    Summary

    “Our eyes met! We have to fight now, that’s the rules,” declared the tall, almost manic-looking boy who came charging out at Harry like a wild Rattata. “Get ready to lose. I picked Charmander because it’s obviously the best, I walked all the way here from the orph—from home last night and slept on the pavement to get the best one first!”

    Or: Tom and Harry are aspiring Pokemon trainers, growing up alongside their teams and one another over seven years and a journey across the whole of Kanto. Whether they’re battling on opposite sides, together against a shared enemy, or with their words and wits alone, they somehow, always, keep choosing each other.

    Written for the Purge prompt “Choices”.

    Summary

    There is occasionally a certain point one reaches during the attempt to attain a goal where one decides that the goal is just not worth it.

    Unfortunately, this also often coincides with being at a point in the attainment of that goal where it’s too damn late and you’re just gonna have to suck it up, buttercup, and get your shit together and do it anyway.

    Tim is pretty sure this shit is absolutely not worth it, but it’s too late now and even if it wasn’t, Mama ain’t raise no fuckin’ quitter.

    Or:

    Tim’s quest to bring Bruce back from his Time-Travel-Super-Vacation goes horribly topsy-turvey when Ra's takes a more pro-active approach to keeping Tim prisoner, and he ends up in an alternate universe where he never existed, and everybody is disorientingly well-adjusted and weirdly obsessed with his “wellness”, whatever that means.

    Tim hates mystical artifacts.

    Summary

    The Institute has fallen, and the claim the Eye laid on its Assistants is shattered past repair. They’re free; but everything comes with a cost. Jonathan Sims was Chosen. That is not a bond easily severed.

    (You have to choose to Become. That doesn’t mean you can reject it, and survive.)

    Meanwhile, an old elm tree continues to grow before the house of Desolation, as Agnes Montague still struggles against her destiny. By her side, somewhat perplexingly, is a rather shabby goth.

    Fate craves its fulfillment, but none of its elect are going down without a fight. And none of them are fighting alone.

    ~

    In which Jon receives therapy from a dead woman, a staggering number of characters are unbearably hot (in every sense of the term), and the only thing that violates canon is that—well. Just this once, everybody lives.

    Summary

    Peter was alone, mid-way through an existential crisis after the Erasure™ and was dreading the upcoming month of May.

    Jason was sick of people telling him how he felt. ‘You don’t need us anymore,’ Artemis had told him, as if saying it would make it true. As if Jason needed someone to justify keeping them around. But three weeks back in Gotham and all Jason felt was fucking bored and lonely.

    It was a relief, then, when some random New Yorker was thrown into his living room through a portal straight out of some LSD daydream.

    Finally, something interesting to deal with.

    Cue some wild family misunderstandings, criminal conspiracies and cults.

    Because there’s always a goddamn cult.
