Summary
How, exactly, do you tell the Justice League you weren’t a feral cryptid haunting Gotham?
That single, most ridiculous question had been gnawing at Bruce’s mind for the past week. He could let them believe it—he had certainly let worse rumors fester when it served his purposes—but he couldn’t. He just couldn’t.
or
The continuation of Unintentional Cryptid.
Bruce tries to clear up the small misunderstanding but every single time he interacts with the Justice League, it gets worse

The Study Of Batology by maroonio
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Justice League - All Media Types
14 Jun 2026

Summary
Fanfic of another fanfic, heavily inspired by "Operation: I am Human" by StandingBi.
The Justice League believes Batman is a cryptid due to his tendency to use bird calls, hisses and grunts rather than words, odd mannerisms and other pieces of evidence that don't help Bruce's case. He struggles to clear the misunderstanding and continues making poor social decisions, which only fuels the fire.
Chap 1: Hal gets the crazy idea to flash a laser pointing during a Justice League meeting. Bruce believes a sniper has somehow broken into headquarters, and chases after the laser. Everyone gravely misinterprets the situation, believing it to be some sort of instinctual urge. It spirals into something comedic, and entirely avoidable.
+ Various instances of the JL charting Bruce’s poor social skills to an animalistic instinct.

Summary
Bruce was…small. His tailored suit draped over his diminished stature like a blanket and made him look so terribly tiny and fragile, like the slightest wind could blow him over.
For a moment, Tim stood stockstill, unsure what to do because his father - his larger than life father - had turned into a child.
Bruce is de-aged back to the night his parents were shot. He doesn't remember the Bats but he knows they're family. Bonding ensues.

Summary
It started with a stupid fight on December 18th. Tim said he should spend Christmas with the Kents-"at least they're nicer!" -and Bruce, for once, didn't argue.
By Christmas Eve, Bruce has sent his boys to Smallville, given Alfred the holidays off, and stands alone in front of his parents' graves, convinced he's given them everything they need: a way to be happy without him.
Then a man throws a brick at him, and Bruce wakes up fourteen years old in a manor that feels too big, wearing clothes that don't fit, staring at a family portrait that doesn't make sense.
Or: A heartfelt story about learning to be loved, the groceries we buy for the people we care about, and what happens when a father finally realises his children aren't going anywhere.

Summary
And for all the love there is in family, there is conflict and miscommunication. The Wayne family members know how to win intergalactic wars but cannot win the war against their own demons. However, if there is one thing Batman taught them, it is that they are never alone in their battles.
Such a shame he can't take his own advice.

Summary
Gotham was literally cursed but no one believed Bruce. He took it upon himself to fix it and after decades of searching, that solution came to him in the form of a little blue vial. Bruce was to take the curse within himself to temper it into something manageable.
He thinks the others would call him stupid and stop him if they knew about this, but (un)fortunately for Bruce, his family hasn't spoken to him for forever. There was no one here to stop him.
He downed the liquid and woke up as his nine-year-old self.
Ch3 Excerpt:
“Mother, do you remember those funny clouds above people’s heads I told you about? Well, I’m doing something about them but the process is very lonely. Or not. I think it’s just me. I’m the problem. I can’t seem to get people to like me enough to stay. I know–-… I’m aware that it’s due to my own shortcomings but sometimes, it feels like even the worst monsters have people that love them and yet I have no one.”
Bruce let out a humourless chuckle and rested his forehead on his knees.
“I just wish there was someone that cared about me.”

Medwhump May Day 7- Alt prompt: "Talk to me"
Most people think that silence is far preferable to screaming, but Dr Robinavitch knows that the opposite is true in the ER. Screaming means the patient has the ability to maintain their airway, whether that's a construction worker with a crushed pelvis or a newborn baby testing out her lungs for the first time. Silence is a worrying sign.
OR
In hour 15, curled up in pedes, Robby is silent and still.

Summary
As soon as the elevator doors slide open, Jack Abbot is hit by the commotion of a busy ER. Alarms blare from a nearby trauma room, triggering a rush of medical staff towards it. A phone rings at the main desk, there’s a bark of laughter from the security office, and, from across the other side of the room, Jack can hear raised voices that soon get drowned out by the sirens of an approaching ambulance.
He’s never felt more at home.
There’s only one thing wrong.
He can’t find Robby.

Summary
He mutters, "I'm not letting go until you tell me what you're going to do when you've crossed state lines."
"I told you," Robby huffs, "Beer. Hot apple cider. Maybe a chicken pot pie on the porch of some good Samaritan who takes pity on me."
"Yeah? Chicken pot pie?" Jack hums, raising his eyebrows, receiving an affirming nod from the other. "Gonna go on a stereotypical-ass spirit journey? That's what you're going to do, Michael? That's the reason you hugged me like that? Like you were savoring it?"
/
And Michael Robinavitch would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for Jack Abbot.
