Summary
Hal Jordan was many things, but a parent was certainly not one of them. But when there's a runaway, semi-traumatized miniature assassin living in his house, he really doesn't have a choice.
Or
Arguments were not uncommon in the Wayne Manor. Neither was the occasional radio silence from one of Bruce's kids. But this...this was different. They always came back, always called. But Damian was nowhere to be seen, nowhere to be found. Not to mention, he'd cleaned out his entire bedroom.
Whether he'd intended to or not, Bruce had driven a deeper wedge between he and his son than before. And now, he'll do anything he can to fix it. Even if it means treating Hal Jordan, the one person in the world Damian seems to respect, with some form of dignity.

Summary
It’s like static in his throat that he can’t turn off. Heavy grief evaporating his words. Everywhere he goes, cameras and pitying eyes follow.
Words have power, and he lost his.OR, snapshots of Bruce's life with selective/situational mutism after his parents died.
[Edit] I'm really sorry, but I'm going to rewrite this. I want this to explore Bruce's arc, grief and SM, and it's just too fast and I think I'm missing a lot of important details on serious topics.
Not sure how long it's gonna be to get this done, so, sorry about this again.
Thank you to everyone who's followed this so far, I really appreciate all of you. -

Summary
“Now your favorite part,” Jerry said, trying to keep things light. He pulled the blindfold from his pocket, “Stop me when it gets too tight.”
Wayne bent his head forward, letting Jerry drape the blindfold across his eyes. Not a single Fifty Shades of Grey joke was made, which was an improvement over last time. Jimmy still blushed when it was brought up.
or, the one where Bruce Wayne keeps getting kidnapped, and Brucie starts growing on his kidnappers.
