Summary
Richard Parker dreamt of a life with the bats. Everyday, he mourned a family and a life that he never had. The name ‘Grayson’ loomed over him, even though logically, he knew, the name never belonged to him.
The life he led was full of love, of stability. So what was the void that consumed him? Why did he dream of flying?
OR: Peter in Gotham fic except Dick Grayson and Richard Parker were the same person, instead of being alternate versions of each other. Also, I fuck with the mcu timeline because canon is merely inspiration.
Title from Promise by Laufey.

Summary
Dick awoke on the couch, a blanket placed over them and some of his siblings asleep on him. His eyes roved over them, before resting on the figure sitting on the armchair. It was a kid in Dick’s robin costume. A kid with bright blue eyes, freckles and curly black hair. A kid who had blood running down his cheek, down his body, seeping into his clothes-
“Forgive me.” Dick said to his younger brother who was gone too soon.

Summary
His face is pale. Lips curled up in a grotesque smile. Torn up the cheeks, oozing blood that drips onto the cement floor. One hand rips at his dark hair, greasy and limp over manic eyes. The other hangs at his side, limply clinging to a gun. “Ha ha ha-” Half frantic laughter, half distraught sobs that rattle through his chest.
Between them, the Joker’s body. Blood blossoming around his head. Brain matter spattered on the floor. Smiling. Eyes vacantly staring up at the ceiling.
“Hahahahaha-”
Bruce approaches slowly. Like he’s approaching a skittish animal. “Tim,” he says softly, and the boy blinks at him, still laughing, still sobbing. There are tears in his eyes. “Tim, put down the gun.”

Summary
“Let’s be real, Dick. There’s only one person in this family you’ll listen to and–”
Before she could finish explaining Dick was at her side, his hand around her wrist stopping her from what she was about to do.
“Don’t.” he ordered. Babs was taken aback by his tone. Dick never talked to her like that. Dick never touched her like that. She yanked her hand away in defiance– but she didn’t patch through her call to Bruce.
Babs Gordon knows something is up with Dick, but she can't figure out what since he's insisting he is fine. So she enlists the help of (most) of the BatFam in figuring out what the oldest sibling is going through and needs support with.
But he's the one making it hardest for them to help him.

Summary
What happens when two street kids are given the opportunity to make their lives into something more? They bond over anything and everything, movies, books, video games, and just when she starts to feel safe, he’s gone. Dead. Murdered. Her world crumbles, there’s no moving on, she clings to that boy she used to know for years. Unbeknownst to her, he wasn’t really gone for good. The truth always finds its way to the surface, and it’s past time he faced it. Will they ever be the same? Can he have the place in her life that he used to occupy? Only time will tell, and they may not have much.
The Hangman is conducting experiments.
( A/N: finally gave the summary a rewrite lol, don't expect this to be a comic accurate story. i will do my best to keep characters how they are represented in their media but i'm not holding myself to any particular story line. consider this an AU if you will. check TW's. i will put chapter specific ones in the notes at the start of every chapter. anyways, essentially this is a story where you are jason's childhood best friend, don't expect everything to make perfect sense, we will gain more backstory as we progress. enjoy xx.)

Summary
They were quiet for a long moment, two birds nesting on a rooftop under the haze of the Gotham fog.
“You’ll catch me?” Robin whispered, words almost lost to the night air.
Robin watched him in a way that was different to the circus, different to Batman, different to the people he saved. He watched and he mimicked and he looked up to Nightwing in a way that made it all feel worth it.
“Every time,” Nightwing promised.
.
Dick Grayson was eighteen when he got a baby brother.
He was twenty-one when he lost him.
(He is twenty-five when he gets him back)

Summary
It’s not only the fact that their father is dead. It’s also the trembling of Dick’s hand when Tim breaks the news to him, through a call, as if they were mere cavemen. It’s Jason’s harsh looks, crashing down from his resentment and grief. It’s Cassandra’s empty eyes staring at the fancy coffin. It’s Alfred’s obsessive cleaning and his solemn face. It’s Damian’s green eyes silently begging him to stay.
It’s everything. It’s Bruce kicking the bucket before Dick got his life together.
OR
“It’s just the way it is,” Bruce muttered beside him, now with one of his many black turtlenecks and formal pants on. His feet were strangely bare. “Dying was never a bargain,” he said, taking two steps forward before inclining himself towards his lifeless body. He seemed to be inspecting his head wound. “Ouch, I’m never going to live this down.”
When Bruce turned to give him one of his trademarked half-smiles, as if waiting for Dick to laugh on cue, the technician cleared his throat.
Dick’s gaze refocused on Bruce’s cold body.
“Well…?”
“Yeah,” Dick let out, his voice shaky. “That’s him.”

Summary
“Danny?” a familiar voice calls out.

TW: Abuse
“I’m not asking you to make Damian give up Robin, I’m only telling you that you need to stop raising child soldiers! Is that all we are to you?! Pawns in your screwed up fucking mission? You don’t deserve to call yourself a father, in fact, you don’t even deserve to call yourself human you-!”
Bruce’s fist makes a resounding crack! as it hits Dick’s face. He topples to the ground, and is left to stare up at Bruce while the man towers over him.
“You have no right to have any say in how I parent my sons. Or have you forgotten that you’re not even one of them?”

Summary
It had only taken Peter about thirty minutes (of time not screaming out in pain and terror as his body pulled itself apart into a brightly colored conglomerate of molecules, something he did not want to think about) for Peter to figure out a few very important things about his situation.
1. Peter Parker was currently in a universe incredibly different from his own.
2. Peter Parker should under no circumstances interact with anyone running around dressed as some sort of bat or bird.
3. Peter Parker was completely and utterly alone.--
Or: Another Peter Parker wakes up in Gotham after getting snapped fic. Except this time, he's glitching!
[on hiatus for a month or so, but will be back soon! fully intend to finish >:)))]

“It’s for my sake, you say?” Dick finally asks and he does not sound angry at all, inquisitive is more like it. He wishes he knew what he was thinking.
“It is not for my sake Jay.” he finally says and smiles sadly. Jason does not understand. “Because there is a small little detail you’re forgetting and that detail changed everything.”
“Oh yeah, and what is that?”
Dick holds his gaze as he says. “You died.”

"No." Batman interjected.
"Batman, if you would allow me to finish my nomination then we may move on to the discussion." Diana said.

Despite his easy-going personality Hal can sense deeper troubles underneath the surface and with his identity as secretive as Batman's its hard to get a clear picture. He seems to know far too much about their local Bat and is far to intimate to be 'just friends' with Roy.

Summary
Neither asked to carry the burden they do on their shoulders.
But they do it, nonetheless, because it's all they know how to.
...neither thought they'd find someone who understood.Dick Grayson, the first Robin, the prodigy, the golden boy; Batman's true sucessor.
Clea Dessendre, the eldest daughter, the Mistress, the most experienced; The Dessendres Pride.
Both bear the burden, not of choice but by expectation.
The two meet; they have a lot more in common than either of them thought.__________________________
