Summary
The kid was going to die at this rate, whether or not Jason had anything to do with it. Apparently dead Robins were just a thing, now, and Bruce didn’t give a shit whether they lived or died.
There was something almost comforting about that, that Jason’s wasn’t the only life that didn’t matter.
There was something fucking infuriating about that, that Jason’s wasn’t the only life that didn’t matter.
Well. If those fucks didn’t care about their baby bird now, Jason would just have to make them care. And he had a few ideas on just how to do that.
Robin might get a little broken in the process, but what was a little kidnapping and torture between friends?
***
a.k.a. the Titans Tower AU where Jason kidnaps Tim instead of trying to kill him. And then he kidnaps Steph. And Dick. And Cass. And...
Jason may have a problem.
Less crack-y than it sounds. This is mainly hurt, angst, and reckoning with canon trauma. Comfort will come! There *will* be a happy ending.

Summary
“What do you want, my son?” Talia asked him. “What do you truly want?”
And when Jason pushed aside his obsession with Bruce, the answer was so clear. He knew exactly what he wanted. He knew what he’d always wanted, ever since he was that little street rat who spent money he needed for food on making himself look clean. Because he’d needed to look clean and presentable to get into the public libraries. Because they wouldn’t have let a dirty homeless kid touch the books.
“I want to go to college.”
And Talia had made that happen for him.
(AU where, at the end of his League of Assassins training, Jason decides to go to Metropolis for college instead of going back to Gotham for revenge. Things spiral from there. The title is so sarcastic by the way. There’s nothing regular about Jason Todd.)

"So, uh . . ." Kon says, skeptically eyeing the softly glowing rock in his hand. Metallo, like, threw it at his head. He has no idea why. "Is this supposed to do something or . . . ?"
"It's pink," Kara says leerily, staying very firmly back.

Fandoms: Flight Rising

Summary
Aukalega is tired. Tired of being constantly walked all over by rich dragons, tired of grieving the only dragon she's ever cared about, and tired of years of slowly being starved out as a distant business magnate tried to choke her to death in the cold of the wild of the Cloudscrape Crags. But the world is changing - her life is changing. And now, it seems, the thing she is most tired of is being alone.
Then, in the middle of a terrible blizzard, Aukalega finds a delicate, sickly aberration lost in the snow at the mountain peak. Sirrus is a frail creature with a body that barely works and a mind that hurts if she tries to remember anything about her past, and she needs protection and care. Aukalega's protection and care.
Now Sirrus is her responsibility - but does that mean Sirrus is hers to keep?Bookmarked by TricksyPixie

Summary
When they told her story they harped on her innocence, her brazen cloak, the dangers of talking to strangers and straying from the path.
Red agreed that those were dangers. After weeks of catching her breath, she did not agree they were wrongs.
--
Little Red Riding Hood was not little. Her name was not Red, but they called her that. When she got back to her mother’s house, after the wolf, she hid her red cloak in the back of her closet.
Had a huntsman cut her out of the wolf’s belly? Had she realized the danger and tricked her way to safety? Or had she had a little pocket knife in there with her, and cut her own way to the light? All she told her mother was that there was a wolf.
But this was not the story of her first death. This was the story of her life.

daughter of air: a cane and a conch shell by dirgewithoutmusic
Fandoms: The Little Mermaid - All Media Types, The Little Mermaid (1989), Den lille Havfrue | The Little Mermaid - Hans Christian Andersen
03 Nov 2014

Summary
Ariel will not be sea foam or a queen. There is life beyond love. There is love in just living. Her true love will not be married on the morn--the prince will be married then, in glorious splendor, but he had never been why she was here.
Ariel traded her voice for legs to stand on, a chance at another life. When she poked her head above the waves, it wasn't the handsome biped that she fell for. It was the way the hills rolled, golden in the sun. It was the clouds chasing each other across blue sky, like sea foam you could never reach.
(She does reach it, one day, bouncing around in the back of a blacksmith's cart, signing jokes to him in between helping to tune his guitar. They crest up a high mountain pass and into the belly of a cloud. Her breath whistles out, swirls water droplets, and she reaches out a hand to touch the sky. Her feet will scream all her life, but after that morning they ache just a little bit less).

Passing a test might mean speaking diamonds, or finding a treasure, or an enchanted hat. Failing one might mean speaking toads, or chopping your own leg, or losing a treasure.
Giving tests... giving tests means a lot more than that. Morlana has known that for a long time. But she still didn't expect her intended saviour for the kingdom to pass her test, refuse her reward, and run away.
And someone still has to find out where the princesses are going every night.
