Summary
Bruce watched the talon move with a strange fascination. Their bodies were always unnatural and moved in ways that seemed impossible. But there was something about one that made him-- made his heart lurch. What it was though he couldn’t place. He also was busy fighting off several other assassins. Jason was cursing next to him, firing shot after shot. Red Hood, aimed to kill and for once Batman didn’t raise his voice to stop him.
The talons always got up anyways. It didn’t matter if the shot was to the head or if it merely clipped them. The effect was the same. They kept coming. Bruce felt sick as he watched bullets push their way back out of the bodies and clatter to the roof and roll into the alleys below.Bookmarked by Sipty

Summary
Call runs.
He runs and runs and runs, and he doesn’t care how much his leg is hurting, or how short of breath he is. He passes through winding paths and streams and tunnels without taking in anything about them, he doesn’t see a nymph staring at him in curiosity, only her eyes peeking out from the water of the river nearby, or the pair of dryads that scowls at him as he takes a sharp turn and almost crashes against their trees.
He runs, but he wants to run faster. He needs to be faster. He’s not running fast enough.
And so as he runs, he changes.
Or: In which this fairytale comes to an end.

Summary
Call stands outside his chamber door for a long time. It’s almost one in the morning. He’s scared someone will still be up waiting for him. He’s scared no one will be.
He doesn’t want to lose Tamara and Aaron, but if they are going to hold his being a fairy against him, then he would rather lose them.
For a moment, he considers dropping the glamour and walking in. He almost does it too, but decides it’s too much, too soon.
He takes a deep breath and opens the door.
Or:
Call has chosen to let go of a truth, but the truth is not done with him yet.

Summary
"[Alex] would find himself bloodied and bruised but relatively unharmed somewhere he could safely be found. Not retrieved, because the first time Yassen had activated his beacon he had been more than a little furious to find him still there 12 hours later."
-A Gentlemen's Agreement by Valaks
------
This is the story of those twelve hours, how they came to be, and what came after.

Summary
Although Yassen had never worked as an agent for an intelligence service, he had general expectations.
His expectations included that such agencies generally provided their undercover operatives with handlers to help them out of situations that had gone wrong.
The reality that rapidly became clear to Yassen was that MI6 had not seen fit to provide Alex with that assistance.
As Yassen was beginning to tell himself constantly, he wasn’t the boy’s caretaker. At the same time, if MI6 wasn’t keeping Alex alive, who else would?
