Summary
"C.C Haly was warned about Gotham. In a city ridden with crime, you must keep an eye on your things. If it weren’t for one of Gotham’s characters breaking out of its feared asylum and wreaking havoc on the city, the circus would have kept a better eye on their equipment. As it stands, Haly is now staring at the empty spot the trapeze equipment is supposed to be in, feeling bewildered and annoyed. Who has any use for trapeze equipment outside the circus? Better yet, how had no one seen the large platforms being moved out of the tent?"
--
When the trapeze equipment is inexplicably stolen the day before the first performance of Haly’s Circus in Gotham, the members rush to build a makeshift setup that is fairly stable, albeit lower to the ground than it usually is. Therefore, when Zucco sabotages the gear, John and Mary Grayson don’t make an orphan out of their son.

Summary
Bruce Wayne is a large man- thats evident even when sitting in a tiny cell. Broad shouldered, with a sharp jaw. Even sharper eyes, that follow every movement as Clark settles in the chair and sifts through a few papers. If Clark focuses his senses, he can tell many more things about Bruce- that his body is covered in a litter of scars, both large and small. That his heartbeat is still steady and even, focused but calm. If he uses his x-ray vision, he can tell that its been probably seven hours since Bruce has eaten, but of course Clark doesn’t do that. That would be weird.
And a thing Clark definitely doesn’t notice about Bruce Wayne is how handsome he is. If it weren’t for the Arkham jumpsuit, the ear-length shaggy hair, and the light coat of stubble, you could still imagine him as the charming Gotham rich boy he was meant to be.
But he isn’t. He’s not Bruce Wayne, billionaire orphan anymore. Now, he’s Bruce Wayne, mass murderer, with thirty-six known victims.
a world where Bruce Wayne didn't become Batman, and tried to fix Gotham in a different way. Au by @Frownyalfred on tumblr

Summary
literally a year ago my dear friend red said: "hands you the concept of people leaving food out for the eldritch birds, and eventually someone invites one of them in for an actual meal (definitely Tim) and that is how Gotham learns if you invite one you will end up with All Of Them - small tasks will get done around your home while they chatter to each other, you don’t have to feed them all, but they will be grateful and you will find helpful little things left at your window sill after"
and i said yeah i could write that

Summary
His typing slowly stops and his eyes tear up as he stares at the glimmering screen, “They’re happy- “ “-They’re actually happy“
Just then the Batman to his side groans, head lolling to the side, as he’d evidently fallen asleep mid-word. His breath sinks of alcohol that Bruce hadn’t drank since he took Jason in and his hands seem weak.
“And I’m not“ he finished in quiet contemplation.
He no longer has to wonder what would’ve happened had he not taken Dick in. He knows and he doesn’t think he’s happier for it.
He’d made his kids lives worse and he’d have to live with that.
Or; Batman is in for a rude awakening

Summary
There was a boy on the roof.
This was not, unfortunately, an uncommon occurrence. No matter how high the rooftop or how improbable the perch, dark haired, blue eyed little boys were all too frequently there. Being impediments. Causing problems. Existing.
What was uncommon was that this blue eyed, dark haired little boy was not in a mask and cape. Instead he was wearing a sodden sweater and expensive sneakers and staring at her with a look both baffled and utterly betrayed.
(Selina finds a child. Unbeknownst to everyone, this is the start of a lucrative (and beautiful) relationship)

Summary
Dick, Jason, and Tim were kids when Bruce faked his death and abandoned them in a burning building. Jason and Tim were kids when they reunited and set out together to repair their lives. They were still kids when all three learned that their adopted father was not only alive, but Batman.
Fast forward through a lot of pain, a bullet in the Joker's head, two new siblings, and a new life.
Three years later, Tim is still a kid, one who hasn't shaken off the trauma of killing a man. Jason is nineteen and legally dead, unsure what to do with his life outside of the Red Hood. Dick is twenty two and hiding Bruce's attempts at contacting him from the rest of the family. They, along with Cass and Damian, are still unsure where they fit in a life they never thought they'd have. Added to that is the stress of their second lives as the vigilantes protecting Bludhaven's streets.
But, as the little family will soon find out, you can't best the Bat and live unbothered. Other heroes are curious about this group, who not only won a fight with Batman, but killed his greatest rival. They have questions.

Summary
The Waynes were a normal family.
When Bruce’s parents had died, it was a tragedy, and yet it seemed to only fuel the young heir to help as many people as they could.
(It was technically a homeless shelter with a soup kitchen, and some general classes given by the people, for the people. Everything was free, all they asked was that they give back to the community in some way. The Second Chance, it was called.)
Regardless, a certain group still ended up meeting.
