    Summary

    Then he took a deep breath and he changed. He ironed out every fold in his posture and his face until he looked like Superman again. His shoulders were broad, his gaze was confident, and his smile showed no sign of embarrassment or fear.

    It’s genuinely uncomfortable to watch.

    Especially since Bruce knows that change. He’s seen it in the mirror before entering parties or nightclubs. He’s always referred to it, internally, as 'putting on my better face.' The façade is his least favourite part of the day, ranking just below 'getting punched by supervillains.'

    The idea that Superman is just Kal's better face, that would explain a lot.

    It would also mean Bruce isn't alone.

    Summary

    In her senior year, Wednesday learns that the consequences of her actions were more far-reaching than she expected her idea of justice would land. Her life continues to take unexpected turns with the reconstruction of the Outcast world as she caused it to implode.

    Enid experiences all the strength that real family can provide her as she prepares to stand up to the the werewolf council and has career-building opportunities coming her way. After a summer focused on the Addams family, the Nightshades are receiving their university acceptance letters or preparing for their next steps in life, Pugsley is managing to score a 4.0 and woo half the girls on Nevermore’s campus, and Larissa Weems is taking on her new role in leadership to create balance for Outcasts at large.

    It seems like everyone else is getting ahead and making plans for their future, while Wednesday’s visions of it make her wonder what karma has in store for her.

    Heavy focus on Wednesday and Enid’s relationship, the Addams Family, mental health, and exploring concepts of community while begrudgingly becoming a leader of one in the sequel to Chaos for the Fly.

    Summary


    “Wednesday, you are so new to love’s torturous sting. It simply takes time to get used to the poison, my darling. You have to build up a tolerance for it. Then – you’ll start to wonder how you ever lived without it.”

     
    Enid accidentally summons a malevolent spirit in an attempt to communicate with her wolf, and somehow – that is not Wednesday’s biggest problem upon the return to Nevermore. With a raging suspicion that Principal Weems was not actually murdered and decades-old conspiracies about Outcasts beginning to come to light, Wednesday starts to unravel her latest mystery while trying not to come undone herself. As emerging powers cause her to manifest physical symptoms, Wednesday has to learn to rely on those around her if she is going to grow as a Raven.

    Wednesday-centric, ultra slow-burn Wenclair, moving forward in an organic relationship, building from roommates to best friends to more. Picking up on plot points from S1 with some canon divergence, Wednesday develops not only new abilities, but emotions and friendships as she examines her life through her new lens of Nevermore.

    Summary

    Dean’s sitting at the kitchen table with Sam when his phone rings. Jody’s name flashes across the screen and he considers not picking up, but Sam’s there, and he’d start asking questions if he left the call alone. It’s not like Dean doesn’t want to talk to Jody, it's just that he can’t bear talking to anyone these days.

    “Hi, Jody,” Sam says.

    “Howdy, boys.” She greets them and begins talking about a case she’s asking them to take over. Dean doubts they will, Sam hasn’t let him pick up a gun or knife in months, not since their last hunt.

    Jody’s voice cuts through the phone. “Alright, if you boys don’t wanna take the case, I’ll see if Castiel will, but I think he’s helping Claire in Colorado–”

    Dean doesn’t hear a damn thing after that, and by the looks of it, Sam doesn’t either. For the first time in days, Dean opens his mouth and speaks. “Cas is alive?”

    Jody’s voice is quiet on the other end. “He didn’t tell you?”

     

    Cas is alive, and Dean is figuring out what he should do about that when they learn Cas's accidental jailbreak broke The Empty, letting out most of its occupants. Now that every villain they have ever fought is back, Team Free Will 3.0 has their work cut out for them.

    Summary

    I began writing Reprise in November 2015, after having a hankering for a good time travel AU and then being unable to find one that fit my niche craving. I wrote chapters 1 through 3 as a casual experiment, a kind of character study of Ben Kenobi.

    Half a million words and nearly a decade later, here we are.

    The series consists of four main parts:
    Reprise I
    Reprise II
    Reprise III
    Reprise IV
    Reprise V (COMING SOON)

    As well as a few supplementary entries:
    The Visionary (fanart)
    The Pragmatist (fanart)
    Still Here (oneshot, set between Reprise III and Reprise IV but has spoilers for Reprise IV)

    Have fun reading!
