Usually, when someone came into Shul asking about resurrected sons, Rabbi Gelman would politely redirect them to the church two blocks down.

This was not that.

——

When Yaakov learned the son he buried and mourned was still alive, did he also swallow years of grief in the face of that joy? Or did its weight follow him down to Egypt?

Bruce had never thought to ask.

Weekly Fic Recs 30 and 31

Howdy! I'm back from my vacation! And all I got was cherished family memories, a farmer's tan, and Lyme disease (don't worry, I am on drugs for it, lol. Ticks were thick were I was at). Since I didn't have a fic rec list for last week, I'm making a longer one for this week. Although, this will be the easiest fic rec list that I've made because majority of what I have been reading has been from @brucewayneweek!! There were so many good fics to read! Below is a link to the entire collection:

Bruce Wayne Week 2023 Collection!

There are 46 (!!!!!!!) works for you to check out! What are you waiting for??? Go read them!!!

Some other fics that I read that were not BWW fics (but still batfam/superbat centered) were:

borderline by TheResurrectionist - Batfam, wip. More of the EXCELLENT hive mind fic.

Patchwork Pod by Ktkat9 - Superbat, wip. Mer Bruce fic!!

Dr Stevenson by Ocearna - The Batman (2022), wip. Part of the Bruce Wayne vs Gotham series. Battinson interacting with the people of Gotham in a series of emails.

we shall be free; we shall find peace by mediant - Superbat (not introduced yet), wip. I might have screeched when I saw this fic! There is fabulous art by januariat as well. It was also inspired by the below fic as well (WHICH YOU SHOULD ALSO READ). Clark is taken captive by Lex early on, and is given a smol Kon to take care of. SO MANY FEELS.

onward, lonesome hero (carry on, carry on) by hoebiwan - Clark Kent, complete. Clark is taken captive by Lex early on in his life and does his bidding. The Justice League captures him. Much angst, but a happy ending.

Can You Hear Me? by Mawiiish - Superbat, complete. This was a fic in the World's Finest Zine!! And it is SO GOOD. Superman and Batman learn each other's identities when Batman and Nightwing get into some trouble.

Just A Little Bit... by HaleHathNoFury (My_Trex_has_fleas) - Superbat, wip. More of the creepy alien Clark and eldritch Bruce fic. Ivy and Harley are also there AND I LOVE THEM.

a near defacement by TheResurrectionist - Batman, complete. The JL interact with a meta that can control metal, which mess with Bruce's past medical implants, oh no! :(

The Dad Life by Lulu_Ryhmea - Bruce Wayne, complete. Bruce and Roy Harper bond over being dads.

Damn, that was still a lot of fics on top of the BWW stuff. I got a lot of reading done on vacation!

Happy reading!

Batman is shadow overlaid on shadow when he creeps to the very edge of the building and looms on the ledge, peers over that sliver of space ( it really is a very small alley ) and into an apartment that he'd only seen once, crumbling and dark and cold and housing only one little boy, his little boy.

Writer's Month 2023, Day 20: "Different First Meeting" and Bruce Wayne Week, Day 1: "Saving the Savior"

Fandom: Batman Status/Word count: I think this is just a little vignette. 426 words. Summary: Bruce gets some help during a brawl.

An iron pipe was swinging at Bruce's head.

He ducked and elbowed his attacker in one fluid move. Still, he was a second too slow, and the blow collided with his helmet, sending a muffled explosion into his skull. He was pretty sure a previous blow had broken one of his fingers.

He just wasn't having great luck tonight. Three random gangsters should have been easy.

He spun around, just in time for another attacker to come at him with a knife. Unfortunately he was smart enough to aim for the exposed part of Bruce's face, and Bruce, still shaken from the last blow, wound up with a gash right next to his mouth.

He raised a fist, but before he could punch, a beer bottle shattered against his attacker's head.

There was an "AGH!" followed by the tinkling of glass, and the gangster fell.

"The hell?!" one of the other screamed, spinning around. It was the one with an actual gun, though he had yet to fire into the cramped scuffle.

Something moved on the fire escape, ducking out of sight.

POW! POW! POW!

THUD!

Three bullets pinged off the brickwork before the man collapsed onto the ground. Bruce had recovered the first gangster's pipe.

The remaining combatant didn't have time to decide on a course of action before another beer bottle sailed over the side of the fire escape and hit him on the head. He didn't faint, but he staggered, dropped his weapon and stumbled out of the alley, cursing as he held his bleeding head.

Bruce let him go. Partly because he was small-time, partly because of his own injury, but mostly because his rescuer presented a more pressing matter to attend to.

"Hey, kid."

The boy jumped up with a high-pitched squeak. Bruce thought he might run up the rickety stairs, but instead his spine straightened, and he turned to Bruce with a fierce, almost haughty look.

Bruce took a step forward and was surprised to find that he was limping. Apparently tonight's battle had aggravated yesterday's leg injury.

"You could have gotten hurt back there."

"I saved your life," the boy said defiantly.

"You almost lost your own. I can handle myself."

The boy's scowl deepened. Bruce hesitated before his next comment.

"Good aim, though. Two for two."

The boy continued to glower, though Bruce caught a subtle shifting of his shoulders, which made his stiff posture seem less defensive and more confident.

"What's your name, kid?"

"...Jason."

Bruce gave a grim smile as he wondered what to say next.

i firmly believe in Duke doing silly things with his power

hiding under your dad's cape when it's pouring outside can be something very special + bat-rain-poncho, several years later

why did no one tell me that today is batman day

[star--bird]

Bruce (over the phone): How's your first week at college been?

Tim: Awful. I had to say a fun fact about myself at the floor meeting and the only thing I could think of was I went to the same high school as Nightwing. No one fucking knows who that is out here.

Dick (in the background of Bruce's call): Rude.

Hal, interrupting Barry mid-sentence: Hold up. You were in Gotham? Batman’s Gotham? ‘No-Meta-in-Gotham’ Gotham?

Barry: Yeah? Bats needed my forensic expertise. It was so cool. We traced-

Hal: Not fair. I want to go to Gotham

Barry: Ask Batman

Green Lantern, thinking about how he’s going to kill The Flash: You want me to go in there *gestures to open manhole* In the sewer. To fight an alligator.

Batman: Killer Croc is a man

Green Lantern: That looks like a crocodile and eats people.

Batman: Yes.

Green Lantern: What about him? Make him do it *gestures to Red Robin*

Red Robin: Can’t

Batman: He can’t.

Green Lantern: Why not?

Red Robin: Don’t have a spleen

Batman: He doesn’t have a spleen.

Green Lantern:

Red Robin, over coms: Did you guys hear that? Green Lantern just told me he wants me to fucking die

Coms: *explodes as everybody speaks at once*

It feels strange, having nowhere to hide, nowhere to use as protection. Just one story buildings and bright sunlight and flat land as far as the eye can see, just the vast and unbroken sky. It makes him feel as if there's eyes on him, somehow, that he's being watched and can't even try to figure out by whom, and that there's no way to get away from it except to find the tallest point and know that he's the one seeing the most, watching rather than being watched.

Dick: were you even a Robin if you haven’t climbed up Bruce and sat on his shoulders?

(Later)

Bruce: Hello Damia- What are you doing??

Damian (arms crossed sitting on Bruce’s shoulders): fulfilling my duties as Robin, what does it look like I’m doing?
