Summary
It's a long road back home -- it's even longer for those who love you.
***
“It is different, the last few times. Harder.” Alfred nods his head towards Stephanie’s door. “We have lost children before, Master Damian, but never like how we lost her.”
Then Alfred falls silent. There is nothing Damian can think of to do but watch him.
Alfred does not talk like this, not to Damian. Not about children, about loss. This is how Damian is used to Alfred talking to Richard or Father. It is how Damian is used to Alfred talking to an adult.
And Damian feels afraid.

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.

I Wear The Black by p1tufina

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.

For Want of a Savior by VermilionFlame

21 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
This universe is completely different from his own; yet, in many respects, it's the same in the ways that matter. The Red Hood finds a broken bird in an abandoned wing of Arkham Asylum and rescues him. He doesn't expect for the bird to grow attached; or for him to do the same.
Basically, post-UtRH Jason gets punted into the Arkham-verse and, upon seeing Arkham Jason, goes "Is anyone gonna save him or am I gonna have to do it myself?" while completely disregarding the fact that he's a complete disaster himself.

There was a new vigilante in his city: a man who smiled too much and talked too loud and knew his way around a fight a little too well. Bruce wasn't bothered by his antics. Except the man also seemed to know a little too much about him.
Who was this Nightwing, anyway?

Summary
As the headless body of Irontomb shatters, Khaslana falls with it. Captured in a small window of time, somewhere in between the pages of Irontomb’s defeat and the ending, he drifts aimlessly in the space between. His porcelain wings fracture and crumble; the searing beneath his skin subsides. The Destruction chips off of him in tiny, glittering pieces like stars, crackling into nothingness, leaving Phainon raw and aching, eyes shut tight. 33 million cycles turned to dust.
Time stutters and starts, the past is muddled with the present, and Cyrene floats with him, parting through the layers as she reaches out to touch his shoulder.
“Sleeping now that the job is done?” she asks fondly, quietly. “You deserve it, of course, but there will be time for that later. I’d like to speak to you first.”
or: Cyrene, the Demiurge, officially meets Phainon

Summary
The first time he talks to Eveline, really actually talks, is right after he 'dies' from his 'injuries' from the battle with Miranda. Yes, the quotes are necessary, because if he doesn't put them there, he does dangerous things like thinking he's alive and has a body that can get up and go find his daughter and give her a big, huge, actual hug because he's sad, goddammit, that he can't do that because he's not alive.
***
Or, Ethan Winters has a long time of being 'dead.' Highlights include: learning how to talk to Rose, learning how to talk to Eveline, and learning how to continue pissing off whatever God really wants him dead but can't be bothered to actually do the job right.

Grace didn't have much of anything these days.

Or - Grace's mental health deteriorates on the journey to Erid.
