Summary
It's been two days since Damian could get out of bed, even if it's only in a wheel chair. Dick still has at least four weeks in the casts on his arms, and six in the soft leg cast encompassing his right leg from foot to knee.
Meaning if something happens… if something comes… Damian won't be able to fight, and Dick won't be able to fight well.
After Batman's attack on Titans Tower, Dick, Jason, Damian, and Tim struggle to adapt to a life without the threat of Batman hanging over their head.

Summary
Most of the Bats seem to think that Jason enjoys killing. That he's some sort of psychopath, gleefully watching for any and all excuses to start filling people with bullets. Like he's just waiting, lurking on rooftops, waiting for someone to twitch wrong so he can shoot them dead.

Summary
Watching Dick take a few, baby-giraffe style steps back, Jason has to resist the urge to kick the corpse behind him. And it's only because Dick is still up and moving -technically, anyway -that he manages to beat the temptation down.

Summary
Roy keeps quiet about it as long as he can. Which means he lasts up until the fourth time they fall in bed together.
To be honest… Roy's not sure what to even call their relationship at this point. They're way beyond friends with benefits, but Roy's pretty sure if he says 'boyfriend', Jason's going to dart for the nearest fire escape.
They've been sleeping together for almost two months though, and Roy has come to an unpleasant realization.

Summary
Fire is funny thing, Jason thinks, staring at the burning inferno.
Usually, this time of the year means celebrations. The harvest would start in a few days, a week at most, and the people of Gytham celebrate by eating the last of whatever's leftover from spring and summer.
Not this year though. Jason looks beyond the walls of the keep, and he can see hundreds of fires burning, hundreds of small fires turning the night sky into a conflagration.

Summary
"Just because you don't trust me—"
"Why should I trust you, Hood?" Bruce said flatly. Like he was commenting on the weather. "You don't listen, you don't follow the plan, you're reckless and emotional and it—"
"It what.”
"It's going to get you killed. Again."
"Is that what you think?" He whispered, so softly Dick almost didn't hear it. Bruce turned to face Jason. "World's greatest fuckin' detective, doesn't even know how his own kid died? I should've fucking realized."

Summary
This time, when he opened his eyes, he managed to keep them open long enough to register that he wasn’t in the Cave anymore, and that Bruce was sitting in the chair by the bed. Jason tried to move, and he could feel a hand in his.
When he was thirteen, the sight of Bruce by his side, the feel of Bruce’s hand squeezing his own, when he woke up like this—it had made him feel warm and safe.
Jason wasn’t thirteen anymore.

Summary
Some things couldn't be healed with time. Sometimes, someone had to make the first move.
--
"Look, the last thing Jason probably wants is for me to get involved between you two, but reasoning with you is like arguing with a brick wall, except the wall actually has its shit together."Bruce clenched his teeth together. "Do you have a point?"

If You Take Your Goon to a Gala by KNMI

Summary
Bruce is thrilled when his wayward son is willing to attend family events and start mending their relationship. He pulls out all the stops for a gala in Jason's honor... only for his Jaylad to arrive under the thumb of a threatening date - one who seems to know more than he should about the family.
Meanwhile, Jason has returned to Crime Alley after shooting the Penguin, and the months of physical therapy to recover from Batman's 'discipline' afterwards. He is maintaining tentative alliances with the more tolerable bats, but when Dick begs him to attend a Wayne Gala, the Red Hood finds himself scrambling for a bodyguard. After all, who wants to spend an evening undercover making nice with the vigilante who put him in a hospital?
Or: Jason is stuck with only a single henchman as backup for a 'family' event, but Bruce does not approve of his son's date.
