#Peter gets sent to Gotham

[lurafita]

Nice to see you back!

Think you will write a Batfam/Spidey crossovr yurself?

Hi there! :-) I don't think I will. While I do like the general idea, the few fics I have partly read, which seem to be the most popular, follow a certain way in how they handle the different characters that I would not. And since these are the popular stories, I can only assume that readers prefer the way the characters are written in those. So if I were to try my hand at it, most people probably wouldn't like it.

And I know that we all say how writing is for oneself and not for the masses, and that we need to create our own stories in our own ways, and I have such respect and awe for people who create true eposes of stories with hardly any followings... But what can I say? I like the kudos, I like the comments, I like the bookmarks and subscriptions. If I believe a story wouldn't find appreciation, I'm just less motivated to write it.

And my Peter Parker being stranded in Gotham, coming into contact with the Bat-fam, after all the shit that happened to him... He would be *very* different from the way I have seen him written in the other stories.

For one, I would crank up his sass meter. I feel like that gets neglected a lot in fics today. For another, he would call Batman out on his self-righteous hipocrisy and borderline xenophobia. (I actually don't like Batman, not the way he is canonically presented. I could make him likeable - to my taste - in the fic, after a bit of a growth/change arc. But yes. I would change him, and most fans probably wouldn't like that) And for the most important (to me) part, I would make Peter the bamf he deserves to be. I'm sorry, I don't mean any offense to the fans of the bats, but they are human. They are highly trained, but they are human. And a lot of them are teens and even pre-teens. I don't buy that they can easily beat Spidey, unless Peter is holding back A LOT. Like, a lot a lot. Like a whole lot. (But that's not the kinda vibe I got from the parts I read of the other fics, so...)

So, yeah... I don't think my take on this popular trope would be appreciated, so I'm not going to bother. :-) XD

But thanks so much for the interest. Feel free to ask any questions you want. I might not be able to answer right away, but I will try to check back into tumblr at least daily.

Have a nice week and remember to stay hydrated. :-)

Spider Man Angst

Someone needs to make an edit of Peter Parker with the song "Alone again naturally" in the background and cut to the scene where he's alone under the building the vulture dropped on him, when he's mourning iron man's death by himself on the roof and when he's by himself at the apartment in NWH and then it plays the naturally part

[on-the-clear-blue]

Dead Man's Diner drabbles since I need to get back into writing it.

Robber, bursting through the door, gun already pulled out and shouting: EVERYBODY PUT YOUR FUCKING HANDS UP AND OPEN UP YOUR WALLETS

The whole God damn Batfam just looking up from their respective places in the diner:..

Danny, behind the counter, tired as hell from basically taking over feeding them all: Take the fucking shot.

---

Nightwing, laying dramatically over the breakfast bar as Danny walks in, a rose between his teeth: Hi~ I need to place an order

Danny, woke up 15 minutes ago: It is to early for this (it's 7 pm)

Nightwing, watching as Dany just turns around and leaves the diner: Wait no.

---

Bart/Wally/Berry, finally done helping their respective Bat with Gotham Things ™️, stumbling upon the Diner:Sweet, no need to run back home on empty!

Danny, seeing the one that he has seen Clockwork scream about walk into his diner: shit I gotta make a call.

(15 Minutes later)

Bart/Wally/Berry crying into a massive plie of pancakes as Clockwork reads them yo filth.

---

Wes, grumbling as he is kicked out of the diner for the fifth time this week: God damn it Fenton! Stopping hiding your ghostly existence! The people demand the truth!

Bernard, there because Tim recommended it, trying and failing to hit taking him there for a date, head snapping over to Wes like a horror movie: I sense a conspiracy theory.

---

Cass, squating on a bar stool: *pouting face*

Danny, squinting at her: No.

Cass, looking up at him with the most hurt expression: *kicked puppy look*

Danny, feeling terrible:Okay! Okay I will get Cujo to come over! A-and I will throw in Ellie!

Cass, breaking unto a smile: and hot coco?

Danny, fully broken by her: Sure, why the hell not.

---

Tucker and Sam, finally coming into the diner: honestly? Not as bad as I thought it would be.

(A Bat getting chucked through the door, and Rouge following after)

Tucker:Holy...is he okay?

Sam: I take back what I said.

Danny, looking at the property damage:Nope...nope this is normal, Red Hood your tab just doubled.

Jason, fully concussed: Sure thing...babe...

---

Based on an idea I have for later on, Jason and Danny are in the middle stage between friends and Dating and Jason finally gets to meet the other two of the everlasting trio...

Sam, has a baseball bat in hand that is starting to sprout out branches: You hurt Danny and you'll end up dead again, and this time you won't have the hands to dig your way out.

Tucker, with sparks flashing in his eyes and a grin on his face, his PDA blinks with info that no civilian should have: Jason Peter Todd-Wayne, I know all about you, mess things up with Danny and your Pride and Prejudice Self insert fanfiction gets shared with your family, as well as your Wattpad and Tumblr accounts will be sent directly to the Justice Leauge.

Jason, crying a little bit:Danny your friends are terrifying.

Danny, walking out in a pink apron:Oh shit...ugh, Sam! Tucker! I told you dont do that!.

