    Summary

    It was a fact of life that every superhero had an archnemesis. Batman had the Joker. Superman had Lex Luthor.

    Robin, Dick decided one wintry evening, had Talia al Ghul.

    ...

    It's thanks to Dick that Bruce didn't end up falling in love with Talia al Ghul, and he really thinks his siblings should thank him for the work he did over the years.

    Summary

    Talia took her son and fled the League to Gotham and her husband's side. She thought that their little family would be the only thing she cared for. To be fair, she wasn't entirely wrong.

    Apparently, her husband's habit of finding and adopting stray children is infectious.

    Summary

    “So, Mrs. Wayne—”

    “Al Ghul,” Talia interrupts, giving a dazzling but warning smile.

    Damian’s teacher nods curtly and slightly embarrassed. “Sorry. Mrs. Al Ghul. I’m sorry to bring you and your husband in—”

    “Not her husband,” Dick says.

    OR: No Capes Talia and Dick coparent Damian.

    Summary

    “What do you need?” Kisuke asks without hesitation. His curiosity—and concern—is piqued. Besides, he owes Ichigo more than he can ever repay, and more than that, Ichigo is…well. Ichigo is his.

    His student. His protégé. In some ways, his creation, though he’s grown beyond what Kisuke ever imagined.

    His in other ways, too, though those are less clearly defined.

    “I’d rather not say over the phone,” Ichigo hedges, and that’s probably not good. There’s a hesitation there, and then a sigh. “You know what, sorry. I’ll figure it out. I don’t know what I was thinking—”

    “Where are you?”

    ---
    OR:

    8 months after Ichigo loses his powers fighting Aizen, Kisuke gets an unexpected phone call. Once again, Ichigo's found himself in danger. Only this time, he's been dealing with it alone. That's unacceptable, as far as Kisuke is concerned.

    for the prompt: "You came."/"You called."
