Summary
“I actually died,” Jason interjected, raising his eyebrows. “So I win the scar competition.”
“You don’t actually have any scars from that, though,” Dick pointed out, gesturing with his water glass. “The pit healed all of them.”
“I have emotional scars.”
Tim rolled his eyes. “Oh, join the fucking club.”
(inside an old, hole-in-the-wall dive bar somewhere in Kansas, the batkids compare scars)

IF EVERYTHING IS TEMPORARY (I WILL BEAR THE UNBEARABLE). by orpheusaki
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
03 Mar 2023
Tags
Summary
"Father. Do not panic. I have everything under control."
Bruce immediately begins to panic, because Damian should know his father would never panic, so whatever has happened, whatever Damian claims he has under control, is undoubtedly going to make Bruce panic. Like right now. He's panicking.
But just as Bruce pushes himself to sit up on the bed, with great difficulty due to the bandages across his stomach, eyes darting over Damian to find any injuries —
Thomas Wayne, age thirty, walks through his bedroom door.
(Or; a ten step guide of things not to do when you're sent to the past, by Bruce Wayne.)

They fuck you up, your mum and dad. (—They may not mean to, but they do. ) by llamallamaduck
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
01 Mar 2023
Tags
Summary
Jason is having a relatively smooth, uneventful evening. True, he’s actively fantasising about how he will tear Wójcik into itty-bitty pieces, but that’s about as peaceful as it gets in this hell-pit. He is in no way expecting Talia to come marching in. Then, when she proceeds to bury three knives into Wójcik and shoot him twice in the head, he knows shit’s about to get coconuts.
He is still sitting in lotus position, mouth ajar, when she makes a sharp, imperious gesture in his direction.
“Come. Time for learning has run out.”

Summary
“Look, believe it or not, I had no intention of killing the Vampiric Council when I came here,” declares Nadja, sitting alone on the couch. “But Guillermo and I arrived at the first council meeting and did the whole, you know, the whole thing, the first day thing. Introductions and all that, yes hello wonderful to meet you, yes this is my bodyguard, yes he has slaughtered a tremendous number of our kind”--she flaps her hand absently--“normal first day things, you know? It was fine.” She pauses. “It got really fucking weird on the second day.”
Or:
Nadja and Guillermo seize control of vampiric politics, puppeteer world powers, and have the hottest of hot girl summers.
Unfortunately, they also really miss the stupid assholes they're in love with. With no way left to find them, they have no choice but to consult an Archivist.

Summary
“I wish you wouldn’t do this,” Lalwen complained in greeting. “Two brothers I have already lost, blindly charging that place. Must you add a third to my tally?”
“Maybe,” Finarfin said bluntly. It was still gentler than the truth on his tongue: It’s my turn.
(Or: in which Finarfin is, after all, the third son in the fairy tale.)

A Paleblood Moon above the Cabin by NightmaresProphet
Fandoms: Bloodborne (Video Game), Slay the Princess (Visual Novel)
20 Jun 2024
Tags
Summary
He is a killer. A killer of men, of beasts, and of gods. He recalls fighting in many battles, winning many and losing more. He knows what it means to die over and over again, only to stand up and face death once again. Yet he was also more, even if he didn't remember, or know, why.
His eyes opened, and The Narrator spoke.
"You are on a path in the woods. And at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a princess. You're here to slay her. If you don't, it will be the end of the world."

Summary
“He’s Cangse Sanren’s child,” Jin Zixuan’s father said, tapping his fan against his palm so that he would look more like a scholar. Secretly, shamefully, Jin Zixuan thought that it didn’t really work – he just looked like one of those scoundrels that tried to pay for their meals with calligraphy instead of pennies. “Taking him in will show our strength.”
“You dare bring one of your bastard children here,” Jin Zixuan’s mother said, “and I will drown A-Xuan myself rather than let him suffer through the shame of it.”

Summary
Some time after the events at Water 7, Paulie is flailing between the bottle, the card tables and his job, stubbornly determined to never again think about the five years he wasted on a man who turned out to be a twisted government assassin and psycho pussy cat.
That's when the twisted government assassin and psycho pussy cat shows up again and beats Paulie senseless. Seems he's on a break after a mission and has decided to spend his downtime kicking the crap out of his favorite chew toy every night. What's worse is, Paulie suspects that as far as Lucci is concerned - the real Lucci, the one who's not bothering with a mask and lies anymore - this is kind of akin to making out. Paulie actually prefers the notion that Lucci is softening him up before executing him, it's easier to bear.
All Lucci says is that he's here to tidy up some loose ends. Who the fuck knows what that means...

In which, Luffy is one of Big Mom's children and yet nothing particularly changes.
