Watching White Collar for the first time from the perspective that it's Dick Grayson undercover (haven't figured out WHY yet, though I know League of Assassins in the FBI is a popular fanon) is actually insane because so far (6 episodes in) there hasn't been so much as a single line that breaks the illusion. Sure there's some Neal-backstory stuff I'm not sure what the "explanation" is for yet, but practically every scene from Neal is EXACTLY what I'd expect him to say/do/feel if he was Dick Grayson undercover.

There are even little things that just Make More Sense, like Neal somehow arranging a fancy venue for a fashion week party off-screen, or how when Peter, rattling off the virtues of a woman Neal might be interested in, says "she bakes cookies for orphans" it THROWS him for a moment and he repeats it in a stunned (dare I say sort of homesick) way, or when Moz says to him "You're Robin-" he immediately TURNS his face/body away from him before Moz finishes "Hood"

Actually losing my mind over here

I love reading and writing wc/dc fics where Peter is shocked to find out that people call Dick Dick. As if i wouldn’t get my friends to call me dick if my parents had named me Richard.

quick drawing of Tim for my newest fic :D (a sequel to my old WCDC fic!!)

[greetings-humans]

neal!dick fic sequel update: 11k words in and we are going somewhere finally!!! I've reworked a few plot details and now it's making sense!!! I think I'm past the middle at least... getting closer to the end of thr fic! this one might be a two-shot instead of an one-shot but we'll see!

also white collar crime might be a bit boring to write but not when it's not as vanilla as you'd expect teehee~ (to clarify, it's still white collar, we're not in the business of violent crimes in this ficverse yet but it ain't typical white collar human stuff either)

btw if u don't know what the fuck I'm talking about, it's the sequel to this fic of mine (which is locked to ao3 users fyi)

Este fue un trabajo de animación 2d que termino siendo un comic por que el profe le dio wueba enseñarnos las bases de la animación supongo el proyecto se llama " Will cabeza de calabaza" y uno de los puntos era se contara junto con música y sin necesidad de diálogos por que originalmente fue planeado para ser animado, pero la dirección de la clase no termino como esperábamos.

Tal vez lo retomo algún día al menos para terminar la historia ya que no era muy larga.

La Rencontre, Gustave Courbet

Selina Kyle is retired. Mostly. But she still has an eye for talent and like recognizes like one day in a thrift store. White Collar x DC Crossover Week Day 1 - Monday, June 23 Identity Porn || Soulmate AU || Canon!Neal

for @whitecollardcweek 's WCxDC crossover week 2025 :))

also title is an actual painting bc i couldn't help myself from titling my wc fics after real artworks bc why not

translation: The Meeting, Gustave Courbet (which i thought was fitting)

crossposted on ao3

wc: 1.2k

Selina Kyle had had a good life. There’d been plenty of fun times spent stealing from museums, robbing the rich, evading law enforcement and generally enjoying life and causing mischief. She was older now, she’d had her fun, and she was ready to retire. For a moment, so was Bruce.

Not entirely, of course, but mostly. Pulling up new civilian identities and living calmly for a few years with less of a threat of being arrested was a great retirement plan for them. (Although the civilian identities they chose weren’t exactly shining citizens…) And sure, they didn’t take their retirement sitting down, they still had their fun. But smaller things, like sneaking into places they shouldn’t have been and pickpocketing stuffy, rich people on the street (they chose their targets carefully, of course). Less fighting villains and thwarting goons. But while this entertained Selina enough, Bruce grew restless.

So, she told him to fake his death and get back to his kids. They could see each other as strangers next time.

He was resistant at first, not wanting to go back to the life he’d given up for her in the first place, not wanting to hurt her by having her think that their life wasn’t enough, she wasn’t enough. What a silly thought, she knew he loved her, as she loved him, but she also knew he loved his city and kids just as much, and as fun as they’d had together in the past few years, there’d always been a part of him that had stayed in Gotham.

She didn’t blame him; they were two separate people whose lives had entangled and run parallel for a while. Just because they wouldn’t see each other as often, didn’t mean they’d never see each other again, or stop loving each other. Selina helped him get his affairs in order before saying a last goodbye as her husband one Saturday in Spring. (It wasn’t a forever goodbye, even though she didn’t travel around too much anymore, she still had to visit her own friends and kittens in Gotham, they weren’t just Bruce’s kids, after all.)

It was different living without him in that big, old house, surrounded by memories of him, them, her past lives and capers. She had her cats for company but for as much as she loved them, it was still strange being surrounded by so much silence some days. She held on to Bruce’s stuff for far longer than she needed too, but she brushed it off as still needing to play the grieving widow role. But finally, about a year later, she packed up some of his old suits and made her way to the thrift store down the block.

