Summary
Bruce Wayne had one rule for his bed, unspoken but absolute: it was his.
After twenty years of Gotham nights, of blood and rain and the cold leather of the cowl, sleep was not a luxury. It was a hard-won battlefield. His mattress was memory foam, his sheets Egyptian cotton, his pillow precisely angled to support a neck that had been broken twice and dislocated four times. He did not share. He did not cuddle. He did not wake up with an elbow in his kidney.
And yet.

Summary
(Inspired by a Youtube short!)
Terry McGinnis keeps showing up in the past to "check in" on Tim Drake, which is definitely not suspicious at all. Bianca Aster Stoker, world-renowned Chess Queen and emotionally guarded half-nymph half-vampire, just wanted to play chess and maintain her carefully constructed life of controlled variables. Instead, she gets to witness the Bat-family's descent into chaos over the revelation that Tim Drake 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 become the Joker. She handles this the only way she knows how: by strategically exiting the situation. Tim gives chase. Jason makes crowbar jokes. Damian learns his future involves being dumped. Terry is allergic to bat dust.
𝐎𝐑: Five times the Bat-family panicked about Tim becoming the Joker, and one time Bianca decided she needed a drink.

I Did Not Run Away, Grayson (I Am Merely Inspecting Your City) by Astra_The_Spotted_Hyena
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU

Summary
"I did not run away, Grayson. I am merely inspecting your city to ensure your operational standards have not deteriorated in our absence."
When Dick doesn't return to the manor for three weeks due to a brutal shift schedule at the Blüdhaven precinct, Damian decides to conduct an unannounced, highly official "reconnaissance mission." Jon, naturally, gets dragged along for the ride.
By 2:30 AM at the harbor docks, the tactical facade falls apart, leaving Dick to pick up the pieces—and two incredibly sleepy sidekicks.
Or
Damian insists he didn't run away to Blüdhaven just because he missed his older brother. He is a Wayne; he does not throw tantrums, and he certainly does not get homesick.Unfortunately for him, Jon is too tired to keep up the lie, Bruce is on the comms, and Dick has a cabinet full of marshmallow cereal that makes fighting the exhaustion completely impossible.

Summary
“ugh.. I think I'm still drunk.” Tim heard from his right. He dragged his eyelids open and groaned at the wrong brightness of the morning light. He felt like shit, the groans and moans from the others seemingly on the same boat. The sudden memory of last night's fight had him sitting up a little too quickly. It made him nauseous but he had already seen the damage. He wasn’t in Gotham and he was surrounded by a lion cub, a hippo and a zebra?
TLDR: a madagascar inspired movie. The boys get their ass handed to them and turned into our well-known childhood movie characters before being sent on a ship to Africa.

Summary
Damian Wayne was raised to lead, not to blend in.
At seventeen, high school feels like a punishment he never trained for. He doesn’t fit in with his classmates, doesn’t care about popularity, and definitely doesn’t know how to handle teachers who think he’s just another difficult teenager. Every day feels exhausting. Every room feels wrong.
Then he hears a garage band practicing in the music lab.
Loud guitar. Crashing drums. Messy, early-2000s punk rock.
The band is made up of four teens who don’t quite fit either, a passionate lead guitarist, a fierce drummer, a scruffy bassist, and a keyboardist who refuses to apologize for being different. They all have their own problems, their own baggage, their own reasons for wanting something more.
For the first time since starting school, Damian doesn’t feel completely alone.
And when staying starts to feel impossible, the idea of leaving together doesn’t seem so reckless.
It feels like freedom.
-or-
Damian joins a garage band that ends up being the closest thing to belonging he's ever had.

Summary
"My god, how do you still not have cavities?" Jason comments, frowning at Dick's sugar-loaded monstrosity.
"I don't know—how come your fat ass isn't rolling around with all the burgers you eat?" Dick replies flatly, slurping loudly at his milkshake.
Jason flips him the middle finger. Dick returns the gesture.
"You two are so immature," Damian scoffs. "Idiots," he mumbles, not quietly enough to keep Jason from hearing—but knowing Damian, he might have done it on purpose.
And with that, another wave of insults erupts.
Tim sighs and takes another bite of his burger, dodging without blinking the little spoon of sour cream that Jason redirected after Damian threw it at him.
The guy who took their order slowly retreats toward the kitchen. Tim makes a mental note to leave a generous tip.
Or: Exactly what the tittle says. Everyone has a hard time. But hey, at least there were laughs.

Uber: Gotham by Purple4275

Summary
Harrison “Harry” Walters had thought he was used to all the weird shit Gotham had to offer.
He paid his taxes. He drove an Uber. He kept a glock on him at all times. He’d signed the hostage insurance papers. He’d signed the villain insurance papers. He kept his ears open for Arkham breakouts. And, most of all, he kept his goddamned head down.
But nothing, nothing Gotham had thrown at him could have prepared him for the sight of the fucking Batman in his backseat.
<()><()><()>
Gotham's vigilante life, as told from the perspective of a weary Uber driver.
