Redemption Lies Plainly in Truth by SilverSkiesAtMidnight
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)

Summary
Damian tries to pull his wrist out of his grasp.
Any other time, Dick would let him go without hesitation, always careful to make sure his personal space is respected.
This time, he catches his other wrist as well, gentle but firm as he crouches down to make eye contact. “Hey,” he says, smiling gently. “Do you trust me?”
Damian tilts his head, his forehead creased. “I do not understand why you are asking me this,” he says. He doesn’t pull his hands away, and that’s answer enough.

“Despite what many still think, I am only human. I don’t have super strength or speed, I'm not immortal and I certainly can't sense emotions.” Bruce said. “I have to trust that Clark won't snap my spine, that J'onn won't read my mind, I have to think ahead so that vampires can't outlast me, werewolves can't maul me and incubi won't use my emotions against me.”
Bruce sighed. “I'm human. That's the problem, not metas or supernaturals, just that.”

Summary
"Freeze! Police!"
Dropping the injured man to the pavement, three of the gang raised their hands in surrender, but a fourth ran toward the far end of the alley. Buck pursued the fleeing teen.
Chris' focus on the three remaining juveniles kept him from seeing a fifth, who bashed him from behind with a hefty board. The three that he'd been holding at gunpoint ran, but the blow had stunned him and he was powerless to stop their escape, as his attacker continued the assault. Pointed toes, probably boots, robbed air from his heaving lungs.
The sound of a weapon being fired sent a chill through him, until he realized the feet were no longer attacking, but running away.
"Buck," Chris gasped.
But it wasn't his partner's shadow shielding him from the late afternoon sun. Chris blinked at a ratty pair of sneakers. Allowing his vision to drift upwards, he took in faded and threadbare jeans. He rolled to his side and pushed himself up, continuing his scrutiny. He catalogued a plain white T-shirt, beat up leather jacket, long brown hair and blue eyes.
'Sneakers, not boots.' This wasn't his attacker. Where the hell had he come from?

Summary
"Well, Sgt. Larabee. How about you accompany our friend Vin Tanner here for a shopping trip?"
Chris stared at her a moment, surprised how things got this far so fast, and in the next second found himself nodding and reaching out to rest his hand on a very boney shoulder. It was like instinct made his body move.
"Wait, JD . . ." Vin's eyes reflected panic as they flicked between Nettie and Chris.
"Not a problem," Chris heard himself say. He felt the hardness of his face melt into a genuine smile as he drew the boy's eyes back to his own. "Got the perfect addition." He turned to call to Buck, but found his friend just a step behind and looking at him with an amused smirk. "You. Go with that one." Chris tipped his head sharply in JD's direction.

Summary
“Perhaps their consciousness have jumped tracks,” the profiler said. Seeing the puzzled looks on the faces of the others, he amended. “There is a theory that there are multiple universes where each person on earth is duplicated. Every decision a person makes or doesn’t make has repercussions. At each important juncture in the cosmos, a decision causes a break, or an alternate universe. Perhaps the blows to their heads have caused an AU to jump. Somewhere, in the grand scheme of space and time, our Vin and JD have been displaced. Hopefully, in time, they will come back to us,”

Summary
"Have you seen my Ma?" the small voice asked. "Her name is Ma," the boy said, clearly unaware his mother could have any other name.
He was barefoot; dressed in grey trousers several sizes too big for him, their frayed and torn bottoms trailing away behind him down the stairs. A grey shirt likewise too big, its frayed cuffs dangling past his hands and a black jacket that conversely was too small and had split all the way down the back seam, and was missing all but one of its buttons. His face was streaked with grime, the hair dull and uncombed. He was about to tell her his name when another boy, older and taller with blonde hair ran up the stairs.
"Where have you been?" he demanded.

Dreaming of Angels
(Barbetta Hayden):

It would have been difficult if not impossible to say who was more surprised; Captain Chris Larabee of the ATF, or the small child Chris had dead in his sights."Shit!" Chris quickly pointed his gun toward the ceiling and took a deep breath to steady his nerves. Hours spent searching the old, abandoned warehouse had left him both edgy and frustrated. "What the hell are you doing here?!"

JD stood quietly by the window staring sadly at the falling snow. Any normal five-year-old boy would have been jumping up and for joy at the sight and begging to go out and play, but JD didn't feel like playing. All he wanted with his whole heart was to go home to be with Mr. Buck and Vin and Mr. Chris.
JD turned and looked at his aunt. She was a nice lady and JD knew that she loved him, but this just wasn't home.

It was just an old hand-me-down Ford
With a three-speed on the column and a dent in the door
I'd sit up in the seat and stretch my feet out to the pedals
Smiling like a hero that just received his medal
A young boy two hands on the wheel
I can't replace the way it made me feel
And I would press that clutch
And I would keep it right
And he'd say, "a little slower son you're doing just fine"
Just a dirt road with trash on each side
But I was Mario Andretti
When daddy let me drive

Summary
The gently rocking train sang its lullaby along the tracks as it headed purposefully westward. The old conductor, making his rounds, took himself past a small car normally used for transporting the more expensive cargo, like jewelry and fancy European goods earmarked for the San Francisco shops, but on this trip it held ten passengers. Children, orphans from one of the large Eastern cities, were headed towards the promise of families.
Not every child in the car was asleep. The old man heard a tiny whisper from one of the youngsters, barely heard over the clacking of the train's wheels.
"Vin?" He listened for a moment longer, concerned that one of the orphans might be in distress, but moved on when things seemed okay.
"Yes, JD." Vin waited as patiently as his seven years would allow.
"Vin, do you think I could have a pony?" Five year old JD Dunne wriggled closer to his older cousin, trying to get comfortable.

"Respect and obedience to a higher rank was more clear-cut and ingrained in the military culture. While Gibbs tried to carry that over into his job at NCIS, it wasn't always a smooth blend with a non-military work environment. And, he realized, his lack of awareness about this had led him to a poor response in addressing it."

“A’fred?”
“Over here,” Alfred says firmly. His hand descends, clasping Tim under the arm and tugging him toward a medical berth.
And usually, Tim would insist he’s fine. Tim would pull his arm gently away from Alfred and maybe submit to a quick check up, but he’d do his best to make sure Alfred wasn’t worrying, he’d do his best to be okay.
But right now?
Tim melts.
Or, Tim is exposed to cuddle pollen during patrol...but he's fine. Right?

Summary
Bruce supposes he really really needs to have a talk with Dick.
Introducing a supposed-to-be-mythological being who “sees when you are sleeping, sees when you are awake” to a nine year old raised by the League of Assassins was an extremely questionable decision, regardless of his attempts to provide a ‘normal childhood’.
