    Summary

    “Timothy and his partner will be taking care of you from now on.” Janet Drake addresses the now-sleeping baby in Talia’s arms as though perfectly convinced she will somehow both absorb and understand what the woman is saying.

    Watching this, I’m suddenly understanding a lot more about my childhood.

    “The fuck is goin’ on here? Jesus fuckin’ Christ, don’t tell me we got a kid now, Prettyboy. I just stopped on the way home to pick up the damn groceries. I was not gone long enough for you to somehow conceive and gestate our child.”

    Summary

    Tim closes his eyes, calculating. Based on the energy involved for a one week reset, he’s looking at a minimum displacement of about five years for the copy. His eyes sting as he fully grasps that if this works, one Tim will get to reunite with his friends and family, hold them and speak to them again, and work together to unleash all the contingencies and strategies he’s come up with to kick those invading alien assholes the fuck out, and the other Tim, the copy… won’t. He’ll wake up somewhen, isolated and traumatized, without friends, family, or any allies at all.

    Well, shit. Whatever, at least Other Tim will know it worked. And he’s never minded the idea of sacrificing himself to save others. He confirms the calibration of the device, and pushes the big red button. Of fucking course there’s a big red button, supervillains are so predictable.

    His last thought as the lights explode in his head and he tastes color is I hope computers are a thing whenever Other Tim lands. I’d hate to be put on trial for witchcraft. Fuck it, if I overshoot I’m gonna ride a goddamn dinosaur. Hell. Yes.

    Summary

    "How are you boys enjoying the party?" a deep, friendly voice says from behind them.

    "We're enjoying it very much, Mr. Kent," Dick says smoothly, putting a hand on his brother's shoulder.

    "It's boring," Jason mutters.

    Clark laughs. His light blue eyes sparkle. God, Dick could look into those eyes for— Nope, not the time for that. He focuses on keeping his smile affable and his posture relaxed. Open. Approachable.

    Clark's eyes fall on the now near-empty champagne flute in Dick's other hand. "Aren't you a little young for that?" he chastises lightly, brow furrowing. Such a boy scout. A boy scout he'd love to climb like a tree—

    Dick grins. "Guilty," he laughs, tipping back the rest and dropping the empty glass on a passing server's tray. "You'll keep this between us, won't you Mr. Kent? A little secret… between friends." And, fuck, his cheeks flush. Just the slightest bit. Remembering that New Year's banquet in Gotham a few months before—

    Summary

    "Calling all back to the Cave after tonight's patrol. This is non-negotiable." Oracle's distorted voice rang out through Nightwing's comms.

    "O, you know I have to get back to 'Haven asap,"

    "Non-negotiable, Nightwing. It's about Red Robin."

    "What about him?"

    "I have something you should see. He will not be present."
    Or:
    Barbara hacks into the camera on Tim's mask and discovers a new development in the man's life, and decides to show the rest. Dick is surprised to see Ra's pop up on screen, but what is even more surprising is how tender the man is.
