Summary
It had taken years for Persephone Potter to get her life together.
Leaving the Wizarding World behind had been the best choice she had ever made, but it had taken ages to become the person she was now. The discovery of her immortality and unaging body had rattled her in a way nothing else ever had, but she had managed to get through it with some space. She had found herself. Had built a life.
Only for the Wizarding World to come back to haunt her—to force her into a war that was no longer her own.
And Seph wasn't fucking having it! She had stopped caring for these people a while ago; she couldn't care less about leaving them behind.
Her new world was better in every way—no looming war, no nosy neighbours, no loud cities. Nothing but peace and quiet everywhere in this forest she now called her home. The only problem was this pointy-eared weirdo who kept showing up, talking to her in a language she couldn't understand. What was up with that one?Series

Summary
Seyka has committed the ultimate crime.
After stealing a Diviner’s Focus in an effort to save her people, Petty Officer Seyka is cast out of the Quen. Thrown into the wilds with nothing but her sword and the desperation to stay alive, she journeys east to seek shelter in the bustling settlement the locals call Meridian—away from the spears of the Tenakth and the bloodlust of the rebels.
After months of struggle, death, and grief, Seyka has reached the farthest edge of the Sundom, finally seeing the path to Meridian within her reach.
Until she meets a redheaded huntress in the woods of the Daunt… wielding a Focus.
A complete retelling of Horizon Forbidden West, set in an AU where Seyka joins Aloy at the very beginning of her adventure in Chainscrape.

Summary
When a routine patrol goes sideways when a rouge witch pops up in Gotham, Tim finds himself in another universe. Again. He’s not really worried. It’s not his first experience with alternate Earths.
Well, until he finds out that basic rules that most Earths that have some form of a Justice League have don’t…really apply here. Oh, and he’s older than his oldest brother now.
You know what? Yeah, Tim’s panicking.
Or: the ‘Tim in the YJ show-verse’ trope, but comics-verse isn't a hellscape and the YJ-verse isn't perfect. Somehow, Tim finds a home despite that.

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.

Summary
Tim snorts, “Right. Obviously, that’s not the full story, but you were in space so we’re good.” He activates the tablet and shows Hal familiar paperwork. “I’ve come to the conclusion that if the League is going to treat me like I’m an unstable rogue, they’re going to have to commit to the bit.”
After being treated like unwanted children all their lives, Tim, Kon, Cassie, and Bart start to realise that the adulthood set out before them isn't much better than the past their leaving behind. They decide it's time to make their own way in the world, even if it means being labelled as 'evil'

Tim Drake’s Guide to Post-Mortem IVF and the Consequences of Teenage Parenthood by candlemouse
Fandoms: DCU (Comics), Red Robin (Comics), Young Justice (Comics)
29 Sep 2025

Summary
“So, where’s the evidence?” Tim asked.
“One moment,” Bruce said, still staring down at Lila like she was god’s greatest gift to earth. And she was the greatest gift to earth. But Tim’s greatest gift—not God’s—because Tim technically was the one who had swirled her up in a test tube.
Tim accidentally creates a baby out of his and Kon’s DNA in grief. He keeps this a secret until he can’t, and then pivots onto the story that he’s “babysitting.” With a family full of detectives, it’s a story unlikely to last.
(AKA the fic in which a baby prompts Tim to reconcile his relationships with his loved ones)

Summary
Aloy never asked to be shunned, ridiculed and outcast her entire life. Nor did she ask to be the Anointed of the Nora, the Champion of the Tenakth, the Savior of Meridian, Chieftan of the Banuk, or to have a task bigger than life itself put onto her shoulders.
All Aloy ever wanted… was her mother.
She still wants her mother, even though she knows Elisabet has been dead for over a thousand years.
But what if, somehow, the world finally granted her a boon? A miracle at sunrise on the horizon.

Summary
Danyal al Ghul's core yearned to reach out of his grave and add Damian's small proto-core into its Fraid.
But it had been 7 long years since they'd last seen each other. A whole lifetime.
Damian had already mourned him. It would be kinder to keep him in the dark, rather than drag him into the mess that was Danny's half-life.
So Danny would hide in Gotham until things cooled down back home with the GIW. Easy-peasy.
It wasn't like there was anyone out there looking for him, or anything!

