a ripple in the wound and wake - countrycoleslaw - Batman (Comics) [Archive of Our Own]
Long, engrossing read that broke my heart several times before finally putting it all back together. Highly recommended!
Batman dies saving Red Hood.Jason Todd doesn't agree with this outcome and wishes for more time.He wakes up, thirteen and earnest, in his childhood bedroom in Wayne Manor. Bruce is knocking at his door in an attempt to rouse him. Jason remembers this day. They're going to a Gotham Knights game later in the afternoon. Bruce's blood is still warm and criminal on his hands.Or, the one where being Robin never gave Jason magic—he was a little magic all along. Jason decides to do things a little differently the second time around. This time, he’s determined to save Bruce—soul and all.

hee! This is fun!
Jason hadn't expected much when he published his book. At most a few people might buy it and that would be it.What he hadn't expected was people would go crazy for his book, and it would end up becoming a best seller.What he also hadn't expected was that people around him would read the book and recommend it to him.Who would Jason be, if he doesn't take this God given opportunity to mess with his family?

Poor Damian! It's not his fault everybody wants Dick. Hee!
Damian pulls out his phone and dials Richard’s number- his chauffeur has been unfortunately painstakingly instructed to answer no calls whatsoever from Damian, and Alfred has begun to pretend that phones do not exist during school hours. Unsurprisingly, as it is eight in the morning, it goes to voicemail. Damian waits impatiently for the beep. “Richard,” he says, in tones of the deeply suffering, “this place is a hostile environment. I must be collected post-haste, as after this latest indignity I am dropping out. Come at once, or I may die here.” The dynamic duo attend a parent-teacher conference. No one has a good day.

oh heart...
“You can’t participate in the Olympics, Dick.”Dick blinked. “Oh…” He tried to sound casual. “Uh, yeah, no, that wasn’t even– It was a joke.” He shrugged. “The Olympics are lame.”Bruce watched him for a long moment. “You know why, right?”Dick forced himself to meet his eyes. “Robin, for obvious reasons.”***or, Dick goes to the Olympics as an act of teenage rebellion.

I enjoyed this a lot!
Percy Jackson survives Mount St. Helens—only to wake up in Gotham. Injured, exhausted, and completely out of his element, he has one goal: get home. Between criminal empires, lurking monsters, and one very persistent Bat, that’s easier said than done.OR: Olympus meets Gotham. Percy just wants to leave, but the city—and its vigilantes—aren’t so keen on letting him go.

his AU is a lot of fun, with excellent Steph & Tim interaction.
Currently a series of semi-connected scenes within a world where Bruce encountered Stephanie as Spoiler before Tim decided that if no one else was going to be Robin, then he had to. Tim and Steph found each other anyway.

This is a lot of fun!
Percy was at least happy that this wasn't a prophecy. Stealing back some demigod weapons from a mortal? Sure, Iron Man was a superhero and a genius, but after dealing with Gaea, that was nothing. They just had to steer clear of anyone who might recognize them, and they were positive that they could pull it off easier than most of their quests. And potentially land Leo a job, while they're at it. But Percy should have known better. Nothing is ever that simple for a demigod.

Oh my <em>heart</em>...
Batman's tell-all memoir is about to publish. Normally, Bruce wouldn't care about the 100th Batman parody to hit the shelves. But when he gets his hands on an early sample, he finds this memoir contains a troubling amount of truth about him and his family.Bruce can't let this stand. As he knows better than most, the only way to squash a scandal is to create an even bigger scandal. Dominate the news circuit. Take up all the publisher's publicity resources. Sure, he has never written a book before, but how hard can it really be?Well, as Clark tells him, those are some famous last words, Bruce.

Interesting casefic with real emotional stakes, plus the Birds of Prey!
There’s something wrong with Dick.Tim thought everything was getting back to normal. Bruce was alive and back in their timeline, the Birds of Prey were once again operating out of Gotham, Dick had the city well under control as Batman and even Damian had been less obnoxious than usual.And then during a firefight at a warehouse by the docks, Tim was almost hit by a flying boomerang. And Dick never noticed.When something is wrong with your big brother, who else do you turn to but your big sisters?

I really enjoyed this team-up between feral street kid Jason and hiding-he's-Robin Tim!
Jason is just trying to survive on the streets of Gotham--made slightly more difficult by the fact that some gang has apparently decided to make him their most wanted person. Until he befriends a kid-who-definitely-isn't-Robin, who promises to help him reunite with his dad. And, well, Jason's not in the habit of accepting favors. But maybe it would be worth it, just this once.Featuring ghosts or zombies or hallucinations, misunderstandings (both unintentional and entirely intentional), lots of identity shenanigans, and some discussion of dads.

Can't Raise Hell as a Saint - historical_allusions - Batman - All Media Types [Archive of Our Own]
Compelling time travel adventure for Jason.
When an adult Jason Todd is thrown into the past, he must balance raising his childhood self with reinventing his vigilante personae, all without revealing his knowledge of the future...A task made infinitely more difficult when he starts changing things in the past and attracts the attention of a young Batman and Robin.

Long, interesting crossover where Percy flees to Gotham and ends up involved with the Bats.
The war ends. Kronos falls.Percy is tired. He's tired of being the leader, the hero, the general, the prophesied. He's tired of fate. He's tired of the Gods.Good thing the Gods can't reach Gotham.

Oh <em>Tim</em>...
One week of feverish research. Two days of furious tracking. Thirty minutes of hopeless fighting.It is all coming to this, a deal Tim has no choice but to accept.“I’ll release your family in exchange for all their memories of you,” Klarion the Witch Boy says.“I’ll do it,” Tim says loudly before he can second-guess himself. His fingers tighten around his last birdarang, but he does not throw it. Instead, he stands stock still, forcing himself to keep breathing, keep standing, despite the bone-deep exhaustion weighing his body down.After all, Gotham needs Batman much more than it needs Robin.

This is super cute!
In which Jason Todd meets Tim Drake, who is inexplicably Dick Grayson's #1 Fan, and decides the only reasonable course of action is to plot to get the two of them to meet and see what happens. It definitely won't have a major impact on his life or anything.
