    Summary

    When Mr Bennet dies suddenly, Longbourn passes to Mr Collins — and the Bennet ladies themselves with the new master arriving to take possession. Grief gives way to fear, and Mrs Bennet's hopes of remaining at Longbourn crumble under the quiet certainty that they can no longer call it home.

    With no son to inherit and no proposal forthcoming, the family faces disgrace, separation, and poverty—until an unexpected offer arrives from Mrs Gardiner: a modest cottage near Lambton in Derbyshire, where they might begin again.

    Uprooted from everything familiar, Elizabeth enters a new world of northern hills, new neighbours, and a certain gentleman she meets quite by chance—one who knows nothing of her circumstances, and whose reserve hides a heart she never expected to understand.

    This is a story of loss, resilience, and renewal—of sisters who refuse to be parted, a mother undone by fear, and a heroine who must rebuild her life before she can discover love.

    Sometimes, the future begins only after we let go of home.

    Summary

    The vent cover clatters to the floor, and Dick flings the knife at Croc, trusting that he's going to be a more of a threat than his goons. Croc roars in pain, or maybe just rage, and Dick scrambles toward the vent, Damian already inside, and -

    And Killer Croc grabs him by the ankle, slams him into the wood. He feels something break, and he gasps, hardly able to catch his breath. Some sort of metallic clang echoes from behind, and he thinks if Damian comes out of the vent and gets us both killed…

    or: a gate-crasher ruins the wayne charity gala in the worst way possible.

    Summary

    The boy looked so small. So small standing next to his dead parents.

    An orphan. Another one. The city has won once again.

    Batman had seen children before, children that had lost everything, especially in the flood. The Riddler's descriptions of his nights in the system would haunt the nights. Maybe it was because he hadn't come to the circus as Batman. Not as Bruce Wayne either. But this time, as he looked at the boy in his blue eyes, he couldn't hide behind the mask.

    --

    In which I, like everyone else, watched The Batman and immediately thought "someone give this man a Robin"

    Summary

    Sometimes it doesn't matter what reality is, only the perception of it. And when Dick is already questioning his place in the family, an offhanded comment from a confused photographer doesn't help in the slightest. Neither does an especially harsh dose of fear toxin.
