Oh goodness, I just recently slodged through the two or three issues that deal with the rape, and after being so utterly disappointed in the book's failure to deal with it after the fact in any way whatsoever, this fic was just perfect. I so want to believe that if he'd had any idea what was going on with Dick at the time he would have reacted like this. Gorgeous job. <3

Thank you, Lyra! :)
I don't buy Bruce as this clueless idiot who doesn't connect with his family. Sure, he can be clueless at times, but not ALL THE TIME, nor cold and unapproachable. He isn't the easiest man to deal with but he loves his family, and he if he didn't show them at least glimmers of that love now and again, I doubt they'd stick around.
Love it! It's so good to see Bruce not being an ass for a change, to see him being an honest father and mentor. I wish canon could have been like this, with someone stepping in and saying 'hey your kid's hurting, help. now.'

Glory be!
When did it become the accepted way for Bruce to build up a family and then discard them? *shakes head* Canon needs a LOT of work!

And he would give his all for Dick.

I love a protective Bat! :)
And Slade getting revenge.
He's very, very good at it.
Wonderful work as always!
Thank you, Louise! :)

Oh, yes. It's not a magic cure-all, but he'll get the support he needs.
Not that the Titans weren't helping, but Alfred could be in attendance 24/7 and Bruce and the rest of the family could be right there at the Manor.
