Summary
Peter is 100% certain his family line is cursed.
His entire life is an unstoppable chain of tests and punishments sent his way to avenge some kind of wrong-doing at a cosmic level and he doesn’t even know who or what caused it to start in the first place but he would very much like it to stop. Preferably, before he’s dead.
or
Peter accidentally gets sent to Gotham, kicks Ra's al Ghul's ass, saves Damian (multiple times) and somehow manages to unknowingly convince the batfamily he's Dick's son from the future who came back to try and stop them all from dying.

Summary
Trying to take care of a brooding, emotionally constipated billionaire is hard enough. Add far too many children and a frankly weird hobby (some would call it an obsession, young Master Richard likes to call it a passion), and even a man like Alfred can get overwhelmed pretty quickly.
So he creates some rules.
(It's a never ending list.)

Summary
Jason nestled into Roy’s side and sipped his hot chocolate as he watched the pandemonium unfold. Duke was drowning in wrapping paper as he finished opening up his last christmas present, giggling as he bumped into the tree. Damian shrieked as he was showered in Christmas baubles causing Tim to cackle at their uncharacteristically unkempt brother, which only angered Damian even more. From his chair, across the room, Bruce tried to claw back some semblance of control over the situation until it became obvious that any attempt would be frivolous.
“Is that all the presents?” Alfred asked as he made his way into the living room. “Or are there more under the tree we haven’t managed to pull out yet?”
Barbara dodged Duke’s flailing limbs as she checked the tree. “There’s nothing left under the tree. I’m surprised you managed to get all our presents under the tree in the first place.”

Summary
"Jonathan still isn’t sure this is really happening. Logically, he knows it is. Hell, he has a broken alien ship hidden in his barn and a baby in his arms to prove it but it’s still too much to process."
or
After finding an alien baby inside a spaceship in his backyard, Jonathan tries to not freak out (while getting said alien baby to sleep sometime soon). He's mostly successful.
