    Summary

    They say that Humans cling to life like mold clings to bread. They say that even when the visible contamination is cut away, the mycelium remains. They say that after the Essempi Federation is no more, nothing will be left but wreckage and Humans.

    Excerpt:
    Humans have fairy-blood, they say. They eat poisons for fun and know when you lie just by looking at you. When you shake their hands they can see how you die.

    Centuries ago Humans called especially adept liars silver-tongued and now, a billion light years from Earth, Ted hears a Shulker call him fey-mouthed. Fey-mouths can’t tell a lie, the Shulker says in hushed tones to her companions, but will twist you up in the truth until you can’t tell up from down and leave with a fulfilled bargain you would never agree to in a thousand years.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Hands down a favorite, even if the author is adamant about dumping more trauma in your lap, you thank them for it. Especially when they do more than just dump it there, they go "you know what, I'm going to have all of my characters confront and overcome their trauma in a realistic manner, deal with it"

    Summary

    After a nation-wide scandal and the entire league of heroes swooping in for the ‘rescue’, the Syndicate was finally thrown away to where they belonged, a prison cell.

    Everyone already knew they were going to escape, it was inevitable.

    But he doesn't want to believe it, want to go back to that life, to a life of no self preservation, to a life of being someone's, instead of being himself, being Tommy.

    He tries not to think about how their impending freedom means the loss of his.
    --------
    or; The Syndicate is probably the most powerful crime institution in history, a group scaped with villainy who was recently captured in an ambush and whisked away to the fortified walls of Pandora's Vault, to hopefully never see the light of day again.

    Tommy is just the kid they left behind when they were sent away, the kid who they took a few years back, who was promised he was theirs, and was ripped away just like that.

    The nation is on their toes, just waiting for the day they eventually escape. Tommy doesn't think he could dread it more.

    Holy shit, can delve into some believable but screwed mindsets and still enjoy the family feels. Creepy though they may be.

    Summary

    Jason's been stuck on this drug case for a whole month and he's got nothing. That is, until his tiny, anxious ex-neighbor shows up at his safehouse with a backpack full of evidence saying that the entire drug operation is being run by his parents.

    Tim figured out that his parents were big-time drug traffickers at age nine, but when people start dying and Batman won't listen to him, the only available option is the Red Hood, who's just as likely to shoot him as he is to help him. That's why it's such a surprise when Tim shows up at his safehouse and Gotham's most undead and dangerous vigilante invites him in for spaghetti dinner.

    Almost too good but it tickles that need for found family via absurd (but believable) gotham shenanigans
