    The Cassandra Metaphor by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Justice League - All Media Types, Nightwing (Comics), Teen Titans - All Media Types  

    16 Sep 2025

    Tags
    Summary

    Through the carnage came a figure cloaked in shadow, she appeared to move through the bodies rather than step on top of them. Even standing somewhere around seven or eight feet tall, she was far too humanoid to be a foe, they had long since abandoned their ruse of playing at humanity. She wore a cloak that appeared to dissipate and knit together like threads of smoke, the gossamer threads like the grey of a new dawn. Under the hood, he could only just make out her eyes, a clouded sky blue, pupils, and her gaze unending.

    She stopped before him, their eyes meeting through his tears. There was no empathy in her gaze, only his own agony reflected back at him, though her hand was light as a soft breeze as she tipped his chin up.

    “Please,” Dick said, even though he didn’t know what he was asking for: release, mercy, death.

    “You long to go back.”

    “Yes.”

    “For a different outcome.”

    Dick nearly choked on the word, “yes.”

    “I can make it so. I can give you the gift of foresight, but I warn you, it comes at great sacrifice as it does for anyone else who it is bestowed upon.”

     

    Dick Grayson may not be able to change everything, but my god, is he going to try.

    Dick Grayson: A Case Study by

    Summary

    Dick rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. “I’m mostly used to sparring with my little brothers, it’s kind of just habit, and I was having fun. I didn’t want the match to be over too quick.”

    “Too quick?” Derek asked, eyebrows raised. “I’m twice your size, kid.”

    Dick shrugged. “So’s Bruce and we’re pretty much tied at this point, or at least according to the score board the kids started to keep for Saturday spars.”

    “Saturday spars?” Derek repeated, following him towards the locker room.

    Dick flashed him a smile. “What? Don’t have any weird family traditions?”

    “Not ones that include hitting each other,” Derek said

     

    OR The BAU gets a probationary profiler who is a little more than he appears at first glance. Or second. Or third. Just how many secrets can Dick Grayson be hiding from a team full of profilers?

    Summary

    It was a story they’d told each other often, over too much kvas. A running joke between them, what they would do if they ever decided to leave it all behind.

    She’d never dreamed they actually would.

    Inej, and Kaz, and what comes after.

    An Ode to the Passage of Time - When You Don't Feel it by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types  

    09 Oct 2024

    Tags
    Summary

    “Drake,” Damian says, clicking his tongue. “We are not prepared for unknown variables. Someone knowing would undoubtedly change how they act, which would have a snowball effect on the rest of the day. Therefore rendering our knowledge useless.”

     

    “This doesn’t concern you, Grayson,” Damian dismisses. Tim stomps over, raises his hand, and Dick prepares to break up a fight between the two.

     

    Instead, Tim simply grabs Damian by the shoulders, spinning him around and off the bed so his back is pressed against his front. His palm finds Damian’s mouth, and the younger begins squirming in the hold. “Dick, we’re caught in a time-loop,” Tim says, raising his voice over the muffled protests of the boy in his arms.

     

    What? “What?” Dick asks, trying to comprehend the statement.

     

    Dick doesn't know when his brothers got so close, considering how last week the two almost came to blows over a missing batarang, but it's seeming a little... obsessive.

Why, the World's (Second) Greatest Detective, of course! Tim Drake-Wayne may have signed up for this mission on a whim and so that he wouldn't let the JLA down, but that won't stop him from having a good time while he's at it. After all, it's not every day that you get to pretend to be a wizard.

    Summary

    Tim is hunched over his computer, bouncing between a report for B (Batman, not Bruce) and a spreadsheet for B (Bruce, not Batman) when Jason stumbles into the cave. If it weren’t for the fact that Jason had been in a somewhat good mood lately, Tim probably would have been a little more concerned about this fact. Still, it’s weird when, instead of ignoring Tim’s existence like he usually does, Jason walks over to him directly and says, “I'm in a time loop and I don't know why. Fix it."

    Summary

    "Father was hit by a magic user on patrol."

    "Me," Little Bruce clarifies, stumbling to try and place the jug of orange juice on the island without spilling it all over himself, "I'm father."

    It's worse than Duke could have ever assumed, but he kind of can't stop smiling, "His memories have regressed too?"

    Damian sighs, "Yes. He's currently eight."

    "Eight and a half," Bruce corrects petulantly, frowning at Damian, which is hilarious because Damian glares back with the exact same expression.

    (Bruce is hit with a de-age spell, now its up to his three youngest kids to pick up the pieces.)

    11 Nov 2024

    Tags
    Summary

    “You're American?” The young man turns to him. Despite the faint ringing in his ears, Bruce hears the man's tone of slight displeasure, and suspicion, at the fact.

    Wiping his cheek with the back of his hand and grimacing at the sting and blood that comes away, Bruce sighs, “And you're English. What an awful pair we make.”

    It was the right amount of wit and humorous self deprecation, since the stranger grins in response, “Pleasure to meet you. I wish it was under better circumstances.”

    Military, Bruce assumes, shaking the hand firmly, “Thomas Malone.” he introduces himself with a polite nod.

    “Alfred Pennyworth,” the young man replies, eyes narrowing when Bruce startles and squeezes his hand a little too tight. Holy shit.

    (Bruce gets sent fifty years into the past and meets a familiar stranger.)

    "Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.


    Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead.
