My Top Ten JayDick Fics
So I’ve always wanted to do a rec list to give people a good starting point for jaydick fics. I know from personal experience that a good fic is hard to find, especially where jaydick is concerned. I won’t be posting any of my fics on here, but in case anyone’s curious my ao3 is Sam4265. A personal favorite of mine is Red Hood Wears Magnums, which is a short one if anyone wants to read it.
So here are my top 10 favorite jaydick fics, in no particular order, because I have a terrible time making decisions.
Control(led) Issues by strikeyourcolors
All entries rated E - 75,586 words total - 10 works - Incomplete Series
This is a really good series. Tragic, and the relationship is rough, but it’s a good one. The earlier entries are mostly sex, but the later ones have some very interesting and tragic plot.
Another Perfect Catastrophe by Mikimoo and Pentapus
E - 20,164 words
This is just absolutely spectacular, and I’ve read it several times.
“Dick goes undercover as himself in order to catch a gang of international thieves. Jason reluctantly tags along as his long suffering bodyguard. During the ensuing mayhem they get to know each other again and build a few bridges.”
I Think I Wanna Marry You by dinolaur
T - 3,968 words
Just a cute short one that I always reread when I see it. Jason and Dick get Vegas married.
“A night out for drinks and a certain Bruno Mars song land Dick and Jason in an interesting predicament. Guess it’s as good a time as any to come out to the family.”
Don’t Forget the Milk by byeke
G - 1,230
So gut-wrenching and heartwarming at the same time, ugh.
“After a fight Jason decides to pack up his things, and a few of Dick's things too, and leave. Dick catches him in the act of packing up and leaving without saying anything. Jason jumps to defend himself and before he can stop himself, he blurts out ‘We're out of milk.’”
This Is Not In My Job Description by Chrystie and kate882
T - 9,720 words
I love a good Nurse!Jason fic, which this, of course, is.
“‘I’m not even obligated to help you, I hope you know that. I work with kids not superheros,’ Jason muttered as he hauled Nightwing up to his feet and wrapped an arm around him to start half dragging him towards his own apartment, trying to apply pressure to the wound to slow down the bleeding as they walked.
Nightwing, who appeared to be struggling to hold his head up, looked like he was assessing Jason for all Jason could tell with the mask on. ‘Are all angels as hot and grumpy as you?’ So maybe he wasn’t lucid enough for any assessing.”
We Will Wear Our Masks Again Out After Dark by IMightwing
E - 20,647 words
This is a great fic written for the 2017 Reverse Bang.
“Dick paused and looked straight at Jason. ‘I want you to be Batman until I’m healed.’
‘No,’ Jason said. No way in hell, he wanted to say, but the quicker he got this over with, the better.”
Throw Me in the Water (Don't Think About the Splash I Will Create) by overratedantihero
T - 1,359 words
This is a new short fic, but I absolutely love it. It’s a merman!Dick fic with a really great ending.
“’You can’t keep him,’ Bruce said, crossing his arms to emphasize the finality of his statement. But Jason always did have a habit of taking what he wanted.”
Take the Heat Out of Me by quipquipquip
E - 81,034 words
This is sort of the classic jaydick fic. I feel like it’s a right of passage for jaydick fans to read this one. It’s really very good.
“Lost Days!Jason trolls Officer Grayson!Dick in Blüdhaven. Dick counter-trolls with the power of love. (It's super effective.)”
Do What You Like (Just Don’t Do It Here) by DevilDoll
T - 1,334 words
Another short fic, but it just melts my heart in every way, and has a nice side of Bruce/Selina.
“’Dick and Jason are having sex.’”
The Weight of a Choice by Skalidra
T - 5,053 words
This one is just so great, Jason’s character in this is amazingly perfect.
“In the middle of a fight, a building collapses on top of Dick and Jason. They're trapped, Dick might be injured, and Jason definitely is. All they can do is wait to be rescued, but there's just one problem. Jason's the one holding the rubble up, and his strength isn't going to last for long.”
----
This fic isn’t part of the official rec list because the main pairing is superbat, but it has a really fantastic and lengthy jaydick side plot. The jaydick starts in the second fic, and there’s also some Tim/Kon in the later fics.
It’s an exceptionally well written series for one so long, and it’s very dramatic and enthralling. I read the whole thing one after the other because I practically couldn’t put them down.
DC Omegaverse by Evilpixie
All entries rated E - 453,921 words total - 5 works+index - Completed Series
Wherein Bruce is an omega and Clark an alpha.

