    Summary

    At twenty years old, Jason is certain that he is a beta. He has a mature adult scent that is neither alpha nor omega so he is obviously a beta. Nobody ever presents this late in life, so obviously, his body "settled" into a beta sometime during the period of time he can’t remember.

    Jason has always been perfectly happy with this fact.

    ~◇~◇~◇~

    All of the Bats know that Jason is a beta. Or at least that's what Dick thought.

    When he hears the sounds of someone entering his apartment through the window, followed immediately by the unmistakable thump of a body hitting the floor, he rushes into his living room only to be hit by a tidal wave of scent. It's sweet, warm, and spicy the way hot cinnamon is but also fresh and earthy like a fragrant tree. Heightening that is the dark, heady scent of heat.The scent is so thick in the room, Dick would swear the pheromones hang in the air like a heavy mist.

    Summary

    He turned back to look upwards, at the sky and the peak of the mountains, the mood slightly soured but as Dick reached for him, Bruce decided it wasn't all that bad. He picked him up and pulled him over the table so that the boy could curl up in his lap instead of the wooden chair.

    'Can we stay out here? I don't wanna miss the stars.' Dick asked and Bruce found himself nodding without even really thinking about it.

    Because as it was.....Bruce was finding out more and more just how much he'd do to keep this precious child happy and safe.

    This is just a sweet fic of a collection of father/ son moments vacationing in remote beautiful villiages and Bruce both admiring Dick and how much he cared for him and panicking over his parenting skills

    Summary

    TW: Abuse

    “I’m not asking you to make Damian give up Robin, I’m only telling you that you need to stop raising child soldiers! Is that all we are to you?! Pawns in your screwed up fucking mission? You don’t deserve to call yourself a father, in fact, you don’t even deserve to call yourself human you-!”

    Bruce’s fist makes a resounding crack! as it hits Dick’s face. He topples to the ground, and is left to stare up at Bruce while the man towers over him.

    “You have no right to have any say in how I parent my sons. Or have you forgotten that you’re not even one of them?”

    Summary

    It's been a year since Tim came back to Gotham after his trip around the world to save Bruce. When he goes missing, Dick takes a look into his laptop looking for clues, and instead finds something that will shatter everything he knew about himself and his relationship to his estranged brother. Carefully constructed lies to protect himself are brutally smashed to pieces by the video he finds and he wonders if he can ever make up for all the ways in which he hurt Tim.

    Summary

    What if Jason actually stayed as competent as he was in Lost Days and Under the Hood, and actually reacted to his (ex-)dad slicing his neck open?
    What if Bruce actually got taken to task (eventually) for being abusive?
    What if people actually decided to talk to each other, and listened to what the other person was saying?

     

    (What if I decided that the narrative would be on Jason's side as much as DC's narrative is on Batman's)
    (Also, the series is only called Alley Business because I wrote that one first)

    Incomplete (and the total word count is half of what it says - the chronological order fic doubles it)

    Summary

    Death has always followed Dick Grayson, so when the final blade falls, he welcomes it—abandoned by his family, swallowed by loneliness, and convinced this is how his story was always meant to end.

    But then he wakes up. Alone, in a Gotham that doesn’t recognize him.
    In a world where Dick Grayson never existed.

    Now, eight years in the past, with his memories intact and no name to anchor him, he has a second chance:
    To save the people he loves.
    To fix the mistakes that tore them apart.
    And maybe—if the universe allows—to find his way back home.

    Summary

    "There’s an ache in his chest, deep and all-consuming. 

     

    Dick knows pain. It’s evidenced by the marks on his skin, the scars that litter his body. He’s been trained to withstand pain. To bear it. To hold out until rescue or until the inevitable opening for escape makes itself known. He’s held out under torture for longer than what should be humanly possible. He’s been broken, bruised, torn open, and mended time and time again. Gotten up even when he shouldn’t be able to, unwavering and unyielding. His years spent moonlighting as a vigilante has built up his pain tolerance to an unscalable level. He’s triumphed over so much. So much hurt, anguish, and grief. So, so much grief. 

     

    And it’s the grief that’s most prominent. That gnawing emptiness that expands and expands, never being filled. Grief weights on him, an ever-constant companion in his life. 

    Dick is used to pain. 

    So why does it hurt this much?"
