    Summary

    Was this Tim's final moments? Moments stuck in an eternity of time loops taunting him with his loved ones?

    Was the deaths he tried to attempt didn’t work because he was already dying?

    Tears fell down his face, he looked down at the pawn in his hand.

    A game of chess that never ended, with the ones who were long gone staring at him?

    Summary

    Disoriented, he couldn’t breathe. A thick substance surrounded him, rifling its way into his lungs. Spider swam to the surface, his hand breaking through first. He jerkily rose, his movement barely coordinated. Eyes snapped open to reveal the glow of an unnatural green, a hiss passing his lips.

    “Peter.” A voice said. A voice Spider didn’t recognise.

    Or another Peter in Gotham story but it starts a little differently.

    Summary

    He thrashed, eyes flying open against the gritty burn, arms and legs flailing against the viscous green goo he was suspended in. Green green green. Everything was green, it seeped into his pours, tainting his skin. He tried to claw himself upwards but he didn't know which way was up. Nausea flooded his stomach, bile building in his mouth and mixing with the green. He retched into the water, sucking in more green with each gag. He arched, legs kicking out against nothing as he clawed at his throat. Darkness crept into the corners of his eyes, creeping closer and closer and Peter heaved and gasped into the green.

    Everything went dark.

    “No, c’mon Spider-Man, that way is up.”

    -

    Peter Parker dies on Titan, staring up at a yellow sky that he wished was blue, and then he was choking back to life in a pool of green. He doesn’t know what’s happening, but his healing factor is being weird and he doesn’t look like he did before.

    The man in the Red Hood says he can help, and maybe, just maybe, Peter will let him.

    Summary

    He didn’t feel the cold anymore. The snow landed softly on his broken body, unnoticed. Somewhere in the distance, people screamed, their panic a faint murmur against the overwhelming silence inside him.

    Spider-Man had always known he’d die someday.

    But the truth was, he was afraid of death.

    The next time when Peter woke up, he found himself drowning in some unknown substance, his eyes burning open and limbs secured by what felt like metal. The water filled his mouth, nose, ears, and lungs, causing a searing sensation within him. He could feel his body attempting to heal, stitching up wounds as he struggled to remember the exact reason why this was happening. His muscles burned with exertion. The boy choked on the liquid until he could do so no longer.

    He was pulled upward, unable to hear anything but a ringing in his ears. Coughing up blood and the green liquid, he turned his head to avoid further choking. The chains grated painfully against his skin, causing irritation and overwhelming stimulation. His wet clothes aggravated his skin, provoking an urge to scratch despite knowing there would be no relief. The rough texture of the table scraped against his bare feet and arms.

    Summary

    Bruce had promised.

    "If I ever have to face him alone, I’ll come home."

    That had been years ago. Some night when Gotham had been quiet for once, when Bruce had actually sat down, looked them all in the eyes, and said it.

    ———

    Summary

    Tim Drake shouldn't be alive. He wishes he wasn't.

    But what's done is done. Now, he finds himself seven years later, struggling to put together the shattered remains of both his life and his mind. He's doing his best, but everything around him just seems so broken. In order to fix things, he supposed you would have to break them a little bit more. There's so much to be done and so little time, and things change too rapidly to make a concrete plan. Everything has gone far beyond his control.

    But if he could keep his head above water long enough, if he could plan well enough, and if he could manipulate enough people, then he would be in control again. He just knew it.

    “You were my favorite.”
    Jason froze, his hands hovering over the makeshift bandage. The word favorite was like shrapnel hitting his heart.

    Summary

    There are sounds that Jon Kent always listened for.
    Like the sound of his grandpa’s truck.
    Or the sound of his mother typing.
    Or the sound of the flutter of his dad’s cape.
    Or Damian’s heartbeat. 
    Jon couldn’t stop listening to those things. Or listening out for them. No matter how tired he was, or what he was doing...
    The moment Damian’s heart stops so does Jon’s.


    When Damian Wayne is killed and brought back to life again, it comes with consequences.

    Consequences like demons living in his mind, and driving him insane.

    So when he finds an outlet - a way to stop the voices in his head - Damian falls down a rabbit hole into one of the most debaucherous clubs in all of Gotham.

    And wherever Damian goes, Jon will follow.

    Summary

    He was floating in it, unable to find some essence of comfort. Countless seconds and minutes and hours of this torture. He felt like he was unraveling, losing himself. There was no luxury of dissociating from it, it was constantly there digging into his very being, his very thoughts, his very soul-

    A pause in the mind numbing burn. He felt something tugging him into the green. Finally, the feeling of freedom from this state of being, accompanied by a flash of vivid, toxic green.

    (Or, I basically wanted my own version of Peter Parker in Gotham teehee. It is my first actual fanfic, so go easy on me!)

    Summary

    Jason has a bad day. Leads into a massively volatile patrol and a confrontation on the roof with Nightwing.

    ///

    There’s a passing thought that he should call Roy. To just leave town and go do something fucking insane because maybe it’ll quiet his brain.

    He doesn’t move from his spot, staring a hole into the wall. He can see every scrape and dent to exist in that wall. He has categorized it several times. It never helps when he’s like this.

    He knows he won’t move until it’s time to patrol. Not unless one of his brothers show up. Or Roy. Why call him when it’s not his problem to begin with? Why call any of them?

    Summary

    "A sewer. A sewer in hell. Why does hell need a sewer?" Peter asked himself then went silent as he saw something pass by his cave. It was huge and scaly.

    Right, demons.

    ~~~~~~

    A story I made where Peter wakes up in a small cave in Gotham and thinks "this place must be hell."

    Summary

    After losing the fight with Thanos, Peter is left in a bad way. A very bad way. When the snap happens, Peter knows there is no escape.
    He doesn't expect to wake up drowning in green.
    OR!
    Another Peter Parker in the DCU.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    “I hope they remember you.” Thanos raised his hand, stones glowing.

    “Wait, wait, stop, please!” Peter’s ribs ached, his lungs trembling with the need for air, but Peter couldn’t stand there and watch Mr. Stark die, he just couldn’t. With a thwip of his webs, he slid in between Mr. Stark and Thanos. “Can’t we talk about this?” He pleaded.

    “Kid, don’t.” Mr. Stark gasped.

    “There is nothing to say. The universe must be saved and this is the only way.” Thanos’s eyes on Peter chilled him to the bone. Peter had seen a lot since he started running around Queens as Spider-Man. A lot. He’d seen crazy eyes, angry eyes, sad eyes, eyes full of grief, eyes full of fear. Never before had he seen such emotionless eyes as those Thanos had. There was no hate, anger, or fear in those eyes. They were completely calm.

    They didn’t look crazy at all, and it was terrifying to see when he knew just what the Titan had planned.

    Summary

    Spider-Man and a couple of his close friends have been looking for a very annoying villain. A very villainous villain. The evilest of evil... You get the point. Well, said villain has this crazy tool that well... kills them. All of them. Even villain guy. BUT luckily, said mysterious tool somehow transports them to *drum roll* GOTHAM CITY. YAHOO!!! No cheers? Well, I'm cheering anyway! *pinky finger flips you off*

    Peter and his friends now have to somehow navigate this gloomy and mysterious city all by themselves. Some of them find whatever green water they were in changes them completely. Also, this city has its own little gang of vigilantes so that's cool. Maybe they all can be friends. The villains, however, Peter thinks, could be less daunting and silly.

    Simply put, it's my own twist to the Peter in Gotham fics that includes SpideyPool and a couple of my fav boys (and gals).
