    Summary

    Over Rumi's arm, crawling up her shoulder and to her neck, were dull, dark purple patterns. They were unmistakable. They couldn't be anything else.

    Around them, the honmoon rippled; the patterns flashed in time with it, a wave of vibrant pink pulsing through them and closing in on the injury, only for the glow to be repelled and spread outwards instead.

    The cold dread from before was back, pressing its frigid fingers to her spine. Her limbs were suddenly too heavy to move. Her brain buzzed with thousands of thoughts, too loud for any specific one to stand out.

    It didn't make sense. It wasn't possible.

    But then, neither was her shin-kal cutting Rumi.

    Honmoon weapons only killed demons. It was the reason Zoey could take risks with throwing her shin-kals—even if she did hit someone, the worst it could do was bruise.

    So why was Rumi bleeding?

    Summary

    Katniss would’ve never thought that she might make money out of her voice, the idea of anyone in Twelve paying for something as unnecessary as a song seems ridiculous but as it turns out, music is something everyone needs a little of.

    With her dad’s old guitar, a few dusty dresses that apparently belonged to some of his cousins and aunts and the songs seared into her memory, Katniss starts unknowingly stepping into the shoes of long forgotten performers and singers whilst also constantly running into her Boy with the Bread making cake deliveries and awakening something in her.

    Her discovery of her Covey heritage also gets her involved with the Revolution, becoming a voice for the people of all Districts… and the ghosts Snow thought long buried.

    —————

    Katniss accidentally becomes a Covey Girl (and we know Covey Girls love harder than anyone else) and the Mockingjay (songbird edition)

    Summary

    Bruce doesn’t know what’s wrong with his child, but he’s pretty sure kids aren’t meant to work like this.

     

    From the day he had looked up into the tops of the circus tent and saw a frightened mirror image of a boy who had just experienced the worst day of his life, Bruce had instantly gone into emergency mode.

     

    The Gotham PD had wanted to pass the boy off into the care of the circus. The circus had mumbled underneath their breaths about superstitions, about not having a boy like that with them, about not being able to handle something like Dick. So GCPD, not knowing what to do, had started talking about one of the handful of overburdened boy homes that handles a majority of Gotham’s unlucky orphans.

     

    All the while, the camera lights flash bright and loud, wanting to know everything.

     

    Bruce couldn’t let that happen.

     

    Not then, not ever again.

    -🦇-

    Bruce is trying his best to protect the city that he loves. He doesn't know how exactly his Robins came to be- they're not fully human, not even at all. All he knows is that he wants to keep them safe.

    Summary

    The Green Lantern Corps has a few main rules: make sure your ring has enough charge before getting into shit, keep your will strong, don't start any interplanetary political incidents, and don't land on any unexplored planets. At least Hal was going for 2/4 today? That was 50%?

    Or, Hal Jordan and the Justice League crashland on an unexplored alien planet. Unexplored, as in its natural bacteria and pathogens haven't been catalogued and added to the standard interplanetary travel vaccine yet. Hal knows just how dangerous that is. Unknown bacteria is potentially one of the deadliest things in the universe, since they have no idea what it does or how to combat it. And his ring being almost dead really doesn't make this any better. So yeah, Hal's slightly losing it.

    Oh, did he mention that the Justice League is missing?

    Summary

    Rank and file lines of soldiers, all in the same gray brown uniforms, their faces digitally blurred march past the camera. She can't hear the news caster, and doesn't read the subtitles. The details aren't really important to her right now. She doesn't have the space to think about the context.

    All Nile sees really, is the familiar outline of desert mountains behind the parade of soldiers.

    They're still the same. She doesn't know why she thought they'd look different.

     

    Nile struggles with her past. Nicky helps. There's also some cliff-diving.

    Summary

    They have just made it through the syllabus and started on actual instruction when, with twenty-five minutes left, the fire alarm goes off. 

    “Probably a drill,” says Mercedes. 

