    Summary

    In the depths of the void left by the fallen Dark Knight, two shadows met—one too young to comprehend loss, the other too old to escape it.

    Dick Grayson returned to Gotham, burdened by a responsibility he hadn't chosen. What he hadn't expected was to meet Damien, a boy with a gaze beyond his years and words harsher than his own experiences.

    Dick hadn't intended to become a father, and Damien hadn't intended to be a child again.

    Neither of them intended to be the other's family, at least not necessarily.

    But in a world intertwined with sleepless nights, cups of cocoa, and hesitant laughter, amidst morning cartoons, spilled cereal, and the occasional sword fight, they discovered that love could be born from the womb of loss,
    and that trust could be built in a language that needed no words.

    They were building something new from the ashes—something quieter, kinder, and fairer for them.

    It's a story of healing, finding a family, and a little hand learning to trust.

     

    _
    Or
    This is just Dick and Damian bonding in the sweetest and silliest way possible, that's heartwarming

    Summary

    It was four hours until the break of dawn, and while full moon was high in the sky, it’s silver gleam barely penetrated the inside of the edifice. Most of its windows were purposefully designed to keep the light out, after all. Careful not to let his footsteps echo, Batman walked past the entrance hall and the visitor center, then turned left to go to the west wing. A long, dust-encrusted corridor with tiled floors that had never lined-up properly extended before him, its cracks resembling veins from which dried up sprouts grew, and then, deprived of any nourishment, withered. Though now hollow of its utilitarian grandeur, the walls were still too tall yet too claustrophobic, their deteriorating blankness forging grotesque monsters out of peeling paint and grime. They watched him. Judged him. And they found him wanting.

    OR

    When the Batcomputer picks up on strange readings coming from the abandoned Gotham City Youth Center, Batman must go investigate.

    Summary

    Suddenly, a beeping sound cut through Dick’s anecdote.

    “Master Richard,” he said. “You’ve been with us for twenty years. Certainly you know the rules about phones at the table.”

    “Sorry, Alfred,” Dick gave the man a boyish, sheepish grin. “In my defense, that particular rule was only implemented in my last year living here. And, really, we’re already—”

    Dick stopped as his gaze fell on his phone’s screen. His eyes widened, the smile falling from his face.

    “What?” It took all of Bruce’s will power not to take the phone from Dick’s hand and get the answer himself.

    “Oswald Loomis was discovered missing from his cell in Cook County Jail about two hours ago,” Dick said.

    OR

    When a villain from Dick's past escapes prison to come after him, bonds of trust within the Bat Family are tested.

    For the prompt: I want to see Bruce come to Dick's emotional defense.[...] It's Bruce, so I expect him to be honest and straightforward to the point of being an asshole about it. I don't mind a nuance approach to the situation overall, but I don't want Bruce to be nuanced about it. He's super biased - Team Dick all the way.

    Summary

    Commissioner Jim Gordon has spent decades surviving Gotham—and the vigilantes who come with it.

    As retirement looms closer than he’d like to admit, he finds himself looking back on the Bats, the city, and the ever-rotating lineup of Robins.

    At some point along the way, he may have started keeping notes.

    Summary

    “Dick, look at me.”

    When he obeys, Dick sees a fierceness in the lines of Bruce’s jaw that wasn’t there before.

    “It wasn’t your fault. You don’t have to atone for anything today.”

    “Yes, I have to”, Dick whispers. “Yes, it was.”

    Or: A villain kidnaps the Robins on Bruce’s fortieth birthday and gives him four hours to save them. The fact that Dick still feels guilty about what happened on Bruce’s thirtieth birthday further complicates the matter.

    Summary

    Through a magic encounter gone wrong, Dick gets sent back to before he was adopted by Bruce. With no foreseeable way home, waiting on a rescue he's not sure will come. Dick has to navigate the world before Batman and Robin.

    But Dick is tested when he realises he knows what's to come in the future, and the ways his friends and family will be hurt. Should Dick meddle and potentially trap himself in the past, or stay out of it, knowing he played a hand in this loved one's pain?

    Or- A time travel fix it, where I throw canon out the window and make everyone happy (accept Dick), and everyone survives!

    Summary

    Jason knows Dick is different.

    Which is why Jason is sitting next to a gargoyle, looking over Gotham’s smoggy streets and watching the people mill about their days, and flipping his phone in his hand. He’s considering, is all. Trying to figure out what to say. Should he open with a confirmation code? With a joke? With a simple ‘hey’?

    There’s a chance that Dick won’t pick up at all, really. Jason’s burner is an entirely new number. It’s technically a New York area code, too, because no one likes to fly into Gotham on account of all the smog and Rogue attacks (not like Jason can blame them. Can you imagine how much of a fucking hassle it’d be to try and keep a whole commercial airline full of civillians safe? Not to mention that the Rogues would take ruthless advantage of a sealed location. Bleh.), so it’ll be extra unfamiliar. Dick might think he’s a spam caller.

    OR:

    Dick said Jason could always call him.

    Freshly back in Gotham, Jason tests if it's still true.

    Summary

    Dick Grayson is like a porcelain vase, teetering at the edge of a table. He's just waiting for someone to give him one last push. Except they don't, they pull him back. And it isn't the bats.

    Dickie makes some new friends, and THEN the waynes realize how awful he's had it.

    AND

    The bats find Dicks diary, and are mildly horrified to say the least. (He's been writing scary poems)

    'Bruce would never forgive him. Not like he forgave Jason. And Tim? He could never be as smart as Tim, as reliable as Tim, he would never be adopted faster than the flip of a switch.

    He could never talk to Bruce the way Steph did, never talk to Batman the way Steph did. Never be so unbothered and flippant, so secure in himself.

    He could never be like Cass, someone the Bruce actually relied on, more than that, actually listened to, and trusted. It had been so long since Bruce had listened to him.

    And, what had haunted him forever, plagued him like a poison he hated to admit. He could never be Bruce's son. '
