Summary
As Jason laid in the wreckage of an explosion of his own making with a bleeding neck —he never expected the batarang slicing his throat wide open— and broken body, remembering how Bruce chose the Joker over him, he just wanted to laugh at himself.
Because how could he ever expect anything different?
Nobody cared about Jason Todd. He was just a Crime Alley fuck up. He wasn’t worth a damn. He wasn’t worth anything. He should’ve known better. He did know better. He just… wished that someone would pick him for once.
.
When Bruce cut Jason’s throat with a batarang to stop him from killing the Joker, it damaged his vocal chords so badly that he could no longer talk. But Jason didn’t care anymore. He’s finally realized that no one wants to listen to what a dead man has to say.

Summary
Hidden in the deepest darkest corner of the Palace, the imprisoned Prince Zuko serves out his punishment and waits - and waits to be pardoned and released by his father.
Not knowing that Fire Lord Ozai has already declared to the world that his son has died.
Until a strange group of kids invade the Royal Palace, and accidentally rescue the formerly dead Prince Zuko...
— their invasion had gone to shreds since the Fire Lord had disappeared, and now there was an unconscious maybe-probably-enemy lying by his feet.
"Oh great, NOW what??” Sokka flailed both of his hands towards the boy. "When I said we could loot some stuff from the Royal Palace, I didn’t mean THIS!!"
As usual, Katara ignored his extremely valid point.
"We need to hurry," she said, as if Sokka didn’t already know that, it was his plan, "- can you carry him, Sokka? We have to take him with us."

Summary
In 2018, the world almost ended. The world almost ended on a surprisingly frequent basis, Stephen had discovered in the last two years. But this time, this time the solution seemed just as bad as the problem itself with five years lost and so much suffering in the interim and the years after. So Stephen pushed himself farther than he ever had before to see if he could find something else: a solution that was less cruel, less harmful, less impacting to both Earth and the universe as a whole.
He found it sometime after approximately 22.3 million futures.

Summary
“What do you have here?” Hood asks, having pushed through the crowd to stand in front of Tim, studying him from where he towers over him. Hood sounds amused, and that immediately dashes any hopes Tim has of this being an undercover mission to infiltrate or whatever and not him dealing with traffickers and happening upon Tim in the most disadvantaged situation possible.
Asshole number one grins. Even though Hood’s helmet turns away to look at him, Tim can’t rip his eyes away. Can’t even blink. “Red Hood! Didn’ know you were gonna show up. That right there is a surprise. As soon as the Big Guy gets here, we’re gonna tell everybody about it.”
“A surprise, huh?” Hood drawls. The way the helmet puts an edge on his voice is just as horrifying as it was a few months ago. That voice echoes in the nightmares that keeps Tim awake and shaking at night. “What’s the deal?” He shifts closer.
“Woah, don’ touch the merchandise yet, there, buddy.” Number one protests.
Tim feels cold wash over him at the word. Merchandise. That heavily implies he’s being sold.
Hood catches onto the word as well. “Merchandise?” He questions, an interested lilt decorating the last syllable.
Fuck.
