Summary
Through the carnage came a figure cloaked in shadow, she appeared to move through the bodies rather than step on top of them. Even standing somewhere around seven or eight feet tall, she was far too humanoid to be a foe, they had long since abandoned their ruse of playing at humanity. She wore a cloak that appeared to dissipate and knit together like threads of smoke, the gossamer threads like the grey of a new dawn. Under the hood, he could only just make out her eyes, a clouded sky blue, pupils, and her gaze unending.
She stopped before him, their eyes meeting through his tears. There was no empathy in her gaze, only his own agony reflected back at him, though her hand was light as a soft breeze as she tipped his chin up.
“Please,” Dick said, even though he didn’t know what he was asking for: release, mercy, death.
“You long to go back.”
“Yes.”
“For a different outcome.”
Dick nearly choked on the word, “yes.”
“I can make it so. I can give you the gift of foresight, but I warn you, it comes at great sacrifice as it does for anyone else who it is bestowed upon.”
Dick Grayson may not be able to change everything, but my god, is he going to try.

Summary
She feels her eyes slowly closing and as the tension in her body fades, a set of sharp nails lay on her head and begin stroking her hair. A soft lullaby begins to fill the air and just as the last of her life leaves her, she recognizes it.
“Beware The Court of Owls, that watches all the time, ruling Gotham from a shadowed perch, behind granite and lime. They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed, speak not a whispered word of them, or they'll send the Talon for your head”
Bird-boy is a Talon.or
A woman wakes up in Gotham and for some reason just can't die no matter how hard she tries.

Summary
Batman dismantled the Court of Owls, but missed their smallest Talon. As he returns his attention to the rest of Gotham, Talon skulks through the shadows and tries to survive to serve the Court another day- unaware that there are no more Owls to command him.
Meanwhile, Wally struggles to learn what things like safety and love at home mean. He fights to overcome the damage left behind by his parents. He thought gaining powers like Uncle Barry would fix everything, that he would finally be needed and valued, but he was wrong.
When everything goes south in their young lives, Talon and Wally find each other. In each other they find everything they were missing and more as they struggle to survive. The world never did anything for them, so why should they do anything but return the favor?
(Sorry, I’m shit at summaries. Inconsistent updates because college is a bitch.)

It's harder, with Star. He wants to turn to her, to open up like a flower that hasn't seen the sun in years. It takes all his strength to keep his face blank.

Summary
"Dick misses you" said Tim softly on the phone.
"You don't speak for him you know" muttered Jason. Tim could be practically manipulative but he was right. The brothers all missed each other and Bruce being away for a week was the perfect excuse for Jason to visit the manor.

A few sad AU concepts mushed into a fic where not much actually happens. With popcorn.

Summary
After Blüdhaven is destroyed, Dick goes silent. Not metaphorically, he still keeps in contact with Tim and Babs and the others, but he only texts and emails them. He won’t respond to calls and avoids seeing them in person as much as possible. When they do run into each other, he doesn’t speak. They don’t question him- people handle grief in different ways- but the longer he stays silent, the more concerned they get. Clearly there was more to the story of Blüdhaven’s destruction, but no one wanted to press Dick about it- he’d been through enough. Over time, he eventually opens up to them.
A year later a new crime lord shows up in Crime Alley and there’s something so familiar about him but Dick can’t quite place it. And then one night he finds an injured Red Hood on his patrol route. The injury is bad, a deep cut to his neck which Hood is steadily applying pressure to so he doesn’t bleed out, and Nightwing ushers him to the nearest safe house, regardless of the consequences. He can’t let (another) person die in front of him, no matter if they’re a villain or a hero.

Summary
Dick Grayson was alone, like really alone. Bruce didn't remember him, his siblings hated him, and his friends thought he was dead. If they knew he was alive, his friends would probably hate him, too.
After his siblings' adverse reaction to him returning from taking down Spyral, Dick had retreated to his apartment in central Gotham and stayed there. Two weeks passed, and he didn't leave, except to patrol. He was careful to stay away from his family's routes. No one called, no one stopped by, and Dick didn't speak a word. He ate and drank when he felt the necessity, no more, no less. He was drowning and felt no need to try to surface.
In which Dick has a horrible, no good couple of months, and Slade Wilson decides to come and make it worse

Summary
Sometimes he liked the quiet. Sometimes he liked being alone. He had never been alone in the Court – there had always been other Talons or there had always been a Master he was assigned to. The only time he had been alone, he had been cold, and he had only been cold when he had been inadequate.
He learned how to be satisfactory very quickly.
Or: Young Justice is formed; it leaves Dick with thoughts.

Summary
Jason slumped forward. “I just... I wanna see my brother again, y'know?” he admitted, dimly noting he was chewing on his thumbnail. “I dunno if he’d still like me, though. I’ve broken, like, a lot of his rules.”
Goldie’s hand returned to his shoulder as the other flashed a few quick signs. I do. He tapped Jason’s chest and flashed another. I’m proud of you.
Jason laughed. It was a wet thing, loud among the empty rooftop. “Well, it’s good you’re not him, right?”
An odd look, something Jason couldn’t name, crossed Goldie’s face for a moment. Then, that hand ran across his shoulders, pulling him into a side hug, as the other rounded up to ruffle his hair.
