As Below, So Below-Below by muscovite

Summary
A mansion with an English butler traditionally has two layers: the plush lives of the owners above-stairs, and the hidden bustle of the staff below. Wayne Manor has a secret third thing.
Bruce wants to build a Batcave. Alfred cannot be incinerating the candle at both ends. He needs staff. And, difficult as it is to admit, he needs much more help than Master Bruce would possibly trust. But a butler is well used to smoothing over appearances. The owner and his increasingly large family need not know exactly how many people are paddling like mad underneath.
They need not know about the unusual ability of the admirable and lovely Ms. Kyle, either.
A fic about community, told in part through the eyes of the workers who bless this mess.
