Summary
Dick has never felt pain as striking as this. He’s kept going after everything, after all of it, because people depended on him. Damian and Tim looked up to him, he was Jason’s anchor, Duke, Steph and Cass relied on him and his guidance, his kindness. Babs needed a shoulder to lean on. Bruce needed his Robin, his Nightwing. Alfred needed his grandson. Then all of it was gone. They were all gone. Gotham was in shambles, he had funerals to plan, a league of heroes to uphold, a business to make decisions for.
He was still needed, but now? He wasn’t wanted. When he closes his eyes at night, he wishes he’d wake up anywhere else than the empty pit of a manor he resided in. What he wasn't expecting was his wish to come true…
---
or: after the rest of the bat clan die to the Joker in Gotham, Dick wakes up in a universe where Dick Grayson never existed, and superheroes weren't possible. A Bruce Wayne who's only a man, a father, finds him.

Summary
Dean Winchester hadn’t planned on enjoying his high school reunion. He definitely hadn’t planned on running into Castiel Novak—the gorgeous Russian exchange student he’d been stupidly, hopelessly into at eighteen.
Ten years later, Castiel’s still got the accent, the stare, and now… a smile that makes Dean think about things they really didn’t teach in high school.
What should’ve been a quick “hi, how’ve you been” turns into hours of lingering touches, loaded glances, and Dean realizing that some crushes don’t fade—they just get hotter. By the end of the night, Dean knows two things for sure: he’s not letting Castiel disappear again, and this reunion’s going to be a lot more memorable than the yearbook committee ever planned.

Summary
For some of us, it’s easy, close your eyes, take a breath, and jump. For others, it takes an entire bottle of whiskey, a slow, unreliable internet connection, and years of self-induced isolation on a picturesque mountainside to do what they have to do. What they need to do. Many years after losing his own pack, his family, an act he blames himself for, Alpha-Were Castiel is skilled at not giving himself even the smallest of pleasures, including that of a pack. An alpha needs a pack. It’s written into their DNA. It’s so much more than just having a mate. It’s the pack bonds that make an alpha whole, and the longer Castiel denies himself one, the more he loses of his humanity.
When a drunken, desperate act brings a beautiful, vibrant omega to his doorstep with a disastrous winter storm nipping at his heels, Castiel knows he does not deserve the gift. Sending Dean back down the mountain would be certain death for the young were, but allowing him to stay will undoubtedly change Castiel’s life forever. Maybe it’s time for Castiel to leave his darkness in the past, where it belongs. With Dean standing next to him on the precipice, there’s nothing left for Castiel to do but close his eyes, take a breath, and leap.

"If you keep eating those, you'll get even fatter," Castiel said with a big smile.
Dean blinked and swallowed the rinds in his mouth. He balled up the bag of chips suddenly and stood up, tightening his robe. He threw the bag of chips at the empty waste basket by the door and missed.
"Sorry, Cas, didn't realize you were keepin' tabs like that," Dean said.

Summary
“You believe you have the better judgment?” You replied hotly, dropping your hand and your act of nonchalance as you whirled around, leaning your back on the window to face him. “You disregard my rank that easily?”
Mr Grayson looked oddly pleased when he rebutted, “As your first officer, I prioritise my captain's life over her rank.”
Or, it was his job to call you out when he deemed it necessary. That didn't mean you had to like it.

Summary
"Somewhere in the back of his mind, Dick realized that this wasn’t really the most comfortable position he’d ever been in.
Sitting on a very well-loved couch with four other adults wasn’t exactly ideal, especially when said adults had made it their goal to be as close as physically possible. The couch felt so much smaller, now, too. It used to be the perfect size for five barely-teenagers to curl up together and bask in each other’s warmth. A decade ago, Dick might’ve even complained that it was too big, but now, as Dick batted Wally’s hand away from his face, he thought otherwise."
or:
it had been a long time since dick grayson was a teenager, eager to prove himself to the rest of the world.
but, some things never change.

Summary

- Stop blaming yourself
- Identify triggers for flashbacks and dreams (jasmine, rain, sleeping on my back)
- Find calming strategies that work for you (counting breaths, identifying things in the present, running)
- Stop dissociating (Tim will feel insecure if you zone out again in the middle of his baby-detective talks)
- Stop isolating yourself
- Stop feeling guilty about everything (everyone is alive, everyone is happy. You’re not poisonous.)
- Take care of your body (eat, dammit. Alfred will kill you)

Summary
Dean Winchester has always known he wasn’t what his parents wanted. Cast out for being an Omega — and worse, for daring to dream of college and freedom — he’s left scraping by on his own, one bad job away from collapse.
When his best friend Charlie introduces him to the Omega Café, Dean steps into a world built on safety, contracts, and the chance to find something more. A steady income. A place to belong. Maybe even a bondmate who sees him for who he truly is.
But nothing about Dean’s life has ever come easy. Between bullying, harassment, and the ghosts of abandonment, it will take courage — and the stubborn hope of his found family — to believe he’s worth loving.

Summary
Stephanie did not move—just stared, waiting. The woman's face was clearer, now, captured in a gap of leaves. It wasn’t familiar, but there was something in Stephanie that thrummed with a knowledge. Of eyes that should have been kinder, should have been younger, should have been sharper, should have been a lighter shade of blue.
The woman hummed. “Very well. May I know your name? I am afraid we do not get many visitors here, and my hospitality has suffered for it. Would you share with me what to call you?”
“Stephanie,” she said after a long moment, like an offering.
Wrong, wrong, wrong. You are not where you once were. You are not who you once were.
The woman smiled, extending a careful, steady hand and gently correcting Stephanie’s grip to clasp her forearm. They were almost of an eye, like this. “Well met, Stephanie. I am Hippolyta of Themyscira. Welcome.”
________________
Stephanie Brown dies and wakes up on Themyscira. She’s got around 2000 years to finagle her way back to the World of Men. She’s worked with worse.
