    If not for the cat, Jaime wouldn’t have loped back to Maegor’s Holdfast. If not for the cat, he would have been too far to hear the screams.

    "This place could be beautiful, right? (--You could make this place beautiful.)" by llamallamaduck

    Elia lives, the Taragon line openly lives, and Jamie never becomes the Kingslayer. Just buuucketloads of trauma and suffering for everyone, but still happier in a lot of ways. "Jon" is brought to the Martells, not the Starks, and there are many shifting arcs; the ways the characters could've grown if they hadn't been hemmed in by Tywin's successful, sadistic machinations... Gritty bits abound, but charming.

    Summary

    Tim is good at press conferences. Except when he accidentally reveals JL secrets that he didn’t know were secrets. Whoops?

    In Tim’s defence, it was really obvious.

    Now he’s got Batman and a bunch of rogues after him trying to figure out if he knows what he’s talking about.

    "Everybody Knows" by White_bread_with_a_wig

    Assumptions by the Drakes quash Tim's big discovery, setting him on a different path. And then he's caught out in his own assumption. Delightful and funny.

    Summary

    Jason Todd was never adopted by Bruce Wayne, even if he did make a name for himself at fifteen by stealing the tires off the Batmobile and getting away with it.

    Some years later, Jason Todd has risen up the ranks in Gotham City as the crime boss Red Hood and controls the Bowery. Not even Batman himself will pick a fight with him, despite Jason stealing his tires three more times since he took over the Bowery.

    But the Bat kids are a different story. They don't understand boundaries.

    Free Tire Removal Service by wording

    Jason Todd was never Robin, so his relationship with the Bat kids is far less acrimonious and more tire-theft- and pranks-based. Cute.

    Summary

    Tim doesn't sleep much, and as a result he hallucinates sometimes. He keeps hallucinating a pair of green eyes in the dark.
    At the same time he struggles with his place in the fractured batfamily, and tries chasing the Red Hood, who surely is completely unrelated to these green eyes he keeps seeing... right?

    cue kidnappings, bad decisions, and a whole lot of food!

    a bit angsty, but with a happy ending because i REFUSE to write sad ones. title is from "people got a lotta nerve" by neko case :)
