WOW guys I know it’s been a while since I have published anything here but I might be back! I didn’t wrote very much in the meantime but I have some wip going on so stay tuned.
This one was intended to be something like my “Windows” fic but I got sidetracked with it into a batboys thing. I really want to write JayTim, and if you have any prompts for me, anything you want me to write, let me know!

Dark spots started to fill the dirty grey surface more and more until the all of it was black and wet in yet another rainy night in Gotham. At the edge of the rooftop crouched a dark figure with pointed ears and its cape fluttered in the wind, soaked from the drizzling rain.
Batman looked over the city, streetlights down below and houses, mostly dark; the moon barely shone his light through the heavy clouds. Night vison enabled, he saw enough. It was a quiet night so far, no Batsignal on the cloudy sky above. He listened to the sounds of the city. They were distant; up here it was like in another world, above everyone else, a 360 degree overview over Gotham and closer to the sky.
He thought he heard a distant bang, not a gun shot, but
somewhere in the sky too far away to be his concern. Gotham was his territory,
not space. More sounds drifted up to him, drunk men headed to the next bar,
prostitutes chatting up potential clients.
A grapple gun shooting a line and then footsteps. Quiet and stealthy.
“What are you doing here, Dick?”
“Great to see you too, Bruce.”
“Hm.”
No one could hear or see them up here. Nightwing crouched next to him. “Thought we could hang out a little. “
“On a rooftop.”
“Yes. Like old times.”
An anonymous hint alarmed Commissioner Gorden that the penguin was up to something in the narrows. Also a note in form of a riddle told him that the Riddler was involved as well. Several of the detectives of the Gotham police department were investigating already but James Gorden knew what he had to do. That they needed help.
It still rained and the wind was cold as he entered the
rooftop of the GCPD. Head ducked, lapels high against the rain, the
commissioner walked to the grand headlight and turned it on to shine the Batsignal
into the night sky, He waited a few minutes, then two shadows came flying and
landing before him on the roof,
“Batman. Nightwing.”
“Hi commish.” Nightwing waved at him. Batman nodded his head towards Gorden.
“What is it. “ Gordon handed over the note with the riddle and the information he’d gathered on the Penguin.
“Leave it to us,” Nightwing said.
“Alright, Good luck and thank you.”
But the two had already disappeared behind the wall of rain. Commissioner Gordon stayed a little longer on the rooftop, stared over the city into the night, feeling a sort of otherworldly freedom, before he turned off the headlight and returned inside to go back to work, knowing the city was save.
