    Summary

    “Renegade.” he stated, and both Robin and Red Hood startled and looked at her as well.

    Fuck.

    “Batman.” she replied, and slowly sauntered further into the room.

    Red Hood jumped up. “The fuck are you doing here, Renegade?!”

    Renegade raised her hands placatingly, “Woah there! I could ask you the same thing, man.”

    “Isn’t it obvious? Luthor hired her to keep an eye on us. Deathstroke’s probably around somewhere as well.” Robin sneered.

    “Robin, how fun! It’s a family reunion.” she joked, and didn’t miss both Robin and Batman stiffening slightly. If only they knew. “Is getting locked up together a regular thing for you guys? Like a family bonding activity or something?”

    or

    Rachel Grayson has been captured by the deadly mercenary Deathstroke. Can she handle being his apprentice, and learn to break Batman's code? Or will she crack under the psychological pressure?

    Summary

    “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”
    ~Michelangelo

    Or

    Trailer excerpt:
    “You were with her.” Elena practically growls this line while staring at Sabina. It sounds very strange in Elena’s voice … which is usually gentle and sweet.

    “Ummm,” Sabina glances at Elena, pales a little, then looks at Bosley, eyes wide with mute appeal. “Bos?”

    “Not mission relevant, Elena,” Bosley says sternly-gently, “we don’t have much time for this final briefing. I have a last-minute update from Charlie for you three. New intel.”

    Elena bites her bottom lip, looks down. Jane feels upset; she can tell Elena is upset. Sabina’s thigh is bouncing minutely under Jane’s hand: she’s obviously restless. Sabina’s upset too. Jane glances between her girlfriends ...

    “Angels!” Bosley’s voice cracks like a whip. Jane looks over in shock. Bosley is glaring at them all … though she doesn’t look truly mad. More worried. “We’re in a briefing.” Bosley says this sternly. Then, sarcastically. “It’s traditional to pay attention.”

    “Maybe you should pull our team from this one,” Jane suggests before she knows what she’s saying.

    It's unprecedented.

    Summary

    “你什么时候学会这些的。你再用点力它们就会碎掉。” 警车不太满意福特又是摸又是弹他车灯的行为,“而且我没有要逃走啊,怎么能诬告我。” 他又开始频闪他的那只光学镜。

    “暂时没有。” 福特帮他补充完这句话。

    “我的职业哲学第一条,就是绝不等人犯罪之后才介入。” 福特接着说,“有时候我们该有些前瞻性———尤其是跟你打交道的时候*。”

    “好,既然你这么说了。那我究竟要犯什么罪呢?法官大人?” 警车看似虔诚的问。

    Summary

    Trust is the trick. Faith is the con.

    He taught her how to steal without getting caught. How to lie like a prayer and smile before bullets. How to make a mark believe in mercy, even while she took everything they had.

    There were rules to the long game: charm before bullets, thought before blood, never con the family.
    He lived by them. She rewrote them.

    Together they learned that every trick was a sermon, every con a kind of faith, that in a world ruled by gold and law, survival was its own religion.

    He taught her patience, precision, and the art of vanishing. She taught him that belief can live in the hands of liars and that loyalty, once earned, is the most dangerous weapon of all.

    They weren’t good people. But they weren’t monsters, either. Just a conman and his daughter, fighting the saints in their Sunday best, building something holy out of smoke, deceit, and the will to keep living.

    Trust is the trick.
    Faith is the con.
    And even sinners need something to believe in.

    Summary

    A failed con job forces diminutive Jym Valen into a dangerous tangle of bureaucratic corruption, criminal power, and inescapable obligation. A specialist in paper crimes like document manipulation and contract fraud, Jym prefers cons that require no blade or broken doors. This time, survival demands an unlikely heist, a confrontation with forces far larger than any single mark, and a choice between competing evils where legality, morality, and self-preservation no longer align. To stay out of trouble, Jym must decide not what is right, but which wrong they can live with.

    Summary

    Johnny strained for the faintly crackling feeling of awareness he'd gotten used to, looked for those tiny shifts of head, hands, stance—but nothing doing. Henry's attention was fully on the matinee idol and the idol's on him, murmuring in their own closed circle, while Johnny watched them like a stray through a cafe window.

    Okay, so, this was new. He'd gotten on top of every knuckleball Henry had thrown him so far. You just had to watch, and then you'd see. Nobody ever said it was always going to be a goddamn delight.
