[Podfic] if life gives you demons (make a deal) by Mintoki for GalaxyOwl13

Summary
Tim is tired. He tells himself that's why he didn't jump in to save Captain Boomerang. It's probably even true. But standing on the rooftop, frozen and numb, it just feels like an excuse.
It isn't Batman who finds him first.

Summary
"It feels weird having a name for a being he and his friends had known only as the 'Time Devil,' but he thinks it’s only right that he know the title of the fairy he quite literally pledged his soul to. It was really the only piece of information he had gotten from the fairy before he offered Zirk a deal for another chance at saving Irina from the corrupting influence of the crown of Cerenysus.
A deal he had taken and sacrificed his soul for.
A deal that he then reneged on when Fia used his research to bring him back from the dead.
A deal his friends don’t even know he made in the first place."
OR
Zirk still hasn't told Fia and Henry the full truth about the circumstances surrounding his deal with the winter fairy. As the weeks wear on, however, the consequences that have arisen from his death and subsequent resurrection become harder to hide.

Summary
“'Sejanus, at least you have a life. So these next four years have you stuck under the thumb of Dr. Gaul? Use that time to come up with a plan for what happens in that fifth year. So your father is disappointed in you? Use that as an opportunity to do what you want without fear of his judgment. View this as a key, not a shackle.'
The words are spoken matter-of-factly, as if this is the most obvious solution in the world. And perhaps to Coryo, ever the pragmatist, it is. Sejanus can feel the tension dissipate from within him as a chuckle, the first in weeks, leaves his lips unbidden.
'You make it sound so easy.'
'Maybe it’s not,' Coryo agrees. 'But when has something like that ever stopped you?'"
OR
Rather than allowing his son to be sent to the districts as a Peacekeeper, Strabo Plinth convinces Dr. Gaul that his son can be better monitored in the Capitol. This changes everything and also changes absolutely nothing at all.

[Podfic] Runaway Robin by Mintoki for DangerBeckett
Fandoms: Batman (Comics), DCU (Comics)
29 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
One night, Robin spots a kid with an overnight bag on a rooftop, and he jumps to the obvious conclusion: the kid's trying to run away. The kid is doing a really bad job of it, though, and that's the sort of thing Robin just has to correct.
Except the kid is Tim Drake, and Tim isn't actually trying to run away. But "running away" does sound a little better than "stalking bat-themed vigilantes through the crime-infested streets of Gotham every night." So he lets Robin have this one.
Besides, that's the end of it, right? Robin might have found Tim once, but no one ever looks for Tim a second time. Robin can think whatever he wants. They'll never see each other again.
(They see each other again.)

Summary
Freddy is used to being pinned against lockers.
He’s used to the clang of his skull on metal, the way his legs buckle. He’s used to the crushing pressure on his chest or his neck, making his lungs stutter and gasp for air. He’s used to the humiliation and the gleam in his torturer’s eyes as they kick his crutch down the hallway.
He’s used to their talk, their degradation, their insults. He reminds himself that none of it phases him anymore. This time is no different, he thinks.
And he doesn’t believe that at all.
Or,
Why Freddy tells the supervillain where Billy is, because we weren’t given a reason in the movie.

A fic I distinctly remember reading almost immediately after watching Shazam in theaters. I love the “extended scene” nature of the fic and I think it slots in perfectly with the original movie.

Bookmarker's Notes
When a news article mistakes Captain Marvel for Captain Marvel Junior’s and Mary Marvel’s dad, the trio decides to let it ride. After all, letting everyone believe that the adult Captain Marvel is legally responsible for the two teen heroes is much better than the alternative of admitting that they’re all teen heroes and have independently been so the whole time. Billy thinks that his assumed dad-status will be the only change to how Captain Marvel is viewed among his Justice League colleagues. Unfortunately for him, some unanticipated questions (and Freddy’s inability to shut his mouth) lead to more complications than initially expected.
So so funny. I love how the lies start spiraling out of control almost instantly and yet at no point do Billy, Mary, or Freddy try to come clean. It’s literal perfection and definitely worth the read

Bookmarker's Notes
Tim’s idol and hero (after Batman and Robin, of course) is attending Gotham Comic Con as a guest panelist. Unfortunately, the panel requires all children under 18 to be accompanied by an adult. This would be a problem for a supervisionless child like himself… if he didn’t have a secret he could use to force the Waynes to act as his chaperone for the trip, that is. But he does, so it isn’t. Whoever said blackmailing is hard?
I genuinely cackled at the reveal of “Hello! I am blackmailing you! A presentation by Tim Drake.” This fic is my perfect type of humor and was just a really fun read. Alfred being the one to bring Tim into the fold is underrated too

living just takes... by SilverSkiesAtMidnight for Giveemhale

Summary
Robin dies.
Tim isn’t a little kid anymore. He understands that people - most people - die rather easily, sooner or later.
But Robin isn’t most people.
Robin was supposed to be magic. Like Tim.
Or: Tim's mother passes down more than just a sharp wit and a strong sense of independence, and the batfam are under some severe misapprehensions.

Bookmarker's Notes
Tim Drake is five years old and cradling a broken arm when his mom reveals to him a secret; he has a metahuman ability which allows him to rapidly heal, just like her. In order to keep this power hidden, she insists it’s imperative that he hides his injuries and any pain associated with them. After years of lessons, it becomes second nature for Tim to brave stab wounds and torn ligaments without flinching. This, he thinks, makes him the perfect candidate to become the Robin Batman so desperately needs. After all, who would worry about a kid who can survive almost anything?
I am such a sucker for stories where characters have absurd supernatural/superhuman healing factor and use it under the simultaneous logical and self-sacrificing belief “better me than someone else.” This fic also puts a fun and unique twist on it wherein Tim’s horrifying healing ability isn’t a secret from the Batfam, but other aspects surrounding it are. It’s so so good and also the way that Cass and Tim are written as parallels to each other is such a highlight, even if that isn’t the main focus of the fic.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
A stop to the Clock tower, to see Tim and Cass, before stopping to pray for forgiveness or visiting a church.
Helena has always been good at sinning anyway.”
All I can say is Helena Bertinelli my beloved. I love everything about this fic
