Batgirl: Year One

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.

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
Begrudging Affections
Dick gets shot, and somehow love comes tumbling. 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). Please consider clicking it to give the art a like and a reblog if you can! Also, Dick is back in Gotham instead of Blüdhaven in this fic for plot convenience purposes. This is absolutely a lighthearted rom-com, so it's not that serious! ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ (Photo featured on cover by Priscilla Du Preez [@priscilladupreez] via Unsplash; 'white pillows and bed comforter photo'.

Dick Grayson x Reader Oneshots
Just a few oneshots about your favourite boy wonder. I don't do smuts and I don't do angst, just fluff pieces and stories. There may be a little angst inside the oneshots, but they'll all end happily, I promise. Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters or fictional places. They are all owned by DC comics. And you own Y/n (obviously). If there is an OC then I'll say so. Also, the first few one shots are ones that I wrote before I got this account, so the quality of writing varies depending on how long ago I wrote them. I apologise in advance for anything that makes you cringe.Complete
The Ex
Everyone knows that Bruce Wayne and Talia Al Ghul made the love. Talia became pregnant and when her child was old enough, gave him to Bruce. Damian Wayne. The fourth Robin. But what happens when Talia decides to take back what's hers? Sorry for the crappy book cover. I wanted to have something on there when I posted the first chapter cause a default pic of a guy with a guitar doesn't really fit the mood. This is just a short story that I will crank out pretty quickly cause Covid sucks!Complete
JayDick : How It All Began
The first few chapters are rough, im warning you lmao Disclaimer: this is not canon backstorys or anything! But it doesnt shy away from who they are, they are hero/antiheros, they find love in a hopless place, school.Also the first portion of the book is pretty bad written i was new to the whole thing but i think at chapter 4 or 5 i do another formatting which is much better so yeah. It's a sorta AU lol Up's and down's are thrown their way can they survive? Discovering things about themselves each day comes at a cost for those around them, people close to them, but they will always find a way back to eachother, you can say this is a love story, but a story must come to an end, and this is just the begining, yet far from the end, they're the ones who make this love, they must find who they are and what they need... But they already know those things... They need eachother, they want eachother and they won't have it any other way Book 1: How It All HappenendComplete
