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.

Summary
Usually, this is where suspects ask why they’re being held, if they don’t immediately request a lawyer. Grayson doesn’t do either. "You don't seem surprised," Gideon says.
Grayson’s face pinches. “Unfortunately, I think I have an idea what this is about.”
—
While in Blüdhaven, Spencer Reid and Jason Gideon learn of four abduction cases that could resemble the pattern of a serial killer. When a common denominator is found in the girls’ gymnastics studio, their instructor, Richard Grayson, is brought in for questioning.

Summary
The TikTok account appeared on a rainy Thursday evening with a simple green icon and the bio “Keep up with the Bats”. It was one of hundreds of similar accounts, which usually did nothing more than show blurry pictures of vigilantes and tell dramatic stories in voice-over. There was nothing about it that stood out.
Except for one thing.
Oracle.

The Batkids bully Batman into letting them have a TikTok account. It goes about as well as you'd expect.Series

Gaggle of Bastards by Nation_Ustria for NyxAeternus23
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)
28 Sep 2025

Summary
Onscreen, the reporter does the typical introduction spiel, then turns to the party crasher. “You and your associates have been remarkably candid about who you are while you’ve crashed galas all over the tri-state area tonight, but would you introduce yourselves one more time, this time for the record?”
The party crasher grins, bright and mischievous, but there’s a glint in his eyes that makes some part of Bruce think predator. “Sure thing! I’m Jason Todd-Wayne, and me and the others are Bruce Wayne’s gaggle of bastard children.”
Bruce chokes.
~
Thanks to a magician landing a lucky shot, all memory of the Batkids gets erased from the world.
They decide to make it absolutely everyone’s problem.

Summary
Dick expects to spend his birthday alone, haunted by the mistakes that pushed everyone away. But one by one, friends and family show up to remind him just how much he’s loved.
Now, if only his boyfriend would come home in time to celebrate with him!
(This fic takes place after "In the Language of Camellias" but you don't have to read that to read this. Also, don’t worry, if you don’t like the ship, Grant doesn’t actually appear until chapter 6 so you can always read the rest. But, heads up: Grant does haunt the narrative throughout the whole thing because he's close with those closest to Dick in this AU!)

Summary
That was it.
The absolute, final, last damn time.
Dick was going to kill Jason Todd. Slowly. Painfully. With his bare hands if necessary.
As soon as he could catch him.
What starts as a furious rooftop chase through Blüdhaven turns catastrophic when three Justice League members decide to "help" Nightwing apprehend the "dangerous criminal" Red Hood.
One blast of golden energy.
One sickening crunch.
Jason hits the wall and doesn't get up.
And Dick Grayson—the smiling, charming, well-adjusted one—stops smiling.
(Featuring: pudding-related property damage, Jason's concussed Disney princess revelations, three Justice League members who made a terrible mistake, and the rage Dick Grayson has spent years learning to hide.)Series

Summary
“I’m here now, like you wanted. So talk.”
That gave Slade a pause.
It wasn’t stunned speechless, nor was it his brain catching up to what it heard. It felt more like a snapshot, a moment of stillness to make the rush after all the more disorienting.
Slade gestured with cuffed hands, palms facing upward. “It’s not about what I want,” he started, “it’s what you need. I know you have questions, and that I have the answers.” He laced his fingers together and placed his chin atop them. “But that’s… formulaic, too conventional. Why not make it interesting?”
---
There's unrest in the underground and Slade seems to be a part of the cause. He agrees to cooperate with the League on a condition: Only Nightwing can interrogate him.
For every question Nightwing asks, he has to answer a question from Slade as well. Confidential information was off the table, that was made clear. So what seems to be Slade's end goal here, if the deal just sounded too good to be true?

Family Is Like Fool's Gold (The More Fake, The Easier It Is To Find) by Sle3pyKing
Fandom Batman (Comics), DC Extended Universe, DCU, DCU (Comics), Teen Titans - All Media Types, Titans (TV 2018)
15 Nov 2025
Summary
Rachel Roth’s world has been shattered—her mom is dead, weird cult members keep trying to kidnap her, and an evil, hollow version of herself is haunting her reflection.
Jason Todd’s life is better than ever before—he’s a hero, he lives with THE Bruce Wayne, and he can basically do whatever the hell he wants. But for some reason, he still feels so…empty.
Dick Grayson has been left broken, and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t seem to glue himself back together.
Garfield Logan has become an outcast, isolated from society by a man who claims to be looking out for the small family they’d built over the years.
The last thing any of them were expecting to get out of this was a new family.
(And others whom I couldn’t figure out how to fit into this :p)

Summary
Dick Grayson was born to perform. From his upbringing to the circus to his successful management of a double life as Robin, he has always known how to stick the landing and smile. It is no different when it comes to hiding things from his family, for example: a building obsession with arresting Slade Wilson, who proves to be a much more formidable opponent than Dick perhaps thought.
OR: as Damian's back gradually gets worse, Dick scrambles to take Slade out of the picture. It goes about as well as can be expected.

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
Gotham’s Dynamic Duo is great and all… but two capes against a city full of psychos? That’s just bad math. Dick Grayson’s got a new mom in Catwoman, a knack for collecting strays, and a dream of building something more, something like a family. Enter: a kid from Crime Alley, a stalking neighbor from the mansion next door, an assassin made in a test tube, and a teenage speedster from Central City who can’t stop tripping over his own feet.
Wally West thought he signed up for lightning bolts and news headlines. Instead, he got a shadow-hugging Gotham boy as his best friend, a crash course in Bat-trauma, and a front-row seat to the chaos of found family. Fighting Ra’s al Ghul and the ghosts of vigilante past? Not exactly in the brochure. But running away isn’t an option, not when even heroes need saving sometimes.
Now, with the Young Justice team assembling and world-ending plans popping up like bad guys in a warehouse, it’s clear: Sometimes, it’s the youngest heroes: the messy ones, the underestimated ones, the ones still learning to trust each other, who make all the difference.
