Summary
“You said it was a murder? Why send for us?”
Gordon regarded Nightwing with a dark expression before turning back toward the warehouse, “You’ll have to see for yourselves.”
Gordon pushed open the old wooden door, barely hanging on its hinges as it creaked open. Dick’s hand flew up to his nose as he was instantly hit with the unmistakable smell of blood and burnt flesh.

Summary
Summer on the mountain was perhaps the best time of year on Mt. Gotham. The higher elevation meant it didn’t get quite as hot as it did down in the city, but it was still warm enough to warrant frequent trips to the nearby lakes and rivers and spending a lot of time training outdoors, rather than down in the cave.
He used to love the summertime.
The hot sun, the songbirds, his family’s laughter.
Then, that laughter dies in the summer.
And there’s nothing left but silence.

Pacific Rim AU by jayburb (toothpasty)
Fandom Batman - All Media Types, Pacific Rim (Movies)
29 Aug 2022
Summary
A purely self-indulgent Batfamily x Pacific Rim AU.
A majority of this series takes place during the 2017-2019 Kaiju War success era.
Bruce is the Marshall of the shatterdome and has a lot of kids (all his Rangers are like his kids –– adopted or otherwise)
It's hard to be a good dad and fight in a war simultaneously, but he tries.
Some good batkid bonding time :)
There are a lot of parallels/references between the movie(2013), so spoilers ahead!
In this world, the batfam love and care for each other deeply, even if they are sometimes bad at showing it- Words:

Summary
Will knows Nursey, of course. He signed with the Falconers a few months ago as a free agent after college, just like Will did, and they’ve been paired together as defense partners pretty frequently, through rookie camp and now training camp.
They play together nicely, he thinks, but they aren’t exactly friends.

Summary
He turns the laptop screen towards Derek, displaying one of the more interesting links Google had provided for 'demon'. The background of the homepage is fire, and it has a huge animation of a gnarly-looking demon blowing fire out of its mouth and wielding a sword. “That’s what I am,” he laughs, pointing at the screen, “Although I must say, this is pretty insulting. As you can see, I am much better-looking than whatever the fuck that thing is. Also that is some fucking weak ass shit as far as fire-breathing goes. And why the fuck would I need a sword? I’m a fucking demon,” he huffs, then shakes his head. “Would you consider this cultural appropriation?” He raises his eyebrows expectantly, waiting for Derek’s answer.
“How did – I – you’re – is being a demon a culture?” Derek blurts.

Summary
Henry stood once more and walked back to his own pack. “You’re very welcome. Is this your first long hike?”
“What gave it away?” Hans chuckled.
A playful smile grew on Henry's lips as he took in the whole of Hans. His oversized backpack, probably his general state as well. Hans didn’t even want to know how pathetically black and blue he looked.
“Nothing at all,” Henry teased. “But you do know you’re not allowed to hunt?”
Hans frowned before he realized Henry was referring to his bow. “Oh! No, it’s not for hunting. It’s to shoot at trees. I’m allowed, I checked.”
Henry raised an eyebrow. “And pray tell what have trees done to you?”
“Well, to be honest, they’ve given me a lot of bruises lately,” Hans teased. “We’ve got a bit of a toxic relationship.”
“I can see that," Henry laughed.
______
Hans decides to do a three-month hike with zero experience to cure his loneliness. He meets Henry, and they breathe life back into each other. -