Swimming Up High (Flying Down Low) by geckoholic
Explicit | Sex, Masturbation, Voyeurism, Exhibitionism
Dick's cheeks flush with... he's not sure. There was no alcohol to cloud either of their memory and he remembers every dirty, debauched thing they did last night. And yet there's something indecent about watching this, now, like he's catching Jason in an intimate moment that he wasn't given permission to see.
ghosts and gods by perissologist
Teen | Paranormal stuff, Getting together
If Jason is a ghost, then Dick is a supernatural force all his own, one that tears worlds apart in search of better ones.
---
As a side effect of coming back from the dead, Jason is a bona fide paranormal phenomenon. Dick seems to be a little too caught up in mooning after him to notice. Their siblings aren't amused.
(Or, Jason is a supernatural presence after his resurrection, but the poor fool in love with him thinks the freaky feelings are just the butterflies in his stomach.)

Two Dicks, no waiting, and it'd be funny if Jason wasn't so turned on he can't think straight.

Fathers, Be Good by ariadne83, somehowunbroken

What is there for Dick to do but drop everything and run to help his long-lost brother?

Teen | Immortality, Flirting
Jason's fifteen when he dies for the first time. He's eighteen when he comes back to Gotham for vengeance, and dies again. But for some reason that second death doesn't last any more than the first one did, and Jason comes to the realization that something, somewhere, is keeping him alive.
Calendar Boy by empires
Mature | No cape AU, Friendly rivalry, Getting together
prompt: Non tragic no cape AU where Jason's a sexy fireman and Dick's a sexy police officer. Bonus +1: policemen's ball. Bonus +2: firemen's calendar. JayDick?
All the Way (Like a Good Boy) by TimmyJaybird
Explicit | Sex, JayRoy, Phonesex, Threesome-ish
Jason is drunk. He's drunk and on Dick's couch and suddenly faced with an age-old crush that never exactly died. Except he's with Roy now- but Dick is fairly sure all can be fixed with a quick phone call.
Melt Me Down by Skalidra
Explicit | Sex, Marathon sex, Established relationship
Sometimes, Dick gets in moods. Jason's never been able to figure out exactly what the moods stem from, despite their years together, but he always finds himself caught up in the flow of them anyway. But of all the things that Dick could be doing in these moods, this is definitely a good one.
into you by perissologist
Not Rated | Dance AU
“You think it’s really Nightwing?” Kyle asks, gaze searching ahead in the herd. “Here, in Gotham?”
“It’s possible, I guess,” Jason says. “He goes everywhere, doesn’t he?”
“C’mon, what’re we waiting for?” Duke is already pushing forward, eyes glittering in excitement. “Man, how crazy would it be if it is him? Dude’s a legend. I’ve been hoping he’d come to Gotham since that one video of him dancing to Tupac on the Eiffel Tower.”
---
The Outlaws are the best underground hip-hop crew in Gotham--until the anonymous international sensation Nightwing crashes onto the scene.
A Hot Mess by Skalidra
Teen | College AU, Roommates, Getting together
Jason's roommate at his college, one Dick Grayson, is both a blessing and a curse. Hot as sin but messy as hell, and completely oblivious to both things. Even when he brings up the mess part of it, it doesn't get much better (although Dick is trying). So, they enact a system. Cleaning, in exchange for 'favors.'
I'm Just A Problem That Doesn't Wanna Be Solved by geckoholic
Mature | Sex, Sex pollen, Angst, Pining
The agreement, as it stands, is a couple months old. Back around New Years, they had to deliver Bats to Catwoman's doorstep in a last ditch attempt after the chemical route didn't take. It was awkward for everyone and, from what Jason heard, had served to curtail eye contact in the manor to a minimum for a few days. He and Dick had a conversation about it a couple weeks later, and really, this kinda shit happens to them often enough that certain... contingency plans seemed like a good idea.
