''[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/57253/Belphegor Belphegor]''
* Recommended by [[Tropers/loracarol|loracarol]]
* Gen pairings when any, occasionally canon like Superman/Lois. Mostly focuses on Flash/friendships, though not always.
* She has four stories for the DCAU, and three that focus mainly on the Flash, and his Rogues gallery; however she had an excellent drabble fic that has amazing stories in it as well.

''[http://mithen.livejournal.com/ Mithen]''
* Recommended by [[Tropers/BANKERBAX|BANKERBAX]]
* ''Parings'' Mostly Superman/Batman Clark/Bruce slash.
* Mithen's stories are well written, well thought out and well worth reading. She has several stories taking place in detailed [[A Us]] she created herself. Even if Clark/Bruce isn't your thing you could appreciate the writing!

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3491243/1/Respect_is_Earned Respect is Earned]'' by Mists
* Recommended by [[Tropers/loracarol|loracarol]]
* ''Pairing(s)'': Mostly a [[Gen Fic]] with some Bats/Diana elements. (NO Bats/Flash Slash. There is no Slash in this story).
* ''Synopsis'': [[The Flash]] has been injured. Unfortunately, it was decided that he would stay at Bat's place until he was healed. Will he survive? Will Batman? And what about Alfred's warnings on Bats cooking? Will Bats learn an important lesson from Flash- or will he just ignore everything Flash stands for to continue being emo? (Better than I can explain it! Really!)
Line 50:
* ''Synopsis'': In The Greatest Story Never Told, Booster Gold saved the world, only for no one to learn the truth...or so we were led to think. Taking place between Greatest and Dark Heart, learn how Booster went from Crowd Control to True Hero.
* ''Comments'': A fanmade sequel to [[The Greatest Story Never Told]] that just has to be read by anyone who is a fan of the DCAU. How good is it? This troper likes it, and she isn't even a DCAU fan. Perhaps the ''best'' fanfic starring Booster Gold that has ever been written.
** [[Your Mileage May Vary]] on this fic. The author does tend to paint the authority figures on the Justice League in rather negative light, and whether this is good or bad is up to you. The story is about the Justice League Founders realizing that ''they'' were wrong to reprimand Booster for abandoning his crowd control job while everyone else was fighting Mordru. Booster's culpability, and the fact that he has alot of behavioral issues he needs to correct, are ignored or brushed aside. (Though again, [[Your Mileage May Vary]]). At least, that's this troperstroper's opinion (and seconded by [[Tropers/Loracarol|Loracarol]]). If you really like Booster Gold, then this is DEFINITELY the fic for you. If you don't, well... I'll say it for the third time [[Your Mileage May Vary]].

* ''Pairings'': Batman/Wonder Woman
* ''Synopsis'': Batman begrudingly agrees to allow [[The Flash]] to decorate the Watchtower for Christmas. The result is horrifying and Bruce is quickly running out of patience. Wonder Woman decides to make it a little easier on him.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2360362/1/Misc_Mistakes_Misunderstandings_Misconceptions Misc Mistakes, Misunderstandings, & Misconceptions]'' by Aurora0628
* Recommended by [[Tropers/Kyoko|Kyoko]]
* ''Pairing(s)'': Batman/Wonder Woman, Superman/Lois Lane, Batman/Catwoman, and maybe Superman/Wonder Woman if you squint
* ''Synopsis'': Wonder Woman wants Batman. Batman wants no one. The rest of the world wants Wonder Woman to end up with Superman. Basically, it's a humorous telling of how Diana tries to develop a relationship with Bruce despite the fact that everyone in the world seems to think she is more than [[Just Friends]] with Superman.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4144789/1/Bulletproof_Love Bulletproof Love]'' by perch
* ''Recommended'' by [[Tropers/Cedarleaf|Cedarleaf]]

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3925923/1/bYears_b_bAfter_b Years After]'' by Patricia de Lioncourt
* ''Recommended'' by [[Tropers/Much Ado About Nonny|Much Ado About Nonny]]
* ''Pairings'': Batman/Harley Quinn (no, don't leave yet...), Poison Ivy/ {{spoiler|Clayface}}
* ''Synopsis'': The year is 2012, and things in Gotham are a little different. Batman is no longer needed, and his Rogues' Gallery mostly all come to sanity. But when a new force threatens to bring back the criminals, will the Dark Knight reemerge?
* ''Comments'': Very well done in this troper's book. The style is creative, and the writer is realistic about the Rogues' ''en masse'' [[Heel Face Turn]]. A bit optimistic for my tastes at some points, though it's nothing a good flashback [[Character Development]] can't fix. Unfortunately seems to be dead at five chapters...though the writer is working on multiple other fics simaltaneously, so there is a slight chance she might get back to it.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3096336/1/ Hope is a Thing With Leather]''
* Recommended by [[Tropers/Kyoko|Kyoko]]
* ''Pairings'': Terry/Max
* ''Synopsis'': ''"They've been dancing around this unnamed space for years."'' A look into how Terry and Max's relationship in regards to crime-fighting progresses over time. Things don't always stay so professional when you're all each other has in the world.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5821246/3/Prismacolor_Shadows Prismacolor Shadows]'' by Neo Nails
* ''Recommended'' by [[Tropers/Kyoko|Kyoko]]
* ''Pairings'': Mainly Terry/Max, but some Terry/Dana.

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6500925/1/ Sleep]'' by DJRabidPunk

* ''Synopsis'': Max likes Terry when he's sleep-deprived and pretty.
* ''Pairing'': Slight Terry/Max.
Line 172:
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3568944/1/The_bLaughing_b_bFox_b The Laughing Fox]'' by Lord Drafon Claw
* Recommended [[Tropers/by Kereea|Kereea]]
* ''Synopsis'': An insane crossover between Justice League and Naruto where the young Naruto grows up under the care of The Joker and Harley Quinn who move to Konoha when he's five and become the Uzumaki Clan with the Joker becoming a top interrogator.
* ''Comments'': This fic never stops the laughter, though it does delve into the darker sides of the Joker and Naruto by extension, it still never stops being funny. The Joker is simply a riot, and becomes a very powerful ninja along with Harley and Naruto with the use of fish, squirting flowers, slapstick, and pure insanity. The author admits in the summary that it is not to be taken too seriously, so some suspension of disbelief is warranted for certain scenes (like Naruto fighting Kiba in the preliminaires).
** [[Tropers/Loracarol|Comment #2]]: Though a good story, true, and suspending your disbelief ''is'' neccesary to read this book, YMMV on the author's treatment of {{spoiler|basically all the DCAU's 'good guys'}}. Maybe not the author's intention, but the Joker's got on a [[Draco in Leather Pants|new pair of pants]] when compared to the spoilerd event-type thingy that [[Your Mileage May Vary|could rub people the wrong way.]] The rest is pretty good, however.
