    Summary

    What if Captain America had recruited Peter before Iron Man?

    In a world where Peter is on the losing side of the Civil War, he has to face the Sokovia Accords and the consequences of choosing to stay in the city without signing them. But when Ross sends Tony Stark to chase him down, they realize they both might have bitten off a bit more than they could chew.

    Summary

    “I’m going to ask you a question and I need you to tell the truth for me. Is that okay?” Nightwing asked softly.

    Tim nodded.

    “Have you heard of Alvin Draper before?”

    Before he could stop himself Tim was taking in a sharp breath that sounded almost pained.

    One of his men must have talked, he supposed that’s what you got when you hire anyone who’s interested, but it still hurt. Maybe he should create proper profiles on all of them once this is done so he can deduce who’s trustworthy and who isn’t.

    “No,” Tim said, although he was aware how obviously it was a lie.

     

    Or: Tim accidentally becomes a crime lord.

    Summary

    You know how you have that favorite game? The one you played, far too many hours to count? The one that you fantasized about at night? The one that allowed you to be the hero in your comparatively drab life that the most exciting thing to happen is missing your bus or finding an extra five in your pocket? Yeah, that game?
    Now imagine, just for a moment that you’re suddenly in that game… What are you going to do? Help your beloved characters of course! Keep them out of danger, use your knowledge of the game to save lives that would have been otherwise lost?
    But this isn’t a game. And I’m not the Herald. So, I still do what I can right?
    Oh, if I only knew just how wrong I was… because this is not a game. And sometimes the name ‘Hero’ well, that’s only a mask the monster hides behind.

    Summary

    In a world where Jason Todd survives Ethiopia, Tim Drake still finds a way to help Batman by surveilling Gotham rogues and anonymously informing to the Bats and Oracle. It's a delicate balance, to help the world's greatest detective without drawing too much of his attention, but Tim can't risk Batman discovering his parents' very illegal collection of ancient artifacts.

    At least, until his parents begin behaving strangely and Tim's investigation finds him at the center of a plot that threatens the entire city. The only way to save Gotham is for Tim to reach Batman, but doing so means losing everything he knows.
