    Summary

    Shikamaru hadn't expected to be reborn as a child in the middle of the cesspit that was aptly named Gotham city.

    To his chagrin, he just had to get attached.

    Shikamaru might as well solve some problems while he's here, he's a ninja after all.

    Or:
    Shikamaru is reborn as Timothy Drake, hyjinks ensue.

    Summary

    The halo gets brighter the more people that Duke saves.

    He’s pretty sure that’s how it works, at least. He inherited it from his mother the day the doctors suggested it as a possibility: we may not be able to help them, Mr. Thomas.

    Duke doesn’t know what he is. He doesn’t feel like an angel; he has no divine purpose, no holy weapons, nothing but this stubborn light. But he looks at Robin and some part of him thinks I could do that, too and the halo, deep in his blood, sings.

    -

    or: an AU concept in which Duke's powers stem from the 10th metal: pure celestial possibility. he inherits a halo that has its own idea of Good and Evil.

    Summary

    Living in a tiny bubble frozen in time was not Kon's definition of a good life, but it wasn't like he'd had a choice in the matter. Everything he had known and loved vanished in an instant when the universe rearranged itself, leaving him stranded in an imitation of the Kent farm for, however long. He didn't think time really existed there.
    Then one moment there was a break in the shield that kept him safe. Trapped. He didn't think too much about it when he stepped through. Bart had often said that his devil-may-care attitude would one day leave him in more trouble than he could handle.
    In the blink of an eye, he found himself in a painfully familiar city. Gotham looked every bit as grimy and shady as he remembered, there were some differences, the technology was more advanced, but the people were just as he recalled. Honestly, he was glad the tiny crack had spat him out in Gotham and not Metropolis or Kansas. He didn't think he could stomach seeing the faces of who had been his family and have them look at him like a stranger.
    He knew the Bats wouldn't look twice at another face on the streets unless he called attention to himself. That would have to work to his advantage.

    Summary

    Wayne Manor has stood almost as long as Gotham itself. From the outside, it looks like a haunted house: all dark stone and shadows with lives of their own.
    Every so often, someone “has to ask” about the rumors that the building is haunted. A nosy reporter. A drunken socialite. A paranormal YouTuber.
    Outwardly, Bruce Wayne laughs them off, dismissing the idea out of hand. It's not his secret to tell.
    The reality is that Wayne Manor is much warmer and more welcoming to those who reside there than it is to outsiders. Laughter echoes through the halls. Little faces peer out of the windows, waiting to welcome him home.
    That's not to say there are no ghosts.
    But they don't haunt the Manor.
    They make it a home.

    ***

    Bruce somehow finds himself parenting some very traumatized ghost kids. And an equally traumatized living child. Sometimes family is a billionaire, a butler/dad, a gaggle of ghost children, a toddler assassin, and a weird, drunk, magic uncle.
