Gotham City was supposed to be a new beginning, the beginning of a bright future, a new chapter of your life. Yet Gotham City turned out to be all that and much more than you expected. One casual encounter that was about to change your life forever. One impulsive decision that set in motion a chain of events you weren't ready for. One declaration that was about to place you in the midst of a nightmare. What future awaits you in a city converted in darkness even by the day? What secret hides in the shadows of a forgotten past? What awaits at the end of your journey through Night, Nightmare, and Fear?

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. I had so many things I would've loved to tell you, but now that you're here in front of me, I only have one thing to say," "π π©π’π΅π¦ πΊπ°πΆ" γSwearing γFemale Reader γStoryline is mine γAll DC characters aren't mine β’βͺοΈHΙͺΙ’Κα΄sα΄ Rα΄Ι΄α΄ΙͺΙ΄Ι’sβͺοΈβ’ #1 jasontoddxreader #2 alfredpennyworth #3 damianwayne #5 jasontodd #9 joker #9 redhood #63 agent #79 harleyquinn πππππ π³πππ: August 16, 2021 π΄ππ π³πππ: October 25, 2021Complete

So when Jason finds out a secret she's been keeping-what happens when he finds himself in a position where he needs to get closer to her? And what happens to Jayla after she realizes Jason is gone... for good. And he wasn't gonna come back. *![Who We Are [Damian Wayne x Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/180209724-256-k595202.jpg)

In Gotham, Bruce Wayne and you, another socialitie, have always been rivals - with sharp tongues and forced smiles. While Bruce plays the charming playboy, you keep your reputation clean and controlled, untouched by the tabloid scandals but never far from Gotham's elite. What neither of you know is that by night, you're both something else entirely. As vigilantes operating in the same shadows - Bruce as Batman and you as a sly, strategic force known only to the underworld - your paths begin to cross under different masks. Neither realize who the other really is, but the connection grows. A reluctant alliance forged through rooftop encounters, bruised ribs, and whispered questions in the dark. As tensions rise in both individuals, the lines between rival, ally, and something more begin to blur.
