    Summary

    The Justice League has never met Batman.

    Gotham is treated like an isolated anomaly — a city handled by “local vigilantes” no one fully understands. Heroes avoid it. Villains fear it. Surveillance fails constantly.

    Then a dangerous metahuman escapes League custody and flees into Gotham.

    The League follows.

    And discovers why nobody enters Gotham twice willingly.

    Summary

    Gotham was built on a cave system. Batman has referenced a Bat Cave before. Tim is currently in the cave system. He is in the cave system that he entered from Drake Manor. Drake Manor is right next door to where Batman- The Bruce Wayne- lives. Holy Cavern, Batman! Tim had just accidentally wandered into the Bat Cave’s cave system.

    OR

    Tim, having found a weird hole after a storm, decides to go exploring ignoring the fact that This Is Gotham and They Probably Have Cursed Stuff Down There.

    Luckily, it was just a cave system that spans the entire Gotham underground. Unluckily, Tim is a very curious child.

    Summary

    When Matches Malone strides into Red Hood’s meeting and settles in among the new recruits, Jason Todd has never been more grateful for the full face helmet. Why was dad Bruce Batman here…?

    Then Jason thinks back to the gala and curses internally. Bruce had obviously figured out from their encounter at the gala who Red Hood really is, and has decided to… what? Taunt him? Anger flaring, Jason refuses to react to the persona that Jason himself had once helped Bruce to dress up as. Whatever this is, if Bruce wants to play dress up and look like a fool, who is Jason to stop him.

    ___________

    Bruce isn’t sure what to expect when he walks into the meeting led by Red Hood. Even though his recent ‘rescue’ at the hands of Hood had Bruce looking at the new crime lord's activities with a fresh light, there was still the more pressing concern.

    Red Hood had deliberately gone for and pressed the emergency beacon hidden on his belt. It could simply be that Red Hood had observed one of them using it. Or perhaps this newest criminal to Gotham just thought Batman was partial to the billionaire as some rumors suggested.

    Or Red Hood knows Bruce Wayne’s secret.

    Summary

    Fresh out of Arkham and done waiting for apologies that never come, Jason Todd leaves Gotham behind with nothing but a duffel bag and his motorcycle. He heads west—no destination, no plan—just the promise of silence and the hope that maybe, somewhere, he'll remember how to breathe again.

    In Star City, he finds a small apartment and a fragile kind of peace. His neighbor is Roy Harper: single dad, hero, too charming for his own good. Roy doesn’t recognise him—doesn’t know Red Hood, doesn’t know Jason’s alive—and Jason isn’t ready to tell him.

    But the road doesn’t end in Star City. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting, and love doesn’t erase the past. Jason still carries Gotham in his scars, and his name in someone else’s voice. Yet in quiet moments—over breakfast with Lian, in the hush between Roy’s laughter and his own—Jason starts to believe in something like home. Not the one he left behind, but the one he’s building now, one breath, one brick, one heartbeat at a time.

    Because maybe Ithaca was never a city. Maybe it was a person. Maybe it was him, learning to stay.

    Summary

    Bruce didn't intend for Batman to become a bat cryptid guarding Gotham, but it works in keeping crime down so he rolls with it, his gaggle of children eagerly diving headfirst into the role, but when the Justice League comes sniffing around the edges of his territory and his kids decide to do the funniest thing ever, can Batman keep up the biggest con of his life?

    But when has anything ever been simple in Gotham

    Summary

    "Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.


    Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead.

    Summary

    If the Bats are a legend in Gotham, then they are but a passing whisper to the rest of the world. An overheard sentence that stops abruptly when it's clear they are being listened to. A secret widely discussed among only certain circles, and yet never fully put down in print.

    When the Justice League stumble onto Gotham's biggest secret, they embark on their quest to discover more about the Bats, and find a lot more than they expected...

    Summary

    “You would love him, do you remember telling Bruce you wanted a little brother to boss around?" Dick made a small laugh seemingly at the memory, "He would give you a run for your money, the baby bird doesn't give up. You would have loved him.”

    Jason had planned on killing the kid not long ago.

    He had called him things like Replacement and made detailed plans to initiate his demise and suffering.

