    Summary

    Jason’s jaw flexes. “You think he’s gonna stop?” he asks, voice low and dangerous. “He won’t. Men like that— they keep taking until someone stops them.”

    He leans closer, “I can give you the gun.”

    Tim’s stomach turns. “I can’t, Jason,” he says quietly, forcing each word.

    Jason studies him in silence, unreadable.

    “Then let me,” he says finally.

    ····•····

    “What did you do?”

    The words hang in the air, soft but loaded, a warning and an accusation all at once.

    Jason watches him, his expression blank and unflinching.

    Tim’s voice rises, ragged and raw, shaking with the force of all he’s repressed. “WHAT DID YOU DO?”

     

    •··········•··········•
    OR: Tim keeps getting himself kicked out of schools (that little vigilante thing sort of gets in the way), and Jack Drake starts taking it personally. Their already-strained relationship devolves into abuse. Jason offers a helping hand. Tim's parents don't survive.
    •··········•··········•
    Can be read as a standalone, but is a chronological follow-up to Chekhov's Gun (aftermath of Titans Tower Attack)

    Summary

    “Dad!” Tim froze where he was, ice creeping up his spine. He’d had his anxieties coming home, but deep down he’d known that his dad didn’t like to wake up before nine or ten. And Jack had definitely been drinking last night; Tim had seen the bottles before leaving for patrol. Liquor usually kept him drowsy. Come to think of it, his breath already reeked of the substance.

    Jack didn’t seem to be holding anything, and as far as Tim could tell, nothing in his room was misplaced. What was going on?

    Jack’s glare became even more vicious. “Where the fuck have you been?”

    OR

    5 times Tim doesn’t tell anyone his secret, and 1 time they find out.

    Summary

    Arthur is a world class violinist, trapped in Sydney, Australia, by his fear of flying. In the wake of a mediocre concert, vicious critics and with barely a month to go before his next (hopefully reputation-saving) recital, Arthur is almost at breaking point. When his accompanist, Morgana, breaks her wrist in a car accident, Arthur is more or less doomed. And the story begins, when the Maestro at the conservatoire, Gaius Stresemann, recommends his protege Merlin Emrys to step in. Merlin, who plays by ear, as he pleases and really just wants to be a kindergarten teacher.

    Well. The story really starts six months previously when Arthur passes out drunk outside Merlin's shoe-box apartment.
