being attracted to one another.
Or, "If you can't choose, Bruce, you'll lose - both of them, to each other."
Blame AlGhul for this one, she gave me the plotbunny.

Summary
Exactly what it says on the tin. Some scenes from Son of the Demon, as told from Talia's POV.
Talia wishes she remembered her mother more.
She wishes she remembered her mother's life more than her death, wishes she still knew all the words to the songs her mother sang her. She wishes she'd known what her mother would have done if Father had enacted some of his plans when she was still alive. -

Summary
From what Jason knew, Bruce and Talia’s paths had diverged sometime before Jason had even stepped foot into the manor, but no one would bring their ex-husband’s adopted son back to life as a gift without feeling some semblance of love. And after hours of thinking and analyzing Bruce’s weird personality, Jason was sure Bruce felt something too. Unfortunately, when Bruce faced complex emotions he shut down and treated everything with a sort of clinical coldness. Jason knew that better than most, but that was exactly how he knew that Bruce still carried a torch.

Summary
Talia's only in town for one night. There’s not enough time to go back to the Manor or to the penthouse, and no point in getting a hotel room. The only other options are this, or a nearby safehouse—and he won’t deprive the others from one of those.
So, Batmobile it is.

Summary
"Field trips just so happened to be the bane of Damian’s existence.
He’d attempted to bribe Father to be one of the chaperones on the trip. As good for publicity as it would have been, Father was too busy to join Damian.
So, Damian would be alone. Alone among over thirty of his classmates, alone among three other chaperones that Damian’s never met and his idiotic teacher who mispronounces everything other than the Wayne part of his name."
Then something unexpected happens when Talia al Ghul turns up.

Summary
Masquerades had a vile history, concealed by glitter and finery like just another face in the crowd. In this city, glamorous anonymity was an invitation to commit atrocities with impunity, and Talia knew that someone was there that night to take up that offer.
Unfortunately for them, she had also come ready to kill.

Summary
“I am not a ‘good’ person, hayatti.”
“You’re not?”
Talia had given him a wistful smile, running her hands gently, oh so gently, through his thick hair, tucking the stray strand behind his ear even if it was far too short to stay. She didn’t do it to fix his appearance, to alter it to standard, no, no she had an ulterior motive, a cruel idea of affection, of love. She wanted to love her son, how he needed. She wanted to love her son how she thought Bruce would love him, how his other children would love him, but she was Talia Al Ghul, and there was no such thing as affection in a household built on the blood of their own.
“No, ya albi, I am not.”
or; Damian struggles with the meanings of good and bad and the Wayne's view of his mother and what that means for him

Summary
The Batman is dead. Ra's Al Ghul's plans have come to fruition, and at last The League Of Assassins has acquired The Detective as not only an ally, but a servant.
While the remainder of Gotham's Knights grieve for their fallen mentor and attempt desperately to find some semblance of normalcy in what could be their new lives, The Daughter Of The Demon finds herself growing disillusioned with her aging father's ideals-- and, more importantly, in his treatment of her beloved. Loyalty, she finds, is a difficult flame to keep burning when one is in love.
What becomes of a man when you take away all he's ever known but one woman he hasn't seen in years? What becomes of a woman when she must choose between the destiny written for her and the one she wants for herself? What becomes of a family when they have no choice but to expose their own deepest secrets?
And what the hell does Bruce Wayne have to do with Batman?

"If you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely." Famous words rarely spoken. As for him? To hear them spoken from her lips. They became a decree. A guideline he made sure to follow for with her, the world would truly never be the same again.

Summary
“Your son is very talented, Mr. Wayne.” Damian’s teacher— what was her name, Miss Zheng— leaned forward in her chair and watched intently as Talia pored over the physical manifestations of everything that made Damian Damian. “Which is why I asked to speak with both of you specifically.”
“As you know, Gotham Arts recently opened, and there are still several spots open. I believe Damian would thrive there,” Miss Zheng continued, glancing intently at both Bruce and Talia, seemingly gauging their reactions. “I’d be more than happy to go over the details of applying with you both, as well as how the academy would benefit him.”
Bruce and Talia exchanged a glance.
