Summary
“Dad! Bruce, please! Please help me!” sobbed the voice. The teenager’s voice. Not a kid’s anymore, but not yet a man's voice. “Dad, I’m scared!”
Batman… Bruce… Bruce couldn’t. He pulled out the comm, throwing it as far as possible.(Or the sensor in Bruce's son's grave detects something. Mic in his coffin detects something. Bruce knows better than to believe that.)

Summary
There, with a face not showing any emotions, was the girl - Cassandra. She was sitting by the coffee table, with a crayon in her left hand. She was characteristically Asian, her long, thick hair was tied into a ponytail.
(...)
“Cassie,” Stephanie said, making the little girl’s (...) giant eyes look at her. “This is Jason. He’s my friend’s younger brother. I’m counting on you to make him feel welcome and to have fun with him, okay? And no fighting!”
Cassandra continued to stare at her, with no indication she even heard Stephanie. She glanced at Jason for a moment, but there was no expression whatsoever on her face.(Or Jason makes a friend his age!)

Summary
“Have you always read this much?” Tim asked with interest.
Jason shrugged, faking nonchalance, but his freckled face got redder like always when someone took interest in him, and this time he fixed himself to a sitting position, ready as always to talk about his one true love - books. Or, one of two true loves, anything edible coming close behind.
“I… My mom and I… We used to read together a lot. When I was a baby.” His voice was kind of wobbly, not unusual when the topic of Catherine Todd was coming up. His hands were getting clasped and unclasped every few seconds, his body showing his abashment to the outside world. Jason didn’t seem to be conscious of it. “We… were lying together in our bed and my mom read to me, and sometimes asked me to read some words or sentences. And when I learnt to read fast enough, we stopped reading the same book. My mom read her books, I read mine. But like… Still… Still together, you know.”(Or Tim is talking with Jason about books.)

Summary
“You said-” the kid hiccuped, eyes blinking intensively like always when he tried not to show he cried. “You said-” he repeated, but he seemed to be unable to coherently explain his thoughts. Instead, he reminded Tim with big teary eyes: “You promised.”
“Jason,” Tim repeated, taking a step forward. But when Jason took a few steps back in response, Tim raised his hands instead. “Jason, you know it’s dangerous for you to stay with me. You know what I do. You know it’s not safe for you.”
“You promised,” Jason kept repeating like this fact could make all the problems disappear. It, unfortunately, couldn’t.(Or Red, Tim Drake, is trying to find someone else to take the kid who was living with him for the last few weeks.)

Summary
He barely glanced at Jason’s card payment history for any bus fare, before he went for comms.
“Stephanie,” he started without waiting for any answer. “Why, the fuck, would Jason buy a plane ticket to Ethiopia?”(Or Death in the Family but Reverse Batkids and it's just Damian trying to find his little brother.)

Summary
“Would you like to feed him?” The mother asked, taking the bottle and testing it on her wrist. The words didn’t register to him until she was pressing the baby into his arms. He held him on instinct, cradling him and taking the bottle.
The baby ate greedily. Sucking down the drink like he might not get another meal. The mother helped him hold the bottle in a way that it wouldn't choke him. His hands came up, one around the bottle and the other grabbing Bruce's thumb. He stared down amazed and slack jawed. He was wonderful. And he had lived such a difficult life so far.-
After a repeated call for a welfare check goes ignored Bruce arrives to find a baby crying all alone in need of care.
