They Dragged Me Kicking And Screaming And Wished Me Merry Christmas by enqxiry for ZeldaFea

Summary
Sometimes you get kidnapped by a philanthropist billionaire who dresses up as a furry to terrorize the criminals of Gotham after sundown and then you promptly get adopted by the same freak. Sometimes the same guys discards you on the streets with a couple gaps in your memory and just the clothes on your back.
Then he, and his new larger family, kidnaps you back in to the family and then try to convince you it's all magic so that he can bring you back into the family.
But not to worry if you are Jason Todd because he's no push-over and may god strike him down before he lets his kidnappers--"We're family, Jason"--just drag him back in to the family.
OR
How Jason Todd learned that it's okay to let your family love you (and just in time for Christmas phew!).
P.S. this is my gift for @Zeldafea (Hi, Mossy if you're reading this! I hope you enjoy this!!) as par TDSB Secret Santa Exchange. Kinda butchered the prompt but we found our way back in the end.

Summary
Damian isn't sure if he'll ever fill his father's shoes. Not as Batman, a mantle which he once coveted and now wants nothing to do with, or as Richard Grayson's legal guardian. But with his father dead, he has no choice but to step up. It's not like Tim - busy searching for a way to bring Bruce back - or Jason - Crime Alley's infamous Red Hood - are going to look after the boy. He wishes he could ask his father for advice. It's not like he's got a wealth of responsible parental figures in his life to turn to when he needs a helping hand, and Richard is definitely a handful.
Like right now, for instance: he just will not stop poking that magical artefact they're supposed to be watching for Zatanna!
It'll be fine, right?
OR: a Reverse Robins AU in which older sibling Damian and younger sibling Dick accidentally travel to a universe where their ages are reversed, Bruce and Alfred are still alive, and a shocking amount of things are still the same.

Summary
He shouldn’t have decided to follow the Bats—obviously, it was bound to end badly.
Now, floating a few inches off the ground, his joints bound by an invisible, magical force while standing—against his will—between the wizard and Gotham’s vigilantes, he was mentally cursing everything and his damn luck.
Because of course the magician had to mess with his mind.
—You’re sixteen years old, what are you doing as a crime boss?
Wait… what? He blinked in confusion at the magician in front of him, because that… wasn’t right.
—What?! —Nightwing shouted from behind him.
Or, also known as how the Bats find out Red Hood’s mental age and what they do about it.

All my wisdom teeth grew back, and all I got was this family by Desconhecida
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
07 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
Jason's wisdom teeth grew back after the Lazarus Pit. Annoying, but fixable with a quick trip to the oral surgeon.
Running into Bruce and Tim at said oral surgeon's office? Less fixable.
Jason is not mentally prepared for this confrontation. Not now. Not when he tortured the replacement only two months ago. Not when Batman chose Joker instead of him.
Not when they see him in the waiting room and look at him like he's a bomb waiting to explode.But Jason's a lot more honest when he's high.
And Bruce decides he's taking the very-hostile-but-also-very-high Jason back home with him and a very sad-because-he's-confused-by-the-drugs Tim.
What follows is post-anesthesia chaos, involuntary truth-tellingSeries

Summary
A magic-using villain wants to show the Batfamily what Gotham would’ve become without Bruce. The visions aren’t prophecy—they’re retrospective. And every one of them hurts.
What It Means
Retrospective describes something that relates to the past or to something that happened in the past.
// The museum has curated a retrospective exhibit of the artist's early works.

Summary
Jason Todd has survived a lot of things.
This time, survival is not the point.
AKA As his captors grow more frustrated, the cost of defiance becomes devastatingly personal, and Jason’s greatest fear isn’t what they’ll take from him...but who won’t come for him.
What It Means
Grandiose is usually used disapprovingly to describe something that seems impressive or is intended to be impressive, but that is either not possible or practical.
// The long-vacant historic building has finally been purchased, and the developer has announced grandiose plans to make it the center of a new theater district.

Summary
Bruce looked up at him sharply. The boy’s expression shifted then with something older than his face suggested he should be capable of carrying, with something heavy settling behind his eyes. He didn’t flinch away from Bruce’s glare, in the same way he didn’t blink in the face of the violence and blood. He just sat in his red hood, small body tucked defensive but somehow coming off as casual, and his bright young blue eyes looked at Bruce like someone that Bruce should remember.
“Those weren’t the ones who needed savin’,” the boy said. “And you know that.”
“Then who does?” Bruce asked.
The boy stood and took a few steps backward, already turning away. The rain picked up again, wind tugging at the boy’s hoodie as he moved along the rooftop edge. “You’re gettin’ closer.”
“Just remember,” he called over his shoulder, “judgment ain’t always about punishment. Sometimes it’s about what you carry after.”
“Wait,” Bruce said, suddenly desperate. “I still don’t know your name.”
The boy paused, just for a second, then glanced back with a crooked half-smile. “Yes, you do,” he said, sadly and bitterly at the same time despite the smile on his face. “That’s kinda the problem.”

Summary
In which Damian, a half-fae changeling, goes on a quest to ‘catch’ his father, and along the way picks up new siblings like they’re Pokémon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mother often told Damian stories about his father. The great Batman and how clever and strong he was, able to live within a Fae court without losing his name, freedom, or form. It was a feat unreplicated by any human before, and Mother thought it likely there would be no human after. There were humans who had outsmarted the Fae, who had run away or won their Games, but to actually live among them? For more than a mere Dance or day? The Court still spoke of him in awed whispers.
The great Batman who no one could catch.
It was why she’d chosen him, in the end. Mother could have had any human, and had proven so by catching many of them over the years, but it was this Batman who intrigued her, challenged her, and had proven himself to be the best above all others. She’d tried to catch him daily, but he’d seen through every trick, avoided every trap. The more time passed, the longer Mother’s admiration for him grew, and the more she challenged him, the more he reciprocated until…

Summary
Jason knows hypervigilance when he sees it. To the untrained eye it surely looks like the kid isn’t focusing on anything but the ground before him, but his attention is stretching out across the entire courtyard—Jason would bet on it. He can see it in the way his head cocks just the slightest bit toward every sound and every movement, the way his foot shifts almost too minutely to see any time someone moves too quickly, moving back into the beginning of what Jason knows will turn into a fighting pose if he finishes through with it. Some kind of guard, maybe? Even though he can’t be more than fucking twelve. Jason can’t imagine what a kid would be doing here.
More important than any of that, rank and relations aside…the boy’s eyes are a green bright enough that Jason can see the color from across the courtyard.
It's a very distinct green. Unnatural.
The only people he's ever seen with it are Ra's and himself.
And it isn’t genetic.
Heir or not, it means the boy must be very valuable to Ra's. He doesn't put just anyone in the Pit.

Babysitting. They'd woken him up to babysit.
He should have stayed in the coffin.

Damian scowled, folding his arms. "Where is father? And I'm nothing like you."
"Kid, you're so much like me that Ra's once caught his bodyguards referring to you as 'little red riding hood'." He swallowed another bite before jumping off the counter, dusting his hands off. "And the rest of the clan went to Bludhaven till Saturday. S' just us."
