Summary
“If I can free you from the contract, you can take me with you to the human world. You have to take me with you, otherwise I won't help you."
“Do you think I would leave you behind?”
“You just said you thought I was fae. There is no solid basis for trust,” the child snorted. “I have nothing against you, I know you're a hero and all. But it's better to be foresight."
Bruce nodded. It made perfect sense to him.
“I'll take you with me…”
“You must swear by your real name,” the kid interrupted. “Names have power here. Even if you're not fae. Swear that you will take me back, and I will help you. “
“You ask a lot of me.”
“Your secret identity is the least of your problems right now, don't you think?”
That was a great point.
[A few months after Jason's death, Bruce is kidnapped to marry the Unseelie Queen. In a court full of vipers, his only ally is a child he can't help but grow fond of]

Summary
Stuck in a time loop, Tim is forced to ask for help.
But it looks like Batman needs a hand too.
-------------
Mr. Wayne's voice croaked, "Who are you?"
“Um…my name is Tim, sir. I'm the son of Jack and Janet Drake, I live next door."
Silence again. He looked to Alfred for instructions, but the butler wasn't helpful, too upset to do anything.
“You're new. You weren't there before."
Tim's eyes widened, “Mr. Wa… um, Batman, this isn't the first time you've experienced this day, is it?”
“How do you know?”
"How many times?" Tim asked instead of answering.
"This must be at least the 10th time."
So Tim wasn't the only one. Mr. Wayne was also stuck in the time loop.

Summary
"Jason, where are the babies from?"
The young man spat out the orange juice he was drinking, and coughed.
He looked at the child with terror in his eyes, "Why are you asking me?"
Wasn't a little too young at six to ask those kinds of questions?
Wasn't it Bruce's job (no, better Alfred, Jason didn't want to traumatize Tim) to explain it?
"You brought Damian here. Where did you get him from?"
