Summary
"I dont even know who you are," you wispered in disbelief, more so to yourself than to him. "I don't even know your name,"
A small, curious part of him wondered how you'd react if he pulled off his mask and presented you with the very same man that's been working with you at the station. Your "good friend" detective Grayson.
"I'm no one," he said instead.

Summary
“We’re each other’s choices. I’m yours, and you’re mine.”
Running away would be the sensible thing to do. Getting as far away as possible from him, the one person who’s your ticket to losing your freedom. Not searching for him out of stupid curiosity and showing up at the last place you should: his house.
They say curiosity killed the cat, but yours seems to always end up as the key unlocking doors that should probably stay locked.
Because when you open the door to Bakugou Katsuki’s life, it’s not a loving marriage, not a happy family of three you find, but falsity, forced duty, and a dark secret that threatens his very own life.
Bakugou Katsuki, the pro hero tasked with catching you and your downfall. And you, the vigilante exposing ugly truths for a living—his salvation.

Summary
They were the best of friends, the girl and the boy from the slums. Sleepovers, training sessions, reading together, playing board games, missions, secrets, traumas, movie nights, video games, there was little they didn't do together. Until he died. Sixteen years old and in the grave. Fourteen years old and lost in grief. Seven years have passed and it's time for Jason to finally pay her a visit.
( A/N: not the best summary but you get the point lol. don't expect this to be a comic accurate story. i will do my best to keep characters how they are represented in their media but i'm not holding myself to any particular story line. consider this an AU if you will. please check TW's. i will put chapter specific ones in the notes at the start of every chapter but for the first chapter i will try and cover all the potential triggers this story will cover. anyways, essentially this is a story where you are jason's childhood best friend, who isn't aware that he is alive. don't expect everything to make perfect sense, we will gain more backstory as we progress. enjoy xx.)

Summary
"Also, you are fucking insane. We found an emergency evacuation override. This place's about to get even more crazy. You might wanna get away."
You narrowed your eyes and looked up to see Rictus frantically yelling at everyone around him. Oh, you will get away. Just as soon as that fucker pays for taking Roy. Soon enough, the lights momentarily turned red and a blaring alarm sounded from the speakers. People started getting up and running away, leaving you, a couple of unfortunate idiots still standing in your way, and Rictus. You were panting, blood running down the side of our face and hands. You were pretty sure there was more of it splattered on your boots and suit, but you only had eyes for one thing. You could see the moment that rat face realized you were definitely not leaving yet. You gave him a grin, and started running.

Summary
As one of the top 10 Vigilantes in Inazuma, [Name] has managed to make a name for herself as "Flower". Despite all that has happened in her life, from her parents' death, to her unwanted powers appearing, and the restlessness and anger that has been brewing inside her ever since she was little, [Name] is doing well and balancing her double life as a civilian and a vigilante with ease. That is, until a pesky thief appears in her life, throwing her completely off balance as she dedicates her entire being to capture the cocky asshole and put him in jail once and for all.
As always, though, the archons are not on her side, and fate seems to have something completely different for her in store.

Summary
You sigh and swing around to face him properly, arms crossing tight over your chest. "Okay, fine. You want a conversation? Here’s one. I’m not trying to take over your turf, I’m not trying to make your job harder, and I’m not going to be here forever. I’ve got my own problems. I clean up what I can, I get out of your way, and that should be enough."
"That's less of a conversation and more of a monologue, if I'm honest," Nightwing says, after a brief pause.
Or,
You finally meet Nightwing. He's more annoying (and less scary) than you thought he would be.Series

Summary
"We are doing nothing," you reply. "I don't date coworkers."
"Why not?" he asks, sounding genuinely curious.
This question is not in any of your pre-planned scripts for how this conversation usually goes, so you take a moment before saying, "I just… don't."
Not your strongest moment, you'll admit, and Grayson apparently agrees, if his smile is anything to go by. "What if I said it wasn't a date?"
"Then I'd say I don't go on non-dates with coworkers either," you answer promptly.
Or,
Dick Grayson is annoyingly persistent, but you don't seem very eager to say no either.Series

Always like Dick to be late, after you’d both agreed on a time to meet. You think he’s doing it just to spite you - as if he hadn’t done that enough already.

Summary
You didn’t want to be a hero. You didn’t even want to be in this city. But when no one else protects the people falling through the cracks, you do what you can—quietly. Violently.
Until Spider-Man gets in your way. Until Peter Parker makes you smile.
And until you realize you might be falling into a web of your own.

Summary
In the streets of New York, injustice thrives in the dark.
Despite your work alongside Daredevil, you have to dig deeper into the criminal underground of NYC to discover the roots of corruption. Your vigilante life becomes entangled with your past as you work to infiltrate the underground mob run by the infamous Kingpin, freshly released on parole.
Loyal federal agent Benjamin Poindexter is tasked with overseeing Fisk’s house arrest– and aiding in his empire under the alias of Bullseye.
The both of you become interlaced within the Volchiy, a Russian gang led by your childhood friend; you moonlight as a vigilante, trying to take down the mob from within, while Dex is unaware the new girl he can't get his mind off of is the same one in a mask he fights in the streets.
Torn between secret identities, lies, and threat of betrayal, you and Dex navigate a tension filled clash between loyalty and justice. -

Summary
Damian stands alone, leaning on the edge of the building. You’re not surprised by this—Damian has always preferred being alone to being with others. Honestly, you’re not sure he even enjoys being with others (though Jon has assured you he does). The only reason you think he maybe can tolerate being around a group of people, aside from Jon’s constant assurance, was the fact that he was here, on this roof.
He doesn’t have a red solo cup, but he’s holding a glass cup full of water that he presumably brought from downstairs. You rush to his side in a matter of seconds. “We’re not late!” You announce loudly to him.
Damian doesn’t startle—you’re not sure he’s capable of that. He turns his head slightly in your direction, his expression remaining emotionless. He straightens up slightly, you weren’t even sure that was possible, given his already pristine posture. “I know.” He states casually, taking a long sip from his water. “I gave you the wrong time.”
“I—” You pause for a second. “Are you serious?”
“It doesn’t start for,” Damian lifted the left sleeve of his black shirt to look at his watch. It looked expensive and, knowing him, it probably was. “Another twelve minutes and about… thirty-two seconds.”

Summary
His voice is a low murmur, a dry whisper crawling from an ancient place, somewhere not of this world; his words sound like the faint wind drifting through an empty mausoleum, like a tomb closing over you.
“You forgot who created you. You buried your fear. I’m here to exhume it.”
Or: You're a vigilante and former patient of Dr. Jonathan Crane. You hunt him to end what he started, but he remembers you. And he’s not done studying you yet.
