Summary
Danny works at the Watchtower as a Technician/Mechanic, although being scouted out specifically by the Big Black Bat himself seems to make it hard for him to get along with his higher ups apparently.
Along the way danny gets a traffic light colored duckling that follows him around every-once-in-a-while.
[Changed rating due to Ch 10 that I forgot to fix oopsies]
[reworked chapter 20, go give it a reread]

Bookmarker's Notes
Tim never planned to reveal his meta ability to anyone. But when a basic fight on patrol goes horribly wrong, Tim is forced to choose between his secret and Jason’s life. Everything really just spirals from there.
Jason doesn’t know how the Replacement isn’t straight up dead yet, but he’s going to do his damned best to keep him that way. Even if that means he has to deal with a Tim induced migraine trying to keep Tim from self-destructing in his efforts to save others.
Duke has no idea what he’s doing here right now.

Summary
"Freeze! Police!"
Dropping the injured man to the pavement, three of the gang raised their hands in surrender, but a fourth ran toward the far end of the alley. Buck pursued the fleeing teen.
Chris' focus on the three remaining juveniles kept him from seeing a fifth, who bashed him from behind with a hefty board. The three that he'd been holding at gunpoint ran, but the blow had stunned him and he was powerless to stop their escape, as his attacker continued the assault. Pointed toes, probably boots, robbed air from his heaving lungs.
The sound of a weapon being fired sent a chill through him, until he realized the feet were no longer attacking, but running away.
"Buck," Chris gasped.
But it wasn't his partner's shadow shielding him from the late afternoon sun. Chris blinked at a ratty pair of sneakers. Allowing his vision to drift upwards, he took in faded and threadbare jeans. He rolled to his side and pushed himself up, continuing his scrutiny. He catalogued a plain white T-shirt, beat up leather jacket, long brown hair and blue eyes.
'Sneakers, not boots.' This wasn't his attacker. Where the hell had he come from?

Summary
By midnight, all the papers are in order. Bureaucracy moves quickly when you have enough money to throw at the right people. Takashi’s guardians sign him away like he’s a used car they don’t want anymore and arrange a time to drop off all of his possessions, and that’s it.
Shuuichi is no longer an only child.
“He’ll be your responsibility,” his father says on the ride home, as if he’s not talking to a teenager who shouldn’t even be responsible for himself, let alone a five-year-old.
Shuuichi nods anyway. Takashi is asleep against his side, a heavy reminder. Shuuichi will do whatever he has to. He’ll be whatever he needs to be.
He promised Takashi he would keep the monsters away, and that’s what he’s going to do.
