    Summary

    Harry Potter has always been different, and his strange connection to plants marks him as the freak his Aunt and Uncle always claimed he was. The wizarding world was supposed to be an escape, but even there, he must hide the truth of his abilities. His magic doesn’t fit the rules, and secrets have a way of growing wild.

    (If only there was someone who understood...)

     
    A re-telling of the books in which Harry has more than one power the Dark Lord knows not.

    Summary

    The Monolith was gone.
    The inevitable tide of events was already receding, and with it went the other Bats. They disappeared one by one, to coordinate with the GCPD or to write reports or tend to wounds or get to cleanup or, in just one case, to sleep, and Jason was left on the shore behind them, standing still and somehow changed.
    Jason did what he did best, and fled.

    or,

    What is Jason Todd, if not Living, or not entirely so?

    Dante did promise him answers.

    ***

    This is a one-shot that takes place between the events of Released (My Tongue Will Speak Visions) and The Fish That Dried the Sea (sequel, forthcoming). It's unlikely to make any sense without reading the former!

    Summary

    The dead greet the living.
    We are those who wait at the end of all existence. We are those whose outstretched palm grasps infinity. We are the unchanging conclusion. We are your reflection and your foil.
    You are the infant, new from the cradle. You are they who sit upon our palm. You are the delicate assembly of experience and change. You are the unfolding entropy.
    We greet you on the knife’s-edge of the Balance that you have broken. We seek that which you have taken and sundered. We reach, now, from within that palm, to correct your blind fumbling.
    Summon your counsel. Await our arrival.

    The comms were silent. The snowing sensation had resolved within Tim’s mind but it was still there, a banked presence that he could reach for, and when he did, he heard the message again. His breathing came faster and harder.
    Jason was the first to react.
    “What the fuck?”

    ***

    Or,

    The Justice League has missed something catastrophic and tragic in equal measure.

    Good thing this is just the sort of mystery Red Robin likes to sink his claws into.

    Summary

    Danny moves to Gotham for college. Only to immediately and frequently traumatize the local vigilante population. Is this enough to count him as a rogue?

    Summary

    Many thanks to Ari & Ciss who are helping me a TON. Based on a Tumblr post I can't find.
    -
    Tim Drake is assigned to investigate a ghost cult. Not a big deal, really, until you consider he's sent with Damian Wayne, an assasin who tried to kill him less than a year ago who he is expected to befriend because they're "brothers".
    What follows is as much as a mystery as a romance for Tim, and Damian, Dick, and Bruce finally learn actions have consequences- and they can't make Tim fix everything.
    -
    "Two lives are too many. I can return one of you- but you must choose."
    The abnormally grainy footage didn't allow lip reading, but body language transmitted well. There was Tim stepping forward, and Damien- he said something, had to from the way Tim bent in pain. There was a back and forth between the two before Tim took another step to the king.
    "Some heroes," the king said, "I see only one here. I'll return you, as promised."
    To Tim, he said, "a hero was sacrificed, so I must accept."

    "I want to know what was said between Damien and Tim," Bruce said, "and how to get Tim out. I need you to focus on finding any way to get to him without sacrificing soneone."
