Based off the amazing comic by the same name. I'd recommend reading it before you read this, as I'm not sure how much justice I do for it. I just found myself sensing underlying motives and hidden meanings that weren't clearly represented, and the third person limited POV left me feeling like something was missing. So I've taken it upon myself to rewrite this story from multiple first person POVs (Primarily Babs, secondarily Dick, and others).
Follow Barbara Gordon, freshly out of college, as she begins her long and entirely unexpected journey to becoming the vigilante known as Batgirl. (and what it looks like from others' perspective!) Being the fangirl I am, there's a very romance-heavy subplot between Dick and Babs, and it's... well, you'll see.
This is my first fic, constructive criticism and ideas are more than welcome! Please tell me what you think. (whether I finish this or not is going to depend upon feedback, as I tend to lose motivation unless I have people relying on me. So if you like it, please let me know and I will definitely continue!) I apologize for any errors or OOC-ness.
Obviously I do not own the characters, universe, or even the plot to the story, I just tweaked a few things here and there. All of that belongs to DC comics.

A JayDick romantic comedy ficlet. ______________________________________________ •Written November 2020• [Complete, 14k words] The idea for this fic was inspired by some lovely fan art by @pentapoda on Tumblr, which is linked under 'External Link' at the bottom of the first chapter (desktop only).

Belong Here With Us (Wayne Family Adventures Fan-Fiction)
"That name's familiar, right, Mr. Wayne?" Gotham's vigilantes find a mysterious young woman. Unharmed but shaken. No reason for being there. No origin or trace. She drops a bombshell; she knows Batman's identity and she's just outraced death. Her refusal to trust the Batfamily and connection to a man, whose very moniker spells danger, brings tension. Walls must crumble for her old self to emerge from memories of demons-past and present-that even she's reluctant to acknowledge. She may also just be a kindred spirit; damaged. Love, family, loss-and romance-are universal. Mourning alone, far from home, is where no one deserves to be. What chased her to them? Unimaginable worlds exist outside your comfortable cities or worst nightmares... Once reached: (not important but tons of other stories do it) #1 in Batman #1 in Crime Syndicate #8 in PTSD #1 in Spoiler #1 in Oracle #3 in Justice League #4 in Alfred Pennyworth First draft.

JayDick: The Return
Disclaimer: This is an AU! This is not following all canon backstorys some stick to canon and others don't. This is also a sequel, so I suggest reading the first book. "You're apart of me. There's no me without you... You're my better half." ~ Words spoken so dearly to just a picture frame, the night Jason had lost the love of his life. Or so he thought... ~ "I'll return, and when I do, I'm gonna marry you." ~ Words Dick held onto for over a year would he be able to go through with that or would Jason be too upset to forgive him? ~ Love can be a difficult thing. Sometimes you can leave without telling and when you come back, you come back to open arms. But sometimes you can come back and be thrown to the side,neglected, forgotten, disposable. ~ Dick was going to return, but will things go back to the way he predicted or will his love and life crumble before him? ~ Book 2 of the JayDick series Written by yours truly☺Complete

A New Love (Bruce Wayne (Batman) x reader)
You're a doctor from one of the small hospitals in Gotham. You have a gift called eidetic memory (means you remember everything from what you see to what you read) and have good fighting skills in order to defend yourself due to the high rates of crime in Gotham. You use your good memory by studying all areas of medicine and use it to help people that don't have enough money to pay specialists. Bruce Wayne knows of you but you don't know him till he talks to you in one of his charity events. I started writing my first fanfic story because I read a lot of fan fiction were the reader is "batmom" usually the storyline is about how she was this amazing hero who fights with the batfamily. Of course different artists have their own unique batmom. But somehow all of the batmoms that I have read didn't really have what I wanted so it just inspired me to write my own batmom. Hope you enjoy my story.Complete
Redwing (Jaydick)
Nightwing x Red Hood (Jaydick) AU Completed! Dick lost his best friend to the Joker. He wanted to avenge Jason but Batman wouldn't let him kill. After 5 years, Nightwing meets the Red Hood and sees him as the vigilante who's willing to kill the Joker. While Batman hunts him down, Nightwing hooks up with him. He knew it was wrong but he couldn't help it. He was hot even if he didn't know who was under the Red Hood. Jason was all alone for 5 years. He needed to become someone else: Red Hood. He comes back to Gotham, running street gangs. His goal is to kill the Joker, the person who ended his previous life. But he finds that difficult when he meets Nightwing, someone working with his old mentor, Batman. He may not know who Nightwing is but that doesn't stop him from fucking him. Will Red Hood stop the Joker and get peace after 5 years? Red Hood doesn't know the identity of Nightwing and vice versa. ( I thought it'd be cool if they didn't know :) ). I tried to keep personalities of the characters like they normally are. It's written in the perspective of both Dick and Jason but it's third person. I use Red Hood and Nightwing in the other's perspective since they don't know each other. I'm a bad writer so be warned ;) Also I don't own the art. Hope you enjoy it! If you have any feed back please comment!Complete
