Summary
Peter was alone, mid-way through an existential crisis after the Erasure™ and was dreading the upcoming month of May.
Jason was sick of people telling him how he felt. ‘You don’t need us anymore,’ Artemis had told him, as if saying it would make it true. As if Jason needed someone to justify keeping them around. But three weeks back in Gotham and all Jason felt was fucking bored and lonely.
It was a relief, then, when some random New Yorker was thrown into his living room through a portal straight out of some LSD daydream.
Finally, something interesting to deal with.
Cue some wild family misunderstandings, criminal conspiracies and cults.
Because there’s always a goddamn cult.

Summary
A mansion with an English butler traditionally has two layers: the plush lives of the owners above-stairs, and the hidden bustle of the staff below. Wayne Manor has a secret third thing.
Bruce wants to build a Batcave. Alfred cannot be incinerating the candle at both ends. He needs staff. And, difficult as it is to admit, he needs much more help than Master Bruce would possibly trust. But a butler is well used to smoothing over appearances. The owner and his increasingly large family need not know exactly how many people are paddling like mad underneath.
They need not know about the unusual ability of the admirable and lovely Ms. Kyle, either.
A fic about community, told in part through the eyes of the workers who bless this mess.

Summary
Timothy Jackson Drake was a genius.
Certifiably, he’d been tested. Twice.
He was also smart.
He had his secret hide out office, his Batman photography hobby, and a foolproof system for managing his well-meaning but often absent parents.
Everything was working exactly as planned.
Then Super Boy Prime punched a hole through reality and Jason Todd clawed his way out of his grave.
Which was good. But decidedly not Tim’s problem.
Or it wasn’t until Tim accidentally photographed a dead Robin wandering around Gotham on Halloween night.
When he couldn’t lead the zombie to Batman, he did what any logical eleven-year-old would do: he solved the puzzle, fed the zombie, and somehow ended up with an overly protective shadow who thought crossing state lines required supervision.
Rude.
Tim was starting to regret his curiosity about riddles.
Timothy Jackson Drake was a genius.
No one could disagree.
He had papers!
But smart?
Yeah, Jason would argue that one.

Summary
Tim had patched up Jason after Bruce slit his throat with a Batarang.
Jason had offered Tim a place to stay after his sixteenth birthday.
They were brothers in a world that had left them behind. They were brothers in a world that had been cruelly unfair time and time. They were brothers in a world that hadn’t given much else.
So when Bruce nearly beat Jason to death, uncaring that his son had only shot Penguin with a blank? Tim did what he had to do.
(Or
How Tim became Red Hood.

Summary
The Lazarus Pit always takes something from its victims. Usually, it's sanity, memories, emotional regulation, or a combination of the three. It doesn't often take a person's humanity and warp their body beyond recognition.
Seems like Jason Todd is the (un)lucky winner of such an opportunity! When the teenager wakes to a second chance at life, he is forced to live in the body of a monster. Yay!
To survive, he must uncover the limits and powers his new form holds, all while trying to avoid unwanted attention. When he returns home, things only get more difficult. His family actively hunts him, people are terrified by his very presence, and rogues try to catch him for their own uses.People fear what they don't understand. Villains hate what they can't control. Vigilantes detain what they think is dangerous.
There is no place for inhuman monsters in Gotham, but surviving by yourself is lonely. Maybe taking Batman's new little bird under his wing will help somehow?
OR
The one where Jason gets turned into an animalistic cryptid and has to survive Gotham being...well Gotham. Oh, Tim's there too. He's sad, but he thinks that having a cryptid best friend would be pretty cool.
