Batman - fic rec - work in progress
Title: Missed Call by iamfitzwilliamdarcy
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Jason Todd, Damian Wayne; Jason Todd & Damian Wayne, Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne
Word Count: 549
Summary: "Damian guilts Jason for not checking in.
Prompt: Jason and Damian, "It's not like I missed you or anything""
Why I Rec This Fic: Ah, dysfunctional families, my favorite, the communication dissonance works and the details about the surrounding activities felt make it feel more realistic.
Title: At the End of the Day byiamfitzwilliamdarcy
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne, Alfred Pennyworth & Bruce Wayne
Word Count: 887
Summary: "Being a teenager is hard. Being the butler and sole guardian of a teenaged Bruce Wayne is harder."
Why I Rec This Fic: Bruce is just a teenager here even when the things that make Batman are there, and the loving but complicated relationship shines though in this small moment.
Title: Equivalent Exchange by Lysical
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Dick Grayson & Jason Todd
Word Count: 1367
Summary: Apparently favors don't expire on death.
Why I Rec This Fic: Great sibling banter.
Title: Agony! That Can Cut Like a Knife by iamfitzwilliamdarcy
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Tim Drake,
Batfamily, Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, Damian Wayne
Word Count: 1563
Summary: "Tim Drake loves Gotham sports, but Gotham sports do not love Tim back"
Why I Rec This Fic: Funny!
Title: And So This is Christmas by Drag0nst0rm
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Alfred Pennyworth
Alfred Pennyworth & Batfamily
Word Count: 1901
Summary: "It's not that Alfred isn't happy with his job. It's just that sometimes he really wishes that he had known what he was getting into when he signed up for it."
Why I Rec This Fic: From what I can gather Alfred is the only person in the bat-household with sense – he deserves a raise. Funny and heartwarming.
"And we've pretty much given up on getting Damian to apologize for anything short of attempted murder at this point."
He hoped that last part was hypothetical, but given the rest of this insanity, he rather doubted it. "Then I assume Master Damian has given up on ever having dessert privileges.
Title: Minimum Height Requirement by Drag0nst0rm
Fandom: Batman
Character/Pairing: Dick Grayson, Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, Alfred Pennyworth, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, Damian Wayne, Cassandra Cain
Word Count: 66462
Summary: "Somewhere in the multiverse, there's a universe where letting his children dress up in capes and follow him into vigilantism seems like a good idea.
Bruce is determined that it isn't going to be this one . . . Despite his children's repeated attempts to convince him otherwise.
(Or: "When you're eighteen, you can do what you want. Until then, no capes.")"
Why I Rec This Fic: There is so much in this: a cool concept, incredible funny moments (so much long-suffering bat-dad), heartwarming and heartbreaking family dynamic because it isn´t necessary easier like this.
Bruce watched him go with dismay. “Commissioner Gordon’s daughter is studying library science. Commissioner Gordon’s daughter stays in the Cave. Where did I go wrong?” he moaned.
Alfred patted his shoulder consolingly. “I know what you mean, Master Bruce. I know what you mean.”
Title: Positive reinforcement by towardsmorning
Fandom: Young Justice (cartoon)
Character/Pairing: Bruce Wayne & Dick Grayson
Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson
Word Count: 1038
Summary: "Batman is looking at him with slightly narrowed eyes that anyone else would be likely to find intimidating, but which Robin knows well enough to interpret as Batman's 'what is the appropriate way to respond to people who are actually remotely normal' face."
Why I Rec This Fic: I like how Young Justice deals with parental/mentor/family relationships mostly, but there is also a lot of room in the canon for little explorations like this.

Batman Beyond
Title: Not a Happy Day by Vexed_Wench
Fandom: Batman: Beyond
Character/Pairing: Melanie Walker
Word Count: 100
Summary: "She still had a small amount of hope."
Why I Rec This Fic: Batman Beyond has some real cool female characters, they are all kind of underused. Melanie is one of them. Her relationship with her family is interesting.
Title: An Awfully Big Adventure by MiraMira for raz0rgirl
Fandom: Batman: Beyond
Character/Pairing: Maxine "Max" Gibson, Terry McGinnis
Maxine "Max" Gibson & Terry McGinnis
Word Count: 745
Summary: "Batman isn't the only hero Gotham will always need."
Why I Rec This Fic: Max is really cool, and should have gotten more in canon. She is a tough cookie and she takes her fate in her own hands.
