    Summary

    Slow burn. Bilbo Baggins is a half-baked archaeologist who has put his dreams of adventure on hold to teach secondary school. Thorin is the grandson of a politically powerful figure in the historically rich and deeply isolationist country of Erebor. When he flees conflict and corruption in Erebor to settle in London, he finds his hands full with two young boys. Gandalf meddles, and Bilbo signs on as a personal tutor for the boys in hopes of getting a foot in the door to archaeological work in Erebor. He soon discovers that Thorin is a tough nut to crack. As Bilbo takes care of the boys he and Thorin grow closer, and secrets about not just the brooding stranger, but the mysterious country and politics of Erebor begin to unravel. It turns out that Bilbo isn't leaving adventure behind, after all.

    Summary

    Roy and Jason have to reassess their living arrangements when Bruce agrees to shared custody of Damian. Together, they navigate changes to their household, and ripple effects from Talia's victories in the LoA.
    And maybe, finally, admit their feelings for each other.

    ~

    “You were the first person to trust me, you know?” Roy said abruptly. “You’re a paranoid bastard at the best of times, and you trusted me to be a man and do my best with her, as long as I stayed clean. We’ll both do things the best way we know how, yeah? For all of us.” 
    He shifted his hips, rolling to face Jason and Lian. “We’re not doing any of it alone, Jay.”