knocked me off the ground by Windmire
Not Rated | No cape AU, KoriDonna, StephCass, Getting together
"It's Jason Todd you'd be working with. You remember Jason, right?"
"He's probably hoping you remember him."
For his best friend's wedding, Dick's more than willing to double as best man and co-wedding planner, even if it means going back to the city he's been avoiding for years on end. Then he meets the other best man and co-wedding planner and falling so hard and so fast was so not part of the plan.
Baby Let's Forget the Morning by MissNaya
Explicit | Sex, Incest play, Dirty talk
Jason wonders what Dick thinks of him: is he a brother, a friend, something else entirely? He gets answers, but not in the way he pictured.
deafening perceptions you have of me by thanatopis
Teen | Angst, Mutual pining, Getting together
Dick and Jason keep dancing around each other, never quite giving in or giving too much, and Dick is tired.
came down easy spinning threads to the throne by pissvinegarandacrowbar
Mature | Sex, Fluff, Prescribed drugs, Established relationship
Red Hood took a bullet for Nightwing. Dick is grateful, he really is. But now he has to deal with a drugged-up Jason Todd.
Run and I will Chase You by Gravity_Sun
Teen | First kiss, Pining
Day 1 - First Kiss
Or
The three times it didn't count, and the one time it did.
Cabin Fever by Skalidra
Explicit | Sex, Established relationship, Injury
In one random fight, Dick takes a badly angled shot to the knee that puts him out of commission. As his partner, and the one living with him, it's Jason's job to keep Dick off his feet until he heals. Not an easy job, not with Dick's resistance to ever staying still, but he has to do it. At least there's one way that he knows for sure can bleed out some of Dick's extra energy.
Dad!Jason AU by fishfingersandjellybabies
Gen-Mature | Baby Damian, Talon!Dick, Hurt/comfort, Getting together
In which Jason is resurrected and found that Talia had a baby with the Batman. To protect Damian from Bruce and Talia's battles, he gives up on his plan of revenge and instead secretly takes the child to Gotham to raise as his own.
But then Dick finds them both, and all bets are off.
My Downfall is Rooted in Your Desperate Need by victoriousscarf
Explicit | Sex, Temporary character death, Rape discussion, Angst, Getting together
Dick isn't Orpheus and he can't play a lyre. But that's okay because the analogy falls apart the longer you look at it.
He's just not going to let Jason stay dead a second time.
Pop Psychology by perissologist
Mature | Sex, Angst, Injury, Getting together
Stupid broken boys in love.
we will wear our masks again out after dark by IMightwing
Explicit | Sex, Batman!Jason, Injury, Hurt/comfort, Getting together
Dick paused and looked straight at Jason. “I want you to be Batman until I’m healed.”
“No,” Jason said. No way in hell, he wanted to say, but the quicker he got this over with, the better.
Written for the Batfam Reverse Big Bang 2017.
Another Perfect Catastrophe by Mikimoo
Explicit | Sex, Undercover, Non-consensual drug use, Non-consensual kissing

Indulgence by MissNaya

Trophy Wife by Volavi
Teen | Fluff, Established relationship
A casual remark from Roy forces Jason to re-evaluate his understanding of his relationship with Dick and his self-identity. Jason can't possibly be the trophy wife, can he? Dick helpfully sets Jason straight. Well, not exactly.
Miniature Bridges by Gravity_Sun
Explicit | Sex, Angst, Pining
Day 3: First Time Realizing They’re In Love
Or
It's just sex, until it isn't.
Dick's Dick by MissNaya

