Summary
Carter played the recording for a third time. Red Hood’s lips pursed.
“I don’t know what the fuck Nightwing was talking about,” he said. “That’s not a Thai dialect. He’s always had the worst ear for Kra-Dai languages.”
(or, the one where an enterprising GCPD member uses the batsignal to ask the local vigilantes for translation help, and the Batfamily knows WAY too many languages)

Summary
Taking the Entities & Avatars of The Magnus Archives and just adding them to the DC Universe. Mostly focused on the Batfamily, who are almost all Avatars in this version (except for Alfred and maybe Duke; I haven’t decided yet, but it would be funny if he was the only Not A Literal Monster out of all of them.)
For people who don’t know, the Entities of TMA are eldritch extradimensional Fear gods (and yes, the capital-F is appropriate), while avatars are people who have been twisted by choosing (knowingly or not) to follow an Entity’s path until they stop being human. The supernatural there is very vague, bordering on dream logic, but avatars get thematically appropriate powers and must induce their Entity’s Fear in others to sustain themselves.
I have my own theories about some of the specifics, and have based which Entity I assigned each family member on both those & a lot of character analysis.
Spoiler-free explanations in the notes. I will not be using most of the Entity lore we got from s5 (didn’t like it much), and I will not be accounting for the new series. My personal additions to the lore will be in brackets.

Summary
Jason thought he'd seen the peaks of Gotham criminal stupidity, and then they kidnapped Robin. Seriously, from the bottom of his heart, what the fuck were they thinking? In what world does that not end badly for them?
(Certainly not the one where Jason's new family are monsters summoned directly from your worst nightmares, who decided to be "nice" about it.)Series

Summary
There’s a monster in the cave, and Bruce doesn’t know what to do about it.
(More accurately: there's a CHILD in the cave. Bruce brought them here, and Bruce still doesn't know what to do about it.)Series

Summary
Bruce stirred when the bed beside him dipped, and the sheets across his chest were yanked hard.
“What,” Bruce said roughly. A small hand smacked against his face.
“Shh,” said a little voice. The sheets pulled again. “Go back to sleep.”
