Summary:
Dick Grayson is used to dealing with kids wanting to run away with the circus but Bruce Wayne isn't a normal runaway. He's an orphan, like Dick, and minor celebrity in his own right. He's also in danger, though he doesn't know it, and Dick is determined to keep him safe. This turns out to be harder than he was anticipating; he wasn't expecting the kid to be so stubborn, or so smart, or so angry, and most of all he wasn't expecting to get so attached to him. Dick doesn't have long to learn how to be a father and he will have to learn fast because Bruce isn't going to wait for him to catch up. Will he become a bat, or something much worse? Who is really responsible for the death of the Waynes and what will Bruce do when he finds out the truth? How can Dick protect him from an old enemy if he can't protect Bruce from himself?
REVIEW:
It was an interesting perspective this fanfiction has take, An Age Reversal between the infamous Bruce Wayne and his ward Dick Grayson. Dick has to learn how to be a batdad while Bruce is being THE kid who has emotional baggage which will shaped how he will turn out in the future.
