Hold Me Tight (like you never did before) by SmoochPuff
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU

Summary
Red Hood knew Dick's identity. He knew the identities of all the bats, actually. Bruce was pissed and Tim was determined to solve this mystery like usual.
Dick can't be bothered to care all that much, seeing as the crime lord wasn't using that information for anything other than mocking them.
He seems to keep running into the masked man and, weirdly enough, he doesn't seem to hate Dick.
Well, he's getting mixed signals, but he's pretty sure he isn't going to kill him.
Jason didn't know why Dick kept showing up in Crime Alley to see Red Hood. He hates him and Bruce and Tim (part of him knows he's lying about that).
He just wants the man to leave him alone (even if he feels more like himself when he's around).
It would be easier to say that if Dick didn't look two seconds away from having a breakdown (Jason isn't far behind him).

Summary
“Chin up, Mr. Kent,” comes Dallas’s clipped dialect. “I was simply worried that you alone were not enough… incentive for your lovely girlfriend to cave to our demands. But I doubt even Ms. Lane would be so heartless as to leave her oldest and dearest friend to my hospitality.” Dallas forces the man’s chin up, and Clark finds himself staring into the eyes of a trembling and bloodied Bruce Wayne.
Well damn. Hopefully Lois can get Batman on the line to get them out of this dumpster fire.
Or: Clark hasn't been able to make heads or tails of Bruce Wayne for months, but when they're both kidnapped by people trying to extort Lois, he's going to have find some common ground fast. Weird how Bruce reminds him of his colleague Batman, who Clark is pretty sure is terrified of him, but that's probably not important.

Summary
Dick Grayson was snatched off the streets by Batman when he was nine years old, out hunting for his parents' killers. At first, he thought this Bruce Wayne guy wasn't too bad. Then Bruce showed his true colors and taught Dick the meaning of the word Hell.
Ten years Dick has been living with this child abusing, pedophilic monster. Ten years of hell, and in those ten years, Bruce has snatched two more boys off the street. Dick was at his breaking point. He wasn't sure how much longer he could live like this. So when Bruce gives him a little too much freedom, meaning Dick finds an old shotgun in some weird abandoned butler's suite he found, Dick takes advantage of it.

When It's Too Much by Casey_Bones

Summary
Dick started to get angry when people wanted him. Angry when hands touched him. Angry when eyes trailed over him. Angry when someone smiled at him like they already knew how he’d respond.
Angry when he caught himself responding anyway. And those emotions had nowhere to go, he didn’t know what to do with them. So he turned inward.
He started hoping people would notice the damage and recoil.
That the ugly marks would be enough.
That the cuts would make him unappealing.
That if his body looked broken enough, people would stop trying to claim it.And when things become too much, sometimes the simplest thing to do is disappear.

Summary
Jack Sparrow dies badly.
Not heroically.
Not spectacularly.
No audience but the waves.Old age comes for him the way no ghost, curse, or navy man ever could: quietly, efficiently, without permission. His body simply decides, one night, that the game is over. His breath thins. His heart hitches. His fingers go numb around the compass he hasn’t dared open in years.
He collapses on the deck of a nameless little sloop.
And when his eyes open again, he is standing on a spit of mist, the threshold, the place souls go to wait for the Ferryman.
He knows it instantly. He’s cheated death often enough to recognize its bookkeeping.Series

Summary
Fondness for Bruce bloomed in Tim's chest. He mustered a small smile. "Thanks, Dad. I'll really- it'll be fine. I want to see him."
"I know you do," Bruce said with warm eyes, "But don't hurt yourself in the process."
A statement that was almost laughable, given how long this family had been putting their lives and bodies on the line in the pursuit of hope in a better future. But it was said with such immutability, like it was inevitable. Bruce would make it true somehow, that Tim didn't hurt himself here and now. It was that unspoken faith between them that prompted Tim to push open the door.

Summary
Bruce has always struggled with his emotions. But his actions? That was where he thrived. Actions speak louder than words. Problems can be solved with action.
Bruce is a problem, and Batman would always be his solution. Clearly, however, it was the wrong solution.
What do you do with a problem that can’t be solved?
You eliminate the problem altogether.
OR: Bruce Wayne is at the end of his rope, but his closest allies might just be able to stop him from doing something he can't take back

Summary
Something was happening to Bruce. It started with little things like a ringing in his ears and some dizziness, but it eventually evolved into something much more severe. Whatever this was, he wasn’t going to bother his family with it, especially his children. They didn't need to be burdened with an old man like him, seeing as they had their own lives, personal and vigilante wise.
They'll forget about him. They already did, didn't they?
...Right?
But, as Bruce's life always does, it never goes his way.
