A Room Full of Ashes by Hurry_Kane

Summary
It had never been a secret, at least not within the four walls of what had once been their home. His mother never bothered to hide the truth, his father never bothered to hide what had really happened, everyone was at peace and there was an implicit agreement not to talk about it anymore after the first and only time they had a conversation. For Tim his life did not revolve around that secret, but he knew that sooner or later it would take its toll. After all, the fact that his biological father is Bruce Wayne was not something he could hide forever.
His perfect life - a lie - comes crashing down when Bruce calls for an urgent meeting and Tim's blood runs cold. Because somehow -a work of fate or perhaps a mockery for all the times Tim has cheated and evaded death- they have found nothing of his crimes of the past year; but what they have found is the body of The Widower and a bloody blade; blood that belongs to Red Robin, blood that sets off genetic marker alerts in the computer of the Watchtower; blood that makes Bruce believe that there is another of his sons out there and he will not stop until he finds him without knowing he is sitting right there in front of him.

Summary
Conner had a pretty good life, all things considered. He wouldn't necessarily call it a great life, but it was good enough.
Sure, living alone at Mount Justice with only a robot for company could get lonely sometimes, but he had his independence, his freedom from Lex, and his teammates on Young Justice.Unfortunately, no matter how content he was with his life, he could never quite shake the way he ached for Superman's approval. The way his insides twisted when his mistakes were met with harsh words and punishing hands. The way jealousy sunk its claws in deep every time he had to watch Superman and Jon interact. Still, he had a pretty good life, and that was all he needed.
But when an accident ends with Conner being thrown through a wall and Superman learning that his clone isn't quite as tough as he seems, that pretty good life comes crashing down around his shoulders. Superman insists these changes are for the best, that he's trying to make amends and help, but Conner isn't so sure. Not that anybody ever seemed to care what he thought.
At least Jon had a pretty cool video game collection. Maybe living with the Kents wouldn't be so bad.

Summary
Jason Todd dies, cradled in the arms of a man who had already seen too much death, and something in Batman breaks. His youngest of five children, in a coffin that should have held himself instead.
Therefore, when freshly orphaned Dick Grayson arrives at the gates of Wayne Manor, it is to a bleak and still in mourning family. He is not even given enough time to unpack his meagre set of belongings before he’s packing them again and is shipped off to a boarding school halfway across the globe.
And another one.
And then another.
And so on and so forth.
By the time he’s sixteen, he runs away from the worst of the lot, sick of being shafted off from place-to-place like an unwanted stray. Somehow, in his lowest moment, he catches the eye of a strange one-eyed mercenary, who presents him with an offer too good to refuse.

Summary
“This is where I take nutritional breaks and sleep. I have training scheduled in 24 minutes,” he explains, a little uncertain.
“Oh,” she adds, an automatic vocal filler that often gets interviewees to continue.
“Of course, if you need anything done now, I’ll do it,” he adds, with just a slight undercurrent of a rush.
His face may be smooth, his tone blandly professional, but this boy is terrified.

Summary
Weapons–people trained from a young age to act as a tool wielded by an organization–are not uncommon in the criminal underworld. A good Weapon is strong, obedient, and efficient. A great Weapon is reliable, smart, and loyal.

(Together, they're also brothers.)
—
With Tim hiding behind his Weapon persona, Damian refusing to let the others in, Jason struggling with his Pit rage, and Dick slowly unraveling, it’s not an easy journey- but alone, it would be impossible.
This is where it begins.

Summary
Superman hates Conner. He's never said as much, but his constant criticism of his clone after missions speaks for itself.
Conner doesn't hate Superman, he just wants to stop being terrified of him, but that's just how it's been since the League pulled him from Cadmus four months ago. By October, Tim Drake has had enough and sics Batman on the Man of Steel to get him to ease up on his teammate.
Clark hasn't been helping Superboy be a better hero. He doesn't know him at all. When he promises Conner things will be different, it takes Conner a while to believe him.
Is 365 days enough time to change so much?

Summary
When Batman actually laughs at something Nightwing says, the Justice League knows something's up. Hal's investigation reveals the impossible truth: Batman and his growing family aren't human vigilantes—they're bat demons, one of Earth's most ancient and now endangered species. As Bruce undergoes a difficult emergence process, the League gets their first invitation to the hidden Colony beneath Gotham, where they'll meet the intimidating Patriarch Thomas Wayne and discover just how little they knew about their dark teammate. Some secrets were meant to be shared, even if they come with wings and glowing eyes.
Directly inspired by the two stories attached to this fic! I cannot recommend them enough.
