    Summary

    A semi-canon-compliant series following Dick Grayson and Slade Wilson as their relationship develops into something important for both of them. Slade's POV is possessive and dominant, but it's Dick that pushes things forward both physically and emotionally. Series contains a lot of classic tropes and setups, because playing with dolls is fun.

    OR

    Slade is always a murderous bastard, but he's *particularly* murderous when someone dares to harm his favorite bird.

    Summary

    Dick wakes up handcuffed to the headboard of a bed that is definitely not his own. The first clue is, his bed doesn’t have the kind of headboard you can handcuff someone to because his bed is a mattress on the floor of his bedroom.

    Summary

    “That’s not what my contract is about.” Slade sounds out of breath, but not angry; if anything, he sounds smug. Dick’s thoughts screech to an unexpected halt. The arm around his neck tightens, making him lightheaded.

    And for the first time since Dick found out Deathstroke had taken a contract in his city, Dick feels real panic, like white noise spreading through his veins. There’s a sting right above the collar of his costume, and Dick spends the last ten seconds before the tranquilizer knocks him out drowning in waves of fresh fear.

    Summary

    Dick knows that there’s only so many times you can sleep with your enemy before you can’t really call them your enemy anymore. But in his defense, there’s been a lot of extenuating circumstances, so the first time doesn’t count, and neither does the second, and definitely not the third, and—
