Summary
Dick’s blood froze as he stared at the advancing man in numb horror. The panic from before curdled into something colder—dread. Terror. His throat clamped shut like a vice, air catching halfway up his windpipe. His muscles locked so tight it felt like invisible hands were squeezing the life out of him—the truth settling over him like a cold, suffocating weight.
This man wasn’t Zucco. The Captain wasn’t here, and Dick had woken up in an unfamiliar bed.
Bile rose in his throat.
There was only one explanation.
He had been sold.
And the man in front of him... was his new owner:
The Batman.
(OR Bruce's an emotionally constipated pirate who finds a small, terrified mer and thinks yeah. i should adopt him.)

Summary
Bruce hadn't wanted another son, not after Jason, not after experiencing that hurt.
He hadn't wanted another Robin either, but Tim Drake had something to say about that, which is fine, it can be purely a work relationship...But this time the Drakes have something to say about that.
Or:
Bruce is grieving Jason, having another son wasn't even a thought but one unfortunate night Bruce learns that Tim is being neglected.
Bruce takes the boy in, the purely work relationship turned into father/son. Not only does Bruce start to heal, he feels guilty about it.Or more simply: Bruce is grieving and is guilty about moving on, Tim learns that his parents never had his best interest at heart, Dick is trying his best, and Alfred is doing his best...oh and four and a half years later they learn that Jason is still alive.
What can possibly go wrong? (Everything)Oh and did you know Bruce that you have a biological son?

When Jason Todd finds him half-dead in an alleyway, the overdose is only half of the problem.
Saving someone's life is easy. Keeping them alive after, not so much.
OR:
A story about recovery and finding the people who care.

Summary
“Affirmative. Drake, you have been exhibiting inconspicuous yet suspicious behavior.”
“Exactly! Couldn’t have said it better! Now, Tim-Tam, care to tell us what you were searching for? I swear, it was just sooo annoying, my phone screaming at me at midnight. Y’know how controlling GothNet could be of security! Has to blare it out to everyone in the vicinity.” A lie.
“I don’t see how that’s any of your business. Both of you.”
A.K.A
After falling in the Lazarus Pit alive and unharmed, Tim Drake comes back to life. In another universe. Will Tim be able to step out of this nightmare version of Gotham with crime organizations instead of vigilantes, or will he fall right into his family's clutches again?

Hal vs the Batfam by Phoenix_feathers17

Summary
It all started when Hal first met them (If you can call what happened a meeting). It couldn't say exactly how his first encounter went down as he had been too confused to keep up with all that happened around him. It was after his second encounter with one, though, that everything started to go downhill. For some reason, he had caught the sight of the batkids (yes, batkids. The Batman had kids) and now he just had to survive their antics until Bats decided to introduce them to the rest of the league. Oa help him if that doesn't happen soon.

Summary
The temptation to grab her and throw her down onto his desk, flip up her skirt and rip off her panties, before thrusting his cock all the way inside of her until she screamed herself hoarse was now so persistent it was nearly an obsession.
Clark was no longer in control of his body, or even his own thoughts.
His young assistant—with her unbearably pretty face and tiny, mouthwatering body— had somehow managed to shackle the man of steel in a primal, raving delirium of dangerous, deadly want.
-
Heartbroken when Lois abruptly ends their relationship, Clark Kent has never felt more alone in the universe. But when a shy young assistant begins working at the Daily Planet, Clark finds himself pleasantly distracted from his grief by far more than his new colleague’s pretty face.
Elsie is sweet, demure, and far too trusting for her own good—her naturally submissive nature unwittingly inspiring a correlative sense of primal dominance within the man of steel. Fueled by unexplored, dangerous carnal urges, Clark wants Elsie in ways a good man should never want a woman.
But then again, the powerful Kryptonian hero isn’t exactly a normal man…

Summary
Soon, almost all of the assassins are subdued, except for one. A tiny shadow of lethal grace. Steel blue eyes stared up at him from underneath a dark hood.
Bruce paused.
That. Is. A. Whole. Child.
He couldn’t be older than 10, eyes sharp and cold, moving with the grace of a seasoned assassin. The child assassin moved into a defensive stance, his weight perfectly distributed, bo staff snapping out. He was calm, there was no tension, no panic at facing off three men way older and heavier than him.
Protect. His instincts scream. protectprotectPROTECT.

Summary
It has eaten humans on many occasions. It is not his only food source, as he will eat anything with skin, but in general, whether by chance of fate or otherwise, he has never eaten a human or an animal or anything that has a nest with young.
Thinks of what happens to baby birds whose parents leave the nest never to return, and a twinge of discomfort makes him uneasy. If the caretaker of the human hatchling does not return by nightfall, the child will be cold and hungry, and will chirp to call its parents, but after a while, when the parents do not return, it will die of cold and hunger and dry up until there is nothing left.
Look at the skin it has put on. He knows it must look the same as the childs human's keeper. Surely he won't know the difference. After all, it's meant to be that way.
How hard must it be to raise a human hatchling? At least until it is able to feed itself.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Or the story of how a skin-thief becomes a father, one child at a time.Beta reader: AlyxS94

Summary
Tim died.
he could still feel it, the way death’s cold breathe lingered under his skin. rotten pieces of wood still embedded in his fingers from when he tried to claw himself out, and his throat still stung from when he took his last breathe. He was buried alive, so why was he still alive?
Maybe it was a blessing that Tim Drake never existed in the new universe he woke up in. Even if in that universe Tim was homeless, the Bats preying on his every move, and freaky white spiders were following him everywhere he went. And there he was thinking his life couldn't get any weirder.

Summary
Tim was never meant to be Robin. He knew that- he was just a stand-in, someone to be used until Batman was better or another Robin came along- he wasn't family. So, he hid his identity from everyone. No one knew who the third Robin was, not even Batman. Why is it, then, that the Waynes so interested in Timothy Drake? And why now, of all times?
OR: The Batfamily have been trying to lure Agent C back into the family ever since he ran away. It's a slow-going process. In the meantime, Damian has latched onto Timothy Drake, and is teaming up with Dick to try and adopt him. Whether he wants to be adopted or not.
