Summary
"Luthor stole some Wayne Tech technology to build portals and... Sorry, but do you know there's a flying sheet behind you?"
Bruce turned around immediately. There was a sheet suspended in mid-air, floating as if there was a breeze pushing it, even though the windows were all closed.
He had to thank the constant half-light at the manor and the distance that did not make Gordon see well that it was not a floating sheet, but a man wrapped in a sheet, blissfully asleep and unaware of the chaos he was causing.
Clark had warned him about some of his sleep problems.
Bruce had to come up with a story on the fly for the commissioner, and quickly.
"My house is haunted," Bruce quietly told the commissioner, without batting an eyelid.

Summary
“I don't know how to take care of myself. Let alone a child."
"Children."
Bruce looked away from the water to look at Athena, surprised. She smirked, “Do you think it will be just one? More will come. Abandoned children. Children who don't know which way is theirs. You will be their guide. You will be father of heroes, Bruce."
Bruce never wanted to deal with the gods, whatever pantheon they belonged to.
Gotham had enough problems without adding rancorous gods and mythological monsters into the mix.
But the gods won't leave him alone, and he finds himself the parent of the most powerful demigod of this generation, while the Triumvirate sinks its roots in Gotham to conquer the world.ABANDONED/DISCONTINUED. IF I EVER WRITE FOR THIS AU AGAIN IT WILL ON A SEPARATE FIC IN A SEPARATE SERIES.

Summary
"Batman," Wonder Woman was the first to recover from the surprise. "Who is your... ah... little companion?"
"Robin," he replied unperturbed, taking his usual seat next to Superman, who kept staring at him as if he were having a religious experience.
Green Lantern was the first to react, "Wait a moment! Wasn't Robin that blonde girl I saw when I had to pick up an alien criminal hiding in Gotham?"
"A blonde girl?" Green Arrow repeated. "Robin is a teenager. He's Speedy's best friend."
"I met Robin," Wonder Woman chimed in. "A sweet little boy. A big fan of mine, but he's not a teenager."
While the voices of the Lega became louder and louder, until Damian woke up completely, Batman groaned internally.
He didn't want to explain anything about his private affairs. Besides, there wasn't much to explain in the first place: he had told the truth. Just, not as everyone expected.

Summary
“Bruce Wayne adopted two more kids and no one knows about it?!”
“Well, they're not really official adoptions, but Bruce is working on it.”
“Okay, how did this happen? I want all the details!” she exclaimed, her sad sandwich forgotten on the plate.
“Well…for one of them, it could be my fault…”
Lois widened her eyes, then moved closer to the other to make sure no one heard them, "Clark, did you get your boyfriend pregnant?"

Summary
"Well?" Bruce said impatiently. “What do you want to know?”
“How about you tell me why the hell I should pretend to be your boyfriend to your adopted son?” Superman asked, his mouth feeling dry and strangely itchy again.
Bruce, master tactician, did it with a single sentence, "This way I don't have to tell him I'm Batman."
Silence again. Then, as if shaken out of his torpor, Superman blurted out a sincere, “Bruce…what the hell?!”

‘Don’t tell Bruce.’

"No," Jason replied, and hung up.
