Summary
One year ago, you had your first day at a new school that’s crawling with Gotham’s elite. It was nothing like you had originally expected, especially after you get bit by a cat on campus, but here you are. You also hadn’t expected that same cat to turn you into a witch, but, again, here you are.
Unfortunately, with your newfound abilities and cat sidekick, you found yourself constantly getting wrapped up within Gotham’s politics and vigilantes. So when a string of seemingly random murders takes hold of Gotham City, you very reluctantly agree to assist the Bats.
(Your agreement wasn’t actually reluctant, because you’d probably do anything if it meant getting to work with your best friend, Tim, but nobody has to know that).

Summary
Jason Todd wakes up in the wrong Gotham.
Here, he stayed dead. Here, his death broke his family so completely they became the monsters they once fought. Dick Grayson haunts the skyline with wings and talons, Barbara Gordon moves like a spider made of shadow, and something that might have once been Batman rules from a corrupted cave.
The city is quarantined, the air tastes of ozone and old blood, and Jason should be running.
Instead, he finds himself drawn to the creature that was once his brother—the one stalking him through twisted streets with eyes that still burn with something almost human.
Some hunts, it turns out, go both ways.

Summary

As she tries to survive in the city without attracting attention, small actions and patterns begin to give her away. And although Li only seeks to return to the universe she left behind, the echo of her presence awakens the obsession of a man accustomed to unraveling mysteries: Bruce Wayne.

Summary
A series of misunderstandings involving conspiracy theories and government secrets leads to a local Gothamite 'connecting' Bruce Wayne to the kickboxing furries that overrun Gotham.
What follows is a truly impressive internet campaign with the sole intention of creating the most embarrassing fanfiction of WayneBat known to man. The only problem being that the deeper Jayden goes into the rabbit hole, the more they realize that other Billionaires are so, so, much worse.
Lex Luthor's ego needs a nuke anyway. Even if said nuke results in robot monkeys raiding Jayden's house because they didn't know how to use a VPN.
In this one case, the Ao3 authors curse might have been self-inflicted.
(I was informed recently that DC has an in-universe Ao3 equivalent called 'Tales of our own', I will be changing every instance of ao3 to to3 the next time I update)

Summary
Three years after his resurrection, Jason Todd did what he set out to do: kill the Joker. He’s hellbent on purging Gotham City of its injustices—and he’s alienated himself from his family, leaving Laura, a childhood friend, in the dark about his return.
After Joker’s murder, Gotham persists in the way it always does—fevered or iced in, it ardently pursues its depravity & chaos.
Jason stalks the city’s underbelly, hunting down the embers of a drug war he unwittingly helped ignite. The fires the Joker started are still burning—and they rise against the Red Hood’s wrath. Meanwhile, something sinister is bleeding back into circulation: fear toxin is lacing the Joker’s 'Candy'—like a sick, last-laugh.
Laura Bailey works as a children’s librarian at Gotham Public Library. She used to feel—now, she does her best to numb it away. She tries not to remember the boy who came into her life like a storm back at Gotham West High—or how he left it, grievously, two years later by the hands of a psychotic clown.
She doesn’t know he’s alive.
He doesn’t seem intent on telling her.But when terror resurfaces in Gotham, the past won’t stay buried—and neither will what’s always existed between them.

Summary
Jason Todd is dead. In the aftermath of rebirth, he finds himself lost and alone on the streets go Gotham City. With a hunger for vengeance, Jason turns to the Red Fangs, a gang ruling over Gotham's dark underbelly. Gaining the Red Fang's trust would be an indispensable tool, but the work proves tumultuous. Jason doesn't mind the violence, but he does mind his client:
Evangeline Stryker is dying. Not really- but the chains of the Red Fangs are tight, and the mansion walls are closing in. She loves the power of being the heir to the Red Fang empire, it's the protection and unnecessary coddling that really drives her nuts. So when her daddy forces a bodyguard onto her already overflowing plate, Evangeline isn't happy. She'll find a way to get rid of him, it's the Red Fang way: "vincere aut mori."
"Conquer or Die."

Summary
He looked up, pulling his hands to his chest in disgust as he felt his jeans get soaked. He was in a dark alleyway, cold wind rushing past him. He swiveled his head around and up, it was dark and cloudy and gross everywhere. The walls towered around him and he swore he saw a red smear staining the metal trashcan next to him.
As he stared at his surroundings in disgust, all he could think was: What the actual fuck.
Basically, Monty goes to Gotham after the events in Port Townsend during Dead Boy Detectives.
