Summary
Peter died for the universe, and it's entirely his fault that Wanda died too, so why did they both wake up in a tube of discount Nickelodeon slime? And how is Pietro here?
Also, wtf is Gotham?
---
“But you’re like, six?” Pietro questioned before he was manhandled by Wanda as she checked for injuries, “Also what was the comment about being on the run?”
“I am nine. Ish. I think. And mentally I’m fifteen.”
“Still not old enough for basically having several college degrees,” Pietro argued as his head was pulled down so Wanda could check his scalp, “and can we get back to the on the run thing? I think we’re avoiding something important here.”
“So, after you got yourself shot…” Wanda started.
“Heroically,” Pietro interrupted, dodging another smack.

Summary
That’s when Barbara had hunted down the info. What she could.
Not human trafficking. Something worse. A serial killer. An organization centered around serial killers. They were hunting foster kids fresh out of the system. A sensitive topic for any one of the ex-Robins. Orphans always were.
Barbara still only had a blurry outline of the mission when things went downhill. Hood, Red, and Spoiler were on their own private coms when everything went down. It was one Jason jealously guarded, and Barbara hadn’t been able to hack without his notice. Dick and Jason had gotten Robin out, taking some hits in the process. Damian had watched from a secure location nearby, even managing, despite Barbara and Batman’s clear commands, to slip a tracker into the van they loaded the others into.
Batman had arrived too late for the others. He tried to follow them, but something kept disrupting the feed. Then the kidnappers abandoned the vehicle, and they were gone.
Jason. Dick. Tim. Steph. Gone.
>><<
Dick, Tim, Steph, and Jason get kidnapped by a group of serial killers with a taste for the dramatic. A labyrinth of traps, A battle Royal, and lethal doses of modified fear toxin.

Summary
Everyone and their mother knew Crime Alley sat on a razor's edge- only one slight imbalance away from toppling over, just the barest of embers away from fully igniting. The Bats felt for the residents there- worried for them and helped where they could- but full involvement was too dangerous. (Red Hood didn't give three shits about danger. Crime Alley was his home and if he had to burn it to the ground to make it better he would- and Bats be damned: he did)
Every member of the Justice League knew that The Founders Community was on the verge of another civil war- coexisting never seemed to be in their vocabulary. The situation was monitored of course, but no one wanted to be the one to pull the trigger on one of the largest meta communities in the nation. Fanning the fire would only invite death. (Hadriyan 'Rin' Black had been friends with death since she was an infant, she didn't give three shits about inviting the bastard over for tea. Death was already at home in the Founding, and if she had to lead a civil war to get the rest of the world to see it she would. In doing so, she saved hundreds- if not thousands- of lives)
Now: if only Hermione could get the two red-clad idiots to realize they're in love.

“Red Hood’s the name.”
Peter mulled the name over, turning it in his mind.
“Like legally…?”
The man’s pride deflated quickly. “No! Not legally!”

Summary
“You got a pen?”
Tim blinked owlishly before scrambling to grab a pen from his book bag, as if terrified Jason would change his mind in the 6 seconds he took to search. He held it out to Jason who snatched it right out of his hands.
“If we do this, we’re doing it right. You got that, Richie?" Jason snarled. "When I sign this you’re my kid!”
“I don’t do things in half measures. I’m gonna be there for every PTA meeting, every club invite, every fucking carpool you understand? I don’t need some white bread, pearl clutching bitch telling me I’m a shitty Guardian just ‘cause I didn’t ask for this.”
---
The only thing worse than crawling out of your own grave to find your father had replaced you with the first black haired, blue eyed preteen he could find, is said replacement begging you to sign emergency foster papers... except maybe you signing said papers and having to learn how to be a parent on the fly... Fuck it, he couldn't do any worse than Bruce Wayne.

Summary
Number 4 knew a lot of things.
She knew how to stay still while her creator ran his tests. She knew how to keep her mouth shut. She knew how to kill.
She knew she'd be better off back in a lab across the world than with the clown with a crazed smile.
----
Bruce Wayne knew a lot of things.
He knew how to keep his personal life and his night life separated. He knew not to involve himself in the kids' pillow fights. He knew everything about the villains in Gotham.
And worst of all: he knew that the Joker wasn't the type to adopt mysterious pink-haired girls out of the kindness of his heart.

Summary
Everyone in the Batfamily knew that Tim Drake solved cold cases as a hobby. So when an alert popped up for a seemingly dead-end case, he didnt hesitate to call his brother for help. A missing 15 year old, never found, presumed dead. The idea of it chilled anyone to the bone, but especially an ex-Robin.
Ever since his core fractured, Danny just wanted to control his new compulsions and avoid melting into ecto like his clone (sister), but the GIW and two random vigilantes wouldnt leave him alone!
OR:
What if Danny experienced Pit Maddness the same way Jason did, and a few bats and birds try to help him? -

Summary
So this is me taking the worlds of Batman and Arcane and frankensteining them together. This is not a crossover, no one is crossing from their world into another, it is the two worlds as one with Batman characters taking the place of Arcane characters with story changes to match. For example, Dick is Vi, Jason is Jinx, Talia is Silco, Bruce is Vander, Superman is Jace, Gotham is Zaun, Metropolis is Piltover, the Lazarus pits are shimmer, Barbara is Caitlyn, etc. Damian, Tim, Joker, and Alfred will not be Arcane character substitutes, they're just new characters.

Summary
Jason, Roy, and Lian follow Damian to Gotham, and set up a household in Crime Alley. Jason's determined to make the city safer for his kids, Roy's trying to figure out life as a new parent, and the Bats are just trying to figure out where Jason is and why he won't come home.
a.k.a. the JayRoy coparenting sequel.
Gotham had welcomed him back with a shriek of sirens and the rumble of machinery. Dying and his dip in the Pit had stolen many memories, and Jason hadn’t realized until now that one of them must have been how it felt to be in Gotham. He had forgotten how alive the city was, the hum of life and grief beneath his boots. She was a stubborn, bloody bitch of a matriarch, and he would almost swear he heard her as they crossed the city limits.
Welcome home, my little bird. You’ve been gone too long.Series

Summary
“You were—you are—” Tim fumbled, glancing helplessly at Bruce, who still hadn’t moved, before rushing on. “You’re kind of… incredible.”
Damian’s brain locked up completely.
Bruce made a low noise — something like a choked cough — but didn’t otherwise comment.
The back of Damian’s neck burned. He looked down sharply at his plate.
“I’m not,” he muttered.
