    Summary

    "Are you still nervous?" Minho asks, retaining that addictive nonchalance to his voice.

    Jisung releases a pathetic little laugh between his gritting teeth. “Yeah,” he breathes out. “Just a little bit.”

    "Let me smoke you out, then."

    Jisung makes the mistake of letting his curious gaze wander, allowing a mesmerized "How?" to escape him. He's done the moment their eyes meet, because then Minho's taking Jisung's jaw in his hand while the other holds what's left of his blunt, dark eyes trailing down to the lips he wants to coax apart.

    "Open for me."

    Shotgunning: the practice of inhaling smoke and then exhaling it into another individual's mouth.

    Summary

    Fang Runin is a a 21 year old war-orphan who'd never been able to escape the grasp of her foster mother. In this world, Yin Vaisra had decisively conquered the Nikan Empire years before the events of the novels, establishing a monarchy with him at the helm. After Emperor Vaisra prevented women from attending Sinegard, Rin was left with no choice but to look for another way to escape arranged marriage at the age of 14.

    Finding her savior in Tutor Feyrik, she'd been able to make a name for herself as a fighter and to keep her foster mother happy (and rich) enough to keep Rin around.

    But everything is about to change as Emperor Vaisra announces The Selection for his now heir to the throne, Yin Nezha. It's an opportunity for women to compete for the prince's hand from across the empire, but Rin vehemently opposes the whole idea.

    As fate would have it, she gets thrown into that same world she tried to avoid, her days now filled with civil unrest, secrecy, a strange growing power, and growing feelings for a certain infuriating prince.

    Summary

    While trying to take down a drug cartel that deals with memory altering drugs, things go awry, and Batman wakes up with no recollection of the last five years.
    As a result, his family must now race against time to find the antidote, while also having to deal with a Bruce who still thinks Jason is Robin. A Bruce who doesn't recognise most of them. A Bruce far less jaded and cynical than the one they're used to. A Bruce who still cares.

    Summary

    Tim’s pretty sure that Jason hates him.

    Granted, Jason hadn’t seemed to hate him yesterday and Tim has no idea what he did to cause Jason to come to this conclusion today— (and it’s not like Tim hasn’t been racking his brain for the answer to that very question ever since he woke up)— but the signs have been there all morning and the signs never lie. The sullen mood, the closed-off body language, the vague grunts and one-word responses to Tim’s few attempts at conversation… they all point to a singular conclusion.

    Jason has finally gotten sick of him.

    ---

    Or, Jason starts acting weird while both Bruce and Alfred are out of town, and it dredges up some stuff for Tim.

    Luckily, he’s still got one big brother left he can call.

    Summary

    Tim is good at galas.

    No, scratch that—Tim is great at galas. He’s been attending them ever since the age of three, when his parents first stuffed him into his little Gymboree tuxedo and gave him a stern lecture about ‘sitting quietly’ and ‘speaking when spoken to.’ He knows all the rules: what to wear, how to stand, when to smile, what to say, what not to say. He knows how to come across as polite and intelligent and charming, and on absolutely any other day, he would be rocking this.

    Or, my take on a ‘Tim Joins the Family Early’ AU, told through a series of sleepovers, most of which are unplanned.

    Featuring pre-teen Tim, Alive!Jason, and a whole lot of hurt/comfort.
