    Summary

    “Tony,” Tony says, “Stark.” He watches the kid’s face for any hint of recognition but there’s none.

    “Hence why those guys want you to build a Stark missile.”

    “Right.”

    The kid snorts, “what, do you work in R&D at your own company?” When Tony just gives him a blank look he clears his throat, “nevermind. So if you can build a missile I bet you can figure out a way to get us out of here.”

    Tony sighs, turning his face away. He’s so tired. “I can’t build them that weapon, kid.”

    Now it’s the kid’s turn to look confused. “Then build something else,” he says simply.

    **

    Or, AU where Dick Grayson has an unfortunate run in with a wizard in Gotham City and finds himself tossed across the multiverse to a cave in Afghanistan with a billionaire who hasn't gone through his self-improvement journey yet.

    Very well integrated crossover. No loose plot threads, everyone was true to their character, and there was still a (mostly) happy ending.

    Summary

    Jack and Janet abandon Tim in Gotham.

    Because, you know, tiny mute autistic eight-year-olds are TOTALLY adept at taking care of themselves.

    Kind of a stand-alone from Already/Basics stories. Same characters, different what-if scenario.

    Loved this one. The TWs are heavy, but handled just distantly enough that it wasn't too much (ie: abuse was discussed after the fact, and the SA didn't happen to a main character). Was still really heart breaking, but it followed by so much love and fluff that overall I left this story feeling so positive. The fluff wasn't silly or over the top, it was necessary and just what you want to see from a competent and kind family. I'd recommend it for the actual affection between Bruce and Alfred alone, because that isn't covered enough!
    And I read this before reading the first parts, so it's not necessary. This is a full story on its own, you can jump right in.

    tomato face: wait what the ffuck am i saying

    tomato face: tim we’re not getting married

    Timkerbelle: It’s a hypothetical. Keep up.

    Summary

    Two Justice Leagues converge in one single universe. One key difference quickly makes itself apparent.

    (or, the Justice League of Earth is brought to a universe where a parallel version of the League doesn’t have a Batman; instead, they have the Arkham Prince)

    Can't figure out what I want to say about this. It was excellent. Could read a dozen more fics exploring what happens next in both universes. So, so, happy to be introduced to the concept of the Arkham Prince, but it was brought to life so thoroughly by holding it up side-by-side with our Batman. And the levels of intimacy? Brilliant.
