    Summary

    "came back from the brink of death
    never going down easy, we're swinging on as long as we live
    no pain, no gain, that's the game and that's way we play, so take my hand and we'll take it away
    "

    The Yokai Slayer rose slowly, breathing heavily. The audience watched with bated breath—Leo watched with bated breath.

    He slipped the mask down under his chin, revealing fur tinted black around his nose.

    The rabbit raised his sword high in a fist pump, and exploding doesn’t even begin to describe how wild the yokai in the stands went at his victorious grin.

    ...

    “Who…who was that?” he could feel his mouth move and vocal chords buzz, head whipping toward Big Mama, who seemed entirely too amused.

    “Our newest potential champion. Impressive, isn’t he? His looks are deceiving, I admit it! But Karasu-Tengu trained him well,” she mused.

    “Usagi Yuichi is not one to be trifled with,” Big Mama said with that unsettling smile, “There is a reason why he is the Yokai Slayer, after all,”

    Summary

    He sighs from where he’s prone, arms akimbo, and roof gravel digging into his spine. “I lost my job. My… other job. The one that actually pays the bills.”

    He doesn’t want to dwell on why he’s telling Deadpool of all people. Surely it has nothing to do with his desperate lack of friends. MJ is in California chasing her dreams, Harry’s undergoing treatment for his mental health and isn’t allowed visitors (not that it matters since they blacklisted Peter after last time), and Gwen… Well.

    And it’s not like he can talk to Aunt May without her worrying about him starving to death under a bridge or something so… Deadpool it is. Man, when did his life get this pathetic?

    OR: The one where Peter and Wade are literal soulmates but don't realize it for literal years because they're literal idiots.

    Summary

    They drove for three miles in silence before Vernon spoke up.

    " So your brothers are turtles?"

    " Yeah."

    " And that picture on your phone of the rat guy and the little green guys-- isn't from your childhood passion for monster movie make-up?"

    " No."

    " Are you really a ninja?"

    " Yes."

    Vernon swallowed thickly, then jerked his head in something of a nod once.

    " Cool."

    Summary

    Tim Drake is eleven years old when he’s grabbed off the streets of Bristol while he’s on his way home. It will be okay, he tells himself: they’ll call his parents, and they’ll pay the ransom, and he’ll get to go home.

    There are pictures of Batman and Robin on the camera he was carrying. A lot of pictures.

    They don’t call his parents. They call Black Mask.

    -
    or: the one where Black Mask kidnaps Tim and tries to groom him into a ruthless heir, and Tim tries to figure out how to destroy him from the inside out.

    General warnings tagged, anything not covered by those is in end-of-chapter notes to avoid spoilers.

    Summary

    One hundred years ago, the head of the Heavenly Demon was severed from his body, marking the end of a short, yet grotesque war. This also indicated the start of Mount Hua's steady downfall, which would continue for six more generations.

    At least, that's how it should've been. But unlike the history that very few know, not everyone died on that mountain.

    -

    (Or: Tangcheong survives many years after the war and builds Mount Hua back up. It wasn't as humorous as you'd think.)
