    Summary

    Harry Potter was very lonely. Yes, he had friends, a good job, and just finished his mastery in defense, but it was usually just him and his son all alone at night when everyone else had families and lives apart from them. When he learned by chance that he may actually have some living family, it should have been an easy decision to reach out to them. Unfortunately, nothing comes easily to Harry. Harry's biological father just had to be the most difficult person in the world to get a meeting to see, and the absolutely most suspicious when confronted with a paternity claim.

    Tony Stark was very lonely. He and Pepper had recently broken up. His friends had betrayed him, and he was now forced to live with the very same people who had hurt him. He didn't think he could take one more blow and stay standing under it. Tony didn't have family; he didn't know what to do with family; too bad Tony's family wasn't sure what to do with him either, but they were going to give it a hell of a try anyway.

    Summary

    Jones chose that moment to stride into the office, his gaze shifting between Sara and Jazz with an amused smirk. "Damn Caffrey, where do you keep finding all these lovely ladies?"

    It took his brain a moment to boot up before he understood. "Oh, no, it’s not what you're thinking." He quickly gestured towards Jazz. "That’s my sister, Jasmine."

    Sara exhaled a relieved sigh and relaxed in his hold. "You're usually much better at reading people, Caffrey."

    "Well, I’m usually not caught up in a misunderstanding about flirting with my sister," he retorted, before shooting his sister an accusing glance. "And you, you could’ve said something."

    Jazz held up her hands in innocence. “No, this was much funnier. I finally understand why Sam kept calling you and Danny, Clueless #1.”

    Summary

    Danny Fenton is not okay. TM.
    Honestly? Just overall bad vibes.
    But he's doing his best. Making it work. And trying not to become fully dead in the process.

    The Justice League is very concerned. But it's actually their fault they got involved so take that one, Batman.
    John Constantine told them not to do the thing. They did it anyway.

     

    Or, Danny gets summoned by the League, and he actually kind of adopts them in the process. Because these big city heroes don't know anything about ghosts and who is he if he doesn't help them out? Besides, the Watchtower is in space. Danny's always wanted to go to space...

     

    (I'm not really following any specific JL timeline, so like. Be prepared for 98% of everything to be *made up* and possibly *not real*.)

    Summary

    “If you ever find yourself in danger, go to Bruce Wayne. He will help you.”

    His mother had loved him, in her own way. If she hadn’t, she wouldn’t have helped him escape. If she hadn’t, she would have dragged him back to the League of Assassins, to Grandfather. If she hadn’t, he’d be dead.

    She loved him, but she loved the League more.

    Jack and Maddie Fenton loved him too, they did, but they loved their work more.

    They loved their work more.

    --

    After his parents react poorly to his reveal, Danny escapes to the only person he thinks can help him - Bruce Wayne. He doesn't know what to expect when he gets there, but it has to be better than where he is, surely? He certainly doesn't expect to be reunited with his long lost twin brother Damian. It's funny how things work out that way.

    Danny is 16 years old, not Phantom Planet compliant

    "I'm trying to figure out if you're going to eat me or not." Jason said.

    The wolf snorted, staring at Jason as if he was a dumbass.

    "Don't give me that look." He grumbled.

    -

    Jason finds a werewolf while out on patrol and befriends it.

    On an unrelated note, Tim never patrols during full moons.

    Summary

    “Hello dickhead,” hisses Nagini. "I am here to report your location and abysmally boring daily life back to Tom so he can find a way to kill you faster and more painfully. At least then he’ll give me more rabbits, because hunting is a pain in the arse and those nimble little pieces of shit are bloody tiring to catch.”

    Harry stops weeding Aunt Petunia’s lawn in favour of staring at the giant python in the garden hedge next to him.

     

    It’s the holidays after the Triwizard Tournament, Nagini hates this whole spy business, and Harry makes an unexpected friend.

    “‘Sup.”

    Peter stared at the figure sitting on his couch, feet kicked up on the coffee table, two fingers raised in greeting. He was slouched casually, dressed in lacrosse gear, with a bullet hole in the middle of his forehead.

    “… Hello Stiles."

    Summary

    When Harry Potter, freshly four-hundred (or so) years old, came to this world, he had not been expecting to fall deeply in love with the dashing gentleman that routinely visited the café from where he drank his tea.

    Of course, that was not to imply that Harry would do less than his utmost to woo the object of his sincerest affections.

    -

    The Bats were in agreement: whoever this "Harry Potter" was, they didn't like him. At all. Who'd this twenty-something year old think he was?! Like hell they'd let their Alfred get stolen away from them by some no-good, seducing little punk.

    Summary

    Harry would say it was a normal Tuesday. But it wasn't. Because expecting to die only to be thrown into a different universe where assassins work with snarky teenagers to take down other assassins, it was rarer to be able to do magic than it was to have super strength, and people were trying to sell him to rich people because he 'smelled good'... was surprisingly (and uncomfortably) new.
    On the bright side, he probably wouldn't have to get involved with that 'Batman' fellow if he stayed in Wayne Manor!

    Summary

    If anyone's due an identity crisis, it's Harry Potter...especially if he's not really a Potter...and possibly not able to die...yeah, it's been a rough few years...maybe life. Running from his problems and grief sounds like a great idea, becoming a hunter might be fun, too bad it just so happens to be the apocalypse. George is certain this is all just Harry's luck and along for the insane ride and the wonderful distraction. Dean and Sam Winchester are exceptionally confused about why two random Brits are following them around now, and why hasn't anyone seen a single omen for the Fourth Horseman of the apocalypse, Death?

    Summary

    It started with Casper High failing to fail, resulting in winning the Thomas & Martha Wayne contest despite their best efforts not to, causing them to spend the summer as interns in Gotham.

    According to Danny, the miserable expirence ended after he spent the whole summer getting kidnapped because the average Gothomite was blind and couldn't tell apart a sixteen from a thirteen year old which went to it's logical extreme of him putting the Joker on life support after the clown stabbed Damian Wayne and his whole class nearly getting adopted by the Red Hood after they somehow took out the Russian mafia.

    According to the birth certificate Bruce found, this was still very much the beginning and why oh why did he always get surprise relationships?! And no he was not panicking, shut up dear children.

    The only one not freaking out is Damian who is eager to finally have a blood family member(s?) he doesn't have to worry about trying to kill him or usurp his place as the blood son.

    Summary

    Peter wasn’t going to let May pay the rent all on her own. Not when there was two of them, not when being Spider-Man made everything that much harder.

    And if that meant washing scratched up dishes and scrubbing old blood from the tile grout at Sister Margaret’s School for Wayward Girls, then so be it.

    But then one night, his skin turned blue.

    (If only his problems didn’t multiply from there.)

    Summary

    "Well, looks like we're all Sith Lords, now. I hope you've all been practicing your most menacing laughter for our first run in with the Jedi Council."

    Ben could only sigh and raise a distasteful eyebrow at the cross shaped, red lightsaber he was given. Down the line other students were also handling their new weapons and robes with a raised eyebrow here and quizzical expression there.

    "Really, uncle?"

    "Really. I don't want to compete with the local Jedi population."

    Why did Jedi politics and time travel have to be so difficult?
