    Summary

    Joker Junior, the young plucky sidekick to the heroic vigilante known as The Joker, is 'rescued' from the former 'home' he's imprisoned in and is unceremoniously dragged to a different dimension by a man wearing his murderer's face!

    But with Damian locked in a cell, his Papa out of reach, and Batgirl left behind?

    He can't say this feels like much of a rescue...

    Summary

    Andi wakes up in Gotham with no memories, unnatural healing, and blackouts that leave her knuckles bloody and her body bruised.
    Jason Todd keeps stumbling across her like a curse he wasn’t meant to break.
    Gotham is stirring again, shadows moving in ways they shouldn’t.
    Kobra is using her, whispering commands through the cracks in her mind.
    Every time she closes her eyes, someone else is wearing her body.

    Jason sees the monster she fears she’s becoming.
    She sees the grief he carries like armor.

    They keep reaching for each other anyway—two ghosts looking for warmth in a city that swallows hope whole.

    Summary

    “…He gave Robin to Damian,” Tim finally says.

    Jason freezes mid-step, like the world has lagged around him.

    “…What do you mean he gave Robin to Damian?”

    Tim sighs, letting the binoculars drop against his chest. “I mean, he didn’t ask me. He just handed it over.”

    Jason turns fully toward him. “You didn’t give it up?”

    Tim barks a humourless little laugh. “Why would I have done that?”

    ····•····

    “What are you— would you stop trying to hit me?” Dick snaps.

    Jason laughs, bitter and sharp. “Remember all those times you tried to beat the shit out of me whenever I upset Timbers?”

    “You mean those times when I totally did beat the hell out of you?” Dick says, rolling his shoulders like it's nothing.

    Jason ignores that. Of course he does. Always has to act like he's better.

    “I thought I’d follow your lead,” Jason says.

    •··········•··········•
    OR: Bruce is back from the dead but that doesn’t mean all is well. Dick has fucked things up royally with Tim and Jason isn’t here for it.

    Summary

    Ra's stole Tim's spleen and threw him out a window, so Tim retaliated by stealing every single asset in the league's possession and then blowing every major League of Shadow base in the world to smithereens, as one does.

    Or cue the one where Tim gets his hands on all the league's material assets, and I mean ALL OF THEM.
    Money, Weapons, Poisons, information, surveillance, Lazarus pits, magical artifacts, and of course the nuclear bombs that he found in the basement. All of which, now belonged to Tim.
    What could go wrong :)

    Summary

    He opens his door to find Damian Wayne standing there with two swords in both his hands, visibly fuming. This would probably be more intimidating if the squirt weren’t at eye level with the middle of his autopsy scar and dressed like a walking traffic light.

    “Hello, Red Hood,” Damian grits out between his teeth.

    “Sup, Robin,” Jason says. “I just got done making mujaddara. You want some?”

    Damian stands still as a statue for exactly ten seconds, his grip on his swords knuckle-white. Then he very firmly nods.

    Or: Jason really wants to get revenge, on like, everyone, but he keeps postponing his plans because Damian Wayne insists on stalking him. Somehow, the angry chihuahua child worms his way into Jason’s undead heart. This is not a drill.

    Summary

    Percy Jackson is the son of Sally Jackson, and the son of Poseidon.
    He's a general, a leader, a friend.

    He's also a Wayne.
    Actually, not exactly.
    Perseus James Jackson-Wayne was declared "missing" at twelve years old in a car accident, presumed dead, despite the fake sightings of him.
    Jason Todd died at fourteen years old in a terrorist attack.
    Percy Jackson's favourite colour is Red.

    Two truths and a lie, anyone?

    The title is from our beloved Damian Wayne: “Because it will be hard for me to say these words face to face, I want you to know that Mother may have given me life, but you taught me how to live.”

    Summary

    Peter is going through it okay. He’s had a rough year. And now he’s god knows where with god knows who? No wonder he runs, and fights,

    Or.

    Peter lands in a pile of green sludge in a place called Gotham. He makes some friends. Some enemies. AND WILL GODDAM BRUCE GET OFF HIS BACK! Oh and a (sorta) familiar face!

