I've been seeing a thing or two about a DC au where the justice leage, specifically Batman/Bruce is a patient at a mental asylum and all his villans are just workers at the asylum.
But what about the bat family? What about Alfred? What about Cat Woman?
Here's my take on it:
Alfred is a family friend of the Wayne's and basically like an uncle to Bruce before Bruce's parents died (which i headcannon for this universe that they died in a fire that left Bruce scarred and Bruce loved superheros because i think it ties to his delusions)
And Alfred visits Bruce as often as he can, making sure to try and be nice to him, like bringing him paperdolls and crayons to draw with under the supervision of the doctors at the mental asylum.
And those paperdolls? They're the bat family alright.
Every single doll is a member of the bat family, with Bruce imagening how they are his kids that help him fight off 'his villans' and is very protective of, only letting Alfred and Cat Woman (who's another doctor at the asylum that is nice to him and he views her as an okay most of the time) and will always carry them around with him, imagening and caring for them like they are real children, but they are all delusions with a little bit of Bruce's personality and traits from when he was younger and not crazy.
And also, Jason's death was just Dr. Jack Napier (the Joker) aciddently ripping the paper doll of Jason when Bruce and Jack got into a scuffle, and because of Bruce's delusions, they decided (behind Jack's back, specifically Selina Kyle {who's Cat woman} decided to do this after they all saw how distressed and more mentally unstable Bruce got) to give Bruce more paper dolls and fix up Jason before they gave it all back to Bruce.
And i'll leave it at that, i'll let you all give your own thoughts about it. :)
I love when i see the trope of "son leaving home and finding himself a team that he's now in charge of" and "dad who was also previously a leader visiting his son to see how hes doing" and then the dad sees just how much his son has grown, and no longer needs him to take care of the situation and how he starts feeling like he isnt needed anymore but his son shows him he still is an important role in his life.
Really love those tropes, especially the part where the dad is realizing his son is being an amazing leader and doesn't need him anymore to hold his hand and feels a weird sense of longing to continue helping his son and just can't fathom the fact that his son isn't a little boy anymore.
Yall freaky, Pegasus, come get yo lovers. Can't have a normal fucking breakfast at Denny's.

Ferryman, Gabriel and V1 love triangle that ends in a polycule
Where V1 fell in love with Ferryman because they're the only one apart from terminals to take them in and show kindness.
Ferryman is in love with Gabriel for saving them so long ago and giving them hope (like in cannon without the love part maybe)
And Gabriel falling in love with V1 for getting his shit rocked by them. Plus discovering he's got a masochism kink.
V1 decides to take a break from their decent trough Hell, and visit their beloved Ferryman who they don't remember what exactly happened with after they fought the Leviathan in Wrath.
Then find the Ferryman in one of the messed up houses praying to an altar to Gabriel, the ship is gone, since the incident with the Leviathan. And then approach the Ferryman with the same kindness that they were given.
They find some way how to communicate, sign language, writing, or whatever else, and strike a deal that V1 will guard and help the Ferryman while the ship is rebuilt, and they will in turn get a permanent residence in the new ship. (V1 didn't want to have a permanent spot, the Ferryman was just insistent)
Gabriel visits because he's been looking for the machine everywhere because they haven't been going down Hell like usual and wanted to ask Ferryman about them. And just finds V1 in Wrath helping the Ferryman rebuild their boat and retrieve anything from the bottom of the ocean.
By literally putting a hook and cord on V1, while the Ferryman stays at the top and fishes them out every time there's three light tugs at the cord. With Ferryman almost dropping the fishing rod once they saw Gabriel and the angel helping them fish out V1 who clung to the Ferryman with a somehow still intact artifact or statue, or book, but freeze as they see Gabriel.
They would have shot Gabriel square in the face if it wasn't for the Ferryman stopping them.
So basically, Ferryman is the only thing keeping V1 and Gabriel breaking out from another fight.
And all 3 decide to just rebuild the Ferryman's boat and remain civil.
Shenanigans undoubtedly ensure. Where they all learn they love things about eachother.
V1 loves how the Ferryman would let them climb over them and would teach them sculpting. Skeletal hands over metal ones ensuring the right amount of force was put on whatever little statue they were making as a bonding experience. And also loves seeing Gabriel just itch and seethe for a fight or to swing his swords again.
The Ferryman dare I say it, likes the attention and company the two provide while they fix their ship. And they're almost thankful that they lost the entire library full of hand written fanfics by themselves of them and Gabriel. That's one thing they're thankful for.
Gabriel loves how humble the Ferryman is about it all. "It was just a boat, nothing too serious." Taking time off from the ship building to make something for the two while V1 feeds off of Gabriel, since the Ferryman can't provide all much blood. And V1 as well for being so much more caring and careful with the Ferryman specifically. A close person to him. He's not jealous surprisingly, he's actually glad that they're treating the Ferryman so caringly.
I'll probably add to this post whenever I have the brain worms to work out more headcannons.
Freaky ahh Gabriel: I really need you to lock tf in and match my freak else I'm ripping your circuitry out.
V1 just struggling: [GIVE ME A MINUTE HOE, DAM. CAN'T HAVE A MINUTE OF PEACE AND PREPEARE]
one of my favorite silly headcanons is +ULTRAKINKY gabriel and normal ass vanilla v1.
gabriel like: (actively bouncing and moaning on it) i need you to literally rip my organs out. or like. i need you to pin me down by my little bee wings. we need to repopulate the hive.
and v1 just like. [😥]

Sisyphus the only one liking the misery party
I love how as we learn more about the Ultrakill lore it becomes increasingly clear that absolutely nobody is having a good time with the ongoing events
Except for Sisyphus, Sisyphus is having a fucking blast