Cold Cases And Colder Cores by aether_mae

Summary
Everyone in the Batfamily knew that Tim Drake solved cold cases as a hobby. So when an alert popped up for a seemingly dead-end case, he didnt hesitate to call his brother for help. A missing 15 year old, never found, presumed dead. The idea of it chilled anyone to the bone, but especially an ex-Robin.
Ever since his core fractured, Danny just wanted to control his new compulsions and avoid melting into ecto like his clone (sister), but the GIW and two random vigilantes wouldnt leave him alone!
OR:
What if Danny experienced Pit Madness the same way Jason did, and a few bats and birds try to help him?- Language:

Why? Fucking why? I never asked for any of this... okay, maybe once or twice as a child, but come on! Who seriously never wished they could be superheroes? Thanks to someone (I'm looking at You, the Presence), and knowing no way back home, I'm stuck in the world of DC Comics. Sure, I know DC Comics like the back of my hand, but still, so rude! At least I got some weird system called The Gamer to keep me sane and safe. Now I just need to make sure I stay the fuck away from all that superhero bullshit, and I should be fine. Besides, this world already has enough heroes to protect it... Uh, what do you mean there aren't any heroes yet? And what the hell is an instant dungeon?

Summary
“Kon is getting an apartment,” Tim says and his fingers are digging into his lifeline. “He needs a roommate.”
He doesn’t, but Tim prays he won’t mind.
“Where?” Dick demands then winces at his tone.
“San Francisco,” Tim answers.
Tim was never meant to be a permanent part of the Batfamily. He took on the role of Robin because Batman needs a Robin, but Batman has a Robin and even more people in his corner now and he doesn’t need Tim.
or Tim is used to putting his wants up on a shelf in favor of what the people around him need, but maybe it’s time for him to take them down, dust them off, and see what’s inside.

Summary
So, Danny moved to Gotham. Figured, with the whole "anti-ecto" thing finally kaput, it was time for a fresh start.
Then he met a weird kid at the dog park with a permanent scowl.
Turns out, he's Bruce Wayne's kid. Yeah, THAT Bruce Wayne. The playboy fruitloop billionaire.
Helping the kid house gothams strays was probably Danny's first mistake considering he wanted to stay under the radar.
Getting involved with Bruce Wayne's daughter?
Definitely mistake number two.
Well... he's made worse choices.

Summary
____
Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.
Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

Summary
Tim Drake is a solitary creature, whether by necessity or by natural predisposition. But he’s good at being alone. He’s learned to enjoy his own company, to take solace in his own cognizance. Aided by the brisk air of Gotham’s night air and a thrilling sense of independence, Tim learns that some things feel more special when you get to keep them for yourself. Unaccompanied walks down the school halls and singular movie tickets and dinners-for-one aren’t so bad when he can entertain himself with his own thoughts.
Tim has become so good at being alone, he can almost pretend he isn’t desperate for the unconditional love and companionship that a soulmate would guarantee.
It would be nice, Tim thinks, to have someone in his life who actually wants him. Someone who won’t leave every chance they get. Someone who enjoys his presence instead of merely tolerating it. Someone for whom he isn’t an obligation.
Still his wrist remains blank.
Until it doesn't.

Summary
Home. It's such an easy thing to take for granted, until you find yourself without.
Estelle had lost a lot, and in turn lost herself. When Grandpa Murray gave her a chance to reclaim her life, the best she was hoping for was a stable roof over her head. But there was something about the crisp valley air, the kindness of strangers, and the shy smiles of a dark-haired boy that made her think there might be more for her in Pelican Town than she had imagined.
Note: This fic was originally published in 2018. I have updated the publication date to reflect a major edit, including several rewritten/expanded scenes.

Summary
Tim was patrolling a little too close to Crime Alley for his liking, but he would be careful.
Hood still hated and despised him, and the Bat clan wouldn't help him for anything. Tim wasn't one of them, had never been one of them, but that was ok. He accepted that.
Tim just had to be more aware of his surroundings tonight and make sure he got home in one piece. Easier said than done in Gotham, but he was Red Robin, and he could finish tonight's patrol without issue. And really, the chances of him running into Hood on a Friday night were slim to none...
