    Summary

    Upon his arrival in Gotham, Jason knew he needed to take down a drug organisation silently killing people on the street. An apartment complex at the outskirts of Crime Alley was the perfect place to do so.

    Except there's a strange boy from the room next door who likes to steal his doormat, leave stupid notes on his front door, and eat takeout on his couch uninvited. And is also possibly involved in criminal activity—what’s a rich kid doing alone in Crime Alley running from the drug ring’s henchmen, and how does he have personal contact with half of the Gotham rogues?

    It’s all very annoying. Jason doesn’t care about the kid at all, nope, not one bit.

    Or how Jason and Tim becoming neighbours again (and eventually roommates) somehow leads to them becoming brothers.

    Summary

    Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
    A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.

    But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
    Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.

    Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
    Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"

    They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contriditory.

    Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

    Summary

    Jarro joins the Bat Family - that is, the Bat Family from the Wayne Family Adventures universe.

    "You said 'he is'," Dick said. "You've been calling Jarro 'he', not 'it'. That isn't the League's protocol for alien specimens, is it?"

    "No," Bruce said. "Though I did call Jarro 'it' at first. Until he told me he wanted to be… addressed correctly."

    "So… your psychic alien starfish science experiment told you that you were misgendering him," Duke said. "And that made you realize he was a real person."

    Bruce winced. "That is… not entirely inaccurate."

    Summary

    When Matches Malone strides into Red Hood’s meeting and settles in among the new recruits, Jason Todd has never been more grateful for the full face helmet. Why was dad Bruce Batman here…?

    Then Jason thinks back to the gala and curses internally. Bruce had obviously figured out from their encounter at the gala who Red Hood really is, and has decided to… what? Taunt him? Anger flaring, Jason refuses to react to the persona that Jason himself had once helped Bruce to dress up as. Whatever this is, if Bruce wants to play dress up and look like a fool, who is Jason to stop him.

    ___________

    Bruce isn’t sure what to expect when he walks into the meeting led by Red Hood. Even though his recent ‘rescue’ at the hands of Hood had Bruce looking at the new crime lord's activities with a fresh light, there was still the more pressing concern.

    Red Hood had deliberately gone for and pressed the emergency beacon hidden on his belt. It could simply be that Red Hood had observed one of them using it. Or perhaps this newest criminal to Gotham just thought Batman was partial to the billionaire as some rumors suggested.

    Or Red Hood knows Bruce Wayne’s secret.
