Summary
“Has Robin always been this, uh…” There’s a pause that grows heavier the longer it lingers. “Stoic?”
Superboy sighs. “I dunno. Maybe? I only ever teamed up with him like, twice before the whole ‘Kidworld’ thing, but that was before Superman came back, so there’s a pretty big gap in between.”
“I could be wrong, but…” Bart sounds uncharacteristically hesitant, like each word is being slowly pulled out of him. “I think something might have happened to him. Something bad.”
(Five rooftop encounters between the third Robin and a Kryptonian, and one that happens deep underground.)

Summary
"Hurry," says Impa, ancient and anxious.
"Hurry," says the ghost of a woman you've mostly forgotten.
The Master Sword burns in your hands as you pull, knees trembling and sweat slick between your shoulder blades.
(People keep telling you who you are, the hero you're destined to be. Eventually, you're going to prove them wrong.)

Summary
The bond company sees the SecUnit’s sentience as a selling point, not an ethical quandary. Dr. Mensah believes that it is a person before she ever lays eyes on it. Meeting that person and folding them into their lives requires a lot of hard discussions and complicated preparations. Only some of this was covered in the rental documents.

Summary
Episode 224 of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon features a controversial B-plot and a metaphorically complicated group sex scene, so SecUnit is a little less distracted while Dr. Arada and Prof. Bharadwaj conduct their crater survey.
Later, Dr. Rhatti will call some of this planet’s fauna monsters, noting how one specimen quote “chewed SecUnit completely in half.”

Summary
Crowley drifts through the cottage, idly gathering stray cups and wine glasses with the intent to wash them only to abandon the task halfway through. Two months ago, the sight of their kitchen in such a state would make him want to scream. It makes him want to scream now, of course, but that’s hardly the kitchen’s fault, is it? Not when literally everything makes him want to bury his claws deep into his own face and scream until he can’t scream anymore.
(It's some number of days after they quit counting the days in quarantine. There's a flaming sword of thorns where Crowley's spine should be.)

Summary
Tim Drake is the Stray: snarky genius child and protege to Selina Kyle. His primary after-school activities consist of running around Gotham dressed as a cat, stealing shit from mob bosses, petting animals, and generally being an agent of mild chaos.
Things get even more chaotic when a new Robin appears on the scene, unafraid of the world and eager to stop criminals like Tim.
But who knows? They could become friends. And given a few years, maybe even brothers.
. . .
A series of vignettes over the years. AU where Jason never dies and Tim doesn't become Robin, but somehow the family still always comes together in the end.

Summary
"Because Bruce might be back, but Kon wasn’t.
And this time he didn’t have some kind of cross country puzzle to keep him constantly occupied and unable to stop and think.
He didn’t think Gotham would welcome him with open arms anymore. Dick would hand the cowl back to Bruce, but Bruce would have his son there to remain as Robin.
Thinking about San Francisco made his chest ache in such an indescribable way, he almost wished he had the courage to go back. It would force him to face a lot of his issues. Namely, the fact that he could still see Kon flying around in the bright skies out there.
There was one place…
But he couldn’t impose. He had learned from an early age that taking up space that didn’t need to be filled was worse than most crimes he could commit. "
OR, in which Tim hallucinates Kon after his death, and tries spending some time in Smallville to see if it helps. Then, Kon comes back.
Edit: Now with art!

Summary
Tim Wayne has a lot on his plate. Being the son of a billionaire and VP of a major company keeps him busy enough to ignore the more mundane aspects of teenage life, such as the boy who refuses to leave him alone (Tim’s siblings say it’s flirting. It’s absolutely not that.)
Conner Kent-Luthor has pretty much nothing on his plate. He wields his status as a billionaire’s son very differently, and is intent on keeping it that way. He can’t help but be drawn to Tim Wayne, though, even if the boy in question is uninterested in returning Conner’s advances.
But when Tim’s carefully managed health starts to deteriorate and Conner’s expertly crafted mask starts to slip, the boys find themselves falling into something with each other that they never could’ve expected. They’re just not sure how long it will last.
