In Gotham, there was a rumor. A rumor, saying that the Bat was the coalescence of their sins, come to punish them (they said that, due to the Batman being formed of their sins, it could not kill them, lest it be weakened).
The Bat was formed of the night, and the lines between it and the night blurred, to the point that it became all but invisible in the shadows, only able to be seen by the glow of its eyes, or a shadow blotting out the little light of the moon as it flew in the skies, surveying its territory.
The Bat was eldritch, a myth, a tale told to children to frighten them into behaving. 'Be good, and the Batman won't snatch you away to join its brood'.
By day, a ditzy socialite, CEO of Wayne Industries, by night, a vengeful shadow in the dark, punishing criminals and doling out justice, the Bat was real.

"It sounds fictional, doesn't it? A little girl waiting years for her best friend to return knowing he couldn't due to a situation out of his control." She said with a little chuckle as she diverted slightly from my statement "It sounds like to me we waited too long to admit the truth to one another," I replied as her hand moved to the side of my neck "Maybe we did..." She said as she began to stare at my lips moving her line of sight between my lips and eyes causing me to gently pull her closer "And maybe this is our second chance to fix that mistake..." I rebutted as we began to move in dangerously close to each other's lips also feeling the warmth from each other's skin burning into one another's
You Never Cease To Amaze Me, Bats

From the Joker. Months pass before Batman is seen out on the streets again. But he's different, strange.

No one sees Batman without a mask except Alfred. Batman is darker, already slightly twisted in the head - he's spent his whole life, fighting people like the Joker, people who don't deserve his pity. So he doesn't give then them any. He holds grudges even beyond the memory of others. He hates asking for help. ----- "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."Complete
Flipping Coin - Forever Between Choices
A Wayne's path was written long before they could walk it. Born to power, bound to legacy. As the sole heir to a dynasty of wealth and philanthropy, Cassandra Wayne, Gotham's golden princess, was destined to inherit her mother's grace, not her father's empire, not his war. But all of changed the night her parents died. From their ashes the Bat of Gotham rose. Not a myth. Not a man. But a young woman who refused to let the city her parents built fall into ruin. She fought alone, until a farm boy from Kansas fell out of the sky and called himself Superman. Where she had only known shadows, he was sunlight. So bright, unshakable and endlessly hopeful. Cass never understood his faith in humanity. Not when she had seen the worst of it. Not when so many good people were lost. But he was Superman and maybe, just for once, she wanted to believe in heroes too. Or: What if Batman was a woman and Superman met her when they were both still young enough to believe they could save the world?Complete

Alone
Nightwing has been abandoned, first by his mentor, Bruce, then by Wally, his best friend, then by his second family, and now by everyone else. They blame him for what happened to Wally, they blame him for Kaldur almost dying, for Megan getting captured, for the destruction of the cave, and for keeping this all secret from them. Nobody asked him if he wanted to be left in charge, nobody asked him if he was alright during the invasion, nobody seemed to remember that he was only eighteen, nobody seemed to realize that he had to become Batman and protect Gotham along with Bludhaven , and nobody seemed to care about what their words did to him. Everyone knows that stress can hurt you, that you should try to get unstressed when you are stressed. However, some people can't, and so, what happens to them? Warning: language is used, and has some depressing thoughts. Read at your own risk.Complete
Weakness
It was an inside joke. Each of the 'batfam' had a weakness. No one - not even Alfred - knew Batman's. Damian's was easy; Damian's was the heat. Couldn't stand it; he got way too hot way too quickly. Tim's was the dark. Was never found asleep without either a light on or the door open with a light on outside. Jason's was water. He couldn't hold his breath and had panic attacks when he had prolonged contact; say he was in a pool. Dick had two; cold and poison. He froze in twelve degrees (C) and never left the house with a jacket on. And the poison traveled at least three times as fast through his bloodstream as he didn't clot easily. Alfred had one too; as impossible as it seems. His was his age; he was nimble, yes, quick, yes, agile, yes, but occasionally his limbs cramped, or he had trouble breathing. ---Ⓜ️ for blood, gore etc, and bad language! ---Complete![Unrequited Love [Jason Todd x Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/190437513-256-k194569.jpg)
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," "𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶" 》Swearing 》Female Reader 》Storyline is mine 》All DC characters aren't mine •▪︎Hɪɢʜᴇsᴛ Rᴀɴᴋɪɴɢs▪︎• #1 jasontoddxreader #2 alfredpennyworth #3 damianwayne #5 jasontodd #9 joker #9 redhood #63 agent #79 harleyquinn 𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚛𝚝 𝙳𝚊𝚝𝚎: August 16, 2021 𝙴𝚗𝚍 𝙳𝚊𝚝𝚎: October 25, 2021Complete
