Summary
When he confided in the working girls one quiet Tuesday night, they each soothed his fears in turn, telling him, “no honey, what you have there is a blessing,” with a somewhat sad smile.
But Jason instead thought himself cursed. What else would someone call having the power to hurt everyone close to you with the softest of touches and the most gentle of whispers? What else would someone call having the ability to kill someone with a word, whether intentionally or the horrible otherwise?
What else could he call it when he remembered how the burning anger on his father’s face had suddenly disappeared? Replaced by abject apathy at Jason’s hand and his shouted command. Except it hadn’t been a command, nor a plea, only the angry words of a scared child. He hadn’t meant them, not really. Not literally.
Yeah. Jason wouldn’t call that a blessing.
–
Or; Jason Todd is a meta. That makes everything different. Sort of.

Summary
“If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that with the right amount of pressure, anyone can be broken,” Beck says with relish. “And I have a feeling that Pete isn’t going to be too happy when I reveal exactly what he’s done to the poor, damaged, oh so heroic mentor he’s been giving the cold shoulder for a week. The guilt will eat your precious Peter alive, if everything goes right. And everything will go right this time.”
Once again Tony tries to maneuver the bulky armor but its movements are out of his control. Which means he’s nothing more than a helpless bystander right now—a pawn for Beck to use against Peter for his own nefarious purposes.
“Almost showtime, Stark,” Beck says giddily into his ear. “Gonna be one hell of a finale. I do apologize in advance that you won’t be here for the encore. But hopefully you’ll enjoy the show before exiting stage right.”
Inside the suit, Tony silently screams.

Summary
Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.
In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.
Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.
But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.

Summary
“Because he’s a monk, genius. He works on Air Temple Island.”
Katara’s mouth rounds. She’s not entirely sure why she’s shocked. Aang being a monk seems rather obvious, now, given the shaved head and tattoos, but she supposes it must be his age. Every Air Nomad monk she’s met— of which there hasn’t been many, admittedly— has been old, gray, and wizened.
And, objectively, she thinks, glancing at him. Gray eyes flick away. Not as good-looking.
Or:
This is a love story.