He caught her eye immediately, and she knew he noticed her, even though he was subtle about approaching. She didn’t recognize him, but she recognized his style, his movements, the way his eyes flicked between exits, pockets and shiny things. Oooooooh, interesting. Could this be a mini-me?

She laid the garment bag on the counter. “I’ve come to donate these.”

The staff behind the counter opened the bag to look through the suits. She watched out of the corner of her eye as the man walked casually behind her to browse the Christmas ornament section, subtly eyeing her and the suits.

“Those are fantastic,” came an awed voice behind her.

She gave a small laugh as she turned to face the man. “They belonged to my late husband,” she said, “Byron. He really did have great taste in suits.”

“Oh wow,” he breathed. “May I?”

The store clerk handed over the jacket and he took it. “Thank you.” He pulled his own jacket off and he did a double take at the tag. “This is a Devore,” he said looking up at her.

She smiled at his stunned expression. “Yes, he won it from Sy himself.”

“Won it.” The man shook his head disbelievingly.

“He beat him at a backdoor draw,” she said conspiratorially.

They both chuckled.

“Your husband played poker with Sy Devore,” he repeated like he couldn’t believe it, shrugging on the jacket.

To be truthful, it was one of the more out there things they’d done together. For them, at least. Normal was racing across Gotham rooftops and their game of cat and mouse- or rather, Bat and Cat. “He certainly did.” She smiled. “And so did I.”

“No,” he whispered, wide eyed and excited. She recognized that look as one she'd gotten when inspiration for successful heists struck, she had a feeling he was familiar with the feeling too.

“Yes, the guys would even let me sit in once in a while on a hand. And I was good.” She shook a finger at him teasingly, making sure he knew it too. She thought he could read that she had similar … propensities as him, at least, she hoped he was good enough to figure that out.

He took the jacket off and spotted the hat sitting on the counter. He grabbed it and flipped it on his head in a fancy but fluid motion. Colour her impressed, she liked his style.

She smiled fondly. “I’m glad to see you appreciate these. I was hoping someone would.”

The man tilted the hat further back on his head and flashed her a grin.

“I’ve got a whole closet full of ‘em.”

His eyebrows rose. “A whole closet?”

He looked down on his luck, thumbing through the clothes here, she wondered what had happened, or if he was just trying to find clothes for a con and was an excellent artist, able to fool even her. She nodded. “Mhm, well, actually it’s a guest room but-” she glanced away for a second, even fake death changed things and left some weird guilt to work through “-but I haven’t used it for anything except storage for years.”

He picked up another jacket to try on and she felt her eyes misting up. “Ohh,” she breathed. “Byron used to wear that whenever we went dancing.” (Occasionally dancing through closed art galleries they weren’t supposed to be in or galas before she robbed them and Bruce looked the other way or chased her over rooftops, depending on her target.)

The man in front of her slid his hands in his pockets and rocked back on his feet, listening to her attentively.

“The neighbourhood was … well, let’s just say it was much nicer back then.”

“You live nearby…?” he asked, a gleam in his eye.

Selina thought she knew where this was headed. She couldn’t say she wasn’t open to the idea. “Not far…” She smiled at him.

He returned her smile. “Neal Caffrey,” he introduced and held out a hand. “I’m looking for a place to stay on 700 a month.”

Neal Caffrey, huh? She’d heard his name before and was honestly impressed with some of the jobs she’d heard he’d pulled. She’d heard he’d got caught, but evidently, he was out now. This could be interesting.

“I hope you’re not allergic to cats,” she said reaching out to shake his hand. “June Ellington, a pleasure to meet you. And I’m sure we can work with that budget, why don’t you come with me, I’ll show you around.”

“The pleasure is all mine, June, lead the way.”

[Can be read as stand-alone]

[asteriskemily]

Peter liked having a boring, safe job that primarily consisted of looking for slight inconsistencies in piles of paper work. He really didn’t like it when his job led to him sitting on the ground next to his CI because Neal—who wasn’t even supposed to be in the building—decided to use his body as a shield when their perp wanted to test out the magical amulet that he’d just stolen on Peter.

Or, Neal gets de-aged and doesn’t react well to being surrounded by agents.

Chapter 8 of While You Were Missing

[ectojester]

Does anyone have fic recs for Neal Caffrey being a former Robin? Or like batfam-affiliated? Not Dick or Jason or Tim or Damian pretending to be Neal, but literally a whole separate person who doesn't exist in the comics?
