    Summary

    “For the record, I totally didn’t send this,” Jason declares, resting his fists judgmentally on his hips and wrinkling the bridge of his nose as he takes in the envelope’s exterior details. “I wouldn’t embarrass myself by printing the address for Wayne Manor in Comic Sans. And I definitely wouldn’t use whatever the fresh hell that return address is printed in.”

    Taking the bagged envelope in hand again, Bruce moves to the Batcomputer and pulls up the folder of fonts on the system. He glances between the envelope and the sample screen for the font he’d already suspected would be a match.

    But clocking the font name gives him a great deal of pause. “Jokerman,” he finally declares in a growl through clenched teeth.

    Tim, as it turns out, may not be Jack Drake’s son, but Bruce Wayne’s already got kids he picked out personally. That’s okay though, because Tim’s got a plan for how to deal with this revelation—it’s not like he needs acknowledgement from a second father that doesn’t want him, anyway.

    Summary

    Peter hadn’t been walking for long when he realised that he no longer had someone tailing him. He was grateful for this.

    As much as he appreciated the concern expressed by this unknown vigilante (puddle guy), Peter needed somewhere he could collect his thoughts.

    Thoughts…
    Thoughts…

    This isn’t working.

    Where could he go, in a city that he doesn’t know, to find information that he doesn’t know exists?

    /OR Peter wakes up in Gotham to find a few new faces looking his way. Should he run? Or should he accept his fate?
    /OR the usual Peter Parker in Gotham au, with a few twists of my own... - quick note: this work is a multichapter in progress and does not feature any romantic relationships between characters. Peter/MJ is involved, however only through references. Cameos have not been tagged. TWs at the beginning of each chapter - stay safe <3

    Summary

    Remus knew, then, that those features would be difficult, impossible even, to ever forget. To memorise them, burn them into his mind, was not a challenge- rather, it was the natural, organic course of action, an innate response, involuntary and spellbinding. He doubted that anyone who’d encountered Sirius Black in person, ever ceased to remember his face.

    ---

    When Remus is commissioned to paint a portrait of the noble Black family’s rebellious heir, he finds that his work may be cut out for him… in more ways than one.

    Summary

    “Well, Remus, have you ever done this before?”
    Remus shook his head and lit up by a lone streetlight, Sirius noticed the way his cheeks and the tips of his ears seemed to darken slightly.
    “That’s what I thought.” Sirius crushed the cigarette under the heel of his boot. Then, he stepped up to hook his elbow with Remus’s and started walking them back towards the hotel.
    “Besides,” he added, meeting Remus’s gaze with a twinkle in his eyes. “With a smile like that, how could I ever say no?”
