Dark Matter by
mysterycyclone
The last thing Peter sees is Tony's horrified, heartbroken expression leaning over him. The guilt in his eyes is almost worse than the burning pain that's taking Peter apart piece by piece. The world starts to go dark.
There's a flash of gold and green. For one moment, he finds himself standing amongst the Guardians and others. And then darkness again. It feels like blinking; an extended period of nothingness that ends as abruptly as it begins. One moment there's nothing, the next there's light.
"Easy," a woman says. Her words are gentle, and carry a slight accent that he can't place. "I'm called Wonder Woman. What's your name?" Long, plotty, compelling story of Peter getting thrown into Gotham after the Snap, and what happens to him after. Highly recommended.

He's Alive (I Didn't Know He'd Died) by
Civilized_muppets
Jason felt like they were forgetting to tell Damian something, that they were sending him into the mouth of the hellhole that was Gotham City without all the information. He didn't think it was a small thing either, he felt like it was something big, something that could make or break Damian's chances of success integrating with the Bats. [...]
He and his mom had covered everything. He had to trust that.
Damian, meanwhile, happens to be missing the key information that Jason is supposed to be dead. This is super cute!
Hope is the Thing with Feathers by
TheSilencer
Jason Todd is a time traveler, and Dick Grayson is always his destination.
A story about brothers doing their best. Oh my heart...
How to Proceed by
philosophersandfools
Damian tightens his grip on the knife that he's still holding, although logically he knows the teenager sitting across from him is not the threat here.
"So then, how do you suggest we proceed?" he asks through gritted teeth.
Timothy Drake leans forward on his elbows and clasps his hands together, eyes hollow and exhausted as he considers Damian.
"I think Bruce and Alfred are in trouble. We have to help them." Oh Damian. Oh heart...
"no" and other four letter words by
a_good_soldier
In which Dick Grayson learns about consent, with some help from his family. Dick starts to deal with what happened to him and realizes he's not alone. Oh boys.
The Robin Generation by
waterunderthebridge12
In his ongoing search for better ways to fight crime, Tim comes up with a brand new method: bombarding bad guys with Gen Alpha slang. Recruiting Gen Alpha cusper Duke and full Gen Alpha Damian, shenanigans, chaos, and bonding ensue. Hilarious! I literally laughed out loud repeatedly.
And one of its sequels:
The Robin Remonstration by
waterunderthebridge12
Cass and Jason agree on one thing and one thing only: Duke Thomas is the most precious baby brother ever. What they do not agree on, however, is who Duke loves best. Recruiting family allies, triggering various traumas, and sparking online hate trains, Cass and Jason battle it out for the title of Duke's favourite older sibling. Cass and Jason are both pretty awful here sometimes but I laughed out loud numerous times.
The Second Son by
FormlessVoidbeast
With Brucie Wayne on a solo backpacking trip to 'find himself' in the Himalayas (and Batman off-world and out of communication) an unknown rogue has decided to take the opportunity to kidnap all the Wayne children at once.
Cass is in the wind, and with no bats answering the Bat Signal, the rescue mission falls to the brother they didn't know to come after:
The dead one.
The black sheep.
The human tank with a fondness for guns and a taste for revenge.
But maybe, just maybe, there are a few things in the world more important than vengeance. This is a good read! I enjoyed it a lot.

Bullying?
Damian scoffed at the word. He wasn't being bullied.
What a quaint idea. It conjured up visions of being smacked around or shoved into toilets. Of being forced to ingest alcohol or some other mind-altering drug. Of having his locker defaced with filthy insults or stuffed with trash. Which wasn't what was happening to him at all. Oh Damian...

Tim and Damian get into a car accident and do a little bonding while waiting for the paramedics to show up.

A young Robin and Nightwing swap places; Batman is always the constant. Oh my heart...
The Tooth Fairy Cometh by
Imbecamiel
"It's not about frickin' money, B," Jason grumbled, readjusting his ice pack.
"Yeah, B," Dick put in, lighthearted, teasing. Rescuing the emotional tone as usual, when he wasn't the one who was angry with Bruce himself. "It's not about the money. It's Robin tradition. You can't renege now."
"You want me to be the tooth fairy. Again. For you," Bruce said, slowly, still looking at Jason. Oh heart.

JBS_Forever
In a scheming attempt to make them bond, Bruce forces Jason and Tim on what should be a simple quest: retrieve Alfred's birthday cake from across town and make it back before the party.
But this is Gotham. And nothing is ever simple in Gotham. Oh my heart.
