Summary
Star City sparkled beneath them. A few feet away, a violinist was playing something sweet and lilting that Alfred had liked. Jason was about to have triple-Michelin-starred steak with his best friend.
And if said best friend was still acting a bit strange, in a way that made the pit of Jason’s stomach go hot and confused, well, Jason had plenty of worse nights in his two short lives.
-
Roy invites Jason out for the perfect Star City evening. You know, like friends do.

Summary
Jason is worried about Dick. There's too much on his brother's shoulders (for all Dick would never admit it), and no one else seems to care. After a helmet modification turned practical joke, Jason decides to make that making it Dick's problem might be the only way to look out for his brother. What he doesn't realize is that Dick is looking back.
Dick finally lowered his hands, brushing a clump of hair off his face, which slumped into a serious expression. For a moment, the man he’d become in the wake of Bruce’s death took his place, hair brutally murdered in pursuit of matching the look of a dead man, Atlas defeated by the weight of the world. Then he turned and took in Jason completely, from the top of his white-stained head all the way to his boots.
“Is that… Are those cat ears?”
Or: 5 times Jason tried to be there for Dick, and 1 time Dick returned the favour.

Summary
There was blood on Jason’s neck.
A thin, rust-colored line just below his jaw. Faint, but stark under the lights. Jason hadn’t wiped it. He didn’t seem to know it was there. The cut was small. Shallow. Already scabbing over. Not even worth a bandage—but enough to lodge sharply in Bruce’s mind like a splinter he couldn’t dig out.
Because it had been close. Too close to the beating artery in Jason’s throat. Had the cut been any closer, sliced any deeper, there would have been more blood still, gushing out to pool beneath him, enough to choke on, enough to drown in.
Bruce willed himself to look away.
In which a minor injury brings up some unwanted memories. Bruce isn’t sure which haunts him more—the death or the return.

Summary

In which Jason Todd discovers he's asexual, his family stages the world's most awkward intervention, and everyone learns that sometimes the real treasure is the emotional growth we made along the way.
(Also, Jason has been immune to Poison Ivy this whole time and no one thought to mention it.)

Summary
Molly tried her best. When Harry had told them, Arthur had asked excitedly, "is this a Muggle thing?" Hermione had hurried out a "no!" and a frantic history of gender diversity in the wizarding world.
"It's just that I'm a girl," Harry had said, and Arthur had nodded and asked her about how telephone booths worked. He would call her by the right pronouns until the day he died at the respectable old age of one hundred and thirty three, and he would make it seem easy.
But Molly had to try. Hermione explained things faster and higher-pitched every time Molly messed up a pronoun. Molly frowned and muttered and put extra potatoes on Harry's plate at breakfast. Harry slept in Ron's room, which didn't bother either of them but which made Hermione scowl.
Harry got boxes of sweets and warm hugs, as Molly chewed things over. For her fifteenth Christmas, the Weasley sweater she would receive would be a bright, friendly, terrible pink.
The next time Harry visited, Molly put her on Ginny's floor to sleep-- for some definition of sleep that involved Hermione hissing threats at three in the morning if Harry and Ginny didn't "shut up about Wronski feints, do you know what time it is."

Summary
Jason is nervous to come out to his father, so his big brother opts to make is own announcement to break the ice.
....
Dick strolled up to Bruce as he worked at the Batcomputer with confidence Jason couldn't imagine. “Hey Bruce.”
“Yes, chum?” Bruce responded, calmly sipping his coffee as he scrolled through updates on the Batcomputer without even looking up.
“I’m Bi.”
The Batman choked on his coffee, sputtering and spewing the hot drink onto the computer in shock. “WHAT?!” Bruce whirled around in his chair, soaked in coffee, and eyes looking panicked and angry.
“What the fuck is that reaction?” Dick snarled back in response, tugging Jason behind him and blustering up into full on Fight-Bruce mode. “YOU'RE BI TOO!”

“So we’re agreed, right?” Percy asked. “Bruce Wayne’s definitely a monster.”
“Or a god in disguise,” Hazel volunteered.
“Or a god in disguise,” Percy agreed. He slumped against the table. “Now how do I tell Mom?”“We just worry, B.” Dick leaned against the banister. “I’ve seen you get your heart broken too many times, you know? You have a habit of dating…”

Summary
Bruce is being haunted by his son, and it catches him off guard. To call it a punch in the face would be an understatement. It feels more like a baseball bat. He's an Atlas, the entire weight of the world dropped onto his shoulders and he deserves to bear it.
So he knows he deserves pain, knows that karma does collect, but he never thought retribution would come in the form of, in hot pursuit of a criminal, turning a corner and catching a glimpse of Jason standing across the street.

Summary
If you could choose a world to be isekaied into, you probably wouldn't choose the videogame Age of Tales.
It's a painfully generic medieval RPG with a very generic "farm boy becomes a hero" storyline. Or farmgirl, if you go that route. There's some moral choices, but overall the story is very linear from start to finish, and no matter how evil you try to play it, the game inevitably ends with the chosen farmboy (or girl) saving the world. Age of Tales has a very generic cast of characters with very generic backstories, even more generic villains with very basic evil plots, and side quests right out of early free to play mmorpgs. Overall the game is just very… mid.
Upon release the game was a massive flop.
And Katie has happily sunk nearly six hundred hours into it.

“Did you take these photos yourselves?”
Hannah laughed alongside Alexis. “No, silly! It’s an online forum. People send in photos of the Hood.”
“Hot for Hood,” Coffee Guy read off the screen, deadpan.
Alexis blushed. “We tend to call the photos Batpics,” she assured him in a conspiratorial tone. “Nobody really subscribes to the name.”
“I mean, it’s true,” defended Hannah. “Hood is hot. The photos emphasise that hotness.”
“Right,” said Alexis, nodding. “We just try not to say that in public, for reasons of self-preservation.”
Or: Hood's fans are pretty nice, all things considered. But forcing Tim to power through pictures of his older brother's ass before he's had his fifth coffee of the day is cruel and inhuman punishment.

”Let me get this straight,” Jason says, rubbing his eyes, “You’re telling me that we’re stranded forty minutes from the manor, trapped in the densest part of the city during rush hour, and all we have is an unmovable, totaled-to-absolute-shit car?”
“Hey, it’s not like I’m happy about it either—“
“Dick. Do you know what that means?”
Dick looks at him, his shoulders slumping as the reality of their situation threatens to cripple him. Jason looks back at him, mouth a thin line, his countenance emanating a similar aura of grim exhaustion.
“We’re going to have to take the bus.”

The first thing that Willis Todd does out of prison is an experience far more humiliating than all the years he’s just spent in Blackgate.
A small mercy is, he supposes, that it is not Bruce Wayne who actually picks up the phone.

Summary
Unknown number has sent 1 image, the banner reads. That’s right. The Replacement had said he was into photography or something. Another buzz comes in as Jason is double checking the daggers shoved into his boots. And then another. And another. It’s incessant. With a huff, Jason opens the phone back up to idly stroll through the stream of Dick’s inconsistently punctuated texts.
Tim what is this
Where are you
You said you had homework??????
Hello????
Well, he seems a little distressed.
Jason scrolls back up to the top of the chat, ignoring Dick’s incoming messages to take a closer look at the inciting image. It’s blurry and dark. Jason has to hold the phone ridiculously close to his face just to make it out. A green-gloved hand gives a thumbs-up over a piece of wet pavement. Jason squints closer. It’s not just wet. It’s a deep, slick red.
Cool. Whose blood is that? Jason asks. Dick’s response is immediate: NOT HELPING JAY.
***
Jason, Dick, and Tim learn about communication.
