Summary
"Dick watched, rapt, as Bruce’s eyes darted behind his eyelids—fully in REM—and a line of drool dripped from his jaw. Clumsy and inelegant, as if puppeteered with fraying threads tied to dusty ball joints, Bruce shifted on the couch, untangling his legs and rising to his knees until he was looming over Dick.
Dick stayed still for once, thinking of that little novella and pinching his bottom lip between his teeth. You could say Bruce was little more than an animal like this, all strength and determination and libido with no sapience to temper it—none of the self-consciousness that sometimes held Bruce back in bed, even after their many years together."
Bruce has always been a very... active sleeper. Usually, the loss of inhibitions just leads to an errant punch or a too-revealing ramble. This time, Dick discovers a new side of his somnambulant partner—and what it's like to be at his mercy.

Summary
Dick said, “Well, I can’t settle things, precisely. As I am not your guardian but only your care-taker, Stephanie, there is really only one thing I can do, and that is prohibit a formal engagement. I am very sorry for you both, but unless Lord Wayne changes his mind, it seems you must be content to wait until Tim reaches his twenty-fifth birthday and his fortune passes into his own hands.”
Unmarried and nearing thirty, Dick decided that his only role in London was to chaperone Stephanie in her first Season. In dealing with his young cousin's matrimonial concerns, however, Dick's own past was caught up and tangled in the present, and it seemed Lord Wayne had not forgotten about that old matter either...
Inspired by and fused with Georgette Heyer's "A Clandestine Affair."

Summary
“Dick.”
He says it sternly, like it’s an order, like he’s wearing the cowl— which is weird, because Dick doesn’t think Batman is typically known for begging teenagers to let him come, so he doesn’t know what that voice is doing here. He can order Robin to do a lot of things, but he knows the line is at some point before this.
Dick exercises control where he can.

Summary
Mr West poured himself some more brandy. “I’m eloping with an heir,” he announced gloomily.
If Bruce was startled by this confidence, he did not show it. His lip did quiver a little, but he merely said, “Indeed?”
“Yes,” sighed Mr West, fortifying himself with another gulp of brandy. “Gretna Green,” he added, and drooped even more dejectedly.
Driving down to the country to visit an acquaintance, Sir Bruce had no thought of matrimony in his head. It turned out, however, that Fate, along with a loquacious stranger and several meddling family members, had other ideas.
Inspired by and fused with Georgette Heyer's "Full Moon."

Summary
“I do beg your pardon,” the man whispered, and to his amusement the thief sounded genuinely apologetic, “I really had no intention of fighting anyone! If you don’t mind a small bump on the head, I shall be out of the window in a second with no one the wiser – except for you and your headache, perhaps,” he added contritely.
Desperately attempting to save his brother from the consequences of his own folly, an accidental intruder found himself wrestling with the house owner instead. Somehow he found everything he could have ever hoped for too.
Inspired by and fused with Georgette Heyer's "The Duel."
