Amazing story! I am spreading out reading your work now because I don't want to run out too soon, but it is amazing. Thank you for writing!

Great story as usual!
TheButterflyComposer chapter 25 . 11/10/2016
Sweet. Writing is back up to excellence and all is right within the Wayne mansion. Good night everybody!

Mm, a mild truth serum that leaves no trace and doesn't harm anyone...Batman should find that useful. Not sure about the bat computer having all files open to everyone who can log onto it though...

Does this mean we have a beach story coming?

Damn...fuck that guy. Seriously.

Gordon seems to know who batman is, or is figuring it out anyway. Or maybe he doesn't really want to know but feels it.
This case was horrible but not horribly written if you know what I mean. I can't really say I liked it because it was a somewhat dumb opening (I mean...Robin hiding injuries maybe but the cowardice thing, even with fever was a bit much). Then the child security thing again had me banging my head on the desk because even though it would happen in a case like this, the repetition is ridiculous. At this point, I know the legal team is going to win and that the counsellor is insane. Finally the payoff was a bit rushed. I'm glad they solved the mystery so quickly and because of how simple it actually is it makes sense that they do but still, little build up. Though admittedly I much prefer this to having Dick being chained under Henry's floorboards.

It's not your best, let's just say. I understand that as time goes on and Dick ages the world gets darker but I think this was a bit off. Will still read everything else though. I do like this universe and your writing.

Superman and Batman just heard that Henry. You lucky boy, you.
I imagine he's going to be beaten close to death before one of them stops the other. Although...if that girl is still there, superman might be too busy helping her to call Bruce (yeah, Bruce) off of him.

"Robin and Batman have Christmas!" might be the best line I've read so far in this universe :)
It goes without saying but I need a short fic about that.

Well, it certainly looks like he's into the child sex industry which is horrifyingly worse than anything that the bag of nightmares that is the Gotham Child Services has pulled out before. That place needs cleaning out more than the GCPD does.

Is he...child trafficking? Holy shit dude, this is grim, even for a batman story.
TheButterflyComposer chapter 15 . 11/10/2016
He's kidnapping them then. But why? Some mad science experiment? Is that why he needs Dick's things too, for some kind of psychic energy? Or has he got a fetish?
TheButterflyComposer chapter 13 . 11/10/2016
Sexual abuse again? This really is starting to be like DC story...well, it's good to see everyone rallying round this time and getting on with the job. They've done it so many times before that Keith and Bruce are dab hands at it.
Not sure what Erwin's angle is? Does he get some kind of high on busting up Wayne or is he raped as backstory like the first counsellor or...are we going to go somewhere REALLY dark?
TheButterflyComposer chapter 8 . 11/10/2016
Where does Gotham get these animals? Did batman cause an entire class of students enrolled in that course at Gotham university to go nuts? Fell like that's probably the most DC-like explanation...
TheButterflyComposer chapter 5 . 11/10/2016
ARGH! Robin! Why are you still hiding injuries and illness in the cave? And now you're feverish and delusionally thinking Bruce is playing mind games with you...wonderful.
Let me guess, the evil social worker of the month happens to turn up too ;)
Mysteryfan17 chapter 25 . 7/29/2016
Dark to light but that... I know writing bad guys makes me feel so dirty so I can guess how your stomach twisted when your character went off the deep end and dragged the story with it. Ugly fact but he'll get what he deserves behind bars, all of them. 10/10 Next story. :D

All the love for your "Spark in the Dark" stories as always! So adorable and heart warming the letters that Bruce and Dick wrote for each other! "P.S. - I love you, too, you big dork."

"The Dynamic Duo conquering the corporate world by day and stalking the streets of Gotham by night." - I'd absolutely love to read this someday.

Thank you for your labor of love and for sharing your interpretation of the beautiful relationship between Bruce and Dick.
