    Summary

    It starts when Nightwing accidentally calls Batman dad.

    Barry thinks it's perhaps the funniest thing to happen in the history of ever. Then, he starts to notice that The Dark Knight actually does—kinda sorta maybe—act like a dad to the Gotham vigilantes?

    It only gets weirder from there.

    OR

    5 times the League saw the Gotham vigilantes treating Batman as their dad, and 1 time they (kind of) admitted it.

    The Batkids end up adopting the local BatBurger cashier (who, huh, that's funny, looks a lot like that kid their father tried and failed to save all those years ago).

    Summary

    Due to an unfortunate alignment of events, Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin and Robin are left to face an unknown magician alone.

    They don't survive.

    But Robins never seem to be able to stay dead, and this time they find themselves reborn into a world that's almost the same as their original one, with one glaring exception: their ages have been inverted. Armed with questionably reliable foreknowledge, it takes time to find their way back to each other—but they make it.

    And then they mess with everyone.

    (Bruce gave up on trying to make sense of his children after he got the second one.)

    ~

    This Gotham doesn’t know Robin, not yet. Robin has always supposed to be the light to Batman’s darkness, the comfort to be found among violence. Damian hadn’t been particularly adept at the ‘light’ part the first go around, for all that he’d been able to serve and protect, but he’d had his siblings’ reputations already standing for him to rely on. Here, now, he has to build everything from scratch—and he’s going to do it right.

    Summary

    Bruce doesn’t know what’s wrong with his child, but he’s pretty sure kids aren’t meant to work like this.

     

    From the day he had looked up into the tops of the circus tent and saw a frightened mirror image of a boy who had just experienced the worst day of his life, Bruce had instantly gone into emergency mode.

     

    The Gotham PD had wanted to pass the boy off into the care of the circus. The circus had mumbled underneath their breaths about superstitions, about not having a boy like that with them, about not being able to handle something like Dick. So GCPD, not knowing what to do, had started talking about one of the handful of overburdened boy homes that handles a majority of Gotham’s unlucky orphans.

     

    All the while, the camera lights flash bright and loud, wanting to know everything.

     

    Bruce couldn’t let that happen.

     

    Not then, not ever again.

    -🦇-

    Bruce is trying his best to protect the city that he loves. He doesn't know how exactly his Robins came to be- they're not fully human, not even at all. All he knows is that he wants to keep them safe.
