“Not the glittering weapon fights the fight, but rather the hero's heart.”
---
“I am fastest,” Volly said, and he knew this was true. The other dragons told him so; no one was faster than Volly, not in the entire Aerial Corps. “We will save friends.”
--
Volly is a courier dragon, not a hero, until the day he's both. (Volly POV)

Summary
Bob keeps watching her, though, the way he has been every day for the past three weeks, and he doesn’t miss how her tongue darts out to wet her bottom lip. It would be so, so easy. They’re already standing this close together. If he could just lean down and …
He couldn’t.
So instead, he clears his throat. “What about you? You were gonna say something?”
Natasha looks up at him with those big brown eyes, and Bob feels the ground fall out from under him. All his talk for chasing blue, and he finds himself lost in brown over and over again.
“I think I’m going to throw up.”
Oh!

"We,” Tav pointed a thumb back at Karlach and Shadowheart, “Were planning on shopping for new threads.”
Figaro clapped his hands. “Of course, I’d be more than happy to assist you! And I am of course willing to provide a very generous discount for saving me before. Do you have a budget in mind?”
“I was thinking around-” Tav stopped himself as he felt two glares pierce his back. “Ahem,” he coughed. “No budget.”

Summary
“What can I say?” Daniel says. “I’m a sucker for red lipstick and strong women.”
Dottie slaps him so hard it echoes. Daniel checks his teeth with his tongue, just to be sure. “I’ve killed men for less,” she hisses.
“But you’re not going kill me,” Daniel points out. “Not while I’m still useful.” While he’s pushing his luck, he figures he might as well ask, “So what’s the plan?”
“Why would I tell you?”
He detects a sour note in her voice. “Thought I was doing you a favor.”

Laurence wasn't prepared for Granby's answer when he asked who were Captain Dawson and his dragon Christiana.

A DC universe where moms are awesome and raise their kids right. Now with more melanin and queerness. Also, Gotham's in Michigan and Metropolis is in Connecticut. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Fics are in chronological order but are all standalone.
