Gotham's Claimed by The_duke_is_back
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Justice League - All Media Types
24 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
It's a well-known fact among cities like Metropolis, Central, and Star, if Gotham claims you there's no escaping it.
Those who have lived in the cursed city don't often leave, most choosing to spend their entire lives there. The few that do try always find themselves returning, telling friends and loved ones that they MISSED the crime filled nightmare metropolis. Sometimes they're saved, sent by concerned friends and family to therapy or clinical institutions to try and save them from the strange darkness that lures them back.
But either way, they're never the same.
And those are only the regular, everyday citizens.
So what happens
when Gotham
picks favorites?

Batman CAN'T be Non-Meta... He Isn't Is He? by NotSoHarmlessBatfam
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU
24 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Batman keeps getting "severe" injuries on missions but shrugs them off. After being insistent on being non-meta the JL start to worry.
But that's just how Bruce is, he may be a cryptid, and sure injuries don't hurt him and he may also be immortal... but that doesn't mean he can't fake being non-meta, if they research too much into his kind then his children will be uncovered!
But after centuries of being a cryptid he may or may not have forgotten how "average" non-meta's react and behave... at first they shrugged it off as Batman being... well Batman. But even Batman can't not react to some of these injuries... can he?

Summary
Dick Grayson is eight years old when his parents die in a "tragic accident." He is sent to live with his mysterious godfather, in a sprawling mansion in the Pine Barrens of New Jersey outside of Gotham.
He's pretty sure the house is haunted.
___
Some of the inspirations behind this include Edgar Allen Poe, the entire Gothic Horror genre, and The Addams Family. This fic will focus more on the found family aspect of Batman, but there will still be Batman stuff happening (leaning heavily into the supernatural elements tag.) Expect mostly Dick's POV (chapters from another character's POV will have it mentioned before the chapter.) Tags will be updated as needed.Series
