Iris Caldwell grew up in the shadows of Gotham, surviving a mother who was absent and a father lost to drink. Her only anchor was Jason Todd-her best friend, her secret hope for escape. When she discovered he was Robin, the city's masked hero, she was awed... but nothing could prepare her for the tragedy that would shatter her world.
Jason was gone.
In the aftermath, Iris is left navigating grief, hidden truths, and fleeting encounters with those who walk the line between hero and vigilante. In a city that swallows lives whole, some shadows refuse to fade.
(Heavily inspired by "Batman: Death in the Family," "Batman: Under the Red Hood," "Arkham Knight," and other comics.)

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...
