Summary
Badly injured in the battle at Ashford, Robert Baratheon is forced to marry Cersei Lannister at Casterly Rock to secure the allegiance, and forces, of the Westerlands during the early stages of the rebellion, against the Targaryen rule. The ensuing pregnancy, and birth, of Harian Baratheon, will forever change the history of Westeros.
In another reality, Harry James Potter takes matters into his own hands. Desperately lonely and fed up of a broken, post-war world, he completes a sacrificial ritual to send him to a new world. His interference changes the direction of Westeros, and its fate, as the dark night closes in and yet another war threatens. His presence in Westeros will change history...and the people around him as he once again stands up as a hero to the world.
A life lived twice, for better or for worse, it matters not, for the price of cheating death is always a high price to pay. -

Summary
Jason gets caught by the JLA.
Of course, he needs someone to bail him out, and Batman is the supreme authority on the Watchtower and his dad so it makes perfect sense to call him. Unfortunately, Batman is still mad about those warehouses he blew up a few weeks ago, and karma is an asshole.
Justice League, meet Brucie Wayne.

Summary
“So!” Dick says with great fanfare, throwing himself across Bruce’s designated chair with nary a care in the world.
The Justice League look on with a mix of befuddled awe, like they’ve never seen a child dressed up like a traffic light before. Which they haven't. Bruce mentally steels himself as Dick clears his throat. “Why am I here, you ask? Well, when two people love one another very, very much-”
“You’re adopted.” Bruce says.
Or; Bruce lets Dick attend a Justice League meeting on the Watchtower. Bruce has regrets.

Alley Business by thetiniestteapot
Fandom: Batman - All Media Types, Batman: Under the Red Hood (2010)
30 Sep 2025
Summary
What if Jason actually stayed as competent as he was in Lost Days and Under the Hood, and actually reacted to his (ex-)dad slicing his neck open?
What if Bruce actually got taken to task (eventually) for being abusive?
What if people actually decided to talk to each other, and listened to what the other person was saying?But really, it's: what if Jason had a support system; and what if Jason had someone tell him that violence is not how you solve all societal problems.
(And what if I decided that the narrative would be on Jason's side as much as DC's narrative is on Batman's)
(Also, the series is only called Alley Business because I wrote that one first)Incomplete (and the total word count is half of what it says - the chronological order fic doubles it)