---

Vlad, being a creep to Danny: Oh little badger...truly looking forward to seeing you begging for your life once more

Jason, equidded with Fenton works guns: Anyway I started Blasting.

I've stumbled down the Peter in Gotham rabbit hole and I've never been the same. Currently I'm on the whole Dick Grayson is Peter Parker's Biological Parent kick along with the Peter contains (part of) the Soul infinity stone. If I were combine these two many misunderstandings may arise for angst, drama, and comedy.

Apologies for my ramblings of this ridiculous possible fic idea.

Isekai'd protagonist Peter Parker is sent to Gotham a few months after the events of No Way Home. He enters Gotham as Peter NOT Spider-man.

Curses his Parker Luck™ and navigates around. -> Bat fam is not going to be involved much in the beginning until shit really hits the fan <-

Won't be spider-manning but that ain't going to stop him from helping the little guy. Since we are combining the soul infinity stone plot, Peter's eyes turn golden at time when he unconsciously uses the stone's abilities. (If you see my vision, you'll know where I'm going with this.)

Peter tries to keep a low profile but he does end up making a bit of a name for himself. It's not until a Gothamite catches wind of eyes that they get terrified and think he's a rogue talon. It doesn't help that the spider bite messed with Peter's thermoregulation (idk if it's canon but I do see this from time to time) so they see that he's vulnerable to cold weather.

Dick is away on a space mission when all this is going down. (I remember a comment on one fic that said Dick's life changing events happen when he's in space. Peter can relate.)

Rumor reaches Bab's as well as the Court of Owls too.

The court sends someone who gets bested in a fight with Peter but they survive being terminated on the pure chance that they got a bit of his DNA. Guess who it matches? Gray Son of Gotham

It's not until the talons are being spotted all over Gotham that puts Peter in the bat's attention.

The bat fam pretty much think Peter is a rogue talon that was raised as a replacement for Dick. Dick’s horrified that his son (his son!) ended up taking his place and trying his hardest to bring Peter home. They think that Peter's abilities are all from the Electrum enhancement. (Wrong) Peter is ignoring and evading the court and the vigilantes while helping out a person or two.

The stone just cranks his spider-sense to over 9000. It will take a while for Peter to realize that he can talk to ghosts cause of this since their visibility can't be distinguished from the living. (Souls are tricky!)

The Al Ghul Siblings

DP x DC x MLB x Marvel Prompt

Damian wasn't the only child of Bruce and Talia, but the youngest of 4.

 

Mariam, the Eldest daughter of Bruce and Talia, whose strategies could turn the tide of battles she is part of.

 

The twins, Danyal and Boutros (Peter in Arabic), Danyal, who was so good at stealth that he wouldn't let you know he was there until he wanted you to know, and Boutros, whose awareness was so sharp, that none could get the drop on him, both Twins Rival Ra's and Taila in these aspects.

 

Damian is the child that excels in combat out of the four, constantly trying to he like his older siblings.

 

Mariam had to leave the League, because of what Talia overheard the plans Ra's had for her daughter. She sent Mariam to Paris under a new name, Marinette. Where Marinette would be left with people Talia trusts.

 

The twins had a bit more tragic fate, Boutros was fatally wounded during a rebellion in the League, he was dipped in the Lazarus Pit, but never resurfaced.

 

Danyal was sent away by Talia to an orphanage, Damian wasn't told where though, but a few years later, Damian was brought to Bruce.

 

Mari was contacted by Danyal one day via a letter with a familiar symbol on it, they send each other letters from time to time, but can't reach out to Damian, fearing that they would be found by Ra's.

 

The events of Danny Phantom happened regularly, but with Danny becoming the Heir to the Throne for the Infinite Realms.

 

But when the Nasty Burger does explode, Danny doesn't go to Vlad, he runs away and goes to Paris to be with his other sister.

 

Mari became the holder of the Ladybug Miraculous, and told her foster parents about her being Ladybug a few days before Danny came to their place.

 

When Danny did arrive at the place, it was during a heavy storm, and Danny didn't have a coat, so he was standing in the heavy downpour, arms crossed and looking so sad and heartbroken.

 

After some explanations, and seeing Danny being able to resist the Akuma Hawkmoth sent to corrupt him, Danny is welcomed by Mari's foster parents to live with them.

 

A few weeks with Danny living in Paris, a green portal opens up in the living room with Danny and Mari in it, they are ready for a fight, but they see an older (but still the same age as Danny) Boutros stumble out of it wearing a spider themed hero suit, it's a tearful reunion, with a being in a purple robe smiling to himself elsewhere, where a family is soon to be reunited, and where an almost exact replica of Boutros would be placed back in the dimension he found himself in to prevent the timeline of that dimension from destabilizing.

 

The twins and the Eldest Daughter worked together with Cat Noir and other Miraculous holders to take down Hawk Moth in a few days. The Trio of siblings decided that they will take a risk, they head to Gotham to reconnect with Damian

AU List

Hello! Welcome! This is my attempt at keeping the AU's boiuncing around in my head in order. They should be mostly in chronological order.

