    Summary

    Even from this distance, Jason can see the tears in Dick’s eyes. Dick stares at the back of Bruce’s head with such raw, aching betrayal that Jason’s chest burns.

    “You can’t give away someone’s name!” Jason yells.

    Summary

    “Don’t go to Ethiopia,” the boy repeats. “Please don’t go there. Don’t try to find your mom—”

    Jason stops tugging. “Wait. What do you mean by that? My mom is dead. She died of an overdose.”

    The boy gapes, only for a second, before slamming his mouth shut. “I’ve said too much.”

    “No,” Jason says, voice low in warning. “You haven’t said enough.”

    Summary

    Bruce doesn’t know what’s wrong with his child, but he’s pretty sure kids aren’t meant to work like this.

     

    From the day he had looked up into the tops of the circus tent and saw a frightened mirror image of a boy who had just experienced the worst day of his life, Bruce had instantly gone into emergency mode.

     

    The Gotham PD had wanted to pass the boy off into the care of the circus. The circus had mumbled underneath their breaths about superstitions, about not having a boy like that with them, about not being able to handle something like Dick. So GCPD, not knowing what to do, had started talking about one of the handful of overburdened boy homes that handles a majority of Gotham’s unlucky orphans.

     

    All the while, the camera lights flash bright and loud, wanting to know everything.

     

    Bruce couldn’t let that happen.

     

    Not then, not ever again.

    -🦇-

    Bruce is trying his best to protect the city that he loves. He doesn't know how exactly his Robins came to be- they're not fully human, not even at all. All he knows is that he wants to keep them safe.

    Turns out he isn’t the only one awake.
