    Summary

    Vokara speaks before he can. “I didn’t come here for your permission. I don’t need it. I am a Master Healer, and it is my right to take an apprentice.”

    “And you want Obi-Wan Kenobi?” Mace Windu asks.

    “Yes,” Vokara answers.

     

    Or, Obi-Wan is wanted, becomes a healer, and this changes everything.

    Summary

    For a theory to be formed, three things must happen: careful observation, hypothesis development, and testing and confirmation through experimentation.

    Dinah Lance formulates a theory.

    (or, the one where Bruce keeps covering for Clark’s Kryptonian biology/enhanced senses by immediately turning and going for Hal Jordan’s throat. it’s surprisingly effective)

    Summary

    “You think…” Obi-Wan’s tongue is heavy in his mouth. He fumbles for words for the first time in recent memory. “You think that I would abandon a child in the middle of a warzone?”

    Anakin raises his chin. A silent challenge. “Haven’t you?”

    “And this warzone,” Obi-wan says, because he has to be sure. “Did you hear where exactly–”

    “Melida Daan.”

     

    Or: Rumours fly about a Jedi Master abandoning a Padawan on a war-torn planet. No one knows exactly where the rumour began, but they do know this: somehow, Obi-Wan Kenobi is involved.

    (Written for the Bad Things Happen Bingo. Prompt: Misunderstanding)

    Summary

    “Why did you think I wouldn’t like you for being gay?” Steve asks gently.

    “You’re Captain America.” Eli’s got his teeth clenched and is resolutely looking ahead. “You stand for truth and justice and the American way. You stand for American morals. You stand for…” he shrugs awkwardly. “Not people like me.”

    Steve blows the air out of his cheeks slowly, trying to figure out how to keep the anger out of his voice so Eli doesn’t think it’s at him.

    Or, Steve comes to terms with his new world, and gains some children in the process.

    Summary

    Much to Elias’ dismay, Jon doesn’t actually want to be an Archivist.

    Also… well, as Georgie put it: “There are only two situations where you’d say someone ‘died in the line of duty’: if they were actually a literal soldier, or else if you’re a serial killer and you’re not actually that committed to pretending you didn’t kill them. Unless Gertrude died in a top-secret war that’s going on in the basement of the Magnus Institute, I see only one option here.”

    Jon glared, but Georgie shrugged. “Sorry, Jon, I just call it like I see it. Your boss is a serial killer and you’re next on his hit list. Probably best not to take his creepy cursed job position.”

    ~

    In which Jon and Georgie are flatmates, the archives crew rock their dysfunction to the fullest, and the only thing that resembles canon is the way absolutely no one is cishet.

    Summary

    Harley had never been to Fawcett City in her life, but she had heard that it was basically as different from Gotham as a city could possibly be. Bright. Cheery. Happy. Friendly. Safe.

    It was a place where, with any luck, she could ride out her pregnancy in secret and find a proper home for the kid afterwards.

    Meeting the resident superhero and befriending the sweet kid from across the hall just made things more interesting.

    Summary

    “We’re collecting all the isms tonight,” Jason announces.

    To entertain themselves at a gala, the Batkids play bingo and a drinking game out of microaggressions. One sip for a basic, ignorant comment. Two sips for an underhanded insult. Three sips for multiple isms, and chug the glass if someone starts a fight.

    As the only one legally old enough to drink, Dick is gonna end up wasted by the end of the night. Barbara is gleefully keeping track of their bingo sheets from afar. Bruce did not sign up for this.

    Summary

    “What do you mean?” Sam demands, tone hushed so as not to attract attention (Bucky’s suddenly glad Sarah sent the kids off already) but just as adamant as always. “You didn’t eat food for seventy years? Even for a super soldier, that’s—that’d kill you.”
    Bucky blinks. Mentally goes back through the course of their conversation, reeling just a little. “Uh,” he says, ever-eloquent. Looks to Sarah for help, and finds she’s leaned in, elbows on the table, equally interested in his answer. “Not—I didn’t eat food, per se.”
    He thinks of the tubes, the drips, the liquids. The—the rats, in the early days. Decides he probably shouldn’t go on, but Sam hasn’t dropped the subject and doesn’t look like he’s going to. There’s this strange, stormy look on his face, one Bucky’s only seen once, in that room with Selby and Zemo.

    //

    the Wilsons (and, by extension, all citizens of Delacroix) find out about Bucky’s diet when he was with HYDRA.

    Summary

    In another universe, Stephanie Brown's plans to kill her father aren't interrupted by Batman. Which means nobody stops her from tripping and falling headlong into running her own gang, and then a little more intentionally rising to the top of the underworld. Meanwhile, seeing as Bruce only has one kid who actually wants to carry on the good name, Cassandra Cain takes over as the Batman of Gotham's future.

    This would be a fine turn of events if it weren't for the fact that they've been dating on-and-off for ten years.

    Summary

    In hindsight, Dick shouldn’t have begun impersonating Bruce for Justice League meetings.

    Yes, Bruce had given Dick permission to go in his place as a proxy, but really, it was his fault for assuming that Dick was going to attend as Nightwing. But then Jason found out, and then Tim joined in, then Steph, Cass and Damian, but hell, what else was he supposed to do? Leave them out of the most elaborate hoax in Robin history?

    At first it was hilarious, one-upping the core members of the JL, but it’s been years and they’re all in too deep now.

    Summary

    Olivia Draper had been a good idea at first. She could pass for older than Tim could pull off while masculine and women really could get into places easier if they had a pretty face. With makeup and some stylish-yet-inexpensive clothes, Olivia could pull off most undercover ops. She was Tim’s Matches Malone.

    Then Hood had shown up on the scene.
    -----------------------------------
    When Jason met Olivia, he hadn't intended to pull a Bruce and take the scrappy teen informant under his wing. She just kept showing up where he was doing business. He had no other choice than to keep an eye on her. And kit her out with armor so she wouldn't accidentally get shot. And make sure she was being treated fairly by her mysterious boss.

    And, okay, maybe become her big brother.

    Summary

    Word traveled fast in Crime Alley.

    It became yet another Alley-kid code word. If someone said they were telling Mama, that meant Jason Todd would get an earful while he planned out his next drug bust. If someone said Mama’s paying for dinner, it meant a free meal to any kid who showed up to the diner that day.

    (or: "a toddler who was being saved by the red hood called him "mama" once and now crime alley kids will refer to him as mama all. the. time.")

    Summary

    Months after Callaghan's downfall, Hiro receives a surprise in the mail: a special invitation to this year's Stark Expo. With Fred for company, he leaves the protection of the city temporarily in the hands of the rest of the team and flies across the country to meet the man with twice the brains and bank account of Alistair Krei and several times the infamy.

    But of course, it can't be that simple, can it? Really, after how his last expo went, he should have seen this coming.

    Summary

    Several days passed, and that’s when she met Will Graham for the first time. He stormed into her shop, wild curls blowing in the cold wind. His jaw was set tightly, anger burning hot in his eyes. “Can- can I help you?”
    “Yeah,” he drawled. “I need an arrangement that says, ‘Fuck you, I hope you fucking die in a fire.’ You have flowers that will say that?”
    She blinked at him, completely at a loss. “Uh. Well, yes? In a way, yes.”
    “I want them to know I hate them. I don’t forgive them. That the light of friendship won’t touch us for a thousand years. I want... I want him to know that he’s the fucking worst.”

    Penny owns a flower shop in Baltimore. She gets caught in the middle of Hannibal and Will's bullshit, and helps navigate them towards a possible reconciliation.