Some of them are getting turned into full length fics! The list (and it's open to suggestions) can be found here: Fic List

A couple of things:

Please feel free to write your own fics based on any of these! No need to ask, simply link it so I can also read it <3

If you have any specific scenarios you have an idea for and would like me to write- my asks/prompts are always open! I can't guarantee quality as I do most of my writing at like, 3 AM but I'll try my best!

Please don't send me unsolicited prompts in my messages, as it stresses me out. Not because I don't want to do them, but because the prompts are not in the correct place (if that makes sense?) my brain is being (unironically) neurotic about it. Prompts sent to the asks are okay and will probably be fulfilled.

I don't condone racism, bigotry, homophobia, etc.. I do not welcome it here. I acknowledge that I have biases that I've yet to unlearn. If there's something that makes you feel unwelcome in the things I write, please let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

I write these mostly on little to no sleep (that’s when I get creative I guess?) so good luck.

Update: Apparently you can have too many links on one post (which was news to me) so the links are in the titles lol

Young Justice Spider.

I have seen a lot of post where Spider-Man gets sent to Gotham because Dr strange’s memory erasing spell means he can’t stay in the marvel universe anymore, and get adopted by the batfam. But there are not a lot of fics with him and young justice. (Unless you count tiny one shots.)

But what if he landed somewhere else? What if typical Parker luck caused him to enter the dc universe somewhere less favorable because that is where the action would be happening next?

I am going to have the portal spit him out in the underground levels of Cadmus labs on the day that Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad go to investigate the fire but end up rescuing Superboy. In fact I think I will have his sudden appearance be why the main psychic genomorph decided to do the fire that day instead of later like planned.

So Cadmus security is already distracted and busy trying to catch one intruder that they miss the side kicks arising and entering through the express elevator. Robin hacks the system and finds project Kr and that there seems to be an “asset” trying to escape. They search and Find Spidey first and since aren’t setting off the spider sense like everything else in the building is he quickly agrees to go with them.

Then they go down to the level project Kr is on, and like in the episode, release the clone. Peter’s Spider sense goes off and he intercepts the attack. Because Superboy is only half kryptonian and hasn’t had natural sunlight yet they are evenly matched strength wise, but Superboy is a tad faster. It isn’t until the scientist Desmond orders the psychic genomorph to psy-blast Spidey that Superboy gets the upper hand and takes him and the other side kicks out.

The rest of the escape happens like in the episode where Superboy changes sides and rescues them from the cloning lab. Then they fight the roided up Desmond/Blockbuster and bring the building down on the former scientist.

When the Justice league gets there and the explain what happened, the adults of course also ask who Spider-man is. Fortunately Robin and Kid Flash made it seem like he was an escaping clone and Peter has the presence of mind to go with the cover story they accidentally gave. So he will be staying in the young justice base with Superboy.

Ok lunch is ending for me, so let’s see what other people can add onto this.

[spidey-ramblings]

Another idea for a neglected reader I have is a Tank Dempsey reader.

Similarly to the Captain America reader, Tank Dempsey reader is a soldier during WWII. The only difference would be that Tank Dempsey reader wasn’t a sickly child, in fact he was usually the biggest and strongest kid on the playground. But, because this is a neglected child fic, Tank Dempsey reader would still be overlooked because his presence was deemed inconvenient by Bruce and co.

Being a tough kid who never begs for anything, Tank Dempsey reader doesn’t bother with trying to gain their affections. He knows he’s a good kid, his momma always told him so. He may not be as smart as Tim, but he is passing his classes. He’s the quarterback on his school’s football team. And, he regularly volunteers at soup kitchens to give back to his community because his momma taught him to emphasize with the less fortunate. So, he is a good kid and if Bruce can’t see that, then he won’t force them to pay attention to him.

Once Tank Dempsey reader gets older, he decides to enlist in the Marines, not to escape his family, but because he genuinely wants to serve his country. Around 1942 the reader is sent off to the pacific to help push back Japanese forces. Later he’ll lead recon team into the Verrückt asylum to retrieve Peter McCain. With no sign of McCain, Tank Dempsey reader and his crew are overrun by hoards of the undead. Tank Dempsey reader will be only one of two survivors and is captured by Group 935 shortly after, and is subjected to experimentation.

The only reason the Batfamily even discovers that Tank Dempsey! Reader had left and joined the Marines is when they get a letter declaring him to be M.I.A. In true neglectful family to yandere style, they’re devastated, even more so when they realize they have virtually no memories of ever bonding with him. They begin to wonder why they never bothered to notice Tank Dempsey reader in the first place. Sure, he might not have had the same detective skills they had, but his old report cards (that Alfred had secretly stashed away in the hopes that Bruce would one day notice) clearly showed that he could be taught. Not to mention that he’s always been strong and would’ve been perfectly capable of dawning a mask like them. Immediately they try to investigate further, not believing that Tank Dempsey! Reader would’ve easily gone down like that, but when they come up empty handed, frustrations arise and they begin to wonder just who captured him.

Tank Dempsey! Reader wakes up strapped to a table. His head is pounding, ears are ringing, and there are all sorts of machines hooked up to him. From the corner of his eye, he makes out a slim silhouette, male judging by the build. He doesn’t get much time to question before a crazed laughter fills the air. The last thing he remembers is a skull splitting pain and the sound of his screams before he passes out again.

