Summary
Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne was kidnapped from his office one gloomy Wednesday morning by none other than the Red Hood, an action apparently carried out in order to, quote, "thwart an assassination attempt, Timerella, so shut the fuck up before I carry out the hit for them."
Somehow, this situation and the associated threat to his life, his dignity, and the cortisol levels of Wayne Enterprises' PR team quickly became the least of Tim's concerns. By Wednesday noon the forced bonding exercise with his sort-of-estranged sort-of-brother had evolved into inadvertent dimensional travel.
And there was something very, very wrong with this Gotham.

Summary
Batman's contingency plan for Green Arrow is as follows: "Oliver Queen is every bit the playboy I pretend to be. Green Arrow can probably be distracted with any number of positive or negative changes in his personal life and fortune."
The launching of said plan culminates with their sons getting married. In unrelated news, it might need a little workshopping.

Summary
The man snorted a derisive breath through his nostrils. “Peachy,” he said with a crooked grin, and despite the humor, there was something dangerous—feral—about that smirk. Maybe it was the rugged jawline or the mangled scars, the blood slowly dripping from the split in his lip or the finger tapping at the butt of his gun; but Roy’s instincts sparked aflame. He needed this man. He was the one.
Before Roy could fully think it through, he barreled ahead and asked, “You got any plans for the next month?”
The man arched an eyebrow, his gaze narrowing as he stared straight at Roy. “No,” he slowly said, the word careful and drawn out with his wariness. “Sounds like you might, though.”
--
In which Roy hires Jason to accompany him on a trip to pick up an expensive stallion; and while sleeping beneath the stars and hunting rattlesnakes, Roy sees a side to this rough, rugged man that irrevocably stirs Roy's heart.

Summary
On the fourth day, it becomes clear that Joe is organizing something—more muscle than usual, a few more Black Mask affiliates than there should be. The few glimpses of Joe that Dick gets, he’s on his phone, speaking rapidly and gesturing emphatically.
On the fifth day, everything is quiet. No one comes, no one goes.
On the sixth day, Tim calls Dick: they’re not sure where Jason is. And yeah, maybe that’s just normal, and they’re not panicking yet. But they’re not sure where he is. And they’re about to start looking.
And on the seventh day, Bruce shows up at his door with Jason standing next to him, pale and hacking out a cough, putting too much weight on Bruce’s shoulder, and says: “I need to ask you a favor.”
OR
Dick is supposed to be on a boring stakeout assignment. Jason complicates that.
OR
“I’LL TAKE CARE OF YOU.” “IT’S ROTTEN WORK.” “NOT TO ME. NOT IF IT’S YOU.”
