Now with all her debts to the League of Assassins settled, Athena Thomas can take time to find out who she really is, what she really wants, and who she really loves. Luckily, her childhood crush - Dick Grayson - isn't far from sight. The Batfamily is growing in size as more and more heroes offer their lives to protect Gotham. Nightingale is officially one of them and she is devoted to the city. With an alliance so large, Gotham becomes an almost impenetrable sanctuary.
Almost.
Unknown to Athena, an ancient evil is lurking in the shadows of Gotham, waiting for the perfect moment to rise. And that moment is soon.

Unrequited Love [Jason Todd x Reader]
Love may seem like a really complicated term depending on the person who seeks it. It can be pretty like a scene from a fairytale, but it can be the very weapon that can kill you emotionally, and (Y/N) has learned that the hard way. She searched for it, as anyone would. Wished to receive that love that heartened people's souls, and enhanced connections. Just as she was slowly beginning to understand it, that wish slowly began to turn to a pipe dream. "I finally found you" "I always had hoped you'd come back one day.

My Light Within Her Dark [T. Drake]
I 've seen multiple stories about Tim Drake, so I thought I'd make one as well, huge fan of young justice. This book is dedicated to @ZeninaD Her stories gave me the inspiration for theming it after Tim Drake/Red Robin. Her powers are unique, so unique that she has been on Batman's radar for almost 2 years. The League have heard rumors about the mysterious wolf in Gotham city but since it was Batman's turf they didn't bother. Batman explained to Nightwing/Dick Grayson, Red Robin/Time Drake, Red Hood/Jason Todd, and Robin/Damien Wayne that we needed to find out what's the mystery behind the wolf protecting Gotham. But as Red Robin investigated the wolf he also had his eyes on the new girl at school, Selena Karsen. She was this vail of mystery as she was the most beautiful girl in school and the smartest, he was intrigued by how she was playing hard to get. Little did they know that both their alter ego's were falling in love. This story contains swearing and little mature actions, but not smut/lemons happening here, I'm not that kind of writer.

Red hoods daughter
percilla Jackson, or Percy as she was known, lay amidst the carnage, the last ember of life flickering in her sea-green eyes. Her friends, fallen heroes of Olympus, surrounded her, their lifeless forms a chilling testament to the brutal battle. Then, a blinding light consumed her; a chorus of divine voices, Zeus's rage a palpable force, Poseidon's sorrow a tidal wave. Against her will, she was reborn - the Goddess of Justice, Vengeance, Children, and Peace, a cruelly ironic quartet of domains. A century passed, the weight of her impossible responsibilities crushing her. Her pain, far from fading, spiralled into a vortex of despair, threatening to shatter the very fabric of her divine existence. Lord Chaos, ever vigilant, saw her impending destruction. He couldn't allow such a powerful being to unravel, not when the cosmos trembled at the thought. With a flick of his chaotic hand, he sealed her divinity, her memories reduced to a whisper of her name, Percy, and her sea-green eyes a striking contrast to her now youthful appearance. He plucked her from the Olympian realm, depositing her in a dimension where the Old Gods were mere legends, a world shrouded in shadows and echoing with forgotten magic. He chose his vessel carefully: Jason Todd, the Red Hood, a man haunted by his own demons, a man who craved purpose.

Unexpected || Jason Todd
Lila Moore and Jason Todd have been at war since they were seventeen. What started as small, petty high school conflicts - ruined essays, sabotaged chemistry experiments, and public embarrassments - quickly escalated into a full-blown rivalry. From cheerleading competitions to yearbook disasters, their battles were relentless, sarcastic, and utterly infuriating. Even years later, nothing has changed. Lila, now Bruce Wayne's sharp and capable assistant, thinks she's moved on. Jason, the black sheep of the Wayne family, seems determined to prove otherwise, showing up at the most inconvenient times to irritate her with a perfectly timed comment or smirk. Their encounters are a clash of wit, pride, and stubbornness. Each prank, each verbal jab, and each carefully orchestrated annoyance reminds them of their shared history - and forces them to face the odd truth that their rivalry is far from ordinary. Yet beneath the endless sarcasm and public humiliations, something unexpected simmers. Every glance, every carefully aimed insult, every moment of unspoken understanding starts to blur the line between hate and something dangerously close to desire.Complete

DC One-Shots (Mostly Batfam probably)
Changed the Description. Mostly Dick Grayson centered. Different AUs here and there, made by me or known ones like Reverse Batfamily AU. Ships are less or more likely to happen (BIRDFLASH). Angsty literature may not be the best. Steph and Cass are to be mentioned from time to time. No smut. (Sorry,) (Not.) Plots may not make sense but to me they do.Complete