Tank Dempsey reader isn’t sure how much time has passed, could have been months, could have been years. But, when he’s released from his prison, it’s not because he’d been rescued, but rather it’s because zombies have completely taken over and Richtofen needs himself and two other unfortunate prisoners to protect him as they make their escape. Tank Dempsey reader has no clue that this is only the beginning of his doom.

When word of a zombie outbreak reaches Gotham, the Batfamily’s first thoughts are of Tank Dempsey reader. Is he alright? Is he dead? Did he become one of those things? The uncertainty and the rapidly approaching threat sends them further into a spiral, one that might only worsen if they knew just what crazy Tank Dempsey reader was involved in now.

OK GOING OFF THE SCOTT BEING TAKEN TO MY HORIZON

(I’m rlly sad rn)

Anyways, could you do something where like it’s like idk a “visitation day” where like some family members can come and visit a few months in… and like yk his gf comes 🥺🥺

〃 VISITING DAY ” ☆

a/n: Elaine isn't in this, so it's just his mom

“You excited?” Auggie asks Scott. “Yeah, but im more nervous than anything.” The blond sighs. “I haven't seen her in so long. What if she gets here and tells me that she found another guy, you know? A normal one.”

Auggie laughs and shakes his head. “Dude, you're paranoid, chill. You've been together for what? Two years and a half? She ain't gonna leave you, man.” Scott looks over at Auggie. “You don't know that. Seriously, even when I was back at school and people knew about us, guys would still try and get at her. Now that im gone, who knows what has happened.”

“Sounds like you've got some serious trust issues.” Auggie shrugs his shoulders and leans back into his chair. “Even if she leaves you, ya got Jules and Shelby.”

Scott glares. “Hell no. Jules is annoying and Shelby... she's not my type.” He kisses his teeth and starts bouncing his leg. “Yeah, but they're there if you-”

“Shut up.” Scott cuts him off.

Moments later, you and his parents walk into the room. Scott stands up quickly and waits for you all to walk up to him. “Oh, Scott. We've missed you!” His mom says and hugs Scott right away. “I missed you too, mom.”

“Dad.” He nods at Martin. Then, when his mom let go of him, he fixated his eyes on you with a shy smile. “Hey..”

“Don't just stand there. Do something.” You smile, and right away, he pulls you into an embrace. “I've missed you so so much.” He kisses all over your face. “Its been hell not being able to see you.” He cups your face. “Same here.” You giggle and boop his nose. “I cant believe this is real.”

Scott sighs and rests his forehead against yours. “You smell good.” He mutters. “Well, I'm wearing the perfume you like. And even better, I brought it so that you can keep it while you're here. So you dont miss me too much.”

Scott rolls his eyes with a playful smirk. “How thoughtful.”

ᯓᡣ𐭩 —

His parents took you two to dinner. There was lots of chatting, laughter, and overall just good vibes.

On the car ride back, Scott was all over you.. sort of. It needed to be appropriate since his parents were in the front. “I dont want you to go. Can't you just pick up a really bad addiction and get sent here with me?” He nuzzles into your shoulder.

“I'll try my best.” You smile and run your fingers through his hair. “I'd recommend cocaine or heroin.”

“Scott.” His mother looks back from the front, and he laughs. “Gotta do what ya gotta do, mom. ”

“All for some hanky panky.” His father snickers.

“Dad, dont call it that. That's gross.” Scott rolls his eyes. True or not—Scott mostly only wanted you there because he missed you in general. Your laughter, stupid jokes, weird attitude—all of it. He missed your presence.

“Promise you'll keep writing? And that you'll come back..” He whispers to you as you say goodbye outside of the entrance.

“Yes, I'll l keep writing, and ill try to come back. I had to do some serious begging with that Peter guy.” You say.

“Great.” He kisses you one last time and the speaks up. “Im spraying your perfume over my pillows and sheets, by the way.”

“Grand.” You tap his cheek. “I love you, Scott.”

“I love you more.” He says with a small frown and you leave to the car with his parents. He misses you already.

“Seriously, pick up a drug addition.” He groans and heads inside.

[ifyoucandaniel]

exactly one person asked and i’ve been DYING to make this, so here are all of my favorite long batman fanfics in general and for new readers @twisted-tales-told :)

cards on the table by @wesslan ! 69k, completed. this is one of my all time favorite fanfictions, it’s so funny and tim is a mastermind genius and a little liar <3 he basically pretends to be a fortune teller and gives scarily good predictions and advice by stalking the upper class and eventually gets involved with the batfam and has to maintain his lies while dealing with his issues :) 10/10, very found family, good angst, so much lying

Dark Matter by @mysterycyclone , 221k, ongoing. this is a batman fanfic rec, of course my bbg dark matter is going to be here <3 this is a MCUxDCU crossover where after infinity war (spoilers for that if you haven’t seen it!) peter parker gets sent to the DCU dimension with part of the soul stone and basically is haunted by the ghosts of the avengers while trying to survive in gotham and get back to his dimension. this is so well written i’ve read it at least three times, it’s still ongoing but trust me it is SO GOOD. i can’t properly describe it, but if you like spider-man and you are interested in batman, you’ll love.