    “Not on the first day,” Vidal counters. “Some clown pulled the alarm.” 

    “Or some clown set a fire,” Mercedes says, cheerfully. 

    Nile sighs before she can stop herself. “I wasn’t planning on dying today, and I’d rather not,” she mutters in English. 

    Isidra snorts, packing away her things. “You millennials and your gallows humor.” 

    Nile lets herself laugh at that, but not as long as she’d like to.

    “I can’t wait to enter my crone phase.”

    “I’m sorry,” Nile said. “Your what?

    “My crone phase.” Andy grinned from where she was sprawled on the couch, her feet in Joe’s lap. “Everyone wants to be young and hot these days, but the real power is in age. When you’re old enough that no one expects you to be pretty or charming or nurturing anymore, and you get to just be a crusty old hag who doesn’t give a shit what anyone thinks.”

    Joe looked up from his drawing. “But Andy, you already – “ The couch cushion hit him in the face before he could finish. He shielded his head with the sketchbook in anticipation of further attacks. “I just meant you don’t care what people think!”

    “He’s got a point,” said Nile. “Yeah, you’ll get grey hair and wrinkles, but you’re kind of already there otherwise.”

     

    It is, of course, more complicated than that.

    Summary

    “You’ve sighed five times in the last half-hour, Nile,” Joe prods.

    “What? No, I haven’t,” Nile protests half-heartedly. Has she been that obvious? Joe just raises an eyebrow and turns his sketchbook towards her so she can see the little cartoon he’s drawn of her, flopping to the ground dramatically with a huge “SIGH” speech bubble floating over her head. She laughs at it, because it is quite funny, before shrugging a shoulder.

    “It’s stupid. Now that I’m going to say it out loud, it sounds stupid.”

    Nicky sits up a little straighter and turns his body toward her. “Tell us anyway.”

    “It’s just…” Nile pauses and looks around the Buenos Aires condo they’ve been in for the past three weeks, past the gauzy curtains blowing in the mild summer breeze, and out the window to the view of Recoleta beyond. “It’s January. Where I’m from, January means lake-effect snow and negative windchill, sweaters and warm socks, soup and hot cocoa. Winter. It means winter.”

    “Ah,” Joe says succinctly, following her gaze out the window to the summer Argentine sunshine.

    Summary

    She was torn in half once, burned alive, and still that didn’t hurt the way this does now, refusing to let her think about anything except the way her entire body is screaming at her, constant, inescapable. She breathes and it hurts, shifts her weight slightly and it hurts, moves her eyes and it hurts. Is this how mortals live? She has forgotten entirely what it is to have pain that lasts.
    -
    Or, Nile is still working things out, Nicky isn't sure of anything, Joe is tired, and Andromache of Scythia starts to learn, at six thousand years old, how to handle pain.

    Sometimes, Aziraphale finds himself wondering what the Nephilim could have accomplished if God’s flood hadn’t wiped away all trace of them from the face of the earth. Every century or so, he gets his answer, even if he doesn’t know it.

    or

    The Old Guard meets Good Omens. It’s a small world, and a handful of immortals running around are bound to cross paths with Earth’s resident angel and demon at some point in history. Perhaps more often than they realize.

    Summary

    The whole place looked like a slightly deranged mash up of different styles and time periods. The front door was heavy wood set in a foundation of stone, but barely three feet to the left the stone suddenly became weathered brick and rose up two stories, some of the brick extending out over the solid stone of the entrance. On the other side was a single story expansion which was also in stone, but of a completely different style than the initial foundation. Comically plopped on top of that was another floor of just huge glass windows, sort of similar to Copley’s place, looking ridiculous and modern on top of the old stone just below it.


    Or, Nile is not very good with kitchen knives, Nicky still has allergies (despite what he says), Joe is really into paper making, Andy can apparently play every instrument known to man, and Booker does care about his family. Oh, and they all cheat at cards.
