Summary
"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.- Language:

bitten lips, torn fingertips by Spooky_Vanilla for CrescentMom

Summary
"I’ll die without you," he wanted to say, "I want to spend every second with you. I want to hold your heart and feel it beat in my palms."
Somehow, it felt like Wally could hear it anyways. Dick watched as his eyes darkened, his hands flexed and then he was leaning down. Dick rose up onto his elbows and then they were kissing. A shock pressed to his lips and when Wally deepened the kiss, Dick couldn’t help but think he felt like fire, like the sun. He should destroy him, he should make Dick burn until he was nothing but dust, but he didn’t.
Not for the first time, Dick wondered what was wrong with them.
Or: Nightwing and Flamebird, forever in a cycle of reincarnation. Dick and Wally just so happen to take on their names.

Summary
Ten years ago the Justice League's covert Operations team was lost. The Light refused to let six teenagers continue to beat them and thus destroyed any chance that the children would grow to become formidable adversaries.
Half the team is dead, the other is past saving.
Or at least, that's what the league thought.- Words:

You, Me, and the Humanity in Between by JUBE514

Summary
Bruce doesn’t know what’s wrong with his child, but he’s pretty sure kids aren’t meant to work like this.
From the day he had looked up into the tops of the circus tent and saw a frightened mirror image of a boy who had just experienced the worst day of his life, Bruce had instantly gone into emergency mode.
The Gotham PD had wanted to pass the boy off into the care of the circus. The circus had mumbled underneath their breaths about superstitions, about not having a boy like that with them, about not being able to handle something like Dick. So GCPD, not knowing what to do, had started talking about one of the handful of overburdened boy homes that handles a majority of Gotham’s unlucky orphans.
All the while, the camera lights flash bright and loud, wanting to know everything.
Bruce couldn’t let that happen.
Not then, not ever again.
-🦇-
Bruce is trying his best to protect the city that he loves. He doesn't know how exactly his Robins came to be- they're not fully human, not even at all. All he knows is that he wants to keep them safe.

love is being stupid together by suzukiblu

29 Apr 2025
Summary
“You had my baby?” Superman asks, tilting in the air and still staring at Experiment Thirteen, as if he's somehow forgotten both how much kryptonite Lex owns and how much kryptonite he keeps specifically in this office. “While I was dead. You had my baby while I was dead.”
. . . alright then, Lex thinks again, both eyebrows raising this time.
“I really wouldn’t put it that way, personally,” he says. “Also, I don’t recall saying it was in any way yours.”

Frost covers my hands, scales cover my skin. by Cakeleigh

Summary
Tim’s still alive -through it all somehow he’s still here. Even if he barely talks to the family anymore, and he avoids the manor like the plague, and he goes MIA for weeks on end with little to no notice -he’s still plodding on.
But when a case comes up where someone gets torn apart with no murderer, murder weapon, or motive in sight -he begins to think that maybe he should’ve taken the time to talk things through with the others before it was too late.
At least Red Hood was also on the case, even if neither were the best when it came to teamwork. Or when it came to asking for help, for that matter.
———————————————————————
HEED THE TAGS!! It’s gruesome and dark in places.
This is a dragon fic with a lot of body horror! This au is in a world with no superpowers or magic, however, there is obviously a supernatural element. The bat family are the only heroes about, in this world.

August 1989
"Missouri? You're sending me to Missouri?" Hal repeats. He can't have heard right. She can't really mean it, can she?
"I bet you can't even find it on a map." Jack comments.
"I can too, Jackass-"
"Harold. You're going, and that's final. Have your bags packed for Saturday morning. And for the love of God, don't take that jacket with you." Jessica Jordan says, turning away from her second child and effectively ending the conversation.
--------------------
Hal is 17, and counting the days till his 18th birthday so he can join the Air Force. Jessica Jordan is desperate to get her son away from the Californian airfields, so she calls in an old favour and sends Hal to spend a few months in Central City.

The Complicated Logistics of Creating a Successful Superhero Duo by Anemones2Hydrangeas
Fandoms: Super Sons (Comics), Superman - All Media Types, Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)
29 May 2025
Tags
Summary
Damian Wayne and Jonathan Samuel Kent are approaching that young but important monument in their adolescent lives. The future dynamic duo is finally old enough to be part of a real superhero team like Young Justice, or the Titans, or maybe even the Justice League! Well... At least they thought they were since they planned to join one together, but the more they think about it, the less appealing it sounds. The two don’t want to be defined as the sons of someone super.
The only solution is to start their own superhero team! Fighting bad guys is no problem, but figuring out a public image, interpersonal issues, equipment maintenance, transportation, politics, financial control, and time management are an entirely different story. When did being a hero get so complicated?

Dick's little brother is dead, and he can't stop thinking about all the other people who have died because of the psychopaths that run rampant in Gotham. Can't stop thinking about how many more will die in the future.

Things I don't see in DC yet - Dick Grayson time travelling, deciding to join Talon just so he can fuck them up from the inside and then forcibly joins Bruce at 12. Bruce has no idea what to do with a murderous assassin kid who has more of his shit put together than he does. Also, not Dick vicariously adopting all of the Robins and Bruce faced with three smaller children sitting at his table every night looking at him accusingly.

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.

Summary
So, it didn’t start out like this.
Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-
So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.
It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:
“ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”
--
A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

Summary
In the aftermath, a thousand and one deaths flash before his eyes, and Ares feels them all. Every sword. Every spear. Every knife.
Over and over again, he breathes his last breath, sometimes at the hands of another soldier and sometimes at the hands of himself. He stares at his own face, caked in blood and viscera, and hates himself for loving it.
War is his vice of choice. It is his lover. His best friend. His worst enemy. He hates to love it, but no matter how he tries, he can’t seem to escape its clutches.
He’s not quite sure if he really wants to.- - -
It’s ironic, isn’t it? Ares hates all of Poseidon’s children with a vengeful fury, and yet, in this new world of Christianity and Capitalism, Perseus Fucking Jackson is the closest thing he has to a priest.

Peter Johnson and the Art of Name Calling by ForbiddenRoyal

Summary
It started off as a joke, really. Just a little bit of spiteful payback to lighten Percy’s mood. He never meant to be disrespectful - though it's easy to be seen as impertinent when calling a god “Mr. Derulo” with a straight face. Percy just wanted a little revenge, is that too much to ask?
OR
Percy Jackson is fed up with Mr. D calling him “Peter Johnson” or anything other than his real name, so he decides to call Mr. D anything but Dionysus.

Summary
“Even rock cannot forever weather the winds and waters of time,” Morax says. “And we have already lost Focalors.”
The implication is clear: their world cannot survive the loss of another god nor the destabilisation that would surely follow.
Anticipation fizzes in the tips of Ajax's fingers. Curls through his veins. Quickens his breath. Another god would demur. He is not so humble as that. “You wish to pass on your portfolio to an heir.”
After Focalors destroys the Hydro Archon's seat in Celestia, the young god Ajax finds himself adrift without a purpose. Luckily, his Tsaritsa knows a certain golden-eyed someone with a weakness for beautiful warriors—who so happens to also be searching for an heir.