Red is the Color of Sinners by @bluelotuswrites , series, 120k, ongoing, M. i want you to look me in my eyes when i tell you this is my favorite series on ao3. it is set after under the red hood and daredevil 3 where jason and matt meet in a church after jason loses his ability to speak following the events of UTRH. they keep running into each other both as matt and daredevil and eventually jason begins helping matt out with injuries and tech. it’s not finished yet, but there is something so compelling about their dynamic in this series as well as jason’s overall character and how he is portrayed. i’m a sucker for mute jason after UTRH and this series does so well giving him a fresh start and a place away from gotham to heal and build relationships. i cannot recommend enough.

buy back the secrets by @vinelark , 71k, ongoing, T. THIS!!! oh my god, so this is a timkon fic where kon still doesn’t know tim’s civilian identity, but whenever he’s in trouble tim calls for superboy which leads to them meeting without kon knowing. shenanigans ensure when kon starts spending more time with tim! it’s still ongoing but the author is currently working on the next part and it is so so worth the wait. chapter 4 ends on a cliffhanger though so be warned :))

Sales People Know (listening is the most important part) by Mayhem10, 77k, completed, T. this has the coolest urban magical realism ever. tim basically runs this magic shop that shows up places and people who need something find it in his shop :) it’s kinda a slow burn found family fic with magic themes and a smidge of angst!

Retrograde Motion by Lysical, 112k, completed, T. this is best de-aged kid fic ever. jason gets turned into a 7 year old and basically the outlaws, artemis and biz, join forces with the batfam to take care of him. but trust me when i say this is worth your time, it might sound tropey but in the best way possible!! and jason’s relationship with artemis is sooo important to me in this!

Hand in Unloveable Hand (a chokehold) by britishparty, 54k, completed, M. this is one of the best psychological torture/grooming fics i’ve ever read. pretty much what if while our taking photos of batman and robin, little tim gets kidnapped and black mask gets his hands on him and decides he’s the perfect size for a protege. years of psychological abuse and insane mind games ensue. also tim is a Badass™️

If He Had Come by bronwe_iris, 45k, completed, T. so i’m a little freak and i love the angst of arkham knight jason, but more specifically the aus where bruce saves jason before he becomes the arkham knight! this is an au where bruce finds jason and saves him from the joker after 9 months of torture and brings him home. focuses on his healing mentally and physically and rebuilding his relationship with his family

Banshee in a Well by liverobinreaction (bugbee), 43k, completed, T. veeeery good angst. basically what if tim couldn’t die? 43k of tim drake whump where he just dies a bajillion times and eventually his family notices <3

The Birds: Hatching a Family by Oceanera12, 81k, completed, T. this is like “what if the batkids weren’t adopted by bruce, but instead they were all foster siblings who can’t seem to stay out of gotham at night and batman happens to find them and decides obviously he can’t leave these kids to their own business, he has to stick his nose in it” and there’s some angst and heaps of found family

The Hellblazer’s Apprentice by @bluelotuswrites, 29k, ongoing, M. what can i say, im a simple woman, i love to see jason with literally any older male mentor :) basically in UTRH what if he took up an apprenticeship under constantine to learn magic to piss off batman! so good, i really love constantine so seeing him and jason interact in a long fic is so good. also ALL BLADES JASON TODD SAVE ME… ALL BLADES JASON TODD-

something in the static by bonerot19, 101k, ongoing series with three main completed works, T. this is a jason centric series where jason still lives in crime alley with his mom and dad and never stole the batmobile tires. it follows his life in crime alley with an addict mom and an abusive dad and one night when his dad is whaling on him nightwing finds him and the bats just can’t seem to leave him alone after that. steph is his neighbor and best friend also and their relationship is so good. this is a “what if jason took a different way home to the wayne’s” fic series and i love it so much <3

catch the asteroids that come your way by ThePackWantsTheD, 54k, completed, T. i don’t read a lot of ships in the batman fandom i’m sorry, but this kyle/jason one is sooo lovely. basically the two of them growing up together and falling in love and then dealing with the aftermath of A Death in the Family and finding each other again :) really sweet and nice!

hope you find something you like! i realized the majority of these are tim or jason centric, and i love them all dearly, but if anyone has any recs for long fics focusing on any of the other batkids lmk! and any other recs in general, i am a fiend for new fics

Jason Meets May Parker (AKA The Woman of His Dreams Because She Beat Up the Joker)

Jason Todd wasn’t a romantic.

He wasn’t the type to believe in love at first sight or fate or any of that Hallmark crap. (He may read romance books but that’s fiction therefore it has different rules so it doesn’t count!)

But standing in front of May Parker for the first time—the woman who had, without hesitation, beaten the absolute hell out of the Joker—he thought, Yeah, I’m in love.

He hadn’t planned to meet her like this.

After all, he had questions.

Who the hell was she? How did she take down the Joker with nothing but a baseball bat and sheer rage? Why did the kid she was protecting act like this was just another Tuesday?

So, naturally, he did what he did best.

He followed her.

Which, in hindsight, might not have been his best idea, because when she caught him lingering outside the library where she worked, she hit him in the chest with a hardcover book.

Hard.

May: “You gonna tell me why you’re lurking like a creep, or do I need to hit you again?”

Jason, stunned, looked down at the book she had just used as a blunt weapon.

