Summary
Tim wakes up to a hallucination in his kitchen, making breakfast. Fried eggs and bacon. The smell makes him nauseous.
Unfortunate. Normally his hallucinations don’t have aromas. He hopes this is a one-off.Series

The Happiness Game! by engraved (Ludicrously_Idiotic), shouldbeworking

Summary
The Phantom Thieves have nearly secured their route through Maruki's Palace. There’s only one section left: The Twilight Corridor. A paradise where everything is perfect, and everyone is always smiling.
In order to enter that place, the Thieves must first prove they've "completed orientation" and can be "happy." There are points, there is a scoreboard, and they’re locked together in an experimental space where wishes can be granted by simply saying them aloud. Everyone has to individually earn 100 happiness points, or no one is leaving.
So what is “happiness,” really? How does Maruki define happiness? What the hell is a quantifiable happiness point? Is there any way around this? Don’t these stupid kids realize this is a trick to get them to fall back into the thrall of Maruki’s reality? And why can’t Goro earn any fucking points?
(Or: I've been watching too much Dropout Game Changer and I’ve built an Akechi torture chamber.)
Includes illustrations by the amazing engraved!

Summary
“The Joker is dead. Batman is dead. One of those things is good and one is bad, but she’s not sure which is which right now.
There’s a child sitting on the floor between them, laughing hysterically. That’s an easy one—bad.”
Harley and Tim are the only survivors of Joker's plan to brainwash Robin. She does her best to pick up the pieces.

Summary
Reed let out a laugh. “So that was genuine, back there? You’re stuck doing everything I say?”
Connor slowly shut his eyes.
"No, this will be good for you! It'll be character building," Reed laughed, "Not a word of this to the old man."
~
Gavin Reed is partnered up with Hank and Connor on a case, much to the disgust of all three of them. However, something changes and Connor finds himself compelled to obey everything Reed tells him to do. With Reed finally getting his petty revenge on Connor for merely existing, Connor tries to make Hank aware of the nightmare he's stuck in.Series

Summary
There’s nothing wrong with the smile. It’s not one of the terrible, toothy ones Connor had given in their first days of knowing each other. It’s subtle, and looks like it fits on Connor’s face—like it folds right into the fabricated creases.
It doesn’t look right on Connor.
(Or: Amanda quietly wins on the stage. The thing piloting Connor’s body is not Connor. Hank will stop at nothing to get him back.)
