Summary
“Can I help you?” Hal asks after he catches the man staring again.
He'd been right to think the man hadn't been entirely adverse to catching Hal's attention, since he doesn't seem embarrassed at being noticed, almost like he was being the least bit inconspicuous on purpose.
“Sorry,” the stranger says, hardly apologetic at all, “You… look like someone I know.”
Hal snorts, “Must be one handsome fellow,” he jokes with a shrug, knowing being vain is only charming if it's true.
It seems to work, since the man's indifferent expression falters, the corner of his mouth twitching in amusement as he hums deeply. Maybe it's just a trick of the light, but his baby blues seem to twinkle mischievously, “Some would say so.”
(Hal meets a guy in an expensive suit who has a thing for chilli dogs.)

Summary
As the door opened Tim quickly disabled another three separate electronic sensors in the doorjamb by swiping them with a device that looked a bit like a thumb drive. “Walk where I walk,” he said.
He took a big step over the doormat, eyed the floor carefully, then took a careful skipped sidestep to another mat against the right-hand wall, where he removed his shoes.
“What the hell?” whispered Jason, still standing in the open doorway.
Tim pointed up. There was a net rigged up on the ceiling. “Pressure pads under the carpet.”
“I repeat, what the hell?”
After Tim completely derails Jason’s beatdown attempt by asking him for a hug, Jason’s first priority is to get this touch-starved kid more cuddles. Tim’s first priority is to avoid Dick’s traps.
Jason learns a lot about his brothers and what happened while he was away, and something about himself too.

Summary
It was something like an open secret in Gotham, that even though all it’s heroes were open to help no matter the situation, each one of them had a special affinity to certain matters.
For example, children from all districts knew to yell for Nightwing if they found themselves lost and scared. Small business owners often painted little Oracle symbols on their doorsteps, to warn away possible thieves with the knowledge that Gotham’s cryptic hacker had their eye on them. Working girls would send a quick prayer to the Red Hood before seeing their seediest clients; and as such, knew who to call for if things took a turn for the worst.
And Red Robin… well. His was a very specific bunch.
