Summary
Then he took a deep breath and he changed. He ironed out every fold in his posture and his face until he looked like Superman again. His shoulders were broad, his gaze was confident, and his smile showed no sign of embarrassment or fear.
It’s genuinely uncomfortable to watch.
Especially since Bruce knows that change. He’s seen it in the mirror before entering parties or nightclubs. He’s always referred to it, internally, as 'putting on my better face.' The façade is his least favourite part of the day, ranking just below 'getting punched by supervillains.'
The idea that Superman is just Kal's better face, that would explain a lot.
It would also mean Bruce isn't alone.

Summary
On the night of September third, 1999, Jason Thomas Wayne disappeared from Gotham Memorial Hospital. Born prematurely just two weeks ago on August sixteenth, the baby had been staying in the NICU until stable enough to go home with his father, billionaire Bruce Wayne. Reports say that it was most likely an inside job, as there was no evidence of tampering with security or personnel. So far there have been few leads into the disappearance, but police have detained a paramedic under allegations of aiding and abetting. Security cameras show him entering and exiting the NICU within the time frame Jason Wayne went missing. So far the police have not released a statement on the matter.
Jason Thomas Wayne was stolen from his crib at two weeks old by a money hungry Willis Todd, who intended to keep the kid until he would "find him" and return him for a reward later. Although, things don't always go to plan...

Summary
“Tell me it was real."
She can’t look at him. She can barely stand the pain in his voice. She definitely can’t face it.
“It wasn’t.”
He shakes his head, and turns to her - his eyes swirling in their intensity.
“That’s not what I meant and you know it. Tell me that you were there. We were there together, having the same dream.”
She squeezes her eyes shut. She wants to lie to him. She needs to lie to him. But she can’t.
Lying would be like it never happened. But it did happen. And if it’s all they get to have, she wants him to know it.
“I think we were having the same dream,” she whispers, unable to meet his eyes.

Summary
When Marinette discovers she is pregnant, she is distressed to realize any of the three men she slept with in the recent past could be the father; Chat Noir, Ladybug’s partner and ex with whom she had gone through a tearful breakup - the mysterious Cat Walker, Ladybug’s rebound - or Adrien Agreste, Marinette’s current boyfriend.
But does she quickly discover all three potential fathers are, in fact, the same man? No, of course not; where would be the fun in that?
Independent from the other fics in this series!

Summary
She couldn't remember anything. Not where she was going, where she'd been, why she was in this stairwell, or even her own name. But as she watched the blood pool at the base of the steps, she at least knew one thing for certain: the corpse was hers.
Getting used to being dead was going to have its growing pains.
—
“Well, unlucky lady,” Chat Noir greeted with a bow, “Can I get your name?”
“Didn’t we just talk about this? I told you, I don’t remember it.”
“And I told you,” he reminded, “that you can just pick whatever fits you best.”
—
Ladybug and Chat Noir may not remember who they once were, but at least the two lost souls can find comfort in each other's company. But as Ladybug starts uncovering more and more memories of her life, letting the past go doesn't seem as easy as Chat Noir claims it to be.

Summary
“Chat,” Ladybug - Marinette said urgently. “Hawkmoth knows who we are, now. Hawkmoth knows where we sleep.”
“Okay,” Adrien said, thinking. “So either we beat him today before we go to sleep or - we don’t sleep.”
“We can’t not sleep, Chat, we just can’t...go home,” she finished.
Adrien let out a shaky sigh. He’d always known this day might come, he’d just - hoped it wouldn’t. “Okay,” he repeated. “Where would we go?”

Summary
Most men, upon waking up in the middle of the night and finding nothing in their environment to explain why, would roll over and go back to sleep. Alfred Pennyworth, a man who has not lived his life ignoring his instincts, silently folds back his covers and tucks his feet into his slippers. The butterfly knife under his pillow goes into his pajama pocket, and he goes to his bedroom door with every plan of simply taking a quick look down the hall to be sure nothing is amiss.
Something is amiss, however, and his breath draws in sharply. “Master Bruce?” he says a bit too loudly, and the boy jumps. His ward is standing in the shadows across the hall from Alfred’s bedroom door, and his round cheeks are wet with tears. (Alfred is worried about the fate of those cheeks. It has been such a struggle to get the boy to eat since…since.)

Summary
His curiosity might easily have been satisfied by a couple late-night birdwatching expeditions: you can only ride the high of discovering Batman's secret identity for so long. But instead Tim meets a mysterious homeless girl whose many particular skills do not include speech, and things spiral out from there pretty rapidly.
(featuring: aggressive mutual caretaking, the minutiae of communicating with someone who does not understand language, the minutiae of living in Gotham, some cameos, and two feral children doing their fumbling best to be good examples for each other)Series

Summary
“Are there other children?”
Damian bites his cheek until he feels it swell between his teeth. Of course no version of the Batman would be content without returning back to wherever he came from with a trophy of his victory.
Ordinarily, Damian wouldn’t lie. It’s too high risk.
Today is different from any other day though.
“No, sir.” Damian allows the lie to roll off his tongue with just the slightest sprinkling of regret. "Not Anymore"
