    Summary

    “Would you like a hug?” Tim asked again, heat crawling from his cheeks all the way to the tips of his ears the longer Hood silently stared at him, a wall of unreadable stone.

     

    It finally occurred to him exactly what he had asked and to whom he had asked it. His entire face felt molten as the mortification kicked in, leaving him unable to do anything but stare back. 

     

    Then, Tim saw it. A small movement, hardly more than a spasm. Hood’s hand holding the gun faltered while the other twitched forward, towards Tim. Granted, he was hissing out a string of curses that would have made Alfred sad all the while. But still. Tim knew how to read between the lines. 

     

    Tim also knew how to take advantage of opportunities presented to him on silver platters.

    Summary

    /ækˈsizməs/
    noun
    1. when one feigns disinterest or indifference for something they desire
    2. a form of irony

    Example: Dick buys two birthday cards for Damian. One starts with “For my son,” and the other says “To a cool guy.” Dick gives Damian the latter, and keeps the former locked away. He doesn’t need to make this into something it’s not.

     

    Or, Dick is tasked with raising Damian in the wake of Bruce’s death. This is the fallout of their separation upon Bruce’s sudden and unexpected return.

    Summary

    Alfred stares at him. It’s in the same way he does when Bruce has not taken off the suit in three days. Bruce doesn’t think this is at all warranting that level of judgement or concern.

    “Oh?” Alfred says, after a good ten seconds. “May I enquire why, sir?”

    “B’s being a petty bitch,” Dick informs him, appearing behind Bruce’s legs.

    “Language,” Bruce says on instinct. “There’s a baking sale. And Dick’s stall will win.”

    “I did not realise bake sales were a competitive sport,” Alfred says.

    “Tell that to Candace Pearson-Scott,” Bruce says.

    or:

    as a wise man once said, if you don't think Bruce Wayne's greatest nemesis isn't the Joker, but the fakest housewife in the Batkids PTA chapter, I don't know what to tell you.

    Summary

    Dick leaned back on the other side of his couch. The room was dark, cold. Usually at this time right now he would have been at the manor. First it had been for Alfred’s birthday, and then when Jay had joined, both of theirs.

    Not this year. No one felt up to doing anything, and Alfred had sounded so sad over the phone when he had called to wish him a happy birthday.

    “Happy sweet sixteen Jaybird. I got you something, it’s just a little charm. I’m gonna put it on your grave when I go next.”

     

    OR Dick Grayson hallucinates his younger brother, this is a fic to see what that might have been like.

    Summary

    They travel through Gotham in silence for a bit. The city below them is dying. There are bodies on the streets that the emergency services have no time to pick up. Clench is fast. Way too fast for them to outrun. Dick holds Tim.
    It's the only thing he can do.

    (Or, alternatively, Batman: Contagion from Dick's Grayson POV)
