Summary
His apartment was clean. Nobody had fiddled with any lock, the doors and windows perfectly intact, the security system running smoothly. His bloodwork had shown no diversions from the norm either, and after searching for two hours – Nightwing would have to wait today – all he found was a pair of socks he had searched for a week ago.
No bugs. No trip wires. No hidden cameras.
Or: Weird things start happening around Dick - he forgets things, finds others in weird places, startles because of shadows... but things have to get worse, before they can start getting better. And, oh, they get bad.

Summary
It was Dick who'd taken up the Cowl after Bruce had died. It was Dick who'd become Batman, taking Damian, Tim, and Alfred with him to the penthouse for a fresh start.
But things could never be that easy. All of them were haunted by sorrow: Tim not capable of believing that his second father was gone as well, Dick almost breaking under the pressure of standing tall in the face of a crisis, Damian uncomfortable and lost in these unfamiliar waters he was forced to navigate, and Alfred mourning yet another child.Or: In a world in which Bruce actually died, becoming a family again is harder than some might think. In the midst of fights, the racist white Gotham High Society, and Tim, who fled the nest in a last attempt to resurrect something that no longer exists, it is hard to find hope, and yet all of them somehow manage to do so anyways.

Summary
Slade hadn’t done much in the days since Dick’s capture, mostly parading around, probably thinking about the best ways to punish this funky little hero that was currently in his care. He had given him a bloody lip and some aching bruises, but Dick knew that this was only the beginning. Both of them were aware of the fact that this wouldn’t be permanent, that sooner rather than later Batman would show up to free Nightwing, and Slade would have to move his secret super-villain villa somewhere else.
So, Slade would have to find something mean and painful soon, and Dick would have to endure it.Or: Dick gets captured by Slade - at this point this is almost routine for the two of them - but Dick could have done without the whipping.

Or: During a hectic patrol after an Arkham outbreak, Dick gets hit by an unknown substance that steals his breath away. Damian, Jason, Tim, and Cass are doing their best to safe him.

Summary
But Luthor was using his confusion and before Dick could react, Luthor’s ring was pressed against his cheek. Honestly? Dick had expected a hit or a slap, but instead of pain, a numb sensation radiated through his face, down his body.
“What have you… do-done?”
His voice was already slurring, and Dick could do nothing to stop his body from reacting in trained precision. His muscles tensed, his heartbeat slowed, and his breath came in calm bursts… not that it helped much, whatever Luthor had given him more than just fast acting.Or: Dick gets caught searching through Lex Corp files during a gala by none other than Lex Luthor himself. And the man has a special form of blackmail and punishment planned.
