    Life in Gotham, but Gotham Knows Everything by

    Summary

    Listen, Bruce Wayne was great at the whole secret identity thing. Or he had been until all the Robins started popping up. There's only so many coincidences that the people of Gotham can ignore until it clicks. And when child after child started popping up in Wayne manor, and a matching child popped out from Batman's cape, there was no denying it anymore. So yes, Gotham knew that Batman was Brucie, who was also Bruce Wayne. But if the only thing that kept that man sane was dressing up in a bat costume and protecting the city then who were they to stop him?

    And so the game began. Everyone knew Batman's identity (except the black haired, blue eyed kids although even that backfired eventually) and Gotham would do everything to protect Bruce from the knowledge that yes, the entire city did actually know what he got up to in his free time.

    Shenanigans ensue.

    Summary


    throes /THrōz/:

    intense or violent pain and struggle, especially accompanying birth, death, or great change.

     

    The ripples cascading throughout all of reality (now, then, tomorrow) create big, and small, changes. Time refuses to falter. Some things never happen, a few change, and an awful sense of dread touches a couple more lives than it ever would have.

    Which is all well and good, but. Danny's just doing his best with what he's got.

    This is a series about the long road home. Danny is an alcoholic. Jason Todd dies. Moving forward doesn't mean moving on, but someday you find yourself having done so anyway. Actions always have consequences, but everything is as it is supposed to be.

    Probably.

    (An unrelated and outside POV adjacent to what happens when you punch the Multiverse. A Crisis on Infinite Earths, indeed.)

    Welp... We've Seen Weirder? by Anonymous

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Danny Phantom

    Summary

    Danny needs a place to lay low. He thought he'd find peace in the Infinite Realms but everyone is trying to pick a fight with him! Leave this Halfa alone!
    Clockwork has an idea that leads to Danny striking a deal with Lady Gotham. In exchange for sanctuary, Danny will filter her corrupted ectoplasm. She tells him that if he's in any danger, then Danny may go to her Knights. But Danny's not the type of person to go asking others for help. Especially if he thinks he can handle it by himself.

    What Danny doesn't know is that the Knights of Gotham are very interested in meeting this new Meta that keeps popping up. He doesn't know that Lady Gotham is very invested in him meeting her Knights. Danny doesn't know that he's caught the eye of a certain undead Knight.

    Danny is not ready for this new stage of his life, but he's going to commit to being a True Gothamite!

    Summary

    Bruce was so bored. That seemed to be the norm for a Justice League meeting.

    It wasn’t his first time visiting the team, after Clark introduced them he tagged along to some of the meetings as an almost member.

    He enjoyed listening to the happenings of each of the heroes…however…there wasn’t much going on recently and it was a whole lot of filler.

    So the whispering in his ears was even more distracting than normal.

    A Ghost of Yourself by

    Summary

    Tim Drake died when Robin cut his line. There was no flag pole or ledge to catch himself on. No backup grapple at the ready. Lucky for him, Gotham has never been one to give up her soldiers. Now an undead that is permanently bound to Gotham as her protector, Tim learns the importance of self-worth. And that maybe his "family" isn't what's best for him.

    -or-

    Tim heard Jason joking about being a zombie and said, "hold my beer." Featuring semi-sentient Gotham.

    *rating changed to mature due to gore and swearing TWs are in the chapter notes*

    Summary

    Eiden Vidal is a reincarnated twenty-year-old woman trapped in the body of a fifteen-year-old girl—now living in Gotham City in the year 1999. She remembers her past life, knows she’s in the DC Universe, and has discovered she has terrifying powers: she can disintegrate matter into ash, exhale and inhale ash in suffocating waves, and even turn herself into a floating mass of it.

    Sorry Gotham, Batman is still training with his Tibetan monks. Guess she’ll have to make do and debut as Gotham’s first crime-fighter in years.

    Jason Todd: Regular College Student by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types  

    18 Jan 2024

    Tags
    Summary

    “What do you want, my son?” Talia asked him. “What do you truly want?”

    And when Jason pushed aside his obsession with Bruce, the answer was so clear. He knew exactly what he wanted. He knew what he’d always wanted, ever since he was that little street rat who spent money he needed for food on making himself look clean. Because he’d needed to look clean and presentable to get into the public libraries. Because they wouldn’t have let a dirty homeless kid touch the books.

    “I want to go to college.”

    And Talia had made that happen for him.

    (AU where, at the end of his League of Assassins training, Jason decides to go to Metropolis for college instead of going back to Gotham for revenge. Things spiral from there. The title is so sarcastic by the way. There’s nothing regular about Jason Todd.)

    Wait, I'm a what? by

    11 May 2026

    Tags
    Summary

    Danny would like to say for the record that it was not his fault.

    In fact, Danny would say that it was entirely Clockwork's fault. After all, he wouldn't even be in this situation if it wasn't for that cryptic time god.

    But what was his fault was the fact that he kept helping.

    He kept taking the cash from the assholes messing with the residents who lived in the area (and damn there were a lot of assholes near where he lived). He kept accepting their offers of food. So because of this new routine that kept him able to afford to rent out his shitty (and possibly illegal) apartment and the hunger pangs sufficiently satisfied, rumors grew.

    tldr; after Clockwork dropped of Danny in Gotham he tries to make the best out of the situation which includes helping out some people. Except along the way that led to rumors that he was an up-and-coming crime boss. A rumor he was largely unaware of.

    Not Abandoned! Slow updates.
