    I was not in kemmer. He would always be. He had said to me once that my people were single, whole, undivided. But now we would now always be in a pair, ourselves and the other, the inside and the out, the left hand and the right hand.

    Summary

    Roman finally gets up the nerve to clear the air with Seth.

    He keeps thinking about Finn saying I just don’t trust you. I might never. What a relief it was to hear it. It had seemed like such a big deal when he just knew it, and then Finn said it out loud and it wasn’t as bad as he thought.

    Set immediately after the 2/19/2018 episode of Raw.

    Summary

    Dick’s cheek smashed against the sharp gravel, Slade’s body pinning him to the ground. “That was hardly a fight at all, kid,” Slade murmured in his ear before he pulled off of Dick, replacing his body weight by slamming his knee on the small of Dick’s spine and keeping it there. “I’m disappointed, honestly. You trying to lose?”

    Dick’s fingers spasmed and curled into the gravel in silence, and then, slowly, Slade shifted. Removed his knee. Slade gave a rough, startled laugh as he made the realization, and Dick heard him sit back, then stand.

    “You were,” Slade murmured, sounding almost delighted. Or — at least, as close as a man like that could get.

    Dick rolled over and pulled himself up, brushing the debris from his face and his clothes, heart jackhammering as he stared Slade in the eye. Dick swallowed hard.

    “I have a deal for you.”

    Slade huffed, like that was quaint, the corner of his lip upturning. “...A deal?”

    “A deal," Dick said quietly. "One year."

    Summary

    Bruce Wayne is a mob boss with a problem: his little Talon is out of control. So he does what any reasonable person would do: hire a deadly mercenary to deal with it.

    Slade Wilson has a year to teach Robin how to act like a normal person again, which is harder than it sounds. Especially when the little bird is nothing like what he imagines.

    Summary

    The clues had been there all along. Jason pushed a shaky hand through his hair as all the puzzle pieces came together at once.

    The black-suited underbosses who showed up like clockwork. The fancy cars, the omnipresent bodyguards. The manor built like a fortress. The clandestine surgeries in the conservatory. The guns and knives squirrelled away in every room. The shooting range in the basement.

    Bruce wasn’t just a wealthy scion and society fixture, he was also a fucking mob boss.

    ~~

    OR: the Mafia AU where Bruce has Gotham under his iron fist and Jason just wants to be a priest.

    Summary

    In a universe that falls somewhere in between Teen Titans and Young Justice, Robin was fourteen years old on the day he was killed in action, caught in a clever trap laid by the world’s most dangerous mercenary assassin.

    Deathstroke’s Apprentice was fifteen on the day he finally surrendered to the Justice League, with blood on his hands and scars that will never heal.

    Dick Grayson is seventeen on the day he chooses to face Slade Wilson again.

    Some things you lose and can’t ever find again. Some things you drop and leave behind. Some things you just have to learn how to carry with you.

    (They’ll call that the Nightwing Protocol, if he survives.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    this is so so good. i read the whole thing in about seven hours which i can't in good conscience recommend but holy shit. what a ride. the intricacy of the central relationship - of all the ways abuse spirals out into every part of dick's life - was so stunningly and gracefully respected. also, there are so many fight scenes, and they are all fucking fire.

    Summary

    Richie shrugs, paws at his eyes with the heels of his hands. He feels suddenly very fragile, like unstable, like a bomb. Like he could start crying or puking or throwing punches. He remembers this feeling from childhood, like a dam somewhere inside him has broken and if he stands very still that maybe, maybe he can keep the churning contained.

    Since Mikey left it’s been worse. The pit in his stomach gnawing and expanding and spreading like sour poison into his mouth and fingertips. Mouth and hands that he puts on, in Carmy. Infecting him too.

    Summary

    He moves first, ducking his head slightly, hunching his back. Sydney moves a half second later, bounces on her toes, almost knocks him in the forehead. She laughs again and moves her hands, her arms, and then she has him hooked by the neck with her forearms, up on her tiptoes, and they’re kissing in the narrow hallway that leads from his living room to the door. He slides his arms around her waist.

    She’s a good kisser, even if she tastes like beer. He likes the solid feel of her body against him.

    It’s been a while since he’s kissed anybody and he figures it’s the same for Sydney.

    Sometimes you just want to be kissed. Sometimes you just need to feel somebody. Sometimes you have like, ten beers and you’re both there and bad tension is still tension so you make out.

    Summary

    Her first thought is, grow up. After the blow-up, she thought every white boy with shaggy black hair was him; she was paranoid, she saw his face in cracks on the sidewalk, when she looked at trees the wrong way. She went back to New York for her summer of eating, and even though he was upstate and it was five years later, she just thought, he’s going to know I’m here, he’s going to feel it, God’s going to come to him in a dream and send him to me so he can call me a selfish bitch.
