Two Heroes and a Baby

In this AU, 19-year-old Bruce Wayne adopts 4-year-old Dick Grayson after he is orphaned by a tragic event at Haly's Circus. Bruce is in over his head trying to juggle establishing himself as a responsible and valuable asset to Wayne Enterprises, beginning his vigilante work in Gotham as The Batman, and parenting a young child despite not knowing where to start. After struggling to get good press and constantly being seen as an irresponsible nepo baby, he sets up an interview at The Daily Planet. That's where he meets 19-year-old intern Clark Kent, who is eager to write a good story to begin his career as a journalist.

After Clark agrees to keep an eye on Dick during his interview, Bruce realizes he has a knack for watching children, especially young Dick Grayson. Bruce asks Clark to come live with him at Wayne Manor on a 6 month assignment as Dick's nanny, and in return, will let Clark write the story of a lifetime--an expose on his life that no other reporter has even come close to. Clark reluctantly agrees, but is hiding a secret from Bruce--his life as the superhero, Superman! As the two begin their friendship and double lives as heroes, they learn valuable lessons in friendship, love, and parenting.
