Summary
“So!” Dick says with great fanfare, throwing himself across Bruce’s designated chair with nary a care in the world.
The Justice League look on with a mix of befuddled awe, like they’ve never seen a child dressed up like a traffic light before. Which they haven't. Bruce mentally steels himself as Dick clears his throat. “Why am I here, you ask? Well, when two people love one another very, very much-”
“You’re adopted.” Bruce says.
Or; Bruce lets Dick attend a Justice League meeting on the Watchtower. Bruce has regrets.

What does he do? Goes to the smartest person he knows: Tim Drake
There's only one problem: Tim Drake is...seven?

Summary
Never again, Bruce told himself. He was broken, just like he'd always believed. It hurt too much. He couldn't bear it.
All he was meant for was the fight. He was a dark knight, not a light one. He was not a father, and he would never try to fool himself again.
Or, the Platonic Batfam Soulmark AU nobody asked for but I felt compelled to write.
