    The One Where the Justice League Almost Didn’t Figure it Out by

    Summary

    “I can vouch for him,” Cyborg said, sitting up straighter. “We’ve worked together before. I can’t promise he’d want the job though. He works out of Bludhaven, last I checked.”

    Dinah perked up from where she was slumped against the table next to Oliver. “That’s next to Gotham. Batman, what do you know?”

    All eyes immediately turned to where Batman sat with his arms crossed, looking impassive as always. There was a long moment of silence and the corners of Batman’s mouth turned ever so slightly downward. Finally, in a flat tone of voice that gave no more away than his face ever did, he said, “He’s… well trained. Fast. Could be useful.”

    ...

    Also known as, the League eventually figured out that Nightwing is Batman's son, but it takes a while.

    Summary

    Robin seemed to take that as his cue, crawling back out of the cape. He ignored Rachel’s horrified noise, sticking his toes between the top of Batman’s tool belt and the Kevlar beneath. A quick, twisting jump, and he was perched on one of Bruce’s shoulders.

    “Lying’s illegal, you know, Miss Caspian.” He pulled a knee up, rested his chin on it.

    She was staring at him, mouth open.

    “What— no it’s— who are you??”

    “Robin.”

    She turned her accusing glare on Batman.

    “What the hell?”

    “This is Robin.”

     

    Or; The Batman gets a robin and they gradually evolve together.

    Summary

    “I’ve been going on missions,” he says defensively.

    “Yeah?” Jason raises a judgemental eyebrow through the mask. “Any of those missions not include your new boy toy?”

    Dick scowls, caught out. “What does it matter?”

    Jason pushes himself off of the wall and stretches with strategic lethargy. “Look, take it from a guy who came back from the dead too.” Dick flinches, but Jason barrels on. “The longer you keep him to yourself—away from everyone else—the longer it’ll take for him to process that life moved on without him.”

    (Or: When Wally returns from the dead, their relationship is not as easy to navigate as Dick hoped it would be.)

    Summary

    Someone pulls the blindfold off his eyes and Wally feels completely justified in grinning once he sees Dick, nothing but bright blue eyes and messy hair. “Hey,” he says, feeling giddy in a way he hadn't expected, but that might just be the whole ‘thought I'd never see my friends and family again’ thing.

    Dick doesn't grin back and that's almost the weirdest thing that's happened to him today, considering the world had almost ended.

    Then, Dick backs up and stands next to Wally West, so he was definitely wrong, because nothing can top this.
