Summary
“Fear,” he smiled as if he was making a joke you didn’t yet understand, “shouldn’t control you. Not when it comes to opportunities like this."
You’re silent, worrying your bottom lip between your teeth. Frozen in indecision, eyes focused on a random paper on his desk.
Then he said your name quietly.
“Fear only has as much power as you want to give it."
You looked him in his eyes- his crystal clear eyes, penetrating and sharp in their clarity- and the words spilled from your mouth like you’d been put under a spell.
Hypnotized, like always.
“Alright. Then I’ll do it.”
or you accept an offer to TA for Dr. Jonathan Crane's Psychology of Fear class and everything goes to shit from there.

Summary
Joan Meyers is biding their time till their trust fund comes in, and they can be truly free from their family. Till then though, they have to play the same games every upstanding upper class citizen in Gotham plays.
They were never particularly good at games like that, though. And the one night they refuse to play, is the same night a certain escaped Arkham convict decides to invade their home.
Edward Nashton was not above killing trust fund babies, that much was obvious, but if Joan Meyers was on his hitlist, they were far too low to be a priority. Still, his plans aren't to be interupted. Not even by them.

Summary
When a man dies, it's of the common belief he ought to be afforded the well-earned dignity of an eternity of peace. There's to be no more strange business with dread captains and monstrous Krakens and bloody thrice-Damned pirates.
When a man dies, the story of his life is ended. For better or for worse, the ink is dried and the book is closed.
...except when, as the unfortunate case may be, said man dies on a cursed ship that decides it's not done with him quite yet.
or
James Norrington's death is only the beginning of his problems.
