Today’s topic is the Bat family.

No real reason, just Bat family fics I’ve enjoyed. Admittedly I have a weakness for Jason Todd fics, so he’s possibly a little over-represented. Mostly gen, ensemble fics featuring two or more Batmen, Batwomen, Robins, and the like. 

 

 

For all the blood on his hands, Red Hood was never just a villain. And Nightwing never gives up on family, not for good.

(Or: The one where Dick bleeds a lot and Jason argues with everybody.)

(complete, 70k) (gen) (warnings: major character injury; discussion of child endangerment; canon character death; PTSD)

 

Bullets, knives, a three story fall, even a fucking crowbar hadn't managed to keep Jason down permanently, but Dick Grayson (and the rest of his "family") was going to kill him with kindness.

(complete + sequels, 18k) (gen) (warnings: violence and character injury )

 

Jason is awake and aware but half-a-world away from Gotham in enemy hands. He thinks of nothing but escape, but what happens when he meets a certain little boy? Partial AU. Starts of at Red Hood: Lost Days #1 then spins in its own direction.

(complete + WIP sequels, 128k) (past Bruce/Talia, gen) (warnings: violence, character injury, PTSD, angst)

 

When Robin gets kidnapped, the Red Hood decides to go for the gold badge in Prodigal Son and rescue him on his own. Dragging a heavily wounded Damian to safety doesn’t go as great as Jason had planned, until it does.

(complete, 4k) (gen) (warnings: character injury, mild violence)

 

(baby!damian AU) Bruce dies, Dick becomes Batman. But the Damian that Talia leaves in his care isn’t a ten-year-old warrior, he’s a ten-month-old baby.

(complete, 23k) (gen) (warnings: mild violence, character injury, angst…um, also lots of baby fluff if that’s not your thing)

 

The problem with soulmarks is when you give one much less vivid than you get. Damian knows that pain very well.

A platonic soulmark AU where you leave colors on each other's skin the first time you touch.

(complete, 2k) (gen) (warnings: angst)

 

Jason really oughta know better than to talk to Bats.

(My review) (complete, 21k) (gen) (warnings: mild discussion of injuries and death)

 

Wherein Bruce Wayne undergoes a Redemption Process For Superheroes Who Are Also Terrible Dads, and his children think it's cute.

(complete, 10k) (gen) (warnings: none)

 

Jason Todd finds himself in a Gotham strangely different from the place he calls home, and he's not happy about it. Now he must learn to deal with a Bruce that cares and a Dick Grayson that's only thirteen years old if he ever wants to make it home.

(complete+ sequel, 39k) (gen) (warnings: angst, PTSD, canon character death )

 

sad little orphan bruce travels to the future and meets the family he’ll have one day :) too bad he can’t stay forever :(

(complete, 22k) (gen) (warnings: canon character death, grieving, angst)

 

Dick gets de-aged. You'd think this would be a routine thing.

(complete) (pairing) (warnings: angst)

 

Bruce is dying. Slowly, painfully. Not going out in a blaze of glory and defiance for a greater purpose. He's caving under the weight of his own age, under the damage he's done to his heart through the years. Terry can't be by his side constantly to do damage control. More than that, he can't watch it happen with no reprieve. But there's no one else.

Terry needs help keeping vigil by an ill Bruce's bedside. But the old man had kids once, didn't he? Are the bridges he burned unable to be rebuilt? As he observes, Terry definitely starts to wonder how this family used to be.

(complete) (gen) (warnings: character dying )

 

Lost Days!Jason trolls Officer Grayson!Dick in Blüdhaven. Dick counter-trolls with the power of love. (It's super effective.)

(complete, 81k) (Dick/Jason) (warnings: explicit sex, pseudo-incest (adopted brothers), violence, major character injury)

 

After Tim Drake dies, Batman tries to deal. Turns out “the clone” he’s been so cold too might be the person he most needs to talk to.

(My review) (complete) (Tim Drake/Kon-El, Bruce Wayne/Kon-El) (warnings: major character death, grieving, pairing switch, dubcon )

 

Most dragons sleep on their hoards.

Bruce's hoard sleeps on him.

Or: Bruce is a dragon. Predictably, he hoards orphans.

(complete, 13k) (Tim/Stephanie, mostly gen) (warnings: canon character death, mild violence)

 


(Looking for more fic recs?)
