    Summary

    At fourteen, Tim Drake is no stranger to loneliness. But when his parents die in a plane crash, and a will reveals that Bruce Wayne is his biological father, he’s dropped into a world of vigilantes, legacy, and disappointment. Bruce, caught off-guard and not ready for more family, keeps his distance.

    Tim doesn’t push. He’s used to being a shadow.

    But shadows notice things. They listen. They help. And while Bruce avoids his newest son, Alfred brings him in—gently, steadfastly, and without question. Tim finds belonging not in the Cave, but in quiet acts of care. In warm mugs of milk. In folded laundry. In the faint scent of his grandmother’s perfume still lingering in the halls.

    Bruce may not be ready yet. But Tim is already home.

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne has to do it all. He has to, because he chose this path. No one forced him to be Batman, to be the CEO that Wayne Enterprises needs, to adopt Dick Grayson and love him more everyday. No one forced him into this, really. Except that he's suffocating under the weight of it all.

    -

    In which Bruce wants to be everything to everyone, but he just cannot burden others with all of him.

    And Clark Kent is a sucker for kind eyes and has a 'I can fix him' complex.
