Summary
In an alternate universe, when the Waynes are shot down outside that theatre, little Bruce Wayne dies along with them.
Years later, eight of those he had mentored in countless other universes - eight whom in this universe received no help and no guidance - are hit with a barrage of memories from a different time, from different versions of themselves. Most pressing about these memories is how they end: transdimensional entities destroyed their reality, and are coming for this one.Or: Talon Dick Grayson, Consciousness-on-the-internet Barbara Gordon, Red Hood But Worse Jason Todd, Joker Junior Tim Drake, Young Justice Member Stephanie Brown, League Bodyguard Cassandra Cain, Heir to the Demon's Head Damian Al Ghul, and Teen Titans Leader Duke Thomas all learn how to be family and save the world, in that order.

Summary
Timothy Drake, as of right now, is living three lives: that of the highschooler, that of the vigilante, and (slightly more pressing), that of the changeling, working to free Gunmar from the darklands, set off the Endless Night, and subsequently kick off the end of the world as we know it.
Here's the kicker, however - Tim doesn't actually want the world to end. No, he quite likes it as it is, with its energy drinks, and its older-brother-figures, and its photography, and its Steph. Ideally, things can continue on as they have: Tim feeds information to the Janus order, so they don’t hunt him for sport, and the Killahead bridge is never completed and Gunmar never escapes – everyone’s happy and Tim’s not exposed or dead. Yay!
Of course, things are never that easy.Or: Trolhunters in Gotham AU that nobody asked for, with Tim as a changeling and Trollhunters taking place in Gotham City rather than Arcadia Oaks. Because I can.

(NOTE: this is not the mcu - this is a weird amalgamation of what i remember from marvel comics set right after the blood hunt crossover event, featuring the characters i care most about (marc spector my beloved) from the comics i'm keeping track of. so, uh. yeah.)

Summary
“A deal. You pretend to be my boyfriend for a few weeks, show up at my house, escort me to social functions and such. Your overall person, manner and opinions should be enough to truly scandalise my parents. You will only need to be yourself, only less... charming.”
Charles gave him a bright grin. “You think I’m charming?”
Edwin ignored him. “And I will act all smitten with you. When they offer you the money to break up with me – and rest assured, throwing money at problems is their only way of handling anything – you will take it. I shall be horribly heartbroken to make them feel guilty and any subsequent romantic partner who is a bit more... mellow than you will be quite welcome.”
Charles stared at him, unsure of how he could’ve ever thought of Edwin Payne as innocent. “Damn... you are a conniving little bastard, aren’t you?”-
Charles Rowland's first impression of Edwin Payne can be summerized as privileged, rich and aloof – also incredibly pretty, but that’s besides the point. However, when Edwin presents him with a scheme to piss off his conservative parents and get some money out of them in the process, Charles can’t resist the siren call of causing mayham for some Tories.

Peter Pettigrew and the Ghost of Christmas James by gonzoclock

Summary
Peter loves his friends. Which is why he had to kill them. And now, he's doing- well. Alright. Things didn't turn out exactly as he'd anticipated, but he's making it work. Living his life. As a rat. Mostly trying not to think about things.
Fine. Things could be better.
But he hadn't thought they'd get worse- which is exactly what happens when, three years after James died, he's come back. And for some godforsaken reason, he's decided to make that Peter's problem. (Okay, okay- Peter gets it. He did kill him.) Peter is sure that James is going to turn him in, ruin his life the same as Peter had ruined the Marauders.
But this is James. And he doesn't do any of that.
What was Peter expecting, really?
(Features: A lot of fighting, a lot of forgiveness, and a splash of necromancy. Alright, you got me- rather a lot of necromancy. But come on- we can't just have the ghost of Christmas James show up. Haven't you seen 'A Muppet's Christmas Carol'? There needs to be at least two more ghosts.)

Summary
Maybe in another universe, things went differently. Maybe in another universe, they didn't get so lucky. But here and now, they're safe. Regulus Black showed up just in time, with the key to winning the war, and put the power back in the Order's hands. If only things had a tidy ending--but that was never really in anyone's plan now, was it.
A what if everyone lived AU.

Bookmarker's Notes
hands down my favourite bruce wayne characterisation, hands down. im serious. scott snyder who? bc this is him. this is bruce wayne. he is simeoultaneously so awkward and so smooth, so charismatic and so socially inept. he's just so weird and it makes so much sense tha he would go on to fight crime in a batsuit. ur ocs never miss eiteherrrr peace and love
