Summary
Dick saw it happen too late.
Tim’s staff swung toward Bruce’s ribs. Bruce turned to catch it, but Jason lunged at the same moment, tackling him sideways. Bruce lost footing near the edge of the platform stairs.
“Bruce—!”(Bruce and his kids argue after patrol things take a bad turn)

Summary
something something bruce offhandedly mentions being autistic and it's like a record scratches as his kids turn to him with expressions varying from "how the fuck did i not know" to "why the fuck did you not tell me." there's the beginnings of an argument because, well, it would've made communication a lot EASIER if they knew.
Excerpt:
"They called you autistic to your- Bruce, did no one do anything??" Dick asked. He was very aware of the kind of bullying a newly-orphaned kid might receive, but it had never been anything like that."It was the 80s, they used the more outdated term. And they were right, so what was there to report?" Bruce shrugged.

Summary
They found Batman on a rooftop in the Bowery, staring at the sky as if waiting for the Bat-Signal, silent, without Robin or Batgirl nearby.
You ruin everything you touch. You're cursed, Bruce, and if I don't do something, you'll bury more Robins for your crusade .
He'd said those words, hadn't he? He'd been so blinded by rage that he didn't care about the pain he was causing—and he'd thought, what right did Bruce have to be hurt? It was his fault, he had to pay—that he didn't think about the consequences.
Damian wasn't the type to be pushed aside, not even when his father asked him to. But maybe there wasn't much choice, especially if the CPS had already been involved by Oliver…
“Batman…”
Diana was the one who approached Batman first, her lasso glowing in her hand. “We are sorry.”
A long pause. Then a dry, guttural sound escaped the Bat. A cruel chuckle, so full of rage it was waiting to spill out like a raging river.
"Is that all? After all the shit you threw at him, you're coming after him with your tail between your legs?," the Bat said, angry and Clark's eyes widened.
That wasn’t Bruce.

Summary
The evidence is undeniable.
Bruce Wayne has done something unforgivable.
At least, that’s what everyone believes.
By the time the truth comes out, Bruce has already spent months alone, abandoned by the people he loves most.
The Batfamily returns to Wayne Manor ready to apologize.
They’re too late.
Or: Bruce dies, everyone gets traumatized, and then Jason Todd has a terrible idea involving a Lazarus Pit.

Summary
Verso doesn’t bother knocking as he lets himself into Gustave’s workshop. He, the apprentices, Lune, Sciel, and Emma are the only ones allowed to bother Gustave when he's dans l’atelier with the door closed, as close to KEEP OUT as Gustave ever gets. It’s not a privilege Verso takes advantage of lightly, but the weather developing outside the Dome—weather that’s been brewing since before dawn—has him leaning on it now.
Or: Verso helps Gustave forge through a migraine--he's something of an expert at it by now, and he's not sure what that says about him. (Just hurt/comfort and Verso having Verso feelings.)
