Not My Dad (But A Good Stand In) by maplesnmulberries

Summary
Duke Thomas had been with the family for six months. Officially, at least. Had known them for at least a year before that. Age sixteen, now, he had reluctantly allowed them to place him under their custody after being on his own for a while. It was comfortable enough. He'd been content to be fostered, even though the offer of adoption remained extended.
He was given independence. Independence that he craved. It had been his most important condition upon joining: that he be a Bat, but not a Robin. Gotham's solo daytime vigilante.
It was just...professional boundaries, Duke told himself. Bruce was Batman, and Batman was like, his mentor-supervisor-vigilante landlord. Or something. Not his dad. He had a dad. And not really a paternal figure, either, like how Steph and Babs viewed him.
He liked the guy. Just...didn't need a dad. He was fine. Chilling.
(Until he wasn't).

Summary
"What do you want, Nightwing?"
Dick stood in the middle of the room. He took a step back at Duke's words and held his hands up, showing them. "I thought... I thought maybe you'd explain."
That was the point. Duke had never been a quiet guy. People thought so because his anger never showed. Duke, however, always felt angry. Because life was so fucking unfair.
"What if I didn't?"
***
Also, Duke does something stupid. His siblings do something even stupider. Someone holds a sword to someone's throat (that's a metaphor but, also, not a metaphor). In the end, everyone cries.
Or: the fall of Duke Thomas, the rise of Signal, and, finally, the rise of Duke Wayne.

Flicker in and out (You're going to be alright) by Resident_Sunshine
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Batman and the Signal (Comics)
05 Jun 2025

Summary
Duke just got picked up by the weirdest family around after two years in the system, all he has to do is fundamentally hide himself or risk being thrown in a cell next to his parents. How hard could it be?
___
Or: A little character study into Duke Thomas where I play fast and loose with his lore and powers. For context, in this one he went into foster care at 14 and didn't join the batfamily until he was 16. I also made his powers more emotion based and slightly inspired by the thunderbolts after watching it. By this I mean his shadow powers just started to develope and are triggered by darker thoughts and depression. Otherwise he is still a glowstick and most other powers are more accurate.

Summary
Tim's shoulders sank a little. Duke could tell he really wasn't sure what to do at all. After a moment, Tim simply wraps an arm around Duke's shoulders, pulling him in for a hug. The fact that he was trying to soothe him at all only made Duke cry more. In response, Tim awkwardly patted Duke's back- making him laugh a little through the tears.
What a blessing to have a family such as this, even when his first family had fallen apart.
-
Duke is so stressed, he forgets hay fever is an actual thing. Tim tries to help him out and accidentally makes him cry.

Moon's Batfamily by moonlure
Fandom: Batman - All Media Types, Batman: Wayne Family Adventures (Webcomic)
14 Sep 2025
Summary
I know barely anything about DC. I've watched Young Justice Animated and read Batman: Wayne Family Adventures. Everything else I've learned is from wikis and fanon, therefore the laws of canon are mine to command. Happy reading!
My batfamily includes an oc of mine, as well as autistic Damian Wayne, autistic and semi-verbal Cassandra Cain, wheelchair user Barbara and a general disability friendly attitude.
Angst. Whump. Hurt/Comfort. Confusing storylines from the mind of someone who ignores plotholes.
Happy reading!

Summary
Tim can just barely make out what the voice is saying. “—Not a drill. Lockdown, code red. This is not a drill. Lockdown, code—“
Immediately, everyone panics. The voice over the intercom continues to repeat the same sentences. Tim and Stephanie share a look.
That look means nothing to the people around them, just two scared friends looking at each other. But to them? That look means everything. It’s like, suddenly, with one look at each other they’re no longer Stephanie Brown and Tim Drake but instead Spoiler and Red Robin.
The best duo there is, arguably.
OR
Gotham Academy gets put in a code red lockdown. Following the POV’s of students Tim Drake, Duke Thomas, Stephanie Brown, and Damian Wayne