    Summary

    Jason Todd knows he doesn't get miracles. Those are saved for parents who love you, brothers who want you, and a universe that is not indifferent to your suffering.

    But then—something bizarre happens.

    After scrapping with a Mage, Jason wakes up feeling...weird.

    What does he do? Goes to the smartest person he knows: Tim Drake

    There's only one problem: Tim Drake is...seven?

    Things just got really complicated.

    Or,

    Jason Todd is transported to a universe where Bruce is a good dad, Dick is a good brother, and Tim is seven years old—and needs a babysitter.

    Summary

    “Roy didn’t know a whole lot of things about the world, but he knew that people left. They came around for days, weeks, months, even years, and they brought glimpses of lives that could never have been Roy’s, and then they packed it all up and left.

    It wasn’t a bad thing, necessarily; it just was.

    Roy’s problem was that he was a fool. If Dick were there, he’d find a nicer way to word it – idealist, romantic, some bullshit like that – but really, Roy was foolish. He knew the rules, he knew how things were going to end, and he let himself hope every damn time.

    Brave Bow used to say, “Hope’s the kind of thing that’ll get a Navajo kid in trouble.” Roy might not have been bound to the tribe by blood, but the tribal band on his arm sure as hell wasn’t for nothing.”

    Or;

    The Outlaws, retold.

    Summary

    "Jason. Please. this isn't the way..."

    "This is the only way!"

    "There are better ways to write essays! You don't have to prove it yourself!"

    "No. I need to kill him for my literary analysis."

    "WHAT LITERATURE!?!?!"

    "The crime report that is about to be made in like 2 weeks, it's a metaphor for capitalism."

    Summary

    After the spell that erased him from everyone’s memory, Peter Parker wakes up to rain, rot, and rats the size of housecats. This isn’t Queens. This isn’t New York. This is Gotham—a city from the comic books that feels like it was designed to chew people up and spit out what’s left.

    With no Karen, no Avengers, no May, and no way home, Peter scrambles to survive in a city where even the shadows have teeth. As Peter tries to keep his head down, find a way to survive, and dodge a family of vigilantes who really don’t like metas (or so he thinks), he discovers Gotham isn’t all monsters and maniacs. Some of them wear masks. Some of them might even understand what it means to be young and carrying way too much.

    Or: Spider-Man gets dropped in Gotham, grief in his chest, quips on his tongue, and finds a new kind of family—whether he’s ready for it or not.

    Summary

    Feeling the shape of the pistol over the fabric of his sweater, Peter lifted his eyes to him, frowning.

    "That sounds like a question you'll have to learn the answer to the hard way," he murmured, much angrier now. “I'm simply dying to see what happens next, Red Hood, but it's not something I would recommend for you.”

    Peter has made bad choices before, but Gotham is the one that bites back.
    He wants to prove he belongs.
    He has no idea how vulnerable he is.

    Summary

    Look, Danny’s not trying to be deep. He’s just traveling, learning about humanity, trying to find a way to help ghosts find peace along the way. Instead, he stumbles into a pool of mysterious green water that won’t let go, forces older than death watching his every move, and a cosmic scavenger hunt where the prize is either saving the world or breaking it. No pressure.

    At least he has a competent intern to help him along the way. Even if he's a little rough around the edges. And trigger happy. And a bit easy on the eyes.

    Summary

    Gotham was burning.

    All of Gotham was burning, and it was her fault.

    ‘It’s okay,’ her mind reasoned, ‘At least we get to be one of our own victims, it’s fairer that way’

    That much was true, although the worst part was that it made her father right, she really was a useless, stupid girl that would never amount to anything. Except, that wasn’t true either. She had amounted to something; a cautionary tale, a tragedy, a massive mistake, and that was all she’d ever get to be. The alley began to fade from her vision, the rats and grime fading into darkness, numbness overtaking her body from her chest and out towards her limbs.

    Summary

    Jason listens to everything that Talia has to show him about the imposter who replaced him. He listened to everything she had planned, for him and for Damian.
    And then he decides, fuck it.

    It spirals from there.