    .
    .
    Or

    Jason, realizing he had been slightly brainwashed, decides instead of cracking the new Robin's skull, he was going to take a crack at a normal life.

    Too bad these damn bats can't keep out of trouble.

    Summary

    Jason Todd is back in Gotham as the ruthless crime lord Red Hood, but he's just not ready to reveal his identity yet.

    Jason Todd also tends to get shitfaced drunk in random bars in Crime Alley and do impulsive shit - like killing the Joker after he breaks out of Arkham for the thousandth time.

    It's only then that Batman starts hunting him down.

    But not for the reasons you might be thinking.

    And Jason Todd cannot resist pranking the Prince of Gotham.

    Summary

    "And yet all he can do is wait. Wait for the aging subway to get to his stop. He can’t seem to release the tension as he waits, constantly subtly surveying around him. He looks at the stairs down to his station and fear grips his throat. He stutters on a breath of the hypothetical of seeing a black clad figure come sweeping down towards him. He swallows the spit in his dry mouth, the motion triggering a stab of pain from the healing wound across his neck. He palms the gun in his right hip in anticipation and just watches the stairs for a minute, letting them consume his focus. He shakes his head when it is clear that the steps remain as empty as they were when he got here. He still cannot help the nervous flutter in his stomach and nagging feeling that he is on borrowed time. "

    AKA AU where Jason does not attack Tim post giving Bruce the Joker Ultimatum. Instead he flees Gotham and maybe finds himself in a small town in Kansas. Also he can't speak

    Summary

    “You’re the Batman,” Clark said, trying to keep his voice warm, even. “I’ve heard about you.”

    Still no response. The wings shifted slightly, the sound low and dry, like wind moving through bone.

    Even folded, they loomed. Easily twelve, maybe fourteen feet in total wingspan. The joints flexed with subtle micromovements, like the Bat was resisting the urge to spring forward or flee. And the texture… rough, almost scaly, with no sign of feathers. All tendon and membrane. Like something prehistoric.

    Clark felt a shiver crawl down his spine.

    It wasn’t fear. Not exactly.

    “I’ve been looking for you,” he said, taking a cautious step forward, hands open at his sides. “Not you you, I mean. Others like me. Metas. People doing the right thing on their own terms.”

    No answer.

    “I thought you’d be taller,” he added, offering a small grin.

    Nothing. Not even a twitch.

    “Or… less grim.”

    Or, Bruce's time over the years, gaining children, loosing them, joining the JL, all while the JL is under the impression that the man in the batsuit is some sort of cryptid.

    Summary

    The Colony of Gotham is an urban legend that is whispered about in the dangerous city. It's said the Colony is a family of demons and spirits that stalk the night, hunting for the souls of the guilty.

    When Bruce became Batman, he'd never intended to be mistaken for a demon. He was happy to lean into it, though, and as he gained his partners -- as his family grew -- they all followed suit.

    Summary

    When Batman actually laughs at something Nightwing says, the Justice League knows something's up. Hal's investigation reveals the impossible truth: Batman and his growing family aren't human vigilantes—they're bat demons, one of Earth's most ancient and now endangered species. As Bruce undergoes a difficult emergence process, the League gets their first invitation to the hidden Colony beneath Gotham, where they'll meet the intimidating Patriarch Thomas Wayne and discover just how little they knew about their dark teammate. Some secrets were meant to be shared, even if they come with wings and glowing eyes.

    Directly inspired by the two stories attached to this fic! I cannot recommend them enough.

    Summary

    The caption read: “They argue like an old married couple. #HeyGreenLanternHere #MomAndDadAreFighting #Superman #Batman #GrayGhost #JusticeLeague”

    He didn’t think about it again until the next morning, when his phone wouldn’t stop buzzing and clearly tried to kill itself by falling off his bedside table. When he finally opened his phone he had a text from Barry that just said: “YOU JUST BROKE THE INTERNET!!”

    Hal was confused until he realized one of his videos must have gone viral. Then he was smug.

    Or, Hal broke the internet with one post, and now Clark and Bruce are trending for all the wrong (or right?) reasons.
