With Bruce Wayne as a high profile play boy and billion year while Lois Lane is a reporter, her work has Lois approach Bruce for a story.

Fanon

Most often they are portrayed as a stepping stone to their regular endgame romances, or as a past relationship. Some prefer to have them as friends, due to their own connections to Superman and the fact that their sons are best friends.

On AO3, BatLane is the sixth most written ship for Lois. There are currently seventy written works.

= JesterBells =  JesterBells is the het ship between Clopin from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Harley Quinn.

Fanon
While not a famous ship, the shipping of Clopin and Harley Quinn has a small but very dedicated fanbase—one of the mains reasons that fans love JesterBells is because Clopin, for all his craziness, would never abuse Harley like the Joker does and would treat her with all the love and respect that she deserves.

Aside from Clopin treating Harley way better than the Joker does, another reason that people like this ship is because, in many ways, Clopin and Harley are quite similar to each other.
 * 1.) They're both performing types.
 * 2.) Both are "funloving, flipping, cartwheeling crazies" (as the creator of the ship described it).
 * 3.) Despite their craziness and straight-up criminal tendencies (especially in Harley's case), there are people that they genuinely love and care about and, as previously mentioned, Clopin would never hurt Harley like the Joker does.

Post-Crisis, they were never married (thus Shayera goes by her maiden name "Thal"), but did had strong feelings for each other. Though any further romance between them came to an end when Katar was banished into limbo due to being possessed by a "hawk god" creature, as well as being driven insane by memories of predecessor Carter Hall's past lives.

Moments

 * In The Dark Knight Strikes Again (sequel to The Dark Knight Returns), the Hols tried to return to Thanagar to flee from Lex Luthor's military dictatorship, only to crash in the rainforest of Costa Rica.

=TalJay= TalJay is the het ship between Talia al Ghul and Jason Todd

Canon
When Jason was killed by the Joker, Talia got her hands on Jason's body and used her father's Lazarus Pit to bring him back to life, without the Demon Head's consent. She kept her eyes on Jason after words while training him in ways that would have Jason embrace the killer within him. Jason had trusted Talia as an ally, until he returned to Batman's side and decided to lessen his number of kills.

Death in the Family
Two of the endings in this interaction film has Jason running into Talia. Along with Jason learning about Talia through a file Bruce had on her, that read like a romance novel in his opinion.

the version of both Jason and Bruce surviving the blast that killed him in the original story, a broken Jason had became a social killer who caught Talia's attention. On the night Jason removed the bandages around his face and revealed his scars, Talia got rid of the explosives Jason set to make a quick get away, before she approached him. So she can offer Jason a spot in the League, and to make sure he says yes Talia brought her infant son with her. Jason was shock by Damian's existence and that Talia wants him to help her raise her son, his baby brother, in Bruce's place. Talia saying the right things that Jason needed to hear, he agreed. So he could secretly raise Damian as a weapon that would destroy the League of Assassins and the Batfamily from within.

The other version of Jason encountering Talia comes from the choices of Bruce dying in Jason's place, him becoming the Red Hood and decided weather or not to kill Joker. Jason being cast out of the Batfamily and the number of lives he took in order to lure Joker out, Talia approached him with the offer to join the League. She revealed to him that she had brought Batman back to life and that the two of them could work together again. Jason, however, doesn't want to keep killing and feels ashamed of what he did. That is why one of the options are of Jason dying beside Batman and Talia, after discovering the bomb in Batman's hand, or have him saving Bruce from her.

Gotham Knights
After Bruce died in a battle with Ra's al Ghul, Jason was worried that his mentor's killer would be placed in a Lazarus Pit again, and wants to keep that from happening. When Red Hood ran into Talia at the morgue, where he found her standing before her father's body, the second Robin was surprised by her turning the Demon Head's body into ash. Knowing that the League of Assassins won't be able to bring him again without his body. Jason tried to ask Talia why her father went after Bruce, but she threw the dagger she stabbed Ra's with at him and then disappeared by smoke bomb. Jason wasn't happy with her ninja stunt and pulled out the knife, before continuing what he originally came to do. Along with Jason and the other Knights wanting to find Talia again.

When Red Hood came across her again, Talia informed him that he is no longer with the League when she destroyed her father's body. Jason had trouble believing Talia, knowing that she is up to something and didn't like the way she mentioned Bruce. Before Talia left she asked Jason why he was at the morgue, not wanting to give Talia any facts he simply tells her that it was of an on going investigation.

Fanon
The attention on this rare DC ship came from Talia watching over Jason after he was brought back to life, through the use of her father's Lazarus Pit. That time was what got a few people to wonder if Damian was really Jason's son than Bruce's and even though the two did hook up in the New Earth reboot, BruDami fans have dismissed this theory. Along with knowing that Damian wouldn't want one of his adopted brothers for a step-father. Fans of the Gotham Knights game have noticed that the Red Hood interactions with Talia have elements of history in Jason's words to her, than it does with the other Knights.

Trivia

 * The Young Justice series currently has Jason with the League of Assassins and has been seen with Talia, while her son is in her arms. Like she wants to keep both Jason and Damian close to her side.
