    Summary

    NOTE: THIS FIC IS NOT ABANDONED. PLEASE STOP SAYING IT IS. It's on hiatus. Not abandoned. I'm just very slow sometimes and also this series has a tendency to bring up emotional issues for me that I need to take a break from on occasion. No story is abandoned unless the author says it is. People have lives, remember? Stuff happens. Chapter 24 and beyond is still in progress.

    ---

    Would it really be a year in Tim's life if it didn't have at least one kidnapping, new sibling, spontaneous road trip, or world-ending threat? (Or, maybe, just to spice things up—how about all of the above?)

    It's Damian's turn to join the Wayne family, through a wild set of circumstances that, really...is pretty normal for them at this point. Ra's schemes, Bruce worries, the kids cause loving chaos, and things somehow, as always, tend to work out in the end.

    Summary

    Dick contemplates what Damian means to him, and what their relationship really is. He doesn't understand why Bruce is held to the regard he is in Damian's mind, and why it means so much to Dick that Damian's happy. Dick also thinks about Bruce, and how he fits into the puzzle that Dick calls their life.

    Or, in other words: Five times that Damian called Dick his dad, and the one time that he did it on purpose.

    Summary

    “I’m actually retired?” Wally replied, though it sounded more like a question.

    “How the hell did you end up here then?” Garth asked, quirking a brow. “Just ran too fast on your morning run?”

    “No, there was a world-threatening device that could only be stopped by speedsters,” Wally huffed.

    Or: Wally West saves the day, only to end up in a different universe. Wow, who knew his and Dick's counterparts were roommates? Spoiler: they're much more than that.

    Summary

    He wasn’t even there, and Damian wasn’t sure why he was surprised. Even when he’d hesitantly extended the invitation, he’d known better than to count it as a sure thing. It wasn’t like the nature of his father’s job didn’t result in it’s fair share of unpredictable emergencies. It was just that if one had come up, he would likely have been called in to assist as Robin. So when Bruce didn’t show, he’d waited eagerly for the alert, already planning his excuses.

    The makeshift gallery was nearly empty of families now, and Damian was fiercely avoiding coming to terms with the fact that his father had just decided not to come.
