    Summary

    There are 5 steps to a long con:

    1. Foundation work: Preparations are made in advance of the game, including the hiring of any assistants required and studying the background knowledge needed for the role.

    2. Approach: The victim is approached or contacted.

    3. Build-up: The victim is given an opportunity to profit from participating in a scheme. The victim's greed is encouraged, such that their rational judgment of the situation might be impaired.

    4. Pay-off or convincer: The victim receives a small payout as a demonstration of the scheme's purported effectiveness. This may be a real amount of money or faked in some way. In a gambling con, the victim is allowed to win several small bets. In a stock market con, the victim is given fake dividends.

    5. The “Hurrah”: A sudden manufactured crisis or change of events forces the victim to act or make a decision immediately. This is the point at which the con succeeds or fails.

    Hal is adamant that he's not going to spend Bruce's money. Bruce intends to change his mind about that. (A sort-of 5+1 fic)

    Summary

    Where Bruce Wayne goes, models follow. It's almost a joke, the way he wears them like watches, girls too young for him hanging off his arms. It's a wonder he can even tell them apart.

    Summary

    When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.

    Because the "call Batman when you're in trouble" rule only applies when he's Robin, right?