Jason: “…Did you just hit me with ‘War and Peace’?”

May: “It was the closest thing I had. Want me to try ‘Moby Dick’ next?”

Jason, for reasons he couldn’t explain, grinned.

Jason: “Well I would appreciate it if you didn’t, you pack quite the heat.”

Jason didn’t lie that hit actually hurt which only made him more curious on just how strong she is.

May: “Well from what I’ve seen here in Gotham I think that’s a good thing?”

She smirked putting her hand on her hip.

Once Jason convinced her he wasn’t a threat (and after she made him hold out his hands so she could check them for clown makeup because she wouldn’t be surprised if The Joker sent people after her), May allowed him to sit with her inside the library.

She watched him warily over the rim of her coffee cup, the same way one might watch a stray dog that had wandered in off the street—curious, but not quite trusting.

Jason, on the other hand, was watching her.

Because she was different.

She wasn’t scared of him. Wasn’t intimidated by the leather jacket, the scars, the general air of menace that usually made people keep their distance.

No.

She just looked… tired.

Tired, but not weak.

And damn if that didn’t make his brain short-circuit a little. He had only planned to feel her out. Figure out what kind of person she was.

But then (the boy who was kidnapped,) Peter ran up to her, tugging at her sleeve.

Peter: “Aunt May! I finished my book! Can I get another one?”

May smiled, ruffling the kid’s hair in a way that spoke of effortless familiarity.

May: “Sure thing, sweetheart. You want another science book?”

Peter: “Mmhmm! I wanna learn about quantum physics!”

Jason blinked.

Jason: “…You’re like, five?”

Peter (scowling): “I’m sevente—!”

May m: “Careful. He’ll start monologuing about multiversal theory if you’re not careful.”

May cut Peter off handing him a book and smoothing down his curls.

And that was it.

That was the moment Jason knew he was completely and utterly screwed.

Because the kid was hilarious, and May Parker was somehow both the most terrifying and most comforting person he had ever met.

And Jason Todd?

Well.

Jason Todd had always had a thing for dangerous women with big hearts. He didn’t say it aloud, but he knew then and there that he wasn’t going anywhere.

Not just because May had wrecked the Joker like it was personal (which by the way he sees how much she loves the kid it’s unsurprising).

Not just because Peter was the most sarcastic seven-year-old he had ever met (at least he’s not trying to stab him like Damian would).

But because she reminded him of the kind of person he wished he had when he was a kid.

Fierce. Protective.

Unyielding in the face of cruelty.

And even if she didn’t know it yet, she had just gained an unofficial bodyguard in him.

Because Jason Todd wasn’t about to let someone like her face Gotham alone.

Not now.

Not ever.

Masterlist

I came up with this AU a while back - probably a few months after I stumbled into this fandom - and it's been bouncing around in my head for a while. (Excuse the scatterbrained nature of this post, I'm just writing my thoughts as they come)

Tim Drake meets Peter Pan (OUAT edition)

I mean, he's the perfect candidate for a lost boy. Neglected, lonely and will probably become scarily loyal to the first person who offers him a way out of that. Not to mention, he's smart, has loose morals (I mean, he did stalk and blackmail Batman) and can be a little ruthless at times, he'd be Peter's right hand man in no time.

So, he lives as a lost boy for a while, but finds Peter's ways of doing things too dark or cruel and, being the baby genius he is, escaped from Neverland, back to Gotham.

But also, we could combine this concept with the Tim joins the family early trope. Like, he goes to Neverland a couple of times, but also starts connecting with the Waynes, so that could be part of the reason he's able to let go of that loyalty to Peter, because he's got something better waiting for him. He never tells the Wayne's about his time in Neverland, worrying that they'll see him differently due to the morally grey things he did there as Peter's right hand man. Tim deals with quite a bit of imposter syndrome and insecurity, but ultimately, he's more happy than not.

Then, a few years later, Damian comes in and is all, well, Damian about things which makes things take a bad turn for Tim. The family is bad at balance/communication and Tim "Abandonment Issues" Drake is a very unreliable narrator at times, so it's angst galore. Then Peter turns up again.

Tim goes with him to Neverland, this time with the intention of staying forever.

Or, we could go another route and look into Damian, a kid whose whole life had been uprooted as he's sent to live with a father he's never met and with a family with vastly different dynamics to what he's used to. He's not neglected, but he's certainly lonely. Especially when being held up to expectations and moral standards that he finds impossible to comprehend after being raised by Talia and Ra's.

So Peter comes back, but he takes Damian instead, as a way to lure Tim back to Neverland. And, even if he doesn't like Damian much right now, of course Tim will go after him because that's his little brother and no way in hell is he letting Peter take him.

We could even sprinkle in a little backstory about Peter knowing Bruce from when Bruce was a kid, after his parents died. Now, two of Bruce's sons are missing and he has to find a way to Neverland.

That's where Jason comes in. Jason Todd, the ultimate lost boy who never was. Not for lack of trying. Peter's shadow swooped down to get him when he was living on the streets, but Jay isn't some naive kid, he's a Gothamite, a Crime Alley kid and he knows that if someone - even that someone is a creepy shadow person - grabs you and tries to get you to a secondary location, you fucking fight it with all you have. So, Jason never makes it to Neverland. Instead, he fights so hard that the shadow drops him, right onto Captain Hook - Killian Jones' - ship. They bond, Killian teaches Jason the ropes, but Jason ultimately decides to go back to Gotham for whatever reason (maybe Killian messes up or Jason's trust issues get the better of him) and he leaves.

