IT IS DONE
May I proudly present the Superhero AU full relationship chart:
This took me so long and things got quite fiddly by the end. It was all worth it though to feel like a conspiracy theorist while also packing in more detail than I should have while trying not to give to many spoilers away.

just a silly little jaytim snippet I did on the fly, featuring hairy Tim Drake and Jason "Competence" Todd inspired by @ressaart's pic
"Have I ever told you how much I love this new direction you're going," Jason rumbles groggily. He must have woken up when Tim got out of bed again.
"Only a million times," Tim says, laughter in his voice.
Jason scoots over towards Tim, still laying on his stomach hickies covering his broad shoulder. Mocking Tim who has to go into the office today.
"Well I'll say it a million more. I love this direction you're going with Tim Drake's looks," Jason says more clearly, the sleep in his voice crackling away.
"You mean unshaven hobo?" Tim teases.
He won't lie, he loves the amount of free time he has now that he isn't shaving every day for Robin duties. After all Robin can't look like he's a man in his 20s, even Dick didn't stay Robin as long as Tim did and he was the one who showed Tim the place he gets waxed. But now that he doesn't have to keep a close eye on his stubble, or worry about chest or shoulder hair peeking out of his tunic or god forbid accidentally ripping hair off with his suit like Dick risks, he can do other things. Like sleep. Or have sex with his boyfriend.
"Only the sexiest unshaven hobo Timbo," Jason says with a wry grin and a leer.
Honestly it's just some body hair, they all have it, but Jason's been insatiable since Tim stopped waxing.
Tim has the bite marks on him to prove it.
He leans down onto the dresser, work shirt still unbuttoned and leaving his entire torso bared, if he has to suffer than so does Jason.
"Why don't you stay in bed? You can't tell me you'd rather go to a meeting full of rich fucks instead of fucking all day here."
"But then how would we afford this nice loft?" Tim asks innocently.
"We both know we could live off my income for the rest of our lives Tim," Jason says matter of factly.
"How about it? Make Bruce actually do his job and quit, be every 20 something year old's dream and be a trophy husband."
"I'm not living off your gang money Jason," Tim sighs
Jason gives Tim an incredulous look.
"What? No. That money goes straight back into Crime Alley, you know that."
No he doesn't.
"Wait, then how do you afford all that gear?" Tim accuses.
"With my job."
What fucking job.
"What fucking job Jason?" Oh shit that was supposed to be an inside thought.
"Wayne tech? R&D? Ring a bell?"
"You bought out r&d years ago! We got your identity and froze it and everything, it's under a group of shareholders now," Tim said confused before his voice started getting slightly hysterical, like it knew that something was about to come up.
Jason gives an awkward look, grimacing before beginning to speak.
"Yeah, Tim, those guys are all still me."
What.
"Yeah, they're all aliases, like really obvious ones too. I just thought you guys knew?" Jason trailed off awkwardly.
Tim can't fucking believe this.
"Jacobo Caballero?"
"Yeah that's me."
"Sanjay Raktah?"
"Jay is right in the name there Tim," Jason explains.
"Jane Tho—" Tim doesn't even finish that one, it's obvious in hindsight.
"Yeah, and Will Beauregard, Corrin Brandt, Kathleen Coppola and Simon de la Cruz," Jason admitted with a wince.
All of them. All seven members of the board…are Jason.
"What the fuck Jason."

@orangerosebush's post here, with my comment and @fowlblue's tags today got me thinking.
Artemis Senior has been teaching his son matters of business from a young age. Not only was Artemis, at 11 years old, discussing stocks with his father, but Fowl Senior had been imparting his wisdom onto his son for years by that point, discussing the ever-increasing value of gold with him before tucking him into bed. Even outside of pure monetary value, Sr. had tried to go legitimate with his business dealings, leading Artemis to have a few legal ventures of his own.
We also see very early on in the books that Artemis has been regularly using Butler as a resource for his plots: bouncing ideas off him was apparently a fairly common tactic when he was scheming.
Both Artemis Senior and Butler are interested in (or at least, not opposed to) educating Artemis on the ways of their lifestyle(s). It would be Artemis Senior who would have taught his son the value of banks and safety deposit boxes and hidden safes but it was Butler who was actively working with Artemis to rob those safety deposit boxes.
In the same vein of breaking-and-entering, TLC also gives us the fun little moment where Butler hands Artemis his own lockpicks, to get into the workings of the bomb.
With one line we learn that Artemis knows how to pick locks, but does not have his own set of lockpicks. Butler, on the other hand, has both the tools and knowledge how to use them. Partnered with a brief mention in TTP of some the specific trades of those previously employed by Artemis Senior (including such things as crime lords, insider traders, and cat burglars), we can extrapolate that Artemis Senior would generally hire someone to pick a lock for him, rather than do so himself.
It's pretty logical to conclude then that Artemis learned big-picture management from his father, and day-to-day skillsets from his bodyguard.
Essentially, Artemis Senior taught Artemis how to run a criminal empire. Butler taught Artemis how to be a criminal.

Okay- but...
Has anyone else noticed that at least with Dean Devlin- Christian Kanes characters all have some sort of ties to each other?
I mean:
Eliot Spencer; A military bred, mercenary trained, with multiple aliases- with a specific skill set, con-artist.
Jacob Stone; An art historian, with multiple aliases, genius brain, eidetic memory (?), librarian.
Alex Walker; con-artist, with multiple aliases, an eye for detail, retired giftshop owner.
The characters might not be the same but there still enough for them to be long lost triplets or something.
