Summary
Bruce and Jason are lost in the woods, not knowing how they got there, or even where they are. A little road trip even when there is no road is always good for bonding though.

Summary
Bruce didn’t want to die.
But he could think of no death more beautiful for a dying father.
To have achieved it in protecting his son, cradled in the arms of a boy once too small to wrap his arms around his waist.
It pained him to leave his son so early, so abruptly, but if it had to happen, Bruce couldn’t think of a more worthwhile death.
“I love you.”
Bruce keeps dying. He does not know that he's already died multiple times today but his children do. And they're going to save him.
(Groundhog Day fic told entirely from the perspective of someone who doesn't remember the loop.)

Summary
Jason turned to stomp out of the room - with a very aggressive slam of the heavy oak door, Bruce was sure - then paused.
He looked at Bruce. He looked at Tim, sitting happily in Bruce's lap and gnawing on an apple slice. He narrowed his eyes. Then he marched over, snatched Tim out of Bruce's hold, propped the boy on his hip, and finished storming dramatically away.
Bruce blinked. Well, alright then. He hoped having Tim there would help Jason feel better.
[Tim is five, Jason is ten, Bruce is a decent parent, and cuddles make everything better]

Summary
Clark wants to take Bruce’s hand, but Bruce would see it as pity. He wants to ask, “why didn’t you ask for help, if it was this bad?” But he doesn’t, because he knows the answer. Bruce is fiercely protective of his own independence, resents any intrusion into the territory he considers his own. If the League had tried to help, Bruce would have viewed it as an insult, proof that they didn’t think he could handle it alone.
Bruce is still staring at the far wall.
“Do you really want me to go,” Clark says.
“Please,” Bruce says. And it’s that word, the word that Bruce uses so, so rarely, that sends him out the door.

After Bane breaks Batman's spine, Clark visits Bruce.
