Summary
Eighteen-year-old Chloé Bourgeois dies bleeding out on concrete, killed for choosing to do the right thing in saving a stranger.
She should be gone.
Instead she wakes up in Paris, fourteen again, with every memory of her brutal life in New York after escaping Audrey’s clutches and her violent death intact. Her soul and memories hits her younger body like a wrecking ball: a near-fatal collapse in front of her entire class.
The cause is Blazze, the phoenix Kwami of Revolution who drags her soul out of the dark and offers her one impossible bargain: rise from the ashes, rewrite your life and burn yourself into someone better, or let the old Chloé win forever.
But second chances aren’t clean. They scar. They cost. And while Chloé struggles to survive the memories living inside her, Paris keeps turning, Hawk Moth keeps his relentless hunt for the Miraculous, and the people she used to hurt are still right there… expecting to meet the girl she used to be.
But she is not the same girl they once knew…
(Original idea of Chloé being a singer and travel back in time by https://luluy33art.tumblr.com/ please go see their AUs on tumblr, she’s amazing!)

Summary
Jason didn’t even remember getting dressed. One moment, he was grabbing his backpack; the next, he was sprinting halfway across campus, sliding into the back row of his 8 AM lecture, barely even winded.
Then his classmate gave him a look. Then two classmates did. Then three.
Then someone muttered, “Dude, if you’re gonna cosplay Red Hood, at least carry the helmet. Coward.”
Jason blinked.
He looked down.
There was a red bat across his chest.
Oh no.
In which Jason goes viral after accidentally showing up to class in his Red Hood gear. Dick tries to make it better. Tim might have made it worse. The rest of his siblings are just enjoying the memes.

Summary
Jason was fifteen, barely five foot, and underweight for his age when he died. When he came back to his body, suddenly he was too tall, too scarred, too much, too different. And he just... never got used to it.

Summary
Tim Drake is good at surviving.
He knows how to keep his head down, how to read a room, how to make himself useful enough to be tolerated. Between school, a café job, and a home that never quite feels like one, Tim doesn’t expect much more than that.
Babysitting Damian Wayne was supposed to be simple. Temporary. A paycheck.
Instead, Tim finds himself pulled into a family that notices too much, bruises that linger, smiles that don’t reach his eyes, silences that say more than words ever could.
The Batfamily sees one of their own.
And Tim?
Tim is learning what it feels like when someone stays.
