    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.

    Summary

    It's supposed to be simple: Obi writes her letters, and Shirayuki sends his decrypted reports onto Wistal. Nothing out of the ordinary, nothing scandalous.

    She should have known better, really.

    Summary

    Hinata finds that he likes standing close to Kageyama on buses and trains. It doesn't mean anything--probably. Maybe.

    Summary

    “Oh, thank god, Bruce—”
    “Richard,” Batman attempted to cut in, stonefaced.
    “—Alf’s gone and Dami’s fever is going up and he’s coughing—”
    “Richard,” Batman repeated, firmer.
    “—and it sounds so bad. So. Bad. He had a fit that made him throw up—”
    “Code alibi,” Batman said, his scowl flickering for a moment. The man on screen stiffened as he turned to look at the camera. He paled immediately, blue eyes wide.

     

    Batman's brood accidentally begin to chip away at the mask he wears around the Leaguers.

    Summary

    "Something was irritating.

    Well, for Kei Tsukishima most things in life were pretty irritating, but this particular thing, that had been weighing on him for the longest time, was just about enough to make him snap."

    ((Or, Yamaguchi gets Tsukishima to watch this sports' drama he's been really into lately, and that somehow leads to the most heated summer of Tsukishima's life.))
