Stakeout Rhymes With Makeout by Prim_the_Amazing for batsplinters
Fandoms: Disco Elysium (Video Game)

Summary
SAVOIR FAIRE [Legendary: Failure] - Oh, you’ve got this in the fucking bag.
YOU - “Maybe we could fuck about it?” The words slip out of your mouth casually, matter of factly, like you’ve only just suggested that you should take the opportunity to rummage through someone’s mail. You hear them as you speak them, like they somehow managed to completely bypass your brain on the way out of your mouth.
-
Kim and Harry are on a stakeout. It gets pretty interesting.

Summary
Elwing's 14The Company of Elwing, orA True Tale of the Last Days of Númenor, as Never Recorded In Official Chronicles, Because While Some of the Valar Were Definitely Looking the Other Way or Even Aiding And Abetting, No One Thinks It Was All of Them, So the Truth Might Get Some People in Potentially a Lot of Trouble
(Sometimes you become a parent way too young under terrible circumstances and you're absolutely awful at it, and by the time you're far enough in therapy you can even consider trying to make amends one of your children has left the circles of the world, so all you can do for him is put together a motley crew of family/friends/enemies and try to save his people from themselves/the gods.)

Summary
Karkat's moirail meets his matesprit. It goes alright. Nothing's exploding yet, anyway. Karkat just has to translate, and mediate, and fix Dave, and keep Gamzee in line, and not flip his shit. Fucking easy. It's all under control.
--
Gamzee's moirail introduces him to his little alien flushcrush. It goes alright. Just the human's freaking out, and then Karkat's freaking out, and then when Gamzee goes to fix it it gets worse for some reason. It's not like the little squishy motherfuckers count as quadrants. So who knows what the big motherfucking deal is.
--
Dave's boyfriend brings around his other boyfriend, and Dave has an educational experience on the subject of quadrants. It goes alright. Except the guy's a handsy dick who doesn't speak basically any English and wears clown makeup. And Karkat seems to be making some kind of romance power-move at him to prove a point. And Dave's dripping blood all over his favorite pair of sweatpants.Series

Summary
The Neath can only sustain so many glorious lunatics at a time, and each of them requires a steady supply of anonymous zailors to man their dreadnoughts and brigantines, to shovel coal and man the capstan, to polish the fittings and share superstitious zee-ztories during the dog watch. And so they find them, whenever there is need, thronging at any bustling port: someone wants to sign on!
A cautionary tale of the Treachery of Breath.

“Wow,” said the information desk attendant, sincerely. “Wow, yeah, that was so completely inspirational and cool, like, seriously. I can’t even explain how much I enjoyed the experience of listening to you share your feelings while I looked up the appropriate party events timetable to meet your needs and suit your desires, like, wow. Would you like the schedule formatted for neural net download or upload to your techno-reader?”
“Could you just print it?” asked Arthur.
(The highest and most mysterious level of Kathtyx 21-C's legendary hierarchical party culture is only for lifeforms who can prove the extraordinary length and strength of their relationship. For the sake of a party, Ford and Arthur are ready to fake it till they make it.)

Summary
I’ve never encountered anything like those blades you formed during your hunt, Venom sent, carefully, cautiously.
I acquired them on a mission. There’s a lot of interesting information to be found out there. Riot’s close-range chemical messages carried strange accents of complex biomolecules Venom had never felt before. The taste was a clear indication of just how much of Riot must have been shaped by past hosts and alien genetic information from beyond the stars. Venom wanted.
Show me? it asked.

Summary
'Eleanor nodded solemnly and said "that sounds like a troubling situation" and all at once Susan was aware of the two conversations at play: one for public consumption - for her mother's benefit and convincing - and one for her, one that was all safety and belief. This was a place of belief.'
-
Her parents brought Susan to America on the rumor of a friend of a friend of a friend that there might be someone who can fix her. They just wanted their little girl back and Susan - lovely, gentle Susan - seemed the most changed by the children's time in the country and all their shared, horrible delusion.
Susan came to America on the promise of a holiday and stayed - of her own volition - because of the belief offered to her freely in a dusty little office in a poorly kept estate. She spent her days trying to figure out her role in Eleanor West's world, writing letters to those left behind an ocean away, and maybe figuring out how to mourn.

Summary
“Hey, Miles,” Mr. Wright said entirely out of the blue, midway through their manic investigation session into the financial records of M. Bezzel, Ltd, “let’s get married.”
“Hmph?” Chief Prosecutor Edgeworth didn’t even look up from the tax return he was currently examining. “Now? Don’t be ridiculous. We still have two years of receipts to sift through.”
Apollo and Prosecutor Gavin goggle as their bosses argue their way through the least-romantic proposal, engagement, and wedding they've ever witnessed. It's almost as if, to Mr. Wright and Mr. Edgeworth, wedded bliss is equivalent to a long bickering legal debate crammed in amid an ongoing investigation.

Summary
Phoenix and Maya finally clean out Mia's office. Far, far too many people help.
"Jesus, Nick, you ever heard of throwing stuff out?" Maya laughs as she throws open the window, clapping her hands over the sill to shake off the dust. She's careful about where she puts her feet, Phoenix notes, despite the casual tone. It makes for a slightly awkward stance, how she steps to avoid every square of carpet Mia's body once touched. "I'd’ve thought you got rid of all this shit years ago!"

Summary
“No, you don’t understand,” Wayne cut in, gesturing back at the abandoned warehouse at the edge of the taped-off scene. “These–kidnapping attempts–always start out the same way. Remove the clothes. Humiliate the victim. Make them feel powerless, so they’re less likely to fight back. Remove all sense of their personality so they’re more likely to comply–”
Jim tuned out his rant slightly, examining the small bats on Wayne’s boxers. Ignoring the fact that no underwear was meant to be worn that tight, the tiny decorations were almost…familiar.
“–well, guess what, kidnappers?” Wayne punctuated his point with a jab of his hand, gesturing at his underwear. “I don’t feel powerless. My personality is right here–-”

Summary
Tim curled up in a ball and shook with several, near-hyperventilating breaths. Jason clenched his hands into fists.
“Hood?” came Nightwing’s tentative check-in, “How’s everything going?”
I’m trapped under a building, he didn’t say. Tim thinks I’m going to murder him, he didn’t say. Get me out of here before I claw my own skin off, he didn’t say.