We could also play around with parallels between Bruce and Peter. Both taking in lost, lonely kids that no one else wants, having them fight battles, Peter could even hit Bruce with that 'at least my boys will never die' as if forcing them to live forever in eternal stagnation is so much better.

While in Neverland together, Tim and Damian start to bond over their feelings of never truly belonging anywhere. That they'll be forever defined by what they did over who they are. As they grow closer, Tim reassures Damian that he will always belong with him, to give him the chance to prove it.

Meanwhile, Bruce, Dick and Jason are on their way to Neverland. And Peter is ready to start playing the game.

... And that's all I've got so far.

Dp x Spiderman x DC prompt

"Danny Phantom and Peter Parker Aka Spiderman are sent to the DC universe and they will make that everyone's problem."

For whatever reason, whether to protect him, because he loves chaos, or just because he was bored, Clockwork sends Danny to another universe even if Danny doesn't agree with it. Anyway, now Danny is stuck in the DC universe, and he's drawn to a city dripping with ectoplasm and crime, and looking for a way to get home or whatever Clockwork wants him to do, Danny heads to Gotham City.

At the same time in another universe, as a last resort and to protect his universe and his loved ones, Spider-Man, Peter Parker is erased from everyone's minds and his world, so he is sent as a last act of kindness and gratitud from Doctor Strange to another universe so he can start over. So Peter awakes in another universe and new world, one where super heroes exist but no person he knows has ever existed and where there are no records of his own existence, and to make matters worse, he's 14 now and he's in a city infested with criminals, villains and pollution. Seriously, not even New York is this bad.

Looking around for how to survive, a place to stay and how to get home, Peter's spider sense alerts him of a powerful presence approaching, and Danny flying through the city while invisible is paralyzed in mid-air when a boy wearing a suit under an oversized coat looks directly at him, as if he could really know he's there, and after hesitating for a couple of seconds he becomes tangible and the other boy's eyes widen comically in surprise, and they both take a defensive stance. They have a staring standoff for a couple of minutes in which they determine whether or not the other is a threat, and when that is resolved, Danny and Peter meet. Quickly after an exchange of information, they discover that they have a lot in common, they're both young heroes, with more responsibilities and power than they could ever expect, underestimated and misunderstood teenagers, geeks, with a similar humor, show true interest in each other's tastes, and are stuck in another universe with no way to return home, oh and they share the same principles and morals, so naturally they become best friends and decide to survive together.

Danny really likes Peter Aka Spiderman, it's the first time he's met someone in his age range who really understands what he's going through. But that's not just why he likes him, Peter is funny, smart, kind, sweet and genuinely a good person, and a kid, one who in his short years of life has already been through too much, (they did trauma dump on each other) and Danny and his ever-evolving ghost core who is now obsessed with protecting children, wants Peter safe and happy, and by their side, so considering that Peter's universe and the people in it no longer existe for him, they both emerge with a plan, they are going to stay together in this universe for now and then find a way to leave together to Danny's universe, and for that they come up with the idea of ​​building a portal. They trust that they can do it, they're smart and have enough knowledge to maybe and by putting both brains together, they can decipher travel between universes, or at least to the ghost zone. But for that they need equipment, tools, materials and a safe place to stay and be able to start working, and with an established plan, their journey begins.

They find an old building, house, warehouse (it doesn't really matter) and they take it as their new home, and it's perfect, it's in fairly good shape, it's safe and secluded enough that no one will bother them while they work, it's away from most of the criminal gangs, gang territories, and off the territory and radar of the local vigilantes, vigilantes that Danny and Peter were quickly aware of dominate the streets of Gotham, and don't accept people with superhuman abilities on them. They still have to go out into the streets to get supplies and materials to build the portal, and because being two young superheroes they can't help but fight crime for a long time, and in fact they make a good team. Who would think their skills would work so well combined? (I did. I actually thought about it quite a bit, and I could have a whole conversation on this topic alone.)

