    Summary

    “Bruce, you would report parents like those to the police. And by the time I was with the Titans, I would too. And still, Bruce, still, I took it when you hurt me because—because I don’t know. Because maybe, somewhere along the way, I started pretending you weren’t my father.”

    "Hurt you," Jason echoes, and now his voice isn't raspy because he's pretending to be Batman. Bruce hurt Dick. The first son, the favourite, the one most like him.

    Bruce hurt him?

    "Do you still not understand what you did? What you keep doing? ‘It is what it looks like.’ Funny how I only realised it after my death, after you beat me up and sent me away from my family.”

    Dick stands up, all stiff movements. The light from outside hits him directly, and Jason realises he’s in a nightmare.

    Jason was—he was dreaming. This—this man, hunched and shaking and bleeding—cannot be Dick. His brother’s face could never be dripping with blood from his father’s fists.

    “Look. You’ve made me a victim,” Dick tells him.

    OR

    Dick finally realises Batman is an abusive piece of shit, and so do his brothers. What follows is never that simple.

    Summary

    TW: Abuse

    “I’m not asking you to make Damian give up Robin, I’m only telling you that you need to stop raising child soldiers! Is that all we are to you?! Pawns in your screwed up fucking mission? You don’t deserve to call yourself a father, in fact, you don’t even deserve to call yourself human you-!”

    Bruce’s fist makes a resounding crack! as it hits Dick’s face. He topples to the ground, and is left to stare up at Bruce while the man towers over him.

    “You have no right to have any say in how I parent my sons. Or have you forgotten that you’re not even one of them?”

    Summary

    “I trained you to live.”

    Those words echoed in his head like a ghost. Dick had to go to Spyral—forced—before he’d even begun to understand what had happened to him. Yet when he gets back he notices their hypnos commands never really left his head.
    Now, with Bruce ignoring him entirely and the silent judgment—or outright hatred—of his entire family pressing down, Dick felt the last threads of restraint fray. He was teetering on the edge of losing it entirely.

    Summary

    It started slow, usually.

    The headaches. It was the tiredness that preceded everything else — his body preparing for the onslaught of pain that’d last him for a day. Usually, he texted Bruce when a headache would take him out for the count, but… Spryal still left some untended, gaping wounds in his fragile chest, the size of Bruce’s relentless fists. Bruce didn’t know his routine, Bruce didn’t deserve to know his routine — let alone when he was at his most vulnerable.

    OR;

    Dick Grayson experiences a medical emergency without anybody knowing until it's almost too late.

    Summary

    Dick Grayson’s phone was buzzing on his nightstand. He reached over blindly, throwing his very comfortable blanket off of him in the process. The screen lit up the dark room, burning Dick’s eyes.  

    His body froze.  

    Bruce 

    The name was staring back at Dick, and he felt sick.

    Or

    Dick is back from Spyral and is not having a good time. Deathstroke makes a surprise appearance and some realizations are made.

    Summary

    Tim is mad at Dick. No, scratch that. He's furious. The guy faked his own death, after all. And then he lied. For nearly a year, he didn’t say a damn thing. Not a peep, not a syllable, not the slightest utterance, his family as dead to him as he was to them.

    Tim decided he wouldn't forgive Dick after that, but… well…

    It's hard to be mad at the guy who's crying on the floor.

    Summary

    “It’s important that we’re here for him, though.”
    Tim sighed. “Everyone keeps saying that, but is it? Dick doesn’t even know we’re here. Wouldn’t it be best to leave him alone, let him ride out these memories by himself so that we don’t have to know secrets he’d rather keep to himself?”
    ---
    Dick gets injected with a drug that makes him relive some memories he'd rather forget. All his family can do is be there for him and watch.

    Summary

    Tensions in the Batfamily are razor-sharp as Damian’s sixteenth birthday looms. Tim Drake is unraveling—haunted by memories of the brutal “test” Bruce once put him through, convinced history is about to repeat itself. His paranoia coils around him like a vice, tightening with each passing day.

    Damian feels the weight of Tim’s relentless scrutiny and bristles, his usual arrogance laced with something darker—uncertainty, maybe even fear. The unease spreads like wildfire. Dick grows wary. Jason watches from the sidelines, arms crossed, ready for a fight.

    The family fractures under the pressure, each of them sensing danger but unable to name it. Then Steph—fed up, furious—drags them all into a room and forces the truth into the open. But no one is prepared for what spills out.

    Summary

    The sound of the brush against the boot consumes the next couple of minutes, hypnotic. Dick finds he's leaned in, far closer than he'd meant to. He sighs, sits back deliberately- he's not that into Midnighter. This isn't even something he's into in the first place. He's bored. This isn't a come on. The leather's started to shine like glass. He's losing the plot of this whole thing again, staring at the shoe, at Midnighter's hands working it over. He wonders what that brush would feel like against his face, what it would feel like if Midnighter decided to work him over like that instead, to focus all of his attention on him. Midnighter holds it out for him to inspect, the movement breezing the smell of leather over his face.

    "Gorgeous," Dick says, finding he really means it. Midnighter grins at him, expression going lecherous and intent. Maybe Dick's is coming on to him, somehow. He keeps his eye roll at himself internal. This would hardly be the weirdest thing he's done in his life.

    Summary

    League meetings were already boring enough on The Watchtower. Budgeting, patrols, newer members, the junior teams. Point being, it was mindless and boring, and most everyone would rather be anywhere else. So, a distress call coming through seemed to be a blessing in disguise. Well, until they see it’s from Nightwing.
