Lifetime Collections (ID+): Diff-abilities
Fics where one or more characters has a disability or difference, whether physical or mental/neurological (sometimes even fantastical!).
A mix of non-canon disabilities (either lifelong or acquired), with varying levels of canon-compliance (e.g. neurodivergent interpretations of a character, vs amputation, etc) & fics focusing/expanding on a Canon disability or difference (e.g. Hawkeye's deafness, Daredevil's blindness, Tim Drake's missing spleen, DiNozzo's plague lungs, etc).

Summary
The second Robin's introduction to the Team is disrupted by the sudden appearance of two young men from another world. That would be enough to make Batman invested, but when he finds out one of them used to be a Robin, there's no holding him back.
Tim and Kon are doing their best to settle into the new world where everyone seems just that little bit lighter and softer. It's not easy, particularly as Tim deals with the aftermath of devastating injuries, but being surrounded by loving family and friends makes things easier.
If along the way they can prevent a few tragedies and bring home some siblings, all the better.

Summary
Jason has put his life back together just in time to see the whole world fall apart. As the pandemic spreads across Gotham, he's struggling to maintain his new and fragile equilibrium in the face of two separate pressure points:
One, he's back working in Bruce's restaurant while his own joint's launch seems to be dying before it can even get off the ground, frustrated and beset by relationships still fraught with trauma. And two, he's walked back into a Gotham he can barely recognize, with people locked down in their homes, the streets paved with fear of a choking, ugly, infectious death, and an attack on Alfred that he can't avenge.
With the high stress, high stakes world of haute cuisine combined with the Wayne family drama in daylight and pounding empty streets feeling like an idiot in armor watching people die at night, it's only a matter of time before he cracks for good.
Then, suddenly, he gets a reprieve.
One night a vigilante food truck rolls up to his corner of the world, offering Red Hood a shot at redemption.
And during the day, there's the Table's new pot scrubber, Tim Drake, who might need some redemption of his own...

Summary
In a world of scientifically proven psychic abilities, the practitioners - the so-called Talents - are called on to serve the public good. This is never more true than in Gotham, where the Wayne Parapsychic Institute works diligently for justice and peace in what is otherwise a mecca of rogue Talents. Bruce Wayne is one of the most powerful Talents on record; a Prime. So are all his children. All, that is, except for Tim Drake; a winged donkey to their high-flying Pegasus. Fed up with the constant reminders that he will never be able to catch up to their flight into the stars and beyond, he leaves.
Trying to put the shattered pieces of his life together, he comes across Jason Todd; former member of the Wayne Parapsychic Institute and a powerhouse in terms of Talent, alive in an asylum years after everyone assumed him dead.
Tim is determined to help Jason find a way back. Jason might end up teaching him a way forward.

Summary
When what should have been a straight forward mission in Hell's Kitchen goes pear shaped due to lack of communication, teaching his teammates sign language seems like a logical step to Clint. Communication when their comms are down - great plan! And including the local vigilante, who's been working closely with them on this, is a real no-brainer.
Until it turns out said vigilante is an asshole that thinks sign language is beneath him, judging by the way he's stubbornly refusing to learn it.
(Conversely - Matt's trying, he really is but damn it, those two signs are exactly the same... what do you mean they mean completely different things?!)