There are two new vigilantes in Gotham and they are metas, that's what everyone talks about in the streets, and it's what the bats and birds have seen, and they are concern. These meta vigilantes don't seem remotely affected by Batman's rule of no metas in Gotham, but that's not what's relevant to the Bat and the Bat Kids, it's how young they are, not much older than Damian or Tim, with flashy uniforms and even flashier powers, if not dangerous, they're reckless, and their origins and reasons for being in Gotham are unknown. They know that they must approach this situation delicately, if they don't want it to get out of hand. And since they are in the streets and seem friendly, the bats try to get closer and get information, they try on different occasions and with different methods, but they don't obtain great results from any of the encounters. If the new young vigilantes don't escape and disappear completely just by noticing the presence of the bats or birds (they always know where they are no matter who or how stealthy they are), they respond with jokes or sarcastic comments to any question, sometimes insults if they are not in the mood for an interrogation, they never fight or attack but they refuse to have a relationship with the local Gotham vigilantes, and after two months of this all they know is that the one in red and blue is Spiderman and the one in black and white is Phantom, and that's driving them all crazy, especially when in the few times they've faced them (they tried to capture one of them, it doesn't matter who, it's not a good idea) they have shown that they know how to defend themselves and that their abilities should not be underestimated, and if you try to go after one of them, the other will go against you with everything he has (I like to think that Peter and Danny would be overprotective of each other since they are the only thing the other one have in that universe and they are not going to lose their best friend if they can help it). The bats learned this the hard way and now know what to expect from each one of them. At the moment, the one who has shown that he could have the best chance of being a real threat in the future is Phantom, who managed to give a good scare to Nighwing and Red Hood and everyone who was around to witness it when the vigilantes were very close to capturing Spiderman, but as long as you don't touch his friend he's harmless (although there are suspicions that Phantom fell into the Lazarus pit, a classic), but Batman learned that if you try to hurt or capture Phantom, Spiderman will have no problem crushing you and breaking your ribs, again (first time was an accident, Peter felt really bad about it), he just didn't do it a second time because Robin was present and stopped himself so the little kid vigilante wouldn't be scared of him, so Batman knew from experience, although less scary and calm than Phantom, Spiderman is a time bomb and it's better not to give him reasons to explode.

So the bats keep their distance, as long as the new vigilantes don't hurt anyone or commit any crimes they decide that they can coexist in Gotham peacefully, and maybe collaborate if the opportunity arises and they need extra help. But then things start disappearing from Wayne Enterprises and some hospitals, and blackouts are reported, and strong shocks of static energy shake the city (Danny and Peter have begun their research and experimenting with the new technology they have in this universe, they're doing their best). None of Gotham's villains or criminals are responsible, so the main suspects soon become the new and enigmatic vigilantes. Now the real game begins, imagine the efforts the Batfamily would go to to obtain information and slowly gain the trust of Danny and Peter, all the interesting situations and interactions we could get out of this, I don't know, I think we could get at least 6 different stories out of this idea with all the juicy stuff a crossover likes this can offer.

Out of curiosity, are you planning on making the Catwoman au a real fic or is it just a brain child at the moment?

both! i actually have a growing list of different aus i want to write for Peter Parker in Gotham fics:

as well as a BUNCH of regular Batfam au fics sitting in my drafts. i've also been writing drabbles for one shot ideas for LoF, like the one where Peter gets deaged, and another where Peter and Dami get sent back in time to when Jason was Robin

i've been making outlines for a couple of the aus on this list, but i might make a poll soon to see what the order i start working on them should be. so far, i'm thinking Catwoman would win, and Psych would be in 2nd place, since they're referenced the most often. that's why Catwoman and Psych have vague outlines right now, so I know more about what will and won't happen

(and tbh... more aus might get added... i can't stop thinking of them)

[wukongfeetpics]

one of those 'peter in gotham' aus except lex fucking luthor is the one that finds him. Can you imagine the shenanigans. peter accidentally goes through a portal and lands in the outskirts of metropolis where luthor just so happens to have a factory doing Something. and luthors employees find him and go to luthor like Hey boss,, Umm. theres a teenager in the grass. luthors like, what happened? cue the factory workers going i dont know! the kid jsut fell out of this weird portal thing! and hes like,,, Hm.

superman definitely should be relevant but i still want the batfamily to meet peter. can you imagine that luthors kryptonite reserves were discovered and confiscated. and theres some discovered in gotham, whether it be naturally discovered there or someones like, selling it? and so thats how peter gets sent to gotham? although i cant see luthor letting him loose on the big wide world without some insurance, because hes definitely obscuring some of the facts from peter in order to manipulate him.

hmmm maybe luthor traps peter in a deal that peter cant easily get out of (at the cost of his or someone elses safety) so that even when peter Does discover how bad luthor is, he cant just bail out. idk i just think its very funny how every single person peter is vaguely acquainted with turns out to be a supervillain. or somehow personally wronged by him. and i think that should extend beyond universes.

Okay so I have a couple AUs I wanna explore but I do not have the energy to.

Circus Freak Peter Parker AU

Peter Parker goes to Gotham and has a run in with the bats. Through a large series of misunderstandings they think he was someone sold to the circus as some sort of attraction. Peter decides to lean into this idea. Bonus points if Dick Grayson and Richard Parker are the same person too!

Sibling Swap AU

Essentially Jazz and Damian swap places. Through a series of events Jazz ends up adopted by the Fenton’s. Then through another series of events (bad reveal, GIW intervention, or dead Fenton parents.) Jazz is forced to seek out her biological father for help. Family shenanigans ensue!

Scarlet Spider AU

Wanda and Peter Parker accidentally get sent to Gotham and end up getting de aged. Wanda is incredibly depressed so is Peter but they stick to together and navigate this world together.

Emotional support Loki AU

More Peter in Gotham except this time Loki gets thrown into the mix and essentially becomes an emotional support snake for Peter.

The Time BS Trio AU

Essentially Peter Parker, Marinette Dupain Cheng, and Danny Fenton all get stranded in Gotham for various reasons. They end up grouping up together to get through the BS that their Timey Wimey friends put them through.

That’s all I have so far…. Have fun!
