The Batfamily and the Three Terrors by Cdelphiki

Summary
Barely a year after Jason's resurrection, he's sent on a nearly suicidal mission to help three children escape the League of Assassins. Two are Bruce's biological kids, and one is Talia's niece, and all three are the biggest brats on the planet... according to Jason. That doesn't stop him from trying to raise them alone, and he will kill anyone who tries to hurt them. It's delicate work trying to convince him to let the Batfamily help him.
This is a compilation of stories that accompanies Jason and the Three Terrors, and is from the POV of everyone not-Jason. Fic chapters will be kept in chronological order.
1: Athanasia goes to the Manor and meets Alfred.
2: Jason and Dick went out for a midnight bike ride, while Attie was expecting Jason to come stay with her while she slept. Bruce gets home first and tries to comfort his daughter.
3: Jason told Athanasia 'no,' so she decides to go wake her Father up and ask him the same question. He'll say yes, right?Series

Summary
One moment, Jason was peacefully sleeping, perfectly content with his life with the League of Assassins. Okay, so maybe not content content, but he wasn't unhappy, either. Then Talia woke him up at 2 am, threw three children at him, and told him to get them to America and far away from Ra's al Ghul.
What the fuck.
The last thing he wanted was to see Bruce. But with three brats relying on him and no Talia, there weren't many options for sanctuary. He just didn't expect the kids to grow on him so much in two short weeks.

Summary
His entire life, Jason feared he would one day become his dad. A good-for-nothing criminal who beat on his family and ran off when he was needed most. An abusive loser, insignificant and deservingly unloved.

But then he found an orphan in crime alley, and it hit him. He was like his dad. Just not the one he feared being like.

Summary
Bruce was starting to understand the jokes about him and adopting strays. But it’s not like he ever went looking for kids to adopt. They just sort of… appeared.
Besides, the neighbor boy clearly had no one, and Bruce could not in good conscience let that assassin girl go back to parents who had treated her so badly.
If that meant Bruce adopted two more kids, so be it. It’s not like he didn’t have the room.

Summary
When Jason Todd died on that fateful April day, Bruce was tempted to just... stop. To let the world know he was Batman, and that it'd just lost a hero in Jason Todd.
And so he did.
It didn't keep him from mourning the death of his son.
Or: Bruce quits being Batman in the wake of Jason's death, tells the world who he is, then retires to Montana and slowly finds healing. And when Jason comes back to life six months later, and Talia tells him 'you remain unavenged,' he can't find any evidence to support that, so he goes home.

Summary
Damian is 14-years-old and has been living with his father for four years. In that time he's learned a lot. Most importantly, he's learned what family really means. And family most certainly did not force two members to fight each other in a battle-to-the-death to prove which one of them was worthy of their inheritance, like his grandfather was forcing he and Mara to do.
Maybe Damian should tell Mara that.

Summary
Jason Todd has been living with Bruce for two months. Jason was such a joy to have around, even if he rarely let people near him. Which was fine. Bruce was perfectly willing to let Jason adjust, and go at his speed.
But when one day Jason suddenly starts acting clingy while in public...Bruce is more than a little worried. What had even triggered it, and would Jason even tell him?

Summary
Three short months ago, Bruce brought Jason home after finding him starving, alone in an alley. Now he was doing quite well in his studies and training, but it broke Bruce's heart how much Jason seemed to expect the other shoe to drop any day. He'd never had a reason to trust the adults in his life before, so of course he was having difficulty coming to trust Bruce and Alfred.
So when Bruce came across a skittish little puppy while out on patrol, he started to wonder if adopting a puppy would help Jason out, help with his anxieties and give him the unconditional love he deserved, in a form he could tolerate. Maybe through teaching a puppy he was safe, he'd come to realize he was safe as well. It was worth a shot, and Bruce would be a gigantic liar if he said he didn't love their new puppy, too.

Summary
Jason Todd has been Red Hood for a little while, now. And sure, he was kind of an asshole to the bats, which, in all fairness, they totally deserved. But that didn't mean he was going to sit by and watch the Joker kill Robin.
And. Okay. Fine. He also didn't want Robin to die in general. Tim Drake was just a kid, after all. Too bad Tim couldn't believe the Red Hood would want to help him.

Summary
Ever since Bruce came back from being lost in time, Tim has felt a little lost, himself. There's no real place for Tim in Bruce's life, now that he has Damian living at home with him. And Tim's all emancipated, and living in his own apartment and stuff. So when he and Bruce stop talking to each other outside Batman and Red Robin, Tim just... ignores it. Because thinking about things never ends well.
But when Tim Drake gets kidnapped one day, he's forced to confront the issue. Did Bruce care enough to take a ransom demand for Tim? Was it bad that Tim wasn't sure?

Summary
While out on patrol one night, Bruce encounters a kidnapping attempt. A pretty routine night, unfortunately.
When the victim in question happens to be a 9-year-old Jason Todd, however, Bruce finds himself getting a little too attached to a child he just met. Was it okay to kidnap a child right off the street and keep him?

Summary
During a vacation to New York City, Bruce relishes the opportunity to spend a peaceful morning with Jason and Damian, without supervillains ruining everything. All it leads to is Bruce realizing what a little shit Jason is, especially when it comes to pestering his brother.
Happens during Precedent, between chapter 24 and 25. It's like a bonus chapter, that was cut for not furthering the plot.

Summary
Rain was the exact opposite of relaxing to 12-year-old Jason. All it did was remind him of all those times he had to sleep in it, shivering and soaked, with no hopes of getting dry any time soon.
Even though he was living with Bruce Wayne now, and was fairly confident in his safety there, he couldn't help but jump every time the thunder cracked or the rain picked up. At least there's another kid in the house. And a dog. So he doesn't have to spend the stormy night alone.

He called out for help.
Perhaps that's what saved his son's life.
