Summary
He's not made for this. He can't laugh with businessmen like Bruce, can't charm the socks off of old ladies like Dick. He can't do anything. Not as Robin, not even as just Jason.

“What was hers?” Jason asks finally. Bruce looks up at him, fiddling with the flashdrive in his hand, and back at the empty doorway. “Her favorite?”
“I can't recall.”

Summary
Superman shot down to the mountain of rubble that had begun to shift, carefully pulling away car-sized hunks of stone. Between the grinding of the stones against each other, Clark heard sniffling. “You alright, there Superboy?”
A small voice called back, “I’m stuck.”
Clark bristled in shock. “Kon?”
The boy looking up at him with grey eyes was no more than seven or eight years old. There was dust in his black hair, and he was practically drowning in a Kryptonian suit under a spiked leather jacket. The sleeve had been pinned under a stone.
One minute, Kon is seventeen, the next, he's seven. Clark grapples with the guilt of wanting more time.

“You’ve gotten old. And slow.” Talia holds the dress up to her figure, considering the way it would fall against her hips. “I heard you come in.”
“Maybe I wanted you to,” he growls, in that ridiculous voice of his.

Six to Seven Hours: or; The Adventures of Arkas, a Once Famous Gladiator from Isthima by emeryhall
Fandoms: Captive Prince - C. S. Pacat

Summary
“My cousin told me,” said Alexon, proudly, “he met a man who had once been a famous gladiator from Isthima. He lasted only minutes in the arena with Damianos. But afterwards Damianos had him in his chambers for six hours.”
“Seven hours,” said Lamen, frowning slightly.
— C.S. Pacat, The Adventures of Charls, the Veretian Cloth Merchant
This is (in part) the story of Arkas, a once famous gladiator from Isthima, and his friend, Basia, a once famous gladiator from Vask. At an inn in Patras they meet two sheep farmers: one a sizable man, the other has yellow hair and keen blue eyes. Perhaps they drink too much double-strength wine. Perhaps they tell too many tales.
It is also (in part) the story of King Laurent of Vere and King Damianos of Akielos. At an inn in Patras, at a table with two gladiators, King Laurent learns of more than just his husband’s sexual prowess.

Summary
He’d had hope, after those talks, that when the sting of Olympic loss had faded he and Auguste would be able to salvage something of their old friendship. This doesn’t seem likely now. Sorry I gave you a concussion when I checked you is one thing; sorry I beat you out for the gold medal and then had your little brother wear it while I fucked him is another.

Marriage of Inconvenience by susiecarter

Summary
Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."
Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."
(Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

Summary
“This is where I take nutritional breaks and sleep. I have training scheduled in 24 minutes,” he explains, a little uncertain.
“Oh,” she adds, an automatic vocal filler that often gets interviewees to continue.
“Of course, if you need anything done now, I’ll do it,” he adds, with just a slight undercurrent of a rush.
His face may be smooth, his tone blandly professional, but this boy is terrified.

Summary
He had been part of his father’s government since he was sixteen. He had seen more relegations than he had seen Winternight Balls. He just had not realised that his siblings did not understand it.
“But he wouldn’t,” said Ciris numbly. “Not— not us.”
“Yes, he would,” Nemolis said. “Ciris. He would.”Series

When Varenechibel IV and his three eldest sons are killed in an airship crash, the eyes of the court turn to the only surviving heir: the nine-year-old Maia Drazhar. Facing down the near-hopeless precedent of child emperors, however, is not something he will have to do alone.

Summary
Kaz squints at her. “Are you a student, Inej?”
And, oh, no.
Her name sounds exactly right in his rock salt rasp. It spells trouble. She shakes it off and tries to focus on answering the question. She supposes that in a different world she could be a student. She would live in a cozy apartment with some other girls, and this would just be a part-time job, so she would have time to attend lectures and write papers and go on dates.
But Inej does not live in that world. She lives in this one.

Summary
"No doubt thou didst melt the seal open on the steam vents to read the business of thy betters, planned how thou wouldst ingratiate thyself with the Archduke— oh yes, we know thy tricks…”
Not the steam vents, thinks Csevet. It would wet the paper. The hot pipes, yes— but not the vents. He would only use a steam vent if he wanted to bleed the ink onto the external sheet and claim inclement weather, and that almost never can be gotten away with inside the court.
Captain Orthema is saying Lord Chavar, leave Mer Aisava, but Csevet knows Chavar will not move for love or money now, not until he has said his piece.

Summary
Jango and Obi-Wan hijack a freighter and go on a galactic road trip to kill a man.
or;
Montross is a little cleverer on Korda VI. Jango ends up tossed into the cargo hold of 'The Stryker', a slaver freighter taking him to parts unknown and well out of Montross's way. Melida/Daan, weakened by its infighting and the Young suffering catastrophic losses, are raided by opportunistic slavers, resulting in Obi-Wan captured as a prize to be sold to a 'special' client - Force sensitive slaves are, after all, valuable cargo (and there is a dark shadow in the galaxy always on the look out for forgotten, powerful Force sensitives).
By sheer luck - or maybe the Force - they're locked in cages beside each other. They plan, they escape... and the future shifts.
