No. 1 Party Anthem Anthology by Mauve_Muse
Fandoms: DCU, DCU (Comics), Young Justice (Comics), Young Justice - All Media Types
20 Aug 2026
Summary
A slowburn friends-to-lovers timkon fic broken into two parts: getting together, and established relationship.
Anthology containing:
the look of love, the rush of blood
Kon’s heart felt like it was going to flutter out of his chest. To almost everyone else in the world, he was Robin — an enigma with very little known information. Batman’s sidekick and Young Justice’s leader.
But to Kon… he was Tim. And he was bisexual. And he’d been drunk.
It was like there was a side of Tim that Kon got all to himself. He promised Tim that he wouldn’t tell the rest of the team his name or his sexuality but it’s not like Kon really needed the encouragement. Selfishly, he liked being the only one who knew. Selfishly, he wanted to keep it that way.
before the moment's gone
Kon had never been hornier.
He totally understood why Tim wanted to take things slow. He fully respected letting their relationship take its time. He, honestly, was grateful for the change — it made things actually feel different from his past dumpster fire relationships.
So yeah, he totally got it.
What he didn’t quite get was why the hell Tim was so seemingly intent on getting him as turned on as humanly possible at every turn only to not really do anything about it.

Summary
After the war, the Malfoys escaped Azkaban by the thinnest margins: Narcissa’s lie in the Forbidden Forest, Lucius’s cooperation with the Ministry, and Draco’s youth all became evidence in their favor.
Years later, Draco Malfoy lives quietly, far from the public eye and even farther from forgiveness. He has no need for work, no desire for redemption speeches, and no interest in helping the Ministry that once put his family on trial. He spends his days buried in alchemical scrolls, cursed artifacts, and old magic no respectable wizard wants to understand.
Then former Death Eaters begin dying.
No wounds. No wand signatures. No killers.
Only silver scars beneath the skin, the unmistakable mark of Unbreakable Vows turned lethal.
As Head Auror, Harry Potter is forced to bring in the one person who might understand the magic behind the murders.
But as the bodies pile up and sealed records begin to vanish, Harry realizes the Ministry has been keeping more than evidence locked away.
And Draco Malfoy, for all his silence, may know far more than he is able to say.

Summary
Bernard Dowd, the newest kid to take on the Robin mantle, has big shoes to fill. With Batman still mired in grief after the death of Jason Todd, a new villain over the horizon gunning for Batman's life, and coincidence after coincidence pointing to a grand design, he'll have to solve a deadly array of happenings and get down to the bottom of it all: Who is Moriarty?

An IOU (and Other Things That Aren't Owed) by Asidian
Fandoms: Batman (Comics), Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics), Red Robin (Comics)
09 Jun 2026
Summary
"Alright, asshole," says Jason and plunks a folder down directly on the keyboard of Tim's laptop. "I'm calling in that IOU."
Tim doesn't startle, not visibly. But all at once there's a batarang in his hand, the blade gleaming sharp. It takes him a second to register who the intruder actually is before he gives Jason a lingering, suspicious sidelong glance and tucks it away again.
"What IOU?" says Tim. "And how'd you get in here?"
He looks like shit, frankly. There are dark smudges under his eyes, and he's lost weight since Jason's seen him last. From the coffee cups scattered around the desk, it's probably even odds that he's on at least 24 hours without sleep.
"I work in mysterious ways," declares Jason. "By which I mean your window's open. You get kind of careless when you haven't slept, Timbo."

Dizzy Edges by Jojo_Squires
Fandoms: Batman (Comics), Batman - All Media Types, Nightwing (Comics), Robin (Comics)
07 Jun 2026
Summary
Tim Drake didn't quite know what he was agreeing to four years ago, but he tried to make the best of it! Using notes from his past (future?) self, he (somewhat messily) tried to help everyone his other self cared for. Now, it's four years later and he can mostly ignore the second set of memories lying in the back of his brain. It'd be much easier if Dick Grayson would just leave him alone. If Tim believed in destiny he might actually think that the universe cared about what was lost.
Dick Grayson has spent the last year feeling like he's veered off course. Something keeps itching at the back of his brain. He's missed some clue. Helena Bertinelli's promised to help him crack down on human trafficking, but Dick thinks her foster kid might actually be more help in that department.

What if Tim had a twin, and what if nobody knew?

Summary
Malfoy was up to something. Or something was up with Malfoy. Either way, it couldn't be Harry's fault that he was irrevocably drawn to him.
This is a story about a journey to distant shores, about redefining who you are, about a change of perspective.

