    Summary

    “If you don’t want to give me the answers I require, I can… simply…”

    Zuko grit his teeth so hard he thought he might’ve chipped a tooth. He wouldn’t scream. Not again.

    “... burn them out of you.”

    The one where Zuko finds home.

    Summary

    "We're going to be alcoholics by the time we're thirty," Sokka sighed.

    "You think we'll live to be thirty?" Zuko asked, honestly thrilled. Sokka had pretty good instincts. Perhaps Zuko should reevaluate his long term goals. He could start by having long term goals.

    A more likely alternative was that Sokka was just a hopeless optimist. It just went to show, you never truly saw another man until you stood shoulder to shoulder against a fleet of war balloons intent on raining death upon the city you loved.

     

    Zuko was just a normal guy with normal interests. He liked theatre, burglary, crotchety ostrich horses, watching the Blind Bandit crush her opponents in a glorious display of skill and violence... just your standard banished prince things. It wasn't his fault he kept stumbling into rebellions and uncovering long-buried secrets. Fine, maybe freeing the prisoners was on him, but he was completely innocent of all other treason. Zuko was his father's loyal son. He'd never betray his nation.

     

    Or:
    Uncle Iroh took a more creative approach to fostering Zuko's appreciation of other cultures. Now it's everyone's Problem.

    Summary

    ‘“You can’t go alone Harry,” Hermione said, trying to lift herself to her feet but giving up with a squeak, “You need help!”
    “No,” Harry said firmly, “This is my decision to run off to try and save Sirius, no one else’s - and you need help Hermione! Look at your ankle!”
    “How are you even getting there?” Ron demanded, “'Cause if you want to floo, it looks like we both need to go back up to the castle,” he cried triumphantly.
    The answer to his question came in the form of a sudden insistent tugging at the sleeve of Harry’s robe. He flinched back, and looked down to find the skeletal head of doe-eyed Thestral following the path of his hand in an attempt to lick off the blood that coated his arm. Harry froze for a minute, then grinned. He knew exactly how he was getting to London.’

    When Harry made the choice to leave his friends behind, and rescue Sirius from the Department of Mysteries on his own, he had never imagined what the consequences might be.

    Summary

    “Damian,” Bruce says, very slowly, “do you know someone named Jason Todd?”

    Damian frowns at him. “No?”

    “Real tall guy,” the Joker suddenly pipes up from the holding cell, “white streak in his hair. Kinda looks like Bruce Wayne, if you ask me!”

    Damian blinks. “Oh. Well, I do know a Jason that fits that description, but his last name is not Todd.”

    “What the hell is it then?”

    Damian frowns harder. “Al Ghul.”

    And just like that, Bruce’s worldview goes to complete and utter shit.

    Or: Jason decides that if someone has to be a monster in this world’s shadows, it might as well be him. This decision might’ve been influenced by the fact that Talia al Ghul decided to spring her son on him and also gaslight everyone into believing that Jason is her eldest child. Also, he kills his pseudo-grandfather and kind of accidentally becomes the new R’as al Ghul, because by now, he’s way too deep in Talia’s con-shit to back out.

    …It all goes over surprisingly well.

    Summary

    It wasn't enough to erase Peter Parker from everyone's minds. Magic like that doesn't last forever. So, to ensure the universe won't break again in the future, Peter was sent away, far from the place he called home.

    Where Peter starts over in a new universe, his life is flipped upside down, but one thing stays with him—his ability to fix things.

    Let's just say he takes the whole, Fixing, a little too far.
