Summary
What is going on?
It didn’t take her long to find out. Her former quarters of the Gotham Public Library — untouched and sealed since she went ‘missing’ — were open, and there were people inside.
Hmm, a young man and his older manservant. Who, what, and why are they here? And what are they doing? Oh, this was new and interesting. She was all for new and interesting because, frankly, being dead was beyond boring.

“I have time.”
Tim does not, in fact, have time.
But it’s Nightwing who is calling. What’s he going to do—say no? Preposterous. That's a crime in and of itself. Tim would rather swallow nails and kiss his mother goodnight than say no to Dick Grayson. “How can I help you, Nightwing?”

or, when tim is three people at the same time, jebaits the bats into joining their family twice, and might be accidentally running the city as an emergency hotline operator. not necessarily in that order. -

Summary
Tony Stark went missing after Civil War, but nobody cared enough to go searching for him, all believing that he just needed some time on his own to pout. Meanwhile he has been horribly experimented on, and transformed into something other than human.
When he escapes, he finds himself running into three children who seem to be just as lost as him, just as hunted, just as afraid. He remembers then, and he knows he has to protect them.
Now, Tony Stark, Cooper, Lila, and Nathaniel Barton must survive the dangers that surround and chase after them while they desperately try and find the loved ones they miss so much.

Summary
The shape moves like an oil slick, all serpentine grace as it lightly pushes off from the building it's perched on, big wings tucking in close and body twisting like a cat’s to land on feet and wing-hands on the street below, facing Jason. For one moment they’re eye-to-electric-blue-eye- and then the wyvern pushes up and snaps its wings open again with a sound like a thunderclap. It leaps into the air, beating its wings once, twice, already above the rooftops and gaining altitude fast.
“Wait,” Jason croaks, then yells “wait,” but the wyvern is gone, wingbeats muffled by distance, blue flickers of static trailing through the air from its wingtips and tail. Jason stares up after it and aches to spread his own wings and follow it into the sky.

Summary
AU tag to Chained. The shadows are not imaginary - Tony remembers how they descended on him in Lane Danielson's cabin. How they held him down, weighed his limbs with chains, stopped up his mouth after drinking that whiskey. He can't wash it off. Can't stop seeing the glint of the knife out of the corner of his eye. All he wants is to get back to normal. Get back to the head slaps and Kate's snark and Abby's loud music. But nothing is right and he's getting it all wrong.
