    Summary

    “I can't believe you got into a bar fight at two in the morning. And now you're all in prison. The night before your wedding. What the fuck kind of a family am I marrying into?” Selina said.
    Bruce Wayne goes to a series of bachelor parties, each one worse than the last. Set in the same timeline as We, So Much Older, but can be read as a standalone fic as well.

    Summary

    Alfred Pennyworth would never admit it, but he missed his previous job with MI6.

    He missed it very much, in fact.

    Back then, if he walked down a hallway, he didn’t have to worry that someone with the eerie stillness of a mannequin would be waiting just around the corner, staring at him with wide, unblinking blue eyes that looked... disturbingly like a porcelain doll’s.
    --
    Or, Bruce Wayne was never a normal child and Alfred contemplates if he should start sleeping with a cross under his pillow.

    Summary

    “The Red Hood has been good for Gotham,” Robin continued. “Crime in Park Row decreased by sixty one percent almost as soon as you showed up, and that’s even taking into account all the crime you commit. Drug overdoses have decreased by twenty two percent in adults and seventy nine percent in minors. Homeless minors are ninety two percent less likely to—”

    “Kid,” Jason interrupted. “Enough statistics. What the hell is this about?”

    Robin slowly lowered the tablet with his powerpoint presentation and looked up at Red Hood.

    “You care about Gotham,” Robin summarised. “Gotham needs Batman. Batman is missing and so is Nightwing. We need you to fill in for Batman.”

    “You want me to cover Batman’s patrols?” Jason clarified.

    “No,” Robin said. “I want you to be Batman.”

    Jason bluescreened.

     

    (Or: Batman and Nightwing mysteriously disappear before Red Hood has even started antagonising them, Robin is desperate, Gotham needs Batman, and Red Hood is Batman-Shaped.)

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne is not the founder type. He wouldn’t voluntarily join a book club, much less join a league of super-powered vigilantes whom he does not know personally. Hence, why he refuses to entertain this “Justice League.”

     

    It starts with a friendly visit.

    Summary

    “I want it on record that I think this is a terrible idea and I’m only doing this to mitigate the damage."
    AKA
    Red Robin decides it's a great idea to livestream patrol while Batman's off-world. It goes about as well as you'd expect.
