    Summary

    Lois Lane and Clark Kent have always worked well together. Somewhere between chasing stories and sharing quiet moments something begins to shift.

    She sets the pace and he follows without question, content to let her decide what comes next. Neither of them is in a hurry to name it, but it is getting harder to ignore.

    Summary

    Tim gets de-aged, and tells absolutely no one.

    He also, in no particular order, gets therapy, does a lot of crime, channels his inner cyberbully, steals another Batmobile, moves to Metropolis (temporarily), causes an Arkham breakout, gets kidnapped, kidnaps someone else, and accidentally becomes a supervillain somewhere along the way.

    Parental supervision is for losers.

    Summary

    Jason is adjusting to being connected to Gotham, but it’s not the most pleasant experience. He’s restless, something only partially helped by him going back out as Red Hood. He needs to get moving to silence the buzz under his skin, but that very buzz is making it hard to concentrate.

    Summary

    Peter Burke thought he was prepared for anything when he agreed to take Neal Caffrey on as his CI. Even the man turning out to be from Gotham wasn't a big problem; Peter was too, after all. However, the man's increasingly ridiculous explanations ending with "well, it's a Gotham thing" might... but, hey, at least Peter gets to use the same excuse now. If only Neal's excuses actually made sense— sure, Gothamites learn to fight young, but not long enough to take out a whole warehouse NEAL.

    OR

    Neal huffs. "I'm telling the truth Peter. I don't know what else to tell you."

    Peter snorts, and pulls up to June's house. "Maybe you should've chosen a handler who couldn't call you out on Gothamite bullshit."

    Neal opens the door. "Maybe that's exactly why I chose you."

    OR OR

    a very loose 5+1 of times peter was trying to get answers from neal and the one time he already knew

    Summary

    “I knew I could count on you,” Batman says. “We’ll celebrate when I’m back.”

    That’s a bold-faced lie if Damian has ever heard one. “If you wish. Have a good trip, Father.”

    An annoyingly Richard-sounding voice prods him to tack on an “I love you” but Batman cuts the call before he can decide.

    Damian closes the tab and sits back in the chair with a huff and crossed arms.

    "I cannot believe Timothy's overbearing friends and his paramour wished me a happy birthday before Father did," He grumbles, but it's without heat. For whatever reason, his father not remembering doesn’t phase him in the slightest. It’s only to be expected, really. Damian has never been a priority to him, and it doesn’t bother him as much as it used to.

    "Oi, brat! Hurry up, we're leaving in an hour! Do you want to go shooting with me or not?!"

    "I'm coming!" Damian yells, twisting around in his seat. Jason had moved back a very important meeting so he could take Damian shooting, so he won't snap and risk him rescinding the offer.

    Damian doesn't need to be Father's first priority. In his siblings’ lives, he’s the youngest. That means he will always take priority.

    Summary

    A series of misunderstandings involving conspiracy theories and government secrets leads to a Gothamite 'connecting' Bruce Wayne to the kickboxing furries that overrun Gotham.

    What follows is a truly impressive internet campaign with the sole intention of creating the most embarrassing fanfiction of WayneBat known to man. The only problem is, the deeper Jayden goes down the rabbit hole, the more they realize that other Billionaires are so, so, much worse.

    Lex Luthor's ego needs a nuke anyway. Even if said nuke results in robot monkeys raiding Jayden's house because they didn't know how to use a VPN.

    Lex Luthor discovers Omegaverse and mpreg, Robin commisions fanfiction out of spite, Superboy deals with being the child of divorce, and Caroline Hill becomes a New York Times Bestselling author off of a Batman x Bruce Wayne x Red Hood Love Triangle set in Regency Gotham.

    Summary

    Only a woman can uncover the tomb of Cleopatra… or so the legend says.

    Sherine Ben Halimi never planned to chase myths. An archaeology-trained journalist stuck reporting Gotham scandals and fluff pieces at the Daily Planet, she longed to write stories that mattered. So when a professor calls from Egypt about a lost tomb that could rewrite history, Sherine leaves everything behind.

    What she finds is more than ancient treasure; it’s a prophecy tied to her bloodline, a power buried for centuries, and a curse that demands a price. When Sherine returns to Metropolis changed, her world feels colder. Until she meets Clark Kent...

    Gentle, awkward, and quietly heroic, Clark sees what no one else does : the woman behind the smile. But in a world where Superman existence is controversial, and her own legacy threatens to consume her, Sher must choose between hiding and rising.

    Because some stories aren’t about crowns or curses — they’re about becoming.

    And legends? Well, they never ask for permission.

    Summary

    “There you go,” the Red Hood says, turning to - smile? - at her. He folds gracefully back into his crouch on her windowsill and cocks his head, stares at her unnervingly. “Ivy doesn’t like it when plants aren’t well cared for. I thought I’d save us all the trouble. You really are new, aren’t you?”

    “…just moved from Metropolis,” Amy explains belatedly, staring at him in blatant confusion. “And I’m… trying my best.”

    “Didn’t say you weren’t,” Red Hood murmurs. If it weren’t for that voice modulator, Amy thinks it would sound almost… gentle.

    Summary

    Clark looks at Batman, who has on his usual expression, which is to say, none at all.

    “What is that?” He asks again, because surely Batman will tell him.

    Batman just frowns.

    “It’s a cat,” he replies, as though that should be obvious.

    “It has six legs,” Clark points out.

    Batman cocks his head, as if to say, And?

    Summary

    He then turned and pulled out an old-fashioned recorder, asking “Do you mind if I record, Mister Wayne?” while still being half-way turned to his bag.

    There was something about the reporter’s politeness that rubbed at Wayne the wrong way, so he leaned back to observe him better and said: “Not at all. And Kent – was it? – call me Bruce.”

    “In that case call me Clark,” replied Clark smoothly without a trace of his previous manners, as if slowly slipping into the same role Wayne was playing, except his confidence and calmness seemed genuine.
