    Summary

    When Batman returned, when Damian’s family returned, Damian Al Ghul Wayne wasn’t sure how to act. After all, ten years had passed since their last meeting.

    Funny, wasn’t it? To miss a person for longer than you had ever known them.

     

    Or: Damian’s family inexplicably goes missing on his 11th birthday. Ten years later, they return, and Damian must figure out how to adjust to having them back in his life after surviving for so long without them.

    Summary

    Nausea rises in his gut. It feels like someone dumped ice water down his back. “What’d you say your name was?”

    “This… This isn’t an act?” The strange man’s words are tight, jaw tense. Something about his voice is so hopelessly, irreparably broken.

    But he can’t take it anymore. Can’t entertain this madness for another second. “What happened to me?” he begs. “Why am I here?”

    ---

    A Ric Grayson fix-it, because I’m still not over it.

    Summary

    Love was not a matter of agreement, or even shared values. That is how it is with family: you can clash, and argue and fight, but no one else can. No one else has the right to.

    But even after a thousand disagreements and even more arguments, Bruce remained the man who raised them. The man who grew into the role of a father for every kid that had lived under this roof.

    So if this alternative Bruce had no Robins, one could at least hope there was someone else waiting for him. Someone who thought of him beyond just Batman. It was only fair, for no Bruce should ever be alone. Even if Bruce himself most often did not realize so.

    Bats are social creatures, after all.

    Or

    Absolute Batman lands in the Mainline universe and learns that maybe his mission doesn't need to be a lonely one.

    Summary

    My Grian was sorry too, reads the note pinched between Grian's fingers. His skin feels cold under Grumbot's acid-green glow. What exactly does that say, he wonders, about the other timeline? What did Grumbot do?

    What did he do?

    Or: in another universe, Mumbo wins the mayoral race, Scar founds the world's least underground resistance, Grian vanishes mysteriously, and in search of her missing friend, PearlescentMoon logs into a season 7 that never ended.

    Summary

    The Watchers weren’t quite satisfied with how Secret Life played out, so they’ve decided to mix things up a bit. The players they had chosen had gotten far too comfortable with the games, so they needed to do something to change that. All the while plotting to get back one of their own.

    Meanwhile Grian discovers just how little control he has over the games, how easily players can be turned against one another, and how persistent the past is to repeat itself. Not to mention just how much his own worldview differs from the truth.
