Joker (DCU)

Jonathan wakes up to a new world, new memories, and old friends. What do you do when everything you've ever known is turned on its head? Jonathan's answer is 'find someone else dealing with the same damn thing and complain to them about it. Loudly.'

AKA: I hate Absolute Batman. So I thought to myself 'what if the characters suddenly had the memories of their more-or-less main counterparts (albeit a bit softened), and hated the Absolute universe as well?'

The joke goes like this: a not-Robin with a new name and a new face grabs a gun and knocks on Joker's door.

But this time, he doesn't call on Batman to prove himself to him. This time, there's no one around to stop him. This time...

...he pulls the trigger.

Ten of Arkham's inmates are forced to become teachers as part of an experimental new therapy program. They live and work at a highschool, with proximity collars that won't let them leave the premises.

This is their group chat.

A place to describe my ideas for a Batman reboot, with the hopes of eventually turning them into a long-form fic.

Things that were too small or out of context or whatever to be their own fics, so they go here. Random moments with Batman characters.

In which Riddler is a force of nature, Scarecrow is more attached to his non-crow friends than he realizes, and Twoface arguably gains a terrifying new weapon: Riddler himself.

As of today (4th of March, 2026), it has officially been two years since I first began posting on this site. To celebrate my second ficiversary, I'm posting a fic with Twoface in it! Enjoy! 🥳

Edward sees Joker's nest for the first time and has some thoughts about the state of it.

Joker comes to Jonathan with an unusual request. But is all really what it seems?

First chapter: A poem about Batman and his Rogues. Dark is not always evil, while light is not always good.

When Jason comes back from the dead, Tim sees a way to quit being Robin without too many consequences. Now if only he could find him...

Once again, Edward's birthday has rolled around. This year, he just wants a quiet, calm day. He's not even going to break out of Arkham this year!

While Jonathan ponders his new cellmate, Joker performs a nightly ritual.

In the middle of a plot, Batman stops to take a photo. This has Consequences.

Stephanie's first Halloween after being adopted is a bit more chaotic than she might expect. Includes Fear Toxin, bad song rewrites, and maybe the beginning of a little romance.

Was going to post on Halloween, but accidentally deleted it and barely managed to restore it, so panic-posting now. Will add Fanart on Halloween, as a compromise.

The Iceberg Lounge is many things. To some, it's a silly theme club. To others, it's the center of a vast criminal organization. To Gotham's wealthy, it's a lovely place to bring a date or catch a show.

To Gotham's freaks, it's a haven.

(Points if you know which song I'm pulling the fic name and chapter titles from).

If Joker was gay and not abusive, what might his friendship with Doctor Harleen Quinzel have looked like? Perhaps Incorrect Quotes can give us the answer.

Riddler: I hate you
Joker: Love ya too!

Incorrect Quotes with one of my favorite chaotic duos

Non-murderous Joker and Batman. Incorrect Quotes. So I really need to say more?

The Rogues have a group chat. An incorrect quotes-chat.

Trigger Warnings: Slightly more graphic than my usual stuff, but nothing too bad. Oh, and some cursing.

In a world where Joker isn't a murderous, abusive scumbag, he wouldn't be the kind of guy to manipulate a young psychiatrist into losing her mind.

So how did Doctor Harleen Quinzel become the infamous Harley Quinn?

Harley Quinn is the teenaged ward of The Joker, but the entire Rogues Gallery adopts her and they all live together.
