    Summary

    It was only a matter of time before CPS crossed the threshold of Wayne Manor. It comes as a surprise to no one that a bachelor billionaire, a British butler, and a circus kid doesn’t check all the boxes.

    He knew he didn't deserve kids…especially not a kid like Dick, who was quickly proving to be the most selfless being Bruce had ever encountered. He didn't deserve it, and yet he found himself wanting. Bruce liked this. Dick had put new air into his and Alfred's lungs. What would he do if CPS found him unfit? What would happen to Dick?

    "Fortunately, he has the city's most ardent defender at his beck and call," Alfred said evenly, a kind raise of his brow softening the dry sarcasm.

    Stunning characterization of baby dick! Bruce and Alfred are good as well, but Dick is the star of the show.

    Summary

    Batman continued, "My son. His name is Dick"— stupid name, Jason thought—"and he might be in the cave when we arrive. You may find his appearance and speech… unsettling, but he's not a threat. If he bothers you, I will tell him to leave."

    In fairness, Jason did remember Batman talking about his son. Something about how it made him some expert foster parent or something, which was, frankly, a funny thing to brag about while actively shoving the child you’re kidnapping into the back of your car.

    -

    Or, Jason Todd meets former Talon Dick Grayson against his will. It's hardly his fault when Dick (temporarily) dies.

    Summary

    Tim’s been watching Batman and Robin for a while, okay? He understands what crime is. But then Batman turns a guy over to the police for reasons Tim doesn’t understand at all. It’s not a crime to hit your kids so they know what they did wrong, right? So Tim asks Batman about it. And, well, to say it quickly goes sideways is an understatement, AKA, what will later be referred to as “that time Tim tried blackmailing Batman to not call Child Protective Services.”
