    Summary

    You'd always heard the phrase "be careful what you wish for", but you had never paid it any mind. And though growing up you had wished, prayed even, for your family's attention, the yearning had slowed down considerably, enough for you to choose to move out from the hell that had become your life.

    But just before you can leave the old, creaky manor, your wishes finally come true. And it's only after that you learn to appreciate what you had, awful as it was. But maybe, just maybe, you can escape your suffocating family.

    Summary

    Damian's not stupid or naive enough to believe that anyone could truly love him.

     

    He's a murderer. An assassin. a demon.

     

    He's not a child. He's not something someone can love. He's a heartless, stone-cold killer.

     

    So why does it hurt so badly every time he's reminded of that?

    ...

    or, Damian believes that nobody in the family loves him, and only talk to him because they have to. He eventually does learn the truth of his family's feelings.

    Summary

    It's a well-known fact among cities like Metropolis, Central, and Star, if Gotham claims you there's no escaping it.

    Those who have lived in the cursed city don't often leave, most choosing to spend their entire lives there. The few that do try always find themselves returning, telling friends and loved ones that they MISSED the crime filled nightmare metropolis. Sometimes they're saved, sent by concerned friends and family to therapy or clinical institutions to try and save them from the strange darkness that lures them back.

    But either way, they're never the same.

    And those are only the regular, everyday citizens.

    So what happens

    when Gotham

    picks favorites?

    Summary

    After being burned by his father for refusing to fight him in an Agni Kai, thirteen-year-old Prince Zuko wants only two things: to restore his honor and re-earn his father's love, and to find some way to heal his face. So when a Fire Sage tells him there's a mystic spring deep under the castle that can grant him both things, he listens.

    The next thing he knows, he wakes up in the middle of a city with foul air, technology beyond his wildest dreams, and lunatics on every corner. Shortly after he firebends to protect himself, a man dressed mostly in black catches him.

    Who knew that being sent to another realm would be the best thing that ever happened to him?

    Summary

    In the shadows of Gotham, the streets belong to those who survive — and Jason Todd has learned the rules better than most. Known to the city’s kids as Red, he’s a protector without a symbol, a guardian without a cause, navigating alleys where hope is scarce and danger waits around every corner.

    When missing boys start disappearing from Crime Alley, Jason and his unlikely partner, Steph, must track the shadows behind the shadows. But the arrival of Nightwing and Red Robin complicates everything — trust is fragile, fear runs deep, and even heroes can become threats.

    Between fractured alliances, stolen moments of levity, and a city that never sleeps, Jason must protect the children who remind him of what he once was — while keeping his own demons at bay.

    In Gotham, family isn’t just blood. It’s survival. And for The Red Hood, it’s the only thing that matters.

    That is, until he catches the wrong attention.

    Summary

    Who knew that what he had been searching for all his life would come from another universe?
    He had thought himself above such things above yearning, above weakness, above the gnawing ache of loneliness that crept in during the quiet hours of the night. He had forged himself into a weapon, a blade honed by shadows and sharpened by blood. But blades, no matter how flawless, still break.
    Then he saw him.
    Dick Grayson but not his Dick. Older, worn by battles Damian had never fought, softened by joy. Damian had never known. A man who carried light even through scars. It was infuriating. It was intoxicating. It was everything Damian had never allowed himself to want.

    Summary

    “Thank you, thank you, thank you. You’re the best brother ever.” Duke said happily and the looks on everyone else’s faces were priceless. Jason looked angry, pissed as he would call it, for losing a title he never had. Tim’s mouth was open in shock, and he held onto his chest like it physically hurt him to hear Duke’s words. Damian was the angeriest out of all of them. The grip on his knife, mind you he wasn’t holding it earlier, was tight and he was glaring at Dick’s stupid smirk he had on his face. 

     

    Or On his way home from school, Duke stumbles across a flyer for a local scare house and decides it’s the perfect way to kick off spooky season. With a mix of charm and mild manipulation, he ropes the entire Batfamily into joining him. But what starts as harmless fun quickly twists into something far more sinister. As danger creeps closer, Duke remains completely oblivious, much to Bruce’s growing worry. Hopefully, everyone makes it out in one piece… emphasis on hopefully.

    Summary

    “You’ve got to be kidding me.” Duke groaned. “You’re not trick-or-treating in forty pounds of armour.”

    “It must be authentic,” Damian replied without hesitation. He lifted his chin with knightly gravity.

    An hour later, Duke caught him with a gleaming longsword in hand. The foam sword lay discarded on the floor like trash.

    “Damian!” Duke nearly choked on his tongue. “You cannot bring a real sword to trick-or-treating.”

    OR:

    It's Damian's first Halloween. He enlists Duke's help to find the perfect costume.

    Summary

    “Stop,” Damian said, voice dripping with deadly intent. “You will leave Thomas alone.”

    Mason blinked down at him, smirk tugging at his mouth. “What are you, his bodyguard?”

    “Yes.”

    The smirk faltered.

    Damian’s voice was quiet, almost conversational, but honed with an edge meant to cut. “If you persist, you will not like the consequences.”

    OR:

    Duke is being bullied. Damian has a lot to say about that.
