Batman has a long, hard week and clinging to the mundane is sometimes the only way to get through.
That's just how Gotham always is, though. There's more to Batman than punching bad guys - here's a week in the life when he's just starting out, and all the different things he does to help Gothamites.

Sometimes, your community is you, a seal you've never actually met, a number of late-night service industry workers, 2 former grad students, and a lady who’s a leggy killer whale on land.
Sometimes, that’s plenty. This is AMAZING. Hilarious and heartfelt and the kind of thing you often only get in a comic book fandom. <333

Long (770K words over 5 stories!) AU where Bruce fights to ensure Joker gets the death penalty after he kills Jason, and spiralling out from there, starting with his reconciliation with Dick and Tim joining the family. Highly compelling reading.
A Sad Song With Nothing To Say by

It starts with the Make A Wish foundation, and ends with a funeral.
Which, Bruce supposes, is unfortunately how things involving the Make A Wish foundation usually work. But what happens in-between catches him completely off-guard. A kid from Crime Alley requests to meet the Red Hood and Jason obliges. Have tissues handy. *sobs*
Tim Drake's Photo Album by

AU where Jason survives Ethiopia so Tim doesn't become Robin. He ends up joining the family a little later. I enjoyed this a lot.

Tim and Damian get turned into a cat and dog, respectively, while on patrol, and will have to work together to get turned back into humans. Oh heart.
