    Summary

    Eight years of Spider-Manning took its toll. Now, Peter Parker is content with his quiet bartending gig in Gotham where he just wants to wipe down bar tops in peace. If only Batman's sidekicks would stop treating his workplace like their personal clubhouse.

    ———

    Ft. Menace to society (and spiderman) Robins and an older, in desperate need of a 10-year-long nap, Peter Parker.

    (A Peter Parker who does NOT think he’s older brother/ mentor material, and batkids who disagree.)

    Summary

    The city changes in slow motion.

    He learns its alleys. Its fire escapes. Its shadows.

    It’s not Queens. But it doesn’t try to be.

    And that, he realizes one night while watching the moon rise over Crime Alley, is its kindness.

    Gotham doesn’t ask you to be okay.
    It doesn’t pretend to save you.
    It just gives you a place to fall apart.

    And the people—
    They’re sharper here. Scarred. Softer than they look.

    Tim lends him books he doesn’t finish.
    Damian insults his hair, then teaches him how to hold a katana.
    Dick teaches him how to fall without injury.
    Cass teaches him how to move without being seen.
    Jason teaches him how to aim—and how to miss on purpose.

    Or, grief is a second skin and Gotham is the only place it fits.

    Summary

    This is vaguely based on the following prompt by awhoreintheory:

    I need someone to write a feral 14-year-old, freshly dead uncle, angry at world, pre-vigilante Peter ending up in gotham

    Because??? Can you imagine the chaos???

    Peter gets dragged into DC, maybe a switch up of the circumstances on how he ends up in gotham? I'm thinking like. Either a futuristic science thing or magic, and Dink's DNA is placed in it (deliberately or not) and it's supposed to pull the closest alternate variant, but it malfunctions and knabs whatever shares the DNA

    Peter falls through a portal and immediately starts cursing people out, maybe he punches someone, who knows

    "Who is this spicey teenager and why are they calling me a bitch?" And Bruce looks at him and he's literally his first Robin.

    ***

    Or the Batfam intends to pull a variant of Richard Grayson through the multiverse into Gotham, and end up with Peter Parker, who is not thrilled to say the least. Peter is good at rolling with the punches, but is not thrilled about this new arrangement, and highly skeptical of his perceived kidnappers.
