Summary
Damian and Morgan are giving this friendship thing a go, and are quickly becoming Gotham’s most tenacious duo.
Ned, MJ, and Barbara team up and do some actual detective work. Things start to get… weird.
Jason’s ✨PLAN✨ is completely derailed, Dick is having one crisis after another, Tim just wants everyone to get along, and Peter is rapidly coming to the conclusion that this is all his fault.
Tony and Bruce have everything under control, there is absolutely nothing to worry about, everything is fine. (Kryptonians? What Kryptonians?)As far as Jason is concerned, there are two problems: 1) Tony Stark is going to kill him and 2) Bruce Wayne is going to fucking end him. Because for all that the Red Hood just saved Morgan Stark’s life, it still looks a hell of a lot like a kidnapping.

"I only got halfway through the first one," Tim admits.
"They are children's books, and beneath my dignity to read," Damian claims.
"Well-" Dick begins, but is stopped by a pillow to the face.
"Well nothing!" Jason snaps. "I haven't read them yet, and if you spoil it for me I swear to god I'll never speak to you again!"
Well we all die, Dick fails to say. It hardly matters. After all, they're only characters in a story.
Right?
The Robins are reincarnated as the Marauders.
