Summary
“No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
“That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
Harry didn't like the sound of that.
“But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
“Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

“You want his head? For a mere act of trespass?” Black Mask says as Jason struggles to pay attention again.
“Did I say I wanted his head?” Lord Castle asks. Kneeling down near Jason’s head, he uses the hilt of his sword to tip up his chin. “Pretty face like this, shame to waste it. I’ll take his hand.”
***
Jason agrees to marry Frank to save his life, and finds a kind of salvation he hadn't anticipated.Series

Summary
“Batman, ETA.” He grunts into the comm, a last-ditch effort at calming himself down. If he can just reassure himself that they’re coming, that they’ll- he’ll- be there this time, maybe he can calm down enough to stall until they get here.
He doesn’t get an answer before the air suddenly becomes quiet. Too quiet. The gunshots, the yelling, all of it’s stopped, and the only thing Jason can hear right now is his blood rushing loudly in his ears.Fuck.
A few seconds pass, and then there are slow, heavy footsteps headed right towards him. Clunk… Clunk… Clunk… And ain’t this just so fucking familiar, him, frozen, waiting on Batman to save him from death but knowing, increasingly by the second, that he’s not coming. And that Jason’s going to die alone.
The footsteps don’t stop, his comm is devastatingly silent.
Damn. Guess he’ll just have to fight his way out, or die trying.
Not like it’s anything he hasn’t done before.

Summary
“Damian,” Bruce says, very slowly, “do you know someone named Jason Todd?”
Damian frowns at him. “No?”
“Real tall guy,” the Joker suddenly pipes up from the holding cell, “white streak in his hair. Kinda looks like Bruce Wayne, if you ask me!”
Damian blinks. “Oh. Well, I do know a Jason that fits that description, but his last name is not Todd.”
“What the hell is it then?”
Damian frowns harder. “Al Ghul.”
And just like that, Bruce’s worldview goes to complete and utter shit.
—
Or: Jason decides that if someone has to be a monster in this world’s shadows, it might as well be him. This decision might’ve been influenced by the fact that Talia al Ghul decided to spring her son on him and also gaslight everyone into believing that Jason is her eldest child. Also, he kills his pseudo-grandfather and kind of accidentally becomes the new R’as al Ghul, because by now, he’s way too deep in Talia’s con-shit to back out.
…It all goes over surprisingly well.

Summary
A War Survived. A Life Spent. A Second Beginning.
At one hundred and forty years old, Harry Potter dies quietly, the world long at peace, his name carved into the bones of history. But death is not the end.
He wakes as a boy again—eleven years old, scar fresh, heart aged, and a century of battle-forged memory coiled inside him like a sleeping dragon. He has known love and grief, war and peace, triumph and the unbearable quiet that follows. He has lost everyone. And now, he is forced to begin again.
But Harry is not the child he once was.
Behind his too-old eyes lies the full weight of a life already lived. This time, he is not waiting for fate. This time, he has plans. Horcruxes to hunt. A godfather to save. A war to prevent before it begins. He has allies to gather, secrets to unearth, and a future to rewrite with blood, wit, and quiet fury.
Yet the past does not forget easily. And the more Harry changes the world, the more it changes him.
In shadows, whispers stir—of a boy too clever, too calm, too dangerous.
Of a second life unraveling.
Some lives end.
Others echo.
But the greatest stories begin again.Series