Summary
Anthology containing:
Tournée du Chat Noir
Red Hood, the sometimes-criminal, sometimes-anti-hero, meets a cat burglar with an opaque past and a flexible moral code. Jason Todd, the TA, meets an over-caffeinated, half-feral underclassman. These events are definitely not related, right?
Wayne Family Dinners Don't Usually Involve This Much Blood And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves
“Okay, alright, nobody panic,” Dick said, clearly panicking.
“No one is panicking Dickhead,” Jay snarled, also panicking (though, significantly less than Dick, it seemed).
“Uh, guys?” Tim tried to butt in.
“Yeah, of course, everything’s fine! Tim, are you fine?” Dick’s voice was reedy.
“I—”
“No, he’s not fine, the demon brat put a fucking hole in him!”
Or: Jason and Tim have been dating for a few months now, and it's time to introduce him to the family! What could possibly go wrong?
NOTE: This is intended as an epilogue to Tournée du Chat Noir, but it can be read as a standalone.
Damian and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Contrary to popular belief, Damian Wayne was capable of admitting when he was wrong. It’s just that it happens to him so infrequently, it doesn’t seem to come up all that often—and he is not wrong about Timothy Jackson Drake. Something was just not right with that boy, and Damian would find out what he was hiding, come hell or high water—he had to clear his good name, after all.
NOTE: Set immediately after Wayne Family Dinners Don't Usually Involve This Much Blood And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves
I know I'm not Father of the Year, but can we please keep the crimes to a minimum?
“Father, I have found him out! I knew I’d seen him before, and I! Was! Right!” Damian gestured to the Batcomputer, triumph ringing in his voice. Bruce moved to inspect the file, and—
“Son, what is this.”
“This,” Damian pointed at the blurry figure half cropped from the surveillance image, “Is Timothy Drake.”
Or: Damian persists in his campaign against Tim, and drags Bruce with him (kicking and screaming).
If You Want Something Done Right, You’ve Got to Do It Yourself
“I’m not asking you to lie to Batman, I’m just asking you to… not tell the truth?”
“Erasing the photos of you from my files is a bit more than a lie of omission, Tim,” Barbara pointed out dryly.
“Okay, whose fault is this really, though? You didn’t have to tell me that Damian put it together, or that Bruce was looking into it. You could've left well enough alone and let me hang. So like, you’ve made this an ‘us’ problem,” he reasoned.
“Oh, no. No, no, no. No. You are not blaming this on me! I’m not the one who’s spent ten years avoiding Batman, only to fuck his middle child and gaslight his youngest! You are asking for this, mister, and I am not bailing you out.” She concluded her tirade by popping a sick wheelie and booking it back over to her computer.

Summary
Jason never asked to be the family’s black sheep, Tim never expected to be the forgotten middle child, and Damian? Well, Damian is still figuring out what it means to be a son, let alone one of many. A new drug hits Gotham, but the real chemistry is what happens when these three actually start talking to each other—and maybe, just maybe, start to care.

Summary
"Four broken bones and some impressive bruising—really outdone yourself this time, Potter," a deep voice murmurs. Harry blinks, trying to make sense of his surroundings, but his ears are still ringing, and his vision is nothing more than a blur. It takes a few moments before he can make out the blond man in Healer's robes standing before him. "Malfoy?" Harry croaks, struggling to sit up in the hospital bed.
St. Mungo’s is far from unfamiliar territory for Harry Potter, but lately, he’s had the misfortune of repeatedly running into his childhood nemesis there. To make matters worse, London is under siege by a series of explosive attacks, and Harry’s boss has come up with the brilliant idea to assign a certain Healer to assist the Auror team.
Years have passed since the war, and while Harry has taken up the mantle of an Auror, Draco Malfoy has completed his training as a Healer. Unforeseen circumstances have brought them back into each other’s lives, but after all this time, can they still be called enemies?

Summary
“I know what charismatic megafauna are,” Lois interrupts.
She doesn’t say get to the point, Drake, but Tim’s pretty sure he can feel her thinking it.
“Right, well, fun fact, although there’s been various charitable efforts to replace the pipes in all residential buildings, Gotham sewers have the largest collection of lead infrastructure in the United States still to this day because there are large, angry, violent and occasionally cannibalistic, depending on how much you go along with the line at which something transhuman becomes not human anymore, things down here. And it’s easiest to just…”
“Uncharismatic megafauna, yeah, great,” Lois says, exhaling. “Lead infrastructure?”
“Yep!” Tim says.
Lois sighs, annoyed but not particularly frightened. “Well, I think we’re probably going to be late to dinner.”
