Summary
Al-Haitham hums, sitting back in his seat. His eyes get that look they always do when he's thinking– at least that had stayed the same– before he put his hands in his pockets.
“You can stay with me, if you'd like,” he says all too casually as he pulls a hand back out his pocket. “For the time being,” he adds on a little too quickly, “until you manage to get yourself out of the mess you’ve made.”
Kaveh was about to open his mouth to protest. Like he'd ever take an offer from him, especially with that attitude.
But then Al-Haitham slides a key across the table to him–golden, with emerald embellishments, a carbon copy of the soulmark on Kaveh's arm– and the words on his lips dissipate into the warm tavern air.

Summary
When Kaveh discovers that Alhaitham has been reading a book about human sexuality and kinks, he generously offers to assist Alhaitham with some sexual exploration. It’s a risky proposal, and one that could end very badly—thanks to their falling-out years ago, the two of them have trust issues galore.
But it turns out that Kaveh and Alhaitham are surprisingly good at trust and communication when it comes to sex…which raises some questions about the nature of their relationship, and where exactly this whole experiment is leading them.
“Look,” Kaveh says, “if you’re going to approach sexual pleasure like an experiment, most potential partners won’t take too kindly to the idea of you having sex with them for science. Therefore, to spare all the poor people you’d inevitably insult in your quest for data, I am willing to be that person.”
“How charitable of you,” Alhaitham says.
“And I assume that you’re somewhat comfortable with the idea of having sex with me,” Kaveh adds, “or else you wouldn’t have been so willing to have my fingers in your mouth just now.”

Summary
“Excuse me. May I sit here?”
Al-Haitham looks up. He watches the student’s red eyes darken with recognition. Unfortunately, Al-Haitham recognizes him too.
“Would you leave if I said ‘no’?” Al-Haitham asks.
And just like that, the student is sliding into the seat, flipping up the desk and pulling his tablet out. He shoots Al-Haitham a glare just as the professor starts lecturing.
(Al-Haitham, Kaveh, and the three semesters in between.)

Summary
Al-Haitham’s hand comes up to hold onto Kaveh’s. Within minutes, his breathing evens out and deepens in his sleep—only broken intermittently by his wheezes in between. Kaveh continues combing through Al-Haitham’s hair, up and down and up again. He slides his fingers through his bangs, rubs away the slight wrinkle near his brow, trails his fingers down the bridge of Al-Haitham’s nose, and traces over the curve of his cheek.
Al-Haitham shifts, mumbling in his sleep—hand tightening over Kaveh’s wrist.
Something painfully warm clicks in the softest parts of Kaveh’s heart.
(Love, in the form of unconditional touch.)

After getting lost in Ghost City, Xie Lian bargains away years of servitude to the Gambler’s Den to help a man in need. He dons the robes of a worker and hides his face and life behind an enchanted mask, protecting himself from the city's denizens. Xie Lian finds an unexpected home in Ghost City before he ever sees the lord of it, the infamous Hua Cheng.

Summary
When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.
It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Xie Lian has a plan.
“Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
His voice caught.
“I mean, to—”
Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
“As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”- Language:

Summary
“Fine time for you to get all bold on me. It’s three in the morning.”
“We don’t have to do anything,” Jason said, but his hands betrayed his interest. He reached down to cup at Tim’s delicate chin and tilted his head back against his chest so he could more easily look down at him.
Tim’s eyes were clear and bright given the late hour. “Oh really? So taking care of that hard-on pressing into my back is optional, you say?”
“Isn’t it always optional, babybird?”

Summary
Therapy isn't working out for Tim (possibly because he has like, way too many issues), so Dinah suggests he try music therapy instead. This turns out to be such a good idea he drafts it to his team and suddenly he's moonlighting as a rock singer in a band that's rising in popularity. Maintaining a new "secret" identity is easy enough, and he's having a lot of fun!
Unfortunately for Tim, it seems he's a bit TOO good at the secret identity thing, because his family doesn't seem to realize that it's him.
Ugh, this is just proving his point.

Summary
People keep coming up to Kaveh to congratulate him. Kaveh doesn’t really know why, and he’s a little too scared to ask at this point, so he heads back home, content if not a little bemused.
He is, unfortunately, reminded of it the very next day, when the door slams open and Al-Haitham stalks in. “Mind telling me why everyone was congratulating me today?” he demands. “About your pregnancy?"
Or: Al-Haitham is, without a doubt, the most annoying person Kaveh knows. Maybe the world’s second-most annoying person can help Kaveh figure him out.

Summary
“Okay,” Tim finally decides, “maybe you can help. So Bruce is lost in time—”
“Oh my god,” the other Tim whispers, eyes going wide with realization. “So there’s a time travel as well as a multiverse component to the tech that brought me here. Interesting. But wait, where’s Jason? Why didn’t he back you up out there?” He looks around, frowning as though he expects Red Hood to pop out from under the bed or something.
“Time travel? How long are we talking about here? And why would Red Hood be with me?” he asks, puzzled. No one believes him about Bruce being alive, especially not the man who still considers him nothing but a poor replacement.
“...Shit.” Other Tim flops down on the narrow hotel couch. “Things are even more different here than I thought.”

Tim's given everything for the mission, maybe too much. He compartmentalises all the aliases, the undercover work, Red Robin, Timothy Drake-Wayne, but he's not sure what's left that's actually him any more.
Jason knows his Replacement better than anyone else. He's studied him the way Tim used to study Batman and Robin. And yet, sometimes, the kid still managed to surprise him.
