    Summary

    “I'm not the same person I was back in high school,” Clark says, “and I doubt they all are, either. What would be the point?”

    “Oh, Clark,” Bruce is suddenly holding Clark's face with both of his hands, “the point is that I'm going to land us in a helicopter somewhere for all your classmates to see.”

    Clark sighs and closes his eyes.

    “Say 'yes', Clark,” Bruce orders.

    Clark doesn't open his eyes, just says, “Yes, Clark.”

    Summary

    “The Red Hood has been good for Gotham,” Robin continued. “Crime in Park Row decreased by sixty one percent almost as soon as you showed up, and that’s even taking into account all the crime you commit. Drug overdoses have decreased by twenty two percent in adults and seventy nine percent in minors. Homeless minors are ninety two percent less likely to—”

    “Kid,” Jason interrupted. “Enough statistics. What the hell is this about?”

    Robin slowly lowered the tablet with his powerpoint presentation and looked up at Red Hood.

    “You care about Gotham,” Robin summarised. “Gotham needs Batman. Batman is missing and so is Nightwing. We need you to fill in for Batman.”

    “You want me to cover Batman’s patrols?” Jason clarified.

    “No,” Robin said. “I want you to be Batman.”

    Jason bluescreened.

     

    (Or: Batman and Nightwing mysteriously disappear before Red Hood has even started antagonising them, Robin is desperate, Gotham needs Batman, and Red Hood is Batman-Shaped.)

    Summary

    It was like living in the Twilight Zone. Everyone else believed fervently in Bruce Wayne’s reputation. He was a flirty, stupid, and entitled drunk whose only redeeming quality was his bleeding heart. And yet every time Clark spoke with Wayne, the man was clever, mischievous, and sober with an indecipherable ulterior motive.

    And no one believed Clark. Not Lois, not his parents, not even Batman.

    Summary

    He’s nine again– nine and new and knows so many things now so rather than try to go back–

    He thinks he has the chance to make things right.

    The bright blue trainers he puts on are a pair he hasn’t worn in forever, something he never thought about after he grew out of them (will grow out of?) a year from now, and sets off into the night and into the rain.

    The plan he has in his brain is not really a plan, moreso just a couple of half thrown ideas and maybe five steps into building back the life he had in the most painless way he could.

    Maybe, he thinks, maybe this plan can start off with the family he misses– because he’s sixty and most of them too injured or too old or too dead–

    Call him selfish but he misses them. He would rather find them than get himself back into that lonely existence he called a life before he woke up at nine.

    Dick makes do because that’s all he can do really.

    -🦇-

    Dick gets sent back in time, but don't worry, he's got this. (Probably)

    Summary

    Somewhere in the multiverse, there's a universe where letting his children dress up in capes and follow him into vigilantism seems like a good idea.

    Bruce is determined that it isn't going to be this one . . . Despite his children's repeated attempts to convince him otherwise.

    (Or: "When you're eighteen, you can do what you want. Until then, no capes.")

    Summary

    One night, Robin spots a kid with an overnight bag on a rooftop, and he jumps to the obvious conclusion: the kid's trying to run away. The kid is doing a really bad job of it, though, and that's the sort of thing Robin just has to correct.

    Except the kid is Tim Drake, and Tim isn't actually trying to run away. But "running away" does sound a little better than "stalking bat-themed vigilantes through the crime-infested streets of Gotham every night." So he lets Robin have this one.

    Besides, that's the end of it, right? Robin might have found Tim once, but no one ever looks for Tim a second time. Robin can think whatever he wants. They'll never see each other again.

    (They see each other again.)

    Summary

    Tim's parents faked their deaths and fled the country years ago, but neglected to take him with them. He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
    His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.

    or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

    Summary

    So, it didn’t start out like this.

     

    Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-

     

    So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.

     

    It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:

    “ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”

    --

    A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

    Jon finds Gertrude's statement under the floorboards of his office. Elias tries to intervene, too late; Jon's not going to let it go.

    Elias doesn't mind eliminating people who get in his way.

    He's less clear on how to proceed when they show up to work the following morning.

    (If there's one thing Jon excels at, after all, it's refusing to let go.)

    Summary

    Having reached the end of his rope, Mo Xuanyu offered up his body to the spirit of the Yiling Patriarch in return for getting vengeance on his maternal family. He thought he'd be dead, his soul dissolved into nothingness. Instead, he's sharing his body with the soul of the Yiling Patriarch.

    As they make the best of this situation, they end up on the road of finding the body parts of a mysterious ferocious corpse with the highly regarded, and incredibly handsome, Lan Wangji. But what else will they uncover about each other on the way?

    ----
    Wei Wuxian cupped his chin in thought, a small hum pursing through his lips. Well, despite your ill intentions in summoning me, you still brought me back. I didn’t ask nor want to be, but now that we’re in the same situation, it’s better to help each other, no? I still want to ask how you came across my research notes later, I haven’t forgotten that.

    Mo Xuanyu zeroed in on the sense of indifference that Wei Wuxian expressed. Indifference was fine, and seemed to be the source for how easily Wei Wuxian accepted their current circumstances. …Making the best of things. Okay. I can understand that.

    “Are you sure?” Eleni asked him. “Boys can be more than a handful, you know, and you have—well, quite a job already.”

    George glanced back at Roach. The boy had his arms wrapped around himself, hands cupping his elbows where the branches had been.

    “We’ll make it work,” he said. “They say it takes a village, but a court should do quite nicely.”

    Summary

    Life as an escort in Hong Kong is a high-stakes drama: messy relationships, torrid affairs, and lives at stake every day. The Watcher on the 4th floor balcony sees it all, and spectates, even when she is directly involved. Then life became a ghost story: scraping her way to survival and death became her daily routine in the Ghost Realm, yet that still wasn't enough to move her from her side of the screen.

    Change came in on fox paws.

    “Tommy?” Tubbo’s voice was bright, and incredibly confused. Tommy whirled on him instantly, grabbing him by the shoulders and peering intensely into his eyes.

    “Tubbo. My good man. Do not attend any festivals. Especially not ones hosted by Schlatt. Nothing good ever happens at festivals.”

    Tubbo stared at him, wide-eyed. “Tommy, what?”

    ———

    Tommy gets sent back to the past, and he is going to make it everyone’s problem.
