    Summary

    The story behind these lines from There’s a Bird in the Alleyway

    “[T]he working girls who saved your life said you’ve done some stuff to help them out. Your gentlemanly ways are impressing them.”

    “I don’t know if punching a creep in the face counts as being gentlemanly.”

    Or, Nightwing accidentally earns the trust of Bludhaven's working girls by being “polite and smiley.”

    Summary

    Maybe Tim should have stayed in Paris like he had promised Bruce.

    Maybe he shouldn’t have followed Shiva when he knew that she could snap his neck in a heartbeat.

    Maybe he should’ve hightailed it out of Nanda Parbat by the time he realized he was in the demon’s den, and its claws were sinking in.

    Once a small boy in an empty bedroom shoved a knife to his throat, looking equal parts righteous and frightened, though, there was no chance Tim was running away. Not when he had too much to prove - and everything to protect.

    Summary

    It started slowly. Just little things, like Dad Don making a face about mushrooms in his food, when he’d previously loved them. Or Mom Oshi’s disinterest in the little window planter that she and Dad and now Uncle Ish and her maintained, when gardening was one of the things Anita remembered about her mother clearly. Things like that changed with time – lots of little kids changed their minds on these things as they grew up and this would be no different, Anita told herself. This was totally fine and normal.

    Or: Anita reckons with the inherent weirdness of watching her parents grow up, and whether they'll ever be the people she remembers. Fortunately, she doesn't have to do so alone.

    Summary

    Dick is on the chandelier.

    An eight year old. A genius gymnast, to be sure, but a child, small for his age and under Bruce’s legal care. On the chandelier. Twenty five feet above the ground, surrounded by glass and kept up by a single fifty-year-old chain bolted to the ceiling.

    Bruce is going to have to check his blood pressure after Dick is safe on the ground.
