    Summary

    People who lived outside of Gotham City would most often think of it in terms of its heroes and villains. About Batman and Robin, Joker and Harley Quinn.

    People who actually live in Gotham City would only think of one thing: surviving.

    Who cares about the people in costumes when your house has been bombed for the fifth time, or your wife has been taken hostage just because she worked in a bank?

    Or, in your case, when you have to make regular deliveries to places where even Batman feared to tread?

    Because let's face it. In a world full of superheroes and costumed villains, the real heroes are the ones who make sure that people get their pizzas in forty-five minutes or less.

    Summary

    Working as Dick Grayson’s personal assistant, was somehow the most anticlimactic and bizarre thing that had ever happened in her life.

    Mainly, because she had only seen the man a handful of times at best. Let’s backtrack a little, shall we?

    Or, alternatively: in which the reader gets way more than she bargained for when she starts working as Dick Grayson's personal assistant.

    Summary

    It should be easy: get to Omashu for a diplomatic summit, stay out of each other's way, and try not to confront a once-solid friendship that feels distant at best and hopelessly frayed at worst.

    Life, though, has decidedly less simple plans for the Fire Lord and the Ambassador.

    (Or: Katara and Zuko find themselves shipwrecked, and both wish the island they wind up on had been deserted. After all, there's no need to pretend to be married to your estranged best friend if there's no one around...)