Jason gets Dick a gag gift for Christmas. Neither of them expect him to end up liking it so much.
Through the Wire by pissvinegarandacrowbar
Explicit | Sex, Tattoos, Body image, Getting together
…to your door, to your door.
When Jason finally works up the courage to get a tattoo he's wanted for years, he attempts to send a picture of it to Roy, who is out of Gotham on an emergency mission. Turns out, Harper and Grayson are awfully close together in his contact list.
Exeunt'verse by elwon
Explicit | Sex, Getting together, Coming out
JayDick character studies. A pre-nu52 AU, set after Damian arrived in Gotham, but wherein Bruce never 'died' and therefore Battle of the Cowl didn't happen.
—————
DAMITIM
For a Change by MissNaya
Explicit | Sex, Oral sex, Dom/sub, Dirty talk
Tim notices everything, whether he wants to or not. He knows by the clothes Dick wears whether he’s on-again or off-again with Barbara (tight pants and polo shirts mean on-again). He remembers how many bullets Jason has left even when Jason himself forgets. And he knows that Damian has been jerking off to the thought of him for at least several weeks.
Things Have a Way by cadkitten
Explicit | Sex, Masturbation, Scent kink, Frottage
Tim gets mugged in his civilian identity. Damian comes to pick up the pieces.
Hoodwing’d by somehowunbroken
Mature | JayDick, Fake relationship, Or is it?, Accidental relationship
Dick and Jason seem to think it’s hilarious to make out where Tim and Damian are going to walk in on them. Naturally, Tim and Damian take revenge.
Taste the Green by Salmon_Pink
Explicit | Sex, Costume kink, Blowjob
Damian is wearing the original Robin uniform. Tim doesn’t think he can be blamed if he loses his mind a little.
Show Me the Meaning (Of Being Lonely) by TimmyJaybird
Explicit | Sex, One-sided TimJay, One-sided DamiDick, JayDick, Heartbreak, Rebound sex, Accidental relationship
It started with a drunken need for comfort- when Tim and Damian were broken at what felt like their worst. But what was reflex, could have been called an accident, turned into the exact thing they both never knew they truly needed.
Involuntary Ties by TimmyJaybird
Explicit | Sex, FtM Tim, PiV sex
Tim invites Damian to crash on his couch for the night, and quickly expects their night to go to nothing but bickering. Good thing that Damian is weak and pretty, and Tim doesn’t mind either.
Backwards by shadeblue
Mature | Sex, Hate sex, Or is it?
He doesn’t even like Tim. Tim doesn’t even like him.
My True Love Gave To Me by fishfingersandjellybabies
General Audiences | Crush, Superbat, Clark is a bro
In which Damian has a crush and has no idea what to do about it.
A Day of Rest by MarbleAide
Explicit | Sex, Dom/sub, Bondage, Sex toys
Tim works too hard, but Damian has his own way to make him stop and get his head cleared up.
Give by cadkitten
Explicit | Sex, Breathplay, Dom/sub
“Give.” The crack of Damian’s voice was like a whip, right next to Tim’s ear, and God that did things it shouldn’t have.
you don’t have to say i love you (to say i love you) by akaparalian
General Audiences | No cape AU, College AU
It is 7:46 AM on Wednesday, and Damian very carefully sits down in his seat (front row, just to the right of the podium), every fibre of his being aware that Drake is sitting two seats away. This is – surely this is statistically significant. From five seats away to two, all at once – and after the coffee, and –
lit!verse: anachronism by heartslogos
Teen | Major character death, Resurrection, Damian pls
Damian’s face softens as he reaches out, fingers brushing the unconscious face, “You were my father’s Robin, and for a time, Richard’s, perhaps… you could be my Robin as well.”
Join Me When You’re Free by Skalidra
Explicit | Sex, Established relationship, Bondage, Sexual experimentation
Damian and Tim have been together for years, and sometimes, Damian likes to try new things. Usually Tim can see them coming a mile away, or at least know when Damian’s got something on his mind, but this time he’s caught a little off guard. (Which does not at all mean that he’s not interested.)
Plan Awry by DustToDust
Teen | Unrequited love, Or is it?
Damian had a plan. For what only became clear after it’d all gone wrong.

