Summary
Buck’s voice is a mere whisper when says, “Bobby’s death. It was my fault.”
“What–” Tommy seems to struggle with finding the right words. It takes him a few seconds but then he finally settles for saying, “Evan, what happened to Bobby was a tragedy. It wasn’t your fault.”
“Yes, it was. I changed the past when I saved you after the helicopter crash. I couldn’t live in the world without you so somehow I went back and saved you. You lived so someone had to die for nature to find balance. A life for a life.” Buck chokes out, barely seeing Tommy’s shocked and confused face through the tears that have welled up in his eyes. “It’s my fault that Bobby’s gone. I did this, Tommy. I killed him– I killed him, I killed him!”
(or: after Tommy dies in a helicopter crash, Buck somehow finds himself reliving the day and decides to fix it, not realising that an opportunity like that comes with a price.)

Summary
"Somehow, it feels like nothing has changed,
Right now, my heart is beating the same."Regulus didn’t expect to fall in love with his best friend.
But he did; slowly, carefully, day by day before the realisation crashed over him like a wave and melted into his flesh and bones; before he looked at Barty across the stage one day five years ago as they were performing one of the songs they wrote together, because what have they ever done without each other, looked at his sparkly eyes and a heartwarming grin on his face as he read the signs fans have made, and he realised that oh, he loves him.
Even though the epiphany was sudden, unexpected, it wasn’t exactly surprising. After all, who else would Regulus ever fall in love with if not Barty? Who would Regulus ever love as much as he has loved Barty his entire life?
It’s just him and Barty, always have been, just the two of them until the end.
(or, a universe, where Regulus and Barty try to navigate through life together as members of a famous band, lose each other and then find their way back to each other again.)

Summary
“I would’ve fought for us!” Evan shouts in his face, fresh tears glistering in his eyes. “I mean, at my loft and the morning after the bar and– and at the funeral. I–” He lets out a small, broken sob. “I would’ve been there for you through everything! I would’ve been–”
“I thought you knew! I thought you knew!” Tommy interrupts him the moment he realises what Evan means, the moment he realises that apparently Evan didn’t know how much Tommy loved him, how much he still loves him. “From the moment we kissed in the hospital at your sister’s wedding, I thought you knew!”
“Then why? Why?!” Evan cuts him off, his voice loud and as shaky as his hands when he weakly hits them against Tommy’s chest. “Why did you throw it all away?! Why?!”
(or: a few months after Bobby's death, Buck finds out that early into their relationship, Tommy went to Bobby to get his blessing.)

Summary
"We don't have to have this conversation right now. I– I don't want us to. We can talk in the morning after you get some rest.”
“You don't have to be this nice to me, Evan. I didn’t– I didn’t even tell you about your own daughter.” Tommy whispers and pushes himself up from his chair as well, walking around the table so he stands next to his ex-boyfriend with some distance still between them. “You don't owe me anything.”
Evan abandons his task of cleaning the table and turns to Tommy with a look on his face that's as warm and sad as his smile. “Tommy, I owe you more than you'll ever know.”
(or: almost a year after running into each other at the bar, at four in the morning Buck shows up unannounced at Tommy's house and discovers that he has three months old daughter that he knew nothing about.)

Summary
“Shoot me.” Buck tells Mr. Allen with a steady, confident voice and from the corner of his eyes, he sees the alarmed look his family sends in his direction. Even Ravi, who’s doing everything he can to stop Tommy from bleeding out on the floor of the firehouse.
“Buck–” Bobby starts but Buck barely hears his voice.
“I know what happened, Tommy told me the story. Your wife died and now you want revenge, right? Justice? Every person you think is responsible for your wife’s death, every person here that you want to hurt– I mean something to them, so kill me, not them. I'm your eye for an eye."
(or: after the 118 & the 217 lose a patient on the scene, her grieving husband wants to make them pay for not saving her and decides to get his revenge by trying to hurt people Buck loves more than anything.)

Summary
Tim Drake’s identity as Red Robin is leaked to the public, and within hours, Conner Kent is in Gotham—punching a reporter on live TV. What follows is a PR nightmare, a rooftop kiss, and a relationship neither of them were ready to define. Now, with the press obsessed, the Batfamily watching, and feelings rising faster than either of them can fly, Tim and Kon have to figure out what this is—and whether it’s worth the chaos.
Featuring: gay panic, fan edits, awkward interviews, and a reporter with a broken nose.

Summary
“It's not about corpses, Cassie, it’s about man’s capacity to destroy what he loves through his own ambition,” Kon corrected, the sheer dramatic weight of the sentence contrasting sharply with his bright blue t-shirt and jeans. He leaned forward, resting his chin on his hands, looking directly at Bart. "Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it."
Bart blinked rapidly. "Okay, now you're just being depressing. Did you run out of ice cream? I swear I only ate the—"
"He's quoting Frankenstein," Tim muttered, not looking up from his screen, fingers flying across the keyboard. “I got him to read it a while ago."
--
or in which Tim gets Kon to read Frankenstein and Kon begins to quote it at inappropriate and appropriate times.

Summary
Once upon a time, Tim Drake was Robin.
And he was 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥.
But he wasn't chosen.
And that's fine, okay? It was a delicate situation, he understood that then and he understands it now. He doesn't hold it against Bruce, or Dick, or anyone after him who benefited from the Batman that he fixed. It's just, he hadn't realized how many things he lost out on while fixing Batman.
The ice cream just seems to be the final straw.

Summary
The VIP box was silent. Beside Dick, Bruce was staring at the Jumbotron over the rink completely focused. Their whole family had been watching the Lookalike contest with interest but went quiet when Bruce got that look on his face. That Batman look. Like he was trying to solve a case. Or catch a ghost.
And Dick knew why.
Because there, on screen, was Jason Todd.

Summary
“Because it’s all your fault!” Kon snapped.
Robin bristled, eyes narrowing. “Oh, it’s my fault, is it?”
“Yes!” Kon tugged at his hair in frustration.
Robin stepped forward, closing the gap between them, getting in Kon’s face. “Enlighten me. How exactly is any of this my fault?”
“What color are your eyes?”
“I-” Robin took a step back in bewilderment. “What?”

Kon has been distracted and Robin finally confronts him.
