Not literally, but that might just change whenever he managed to figure out just who fucked around with the time stream and erased one of his baby brothers….

Summary
“I’d like to report a kidnapping,” Jason said, looking Bruce dead in the eyes.
Bruce tensed and straightened fully, ready to spring into action. “Who?”
“My brother.”
No— “But Damian’s supposed to be at school, they should have called me,” he sputtered out, his mind frantically racing as he tried to figure out if it was likely one of the faculty or staff at Gotham Academy might have been bribed into covering up his son going missing off of campus. “Wait, is it Dick? I was just texting with him, he was at work, so I’m not sure how—”
“Dickiebird and the gremlin are both fine,” Jason said, rolling his eyes. “Nah, I was talking about my other brother.”
Bruce blinked slowly, the brief flare of visceral fear fading away into an anxiously-tinged confusion. “Jaylad… you don’t… have another brother?”OR
Tim Drake time traveled his way out of joining the Batfamily, for the greater good of course. Unfortunately, his plans to angst off into a lonely future where everyone is 'better off' go awry when Jason Todd recovers his original memories and he's not as grateful to Tim for saving his life as Tim would have thought.

Summary
Tim wasn’t sure just how he had managed to go from having everything completely under control and according to plan to being locked in a holding cell in the motherfucking Batcave while all of his secrets were slowly unspooled around him in a single afternoon. Well, he knew how—happy, protected Jason-who-had-no-clue-who-Tim-was had suddenly gotten all of the memories of angry, overprotective Big-Brother-Red-Hood-Jason and had proceeded to kidnap him, just because he was apparently a ‘hazard to himself and reality’. But it had all happened so quickly that he was having trouble wrapping his mind around this new complication.
“You know, I’d finally gotten used to being an only child again."

If We're Only Ever Looking Back, We Will Drive Ourselves Insane by Megaerakles

Summary
Dick had come into Bruce’s life like a whirlwind. Finding Jason had been like getting struck by lightning. Cassandra had crept up on him like a fog rolling in. Learning about Damian had been a cloudburst of emotion. But Tim…
Timothy Drake was an earthquake who had shaken something foundational in Bruce’s heart, and he was still reeling too badly from the initial tremors to even brace himself for the inevitable aftershocks, let alone try to assess the extent of the damage he’d just been dealt.

Summary
Kon had a good life. A great life, actually, considering where it had started (a test tube in a lab funded by a supervillain, which was admittedly not hard to beat but still). He went to high school, he lived with his dad (Superman!) and his mom (badass reporter Lois Lane!) and his annoying but adorable younger brother, he spent every other weekend at his grandparents farm in Kansas, and he was also a well respected member of the Teen Titans. Yes, anyone who took a look at his life would say it was a good one. Full of family, friends, fun, privilege, and not to mention superpowers. From an objective standpoint, his life was complete.
So why could he never shake the feeling that something was missing?
