    Summary

    "You're lost, prince."
    "Am I?" Daeron peered around as if only now noticing where he'd ended up. "Doesn't seem so. I was looking for a tent, and here's a tent." He gestured broadly, nearly toppling himself in the process.
    "This isn't your tent."
    "No, mine's much finer." Daeron took another wobbling step closer. "Silks and satin and all manner of royal rubbish. Dreadfully boring."

    Daeron stumbles into Raymun's tent after Baelor's funeral, and Raymun takes care of him despite every reason not to.

    Summary

    Duncan the Tall had been pardoned in the eyes of Gods and men. He had expected to return back to the roads, to leave the violet eyes of Targaryens behind, and to live the rest of his ignoble life in search of coin and service.

    Instead, a bloodied and beaten Aerion Targaryen stood in his way and refused to be moved.

    “Marry me,” he said, and Duncan could see that the pearly whites of his teeth had turned red. “Marry me, Ser Duncan, or risk insulting a dragon twice.”

    Duncan had turned pale with shock then red with rage. It hadn’t mattered in the end because one did not insult a dragon twice.

    “If it pleases you, my Prince,” Duncan had said smiling. It was hardly pleasant.

    I’m going to make you wish you were dead.

    ...

    That's exactly how he got them involved in his affairs.

    Summary

    “Jay Morgan, thirty years old, registered foster parent, approved for emergency placements.”

    “…Foster parent?” Jason repeated, incredulous.

    “Mr Thomas has been placed under your care effective immediately,” Laura continued, flipping a page. “Temporary arrangement pending review. You’ll be assigned a caseworker—me—for the duration of his placement. I’ll be conducting regular home visits, both scheduled and unscheduled, so I strongly advise you to ensure the premises remain suitable.”

    She stepped forward. Close enough that Jason had to shift back a half-step or get bowled over entirely by this woman who was at least two heads shorter than him, and in doing so, she brought the kid—Duke—with her.

    “Hey—no, hold on a second—”
     
    OR:

    With Batman gone, Gotham is falling apart. But Jason has bigger problems. Like this kid who just got dumped on his doorstep due to a case of mistaken identity. What was his name again? Oh yeah— Duke Thomas.

    (Shut up Tim! Jason did not have Bruce's adoption disease!)

    Summary

    5 Times Duke Tried To Prove To Bruce He Wasn't The Responsible One, and 1 Time His Siblings Knew Better (& used it to their advantage)

     

    Because Duke is relatively new, he hasn't opened up completely to the family. He tries to follow Bruce and Alfred's rules, but he doesn't always succeed (nor try to). It's during these times Bruce still manages to pin the blame on someone else. His siblings, of course, see this. And whatever are they supposed to think? Well, Duke's clearly doing it on purpose!

     

    (This is really just me being salty about fanon characterization, and an attempt to cram as much Crazy-Totally-Not-Sane-Duke as I can into a single fic)
