Summary
Gotham was supposed to be temporary. Just another house, another set of rules, another chance to act like nothing was wrong. But this time, the act didn’t hold. Every stare, every locked door, every quiet night made him realize how far he’d fallen from who he used to be. And for the first time, Peter wondered if there was still a way back.
Or
Peter has issues and he has to decide if he wants to accept help or let himself drown in everything.

Summary
That glow is gone, now. Gone from Dick’s skin, gone from inside him. It used to shine out of him, out of all the cracks the world put in him. But now Bruce looks down at him, and he is as dark and cold as a snuffed star. That’s what gets to him the most—not how cold the morgue is under its colorless fluorescent lighting, or the cloying smell of formaldehyde that clogs his throat. It’s how still Dick is, on the cold, sterile surface of the examiner’s table. It’s unnatural. The boy never learned how to sit still.
---
On a dewy Sunday morning in April, Dick Grayson, trust fund baby and local celebrity, is found dead at the tender age of 25. His abrupt passing sends his hometown, the sleepy beach town of Gotham, into a tizzy--and his former guardian, old money stalwart Bruce Wayne, reeling. But as Bruce struggles to come to terms with his ward's death, it rapidly becomes clearer and clearer to him that there's something off with this tragedy--no, this "town"--no, this entire reality...

Summary
When he finally gets the door open, there's a man standing in the middle of his room. Red Hood. He looks incongruous in Peter’s space, with his sturdy combat boots brushing against a dirty t-shirt that got left on the floor last night.
“Hey, that was pretty fast,” he says brightly. “I’d love to see how fast you can go when you aren’t taking detours to lose a tail first.”
OR
That one where Peter ends up in Gotham after the events of NWH and is determined to stay on his own so that nobody can get hurt, but the Bats refuse to get the memo.

Summary
Peter sits down at his desk—well, it’s supposed to be a desk. If you wanted to be super technical about it, it’s just a pile of textbooks covered by a tablecloth he’d scavenged from Aunt May’s the second time he moved out. But there aren’t any concrete rules about what does and doesn’t count as a desk. It’s an abstract thing, really.
He opens the notebook in front of him, ripping out the first few pages. He doesn’t need them, and he isn’t going to buy a whole new notebook for this. That’s the entire point.
On a clean page, Peter starts writing.‘The Leech Diet™ - A Scientific Approach to Being Broke’

Or the one where Peter becomes one of those shameless, street cats that get six dinners because everyone thinks he’s starving.Bookmarked by Samtheduck

“What do you suggest, J’onn?” Diana asks. Eyes hard and determined, every bit the warrior sculpted from clay. But voice soft and gentle.
“An investigation.”
Dick’s hands start to tremble under the table.
