A MOMENT THAT'S HELD IN YOUR ARMS. by orpheusaki for ocellar

Summary
Robin is used to Batman shouting at him. Mistakes happen, and he's not always the most careful, but it's expected. It's his job, even if it hurts Robin a little to look at Batman for the rest of the patrol — that's his boss. He gets over it.
But this is the first time Bruce Wayne has raised his voice at Jason, and Jason's entire world is collapsing on top of him.

Summary
Then, when Bruce is almost certain Jason's asleep and is starting to doze off to the faint rumble of the car engine, he blinks awake to hear the quietest mumble of, “I miss you.”
Bruce frowns, peering down at the boy. Jason follows his sudden confession with a small snore, completely knocked out against Bruce's chest. If not for the way Alfred glances back at them as well, Bruce would've thought that maybe he imagined it.
But he hadn't, and while confused, he tightens his arm around the boy, “I'm right here Jason. We're going home.”
All Jason does is snore in reply.
(Jason seems to miss Bruce an awful lot, even when he's right there.)

Summary
"Come on," the boy whispers pleadingly, holding up what looks like a half eaten apple in an attempt to coax Ace out of her pen, though it seems to no avail. She stands with as much indifference and care as a brick wall.
Bruce, who's been around for enough decades that he thinks he might be constituted as old by mythological terms, has never had someone outright try to rob his horse. His armour, sure, sometimes even his weapons and bags — though no one makes it very far on broken legs with either.
But his horse?
It's so bizarre, in fact, that Bruce can't stop the bubbling laughter rip out of his throat.
(A young Jason Todd tries to steal the Bat's horse.)

Summary
"B?" Robin asks, confused at Bruce's long silence, "They're going to move. What's your call?"
Batman realises he can't ever remember the last time Dick waited for his call before jumping headfirst into a skirmish. Well before he turned fifteen, at the very least. A long time ago now.
They're working properly together all of a sudden, listening to each other and waiting for instructions — but for some inexplicable reason, Bruce feels as though they're two completely different people. It is still Batman and Robin, but it's not Batman and Robin.
It's… strange.
(Something is different about Dick. Bruce notices.)

Summary
After the attack on the Drakes leaves Janet dead and Jack in a coma, Tim moves into the manor full-time. It isn't until then that Bruce begins to suspect that Tim hasn't always been truthful with him, that there may have been more going on with Janet's death. Meanwhile, Tim is just trying to keep Bruce from finding out his darkest secret and Dick is just trying to keep his little brother from falling apart at the seams.
Or: Tim learns the true meaning of family, slowly and a little painfully.

Summary
When Dick Grayson accidentally portals into the past, he finds himself on the Justice League’s Watchtower surrounded by younger versions of the original members of the Justice League...including Batman.
But none of them have any idea who Nightwing (or even Robin) is.
What a perfect opportunity to create a little chaos...while also trying not to break the timestream.

Summary
“The Red Hood has been good for Gotham,” Robin continued. “Crime in Park Row decreased by sixty one percent almost as soon as you showed up, and that’s even taking into account all the crime you commit. Drug overdoses have decreased by twenty two percent in adults and seventy nine percent in minors. Homeless minors are ninety two percent less likely to—”
“Kid,” Jason interrupted. “Enough statistics. What the hell is this about?”
Robin slowly lowered the tablet with his powerpoint presentation and looked up at Red Hood.
“You care about Gotham,” Robin summarised. “Gotham needs Batman. Batman is missing and so is Nightwing. We need you to fill in for Batman.”
“You want me to cover Batman’s patrols?” Jason clarified.
“No,” Robin said. “I want you to be Batman.”
Jason bluescreened.
(Or: Batman and Nightwing mysteriously disappear before Red Hood has even started antagonising them, Robin is desperate, Gotham needs Batman, and Red Hood is Batman-Shaped.)

Summary
“Dick?” Bruce voice echoes from the room over. “Is that you?”
“Yeah,” Jason hums, pitching his voice slightly higher to match Dick’s.
He doesn’t even need to try to mask his Crime Alley drawl; he’s had enough practice of that over time, after all those years in stiff-collared dress shirts, speaking to rich gala attendees and acting as if he wasn’t filthier than the bottom of their dress shoes. Back when he was still Bruce's son.
After a run-in with a sorcerer leaves Bruce temporarily blind, Jason takes advantage of this to visit the manor whilst pretending to be Dick.

Summary
"Why aren't you allowed to stim?"
Tim takes a deep breath, “It’s the rules.”
“It’s not a rule in this house, you can stim all you want. Did you know that?”
Of course, Tim knew that, but he was a Drake, Drake rules trump Wayne house rules, right? He couldn’t bring the shame of him having autism to the Drake name.
“Tim?” Oh, he’s been silent longer than he should have.
“Ah, sorry.” He looks Bruce in the eye, trying not to flinch at the effort. “I know it’s not a house rule.”
“Then who’s rule is it?”
OR
When the Batfam learns of Tim's time at the Rotenburg Institute for People with Autism via Tim having a meltdown and panic attack, they get together to better support their bother while in and out of uniform.

Summary
The kid looked him up and down, unbothered.
“You’re trespassing.”
Jason frowned at him and crossed his arms on instinct, getting defensive “It’s abandoned!” He knew he had no right to be here. But this kid sure didn’t either.
“I live here,” the child replied simply.
Jason stared at him. The mysterious child stared back.
or
The Drake Manor has been empty for years. Everyone knows that. The couple who owned it vanished on one of their archaeological expeditions, leaving behind dust, shadows, and rumors of a ghost.
Jason Todd doesn't believe in ghosts. But when Dick dares him to prove it, he finds something worse: a kid, alone, starving, barely surviving in the abandoned house next door. Tim doesn't need rescuing. He needs someone who'll come back.
Jason can do that. Even if no one else believes he's worth trusting with anything.Bookmarked by Shadowmightwrite17

Summary
Jason didn’t like Tim. In fact, he hated the brat.
Bruce insists that the kid is no harm, but Jason begs to differ. The kid is about as cold as cold can be, he tried to talk to the kid and got glared at. Rich, nepo baby Tim Drake couldn’t stand having even one conversation with street trash like Jason.

Summary
Batman dies saving Red Hood.
Jason Todd doesn't agree with this outcome and wishes for more time.
He wakes up, thirteen and earnest, in his childhood bedroom in Wayne Manor. Bruce is knocking at his door in an attempt to rouse him. Jason remembers this day. They're going to a Gotham Knights game later in the afternoon. Bruce's blood is still warm and criminal on his hands.
‘“Have you ever thought about that?” Jason murmurs. “Being rich in time?”
He feels Bruce’s fingers carding through his hair again. “It’s the most precious commodity of all. It’s priceless. It’s the one thing that I wish I had more of. You don’t have to worry about that, Jay. You’re fifteen. You have your whole life ahead of you.”’
Or, the one where being Robin never gave Jason magic—he was a little magic all along. Jason decides to do things a little differently the second time around. Wherein time casts a spell on them, and Bruce discovers the drag path Jason left in his wake.

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.
