Summary
“The moon is made of Swiss cheese”, Jason deadpans and for a moment he forgets to be hurt and emo in favor of throwing Dick a look so judgy it almost burns.
Despite himself, Dick’s lips twitch. “Gouda?”
The kid scrunches his nose. “Swiss, you imbecile. Gouda is Dutch. I was thinking Appenzeller for the moon.”
“Isn’t that a dog?”
_________________Dick had a total of four conversations with Bruce’s new kid, when Jason Todd appears on his doorsteps and demands a sleepover. What follows, is the most emotionally tumultuous night of Dick’s life, a lot of card games, good food, and the realization that maybe being a brother isn’t as bad as Dick thought it would be.

Summary
Jason, the plaque read. Just that. Just….Jason. There were other cases in the Cave, other costumes on display, but somehow, this one felt different.
Stephanie wasn’t stupid; she knew Robin’s colors well as any Gotham kid did. It was Dick’s old costume. (Stephanie knew she wasn’t even supposed to know that name; Batman had had a concussion when he’d called Nightwing by it, and they’d both been cagey with her for months afterwards.) It was the costume he’d worn before he’d grown up and become Nightwing. So why this case, with this costume, but a different name?

Summary
Everything Changes in the time it takes for Dick to pick up the phone.
Jason had been tortured by the Joker.
Dick runs back to Gotham, back in the city he grew up in to help his family heal.
And to make thing worse someone is following him.
“You didn’t come home last night.”
Dick jumps at the voice, nearly dropping the juice, surprised to see Bruce standing in the kitchen staring at him with a furrowed brow.
“Hey B.” Dick greets, setting the juice on the counter. “Are you okay? You’re not normally up yet?”
“Why didn’t you come home last night?” Bruce repeats, ignoring Dick’s question. “Did something happen?”
Dick opens his mouth, about to tell Bruce all about his run in with Tim, to ask if he’d heard anything about the Drakes recently. Then he takes a good look at Bruce and the question dies in his throat.
Dark circles carved deep into his face, scruffy unshaven face, gaunt cheeks, and worry clear in his dull eyes. Bruce had been worried about Dick, worried another son had just disappeared without a word. The guilt felt like it could swallow him whole.
“Patrol ran late.” Dick lies. “I ended up crashing at one of the safe houses.”

Summary
He was smiling as he explained his intentions for the schools, and the interviewer, Michael, had been smiling too, asking all the right questions for Bruce to expound on his answers. There was a good rapport between them, and Bruce had let himself relax slightly, his posture easing from the ram-rod straight back he had begun with to something more natural. Michael had smiled, looking down at his notepad, scribbling something with his pen as Bruce had cited lowering youth crime in the Narrows as one of the potential benefits of the schools.
“Do you think this kind of initiative could have prevented the death of your youngest son, Jason?”
It was as if all the air had been sucked out of the room.
“What?” Bruce breathed, his heartbeat pounding in his ears.

Summary
Jason is captured, tied up, and currently in the company of some people who would love to see him dead. Unfortunately for him, they seem more interested in making sure that the road to death is long and painful rather than quick. With his relationship with the rest of the Bats still less than solid he isn't seeing any help anytime soon.
This... isn't looking good.
