    Summary

    Damian shows up in the dead of night at Gotham City with swords on his back and a chip in his shoulder, ten years old with blood on his hands and a scowl so fierce that grown men have been known to turn away from it.

    He’s on the run, but at the same time not, and he’s not sure what he’s doing but he knows what he’s expecting, because he’s there to see his Father and his Father was surely just like the stories his Mother used to tell; tall and strong and brave, a shadow in the night, the call of vengeance in the streets, a detective in his mind and a warrior in his soul, an experienced and incredible fighter who was and is everything that Damian should ever try to be.

    Batman is all these things. Father is all these things. And yet, somehow, he still doesn’t quite match Damian’s expectations.

    Nobody does.

    (AKA That one fic with the focus on the fact that Damian was trained to be a killer ninja in probably not so good conditions, and that a sudden transition to the crazy Batfam and- more importantly- Dick Grayson, probably wasn't the easiest to deal with.)

    Summary

    After a podcast turns the shoddy investigation of Jason Todd’s death into a national issue, the BAU is left to solve the case and smooth over the scandal.
    The deeper they dig, the more suspicious the story seems, and the more clues start pointing in one direction: Dick Grayson.
    —------------
    The Criminal Minds team knows a liar when they meet one, and Dick Grayson is a liar to the bone. Unfortunately for everyone, ‘Dick Grayson is a cold blooded murderer’ is an easier leap for a team of criminal profilers than “Dick Grayson is protecting his father’s identity as a vigilante.”

    Summary

    In the sealed scroll he finds a Bingo Book – his own page marking him as an S-class nukenin with flee-on-sight orders.

    “Ok. That is definitely different.”

    In his head he blames Naruto – even if his number one unpredictable student had been nowhere near him on this mission. When things go this stupidly impossibly wrong it must somehow be the future Hokage’s fault.

    Summary

    “I’m from the future—seven years in the future.”

    There’s a long, drawn-out silence. Itachi’s face is unreadable as he stares at Sasuke.

    “You’re what?” he finally says.

    Sasuke travels back in time to stop the war. He infiltrates the Akatsuki in order to kill them - he doesn't expect to take a page out of Naruto's book and befriend them instead.
