Summary
Batman is aging. Aging to the point where criminals can hear him in silent buildings and he, for the first time, can be found in the shadows by the naked eye. Gotham's Rogues have noticed. The Joker, in particular, has already begun to build plans and plant predecessors. Damian Wayne has observed his father's chronic exhaustion, running too deep for the truth not to be heard: his time is coming. Cristen Young has noticed too, even as a newcomer to Gotham from Fawcett City.
Damian, the (unwilling) heir to the mantle of the Batman, is distracted from his future by Selina Kyle's intriguing new associate. Familiarity has never done anything for him. But the all-new, all-good Catwoman and "Catgirl" are followed closely by a shadow on the wall, someone involved in the pasts of both Stray and the present Robin... and not in a good way.
Between the violent influx of missing homeless kids and the turning of close allies, Gotham's future dark knight must understand the most important rule he was taught: no one is ever what they say they are.
Cristen Young is not to be trusted, he tells himself. Because cats like her eat birds like him.

***This is the first fanfic I'm posting online, so all constructive feedback is appreciated. Additionally, I've been working on this story for nearly 3 years, and am only about a third of the way through it. I expect it to be at least 300 printed pages and anywhere from 60-90 quick chapters, so please bear with me as I continue towards completion. The initial completed 30 chapters should be posted fairly quickly.***

Summary
"Visenya.” The nurse said. She approached Ned with the cotton fabric that had been covering the feather pillow. Ned took it from her and gently covered the babe, wrapping her in it, covering her bottom and securing her to his chest with an arm. This child was his responsibility, his to care for, his to love, the last part of his sister that walked this earth.
“No.” He corrected the midwife who was staring at him, he could feel Howland’s eyes on him as well.
“Lyliana.” Ned cleared his throat, feeling moisture build up in his eyes. Feeling like the last year was going to erupt from his eyes like a waterfall, one warm salty tear hit the babe’s cheeks from where she was swaddled, he let them come, let them fall from his long nose and land on the babe who cooed at him with wide eyes.
“She is my daughter, her name will be Lyliana.”
The Dragon Lives.

Summary
In the Imperial Year of 1159, Garreg Mach Monastery was set aflame and Jeralt Eisner abandoned it all in the ashes. And with him, the lives of his twin children. Several years later, various circumstances caused twins Byleth and Byriel to return to the place where it all started right as the land of Fódlan is on the sword’s edge of chaos and destruction. Suspicious characters pull the strings amidst the shadows and the three future rulers face off in a game of conspiracies and liars. What starts as an untrustworthy game of secrets climaxes into a bloody war to determine the ruler of all of Fódlan.
However, what would have had one winner now has a chance of the three lords to find hope in the darkness. The two professors, children of time, must rely on each other to build trust between the collapsing relationships of Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude to rise together and face the true enemy.
What once was a sanctuary to all slowly peels back its gilded facade to display something truly rotten underneath…
(Written by two terribly exhausted writers in an attempt to put all the routes together because the children deserve it. Updates every Monday.)

Summary
In the bright fluorescence of gym lighting, squatting with blood splattered over his knuckles like a Pollock painting, the man reminded him of the worst of his bullies before he grew bigger and got smarter. As Izuku refused to look away, a barrier gives way in the other man’s expression. Something hot dances in the sharp creases of the man’s eyelids, and his smirk changes to something approaching predatory.
“That was a good fight, Bambi. Let’s do it again.”
Izuku’s eyebrows rise incredulously, and with an unexpected wave of courage says:
“How about no, asshole?”
