This is a fun little jaunt back in time to reflecting on the Riddler's stint as a private eye. He's made a lot of enemies out of prior associates, and this is an exploration my lovely husband wrote for me to satisfy my darker side. Please take WARNING! that this fic contains elements of non-con/rape/femdom etc that is meant for a mature audience!

She can't go back, she won't. She failed Gotham, she failed the cowl, she failed Bruce. She had murdered, broken the code that the Bat symbol stood for, she deserved the exile she bestowed on herself. But Gotham is in danger again, and it won't survive unless she returns. But returning means she will be hunted by her father's own men. Does she dare don the cowl one last time?

In a world without heroes, Dick Grayson is just struggling through life while taking care of his little brother after the recent death of their father... or was it murder... or is Bruce even dead? Civilian AU. Rated T for language, character death, creepy Thomas Wayne, Jr. and dark themes.

This is a prequel story to Batman, which will continue after he becomes Batman as well. It is the first in my series of Batman books. The next one will be called Batman: The Court of Owls, and based loosely on Snyder's comic of the same title. This book, however, is about Batman fighting against Carmine Falcone, and some other Batman villains such as the Penguin.

Bruce wanted to cry. Or die. Whichever came first really. He was just so tired. Why couldn't anyone understand that he didn't want his kids to have this life? Why couldn't his own kids understand that? Bruce Whump. Guilty batkids. Bruce deserves a hug.
