    Summary

    "I can teach you that and more. Come along with me now, kid, and I will show you a new side of this world you can only dream of." Slade offered up his hand again for the third time that night. The first handshake, the trusting grip when Dick allowed Slade to take him to the cemetery and now... this. Third time was the charm after all. A third connection between them to mark the slow corruption of that white, pure soul.

    Dick swallowed and reached out.

    Slade glanced at the direction of the church. Time was rapidly running out. Slade would very much like to sink his claws into this innocent creature while the darkness was still at his command. Even more preferably when he was at his absolute strongest. They had the time if he played his cards right. He curled his fingers around Dick's hand, giving him a predatory grin. "You won't regret this, Master."

    Summary

    "What the fuck, old man?!"
    Now, although Dante is not entirely happy with the "old man" title, the first part of the sentence reflects his feelings on the matter perfectly. Lying among the garbage bags, he squints his eyes to get a good look at the attacker. But the sun is shining right into his eyes, and all he can see at the moment is a bright hair color, short stature, slim build and an elongated form in his hand. And a voice that, when the little shit starts yelling again, sounds quite high-pitched and young. And very, very angry.
    "First you fuck off somewhere after damping a load of dramatic bullshit on me and now you are here? With a guitar case, of all things?! What are you, a pretty rock band singer now? Do you even have a slightest idea what I've been feeling all this time?! I... I thought you dead-"
    Then he suddenly stops and looks at Dante intently. Something changes in his eyes, and then his gaze switches to the remains of the red coat, which Dante continues to hold in his hand.
    "Oh," he says.

     

    Or: AU, where Dante is a little more adept at catching his brother, Vergil (just a little bit) - at being a father and Mundus needs a little more time to come up with his Evil Scheme.

    Summary

    “You guys ever complain about your dads together?”

    “Hell no,” Nico said. “Just mention Dante or Vergil and Nero’ll clam up faster than a jackrabbit. Best I’ve been able to get is a-” she started doing a terrible impression of his voice “-those bastards left me behind.”

    “Oh, Nero,” Lady said.

    Summary


    The Calamity struck 100 years ago and the Zora were wiped from the face of Hyrule before Princess Zelda and Champion Link could meet them. King Dorephan was felled by Ganon. His body and the death of his people displayed; so all might see the futility of resistance against the Blight.

    Now Link and Zelda have conquered the Calamity, and the repatriation of Hyrule Castle begins. But there’s something else still lurking in the castle, waiting for Link, and it’s angry.
