    Summary

    “Damian,” Bruce says, very slowly, “do you know someone named Jason Todd?”

    Damian frowns at him. “No?”

    “Real tall guy,” the Joker suddenly pipes up from the holding cell, “white streak in his hair. Kinda looks like Bruce Wayne, if you ask me!”

    Damian blinks. “Oh. Well, I do know a Jason that fits that description, but his last name is not Todd.”

    “What the hell is it then?”

    Damian frowns harder. “Al Ghul.”

    And just like that, Bruce’s worldview goes to complete and utter shit.

    Or: Jason decides that if someone has to be a monster in this world’s shadows, it might as well be him. This decision might’ve been influenced by the fact that Talia al Ghul decided to spring her son on him and also gaslight everyone into believing that Jason is her eldest child. Also, he kills his pseudo-grandfather and kind of accidentally becomes the new R’as al Ghul, because by now, he’s way too deep in Talia’s con-shit to back out.

    …It all goes over surprisingly well.

    Summary

    When Harry Potter, freshly four-hundred (or so) years old, came to this world, he had not been expecting to fall deeply in love with the dashing gentleman that routinely visited the café from where he drank his tea.

    Of course, that was not to imply that Harry would do less than his utmost to woo the object of his sincerest affections.

    -

    The Bats were in agreement: whoever this "Harry Potter" was, they didn't like him. At all. Who'd this twenty-something year old think he was?! Like hell they'd let their Alfred get stolen away from them by some no-good, seducing little punk.

    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

    Summary

    Pethar remembers the sky when it broke.

    He remembers fire, and noise, and the way his world—his home—was there one moment and gone the next. He remembers being put into the shuttle, being told to survive, to live, even if it meant being alone.

    Then Earth.

    Loud, bright, overwhelming Earth, with its strange air and stranger people, and a city that never seems to stop hurting. Gotham isn’t Varos, and humans aren’t anything like his own kind… but they take him in anyway. The Waynes are confusing, stubborn, and far too kind for their own good.

    It’s fine. Everything is fine. He is definitely not slowly becoming attached to a pack of emotionally damaged humans who insist on feeding him and calling him “kid.”

    Definitely not.

    (or: alien spider-child survives planetary extinction, gets adopted by Gotham’s most dysfunctional family, and slowly starts to hate the idea of leaving)