Do you have a list of all time fav? Like some certain fics you always go back to all the time and can't let go?
There are some faves! There are actually 2 of us on this blog (I got help guys it’s so exciting!) so I’ll put the recs from each of us & try to indicate whose is whose? And maybe eventually we’ll introduce ourselves? (Sorry all of mine have been recommended already)
You could also ask me my fave fics tomorrow and they’d probably change and I’m pretty sure that’s true for both of us.
Cat’s Faves
Thief!Dick Verse by JayDick_Hell
Dick Grayson’s life ended the night he witnessed his parents fall in the Big Top. He raised himself on the streets and learned to hone his various talents to grow into the talented and notorious thief known as Robin. One day, he finds himself in Blüdhaven, sizing up a place when he’s interrupted by the Red Hood.
Jason Todd finally branched out from the shadow of the Bat, ready to be his own hero. He just decided ‘Haven would be his Gotham when he came across a handsome stranger clearly up to no good. Naturally, he had to put a stop to the criminal. He never expected to get addicted to the wily thief.
For what it’s worth: So good. Very cute series, I love it so much.
Bite Me to the Bone by elwon
After six months walking around with a beating heart, Dick wishes he could use the speed, strength and abilities he’s used to. Because he’s still a soulless demon deep down. Being able to walk in the daylight and eat pizza do not make up for this utter humiliation and punishment. But then the Red Hood appears, and things start to look up.
For what it’s worth: So good. Just. amazingly fantastic. Side note on this one: I actually told my mom how obsessed I was with this fic within 10 minutes of finishing it.
Fumes of our love by moonfox281
Behind every successful man, there is a woman… No, no it’s not! It’s 2016 for God’s sake. You can’t assume anybody’s gender.It must change to 'Behind every successful husband, there is a wife.’ Cause wife is just a title, not a gender, and, yeah, let admit it, there are a wife and husband in every relationship.Things are the same, just a lot stranger when you’re a powerful mob boss, and your other half is a hot ass super-hero.
For what it’s worth: I think the coolest way to approach their relationship is when you’re looking at Jason being a crime lord vs Dick being a vigilante and this fic does it perfectly.
Another Perfect Catastrophe by Mikimoo, pentapus (Artwork here)
Dick goes undercover as himself in order to catch a gang of international thieves. Jason reluctantly tags along as his long suffering bodyguard. During the ensuing mayhem they get to know each other again and build a few bridges.
For what it’s worth: they have to work together to take down crime while undercover??? sign me up. very very good & bonus: art!! the best.
Jellzu’s Faves
knocked me off the ground byWindmire
“It’s Jason Todd you’d be working with. You remember Jason, right?”
“He’s probably hoping you remember him.”
For his best friend’s wedding, Dick’s more than willing to double as best man and co-wedding planner, even if it means going back to the city he’s been avoiding for years on end. Then he meets the other best man and co-wedding planner and falling so hard and so fast was so not part of the plan.
For what it’s worth: This had me cackling. Dick sees a hot guy, has to work with hot guy for best friends wedding. Oh and, apparently he knows this hot guy but doesn’t remember and said guy sure does remember him? Well then, let the awkwardness ensue.
Two Worlds byxserenity
Dick thought it was just a dream, a weird dream but apparently it wasn’t. He found himself stuck in a reality where he wasn’t dating Jason Todd. Instead, he was dating some girl he didn’t know.
And he hated the fact.
For what it’s worth: I always love the fics where either Dick or Jason are transported to another universe where they aren’t dating each other. It’s angst and fluff mixed together but at the same time, amusing because then they always try to get their counterparts to date. Ah, my heart.
we will wear our masks again out after dark byIMightwing
Dick paused and looked straight at Jason. “I want you to be Batman until I’m healed.”
“No,” Jason said. No way in hell, he wanted to say, but the quicker he got this over with, the better.
For what it’s worth: A theory: Jason will do what Dick asks of him just because of the fact that _Dick is asking him to do him a favor_. He didn’t plan it, but here he is, in the batcave, covering for Dick Grayson… Great.
Hurricane bykeykiyoshi7443
The high school AU where Jason and Dick star in a musical that no one really wanted.
For what it’s worth: No matter what, high school AUs are one of the best. Especially when it has Jason doing the cellblock tango. This needs to be an animatic. (That may or may not be in the works. i just can’t help myself) But IT’S THE CELLLBLOCK TANGO. Come on people, it’s pure.
