Summary
“I had a baby. Did you know that? She’s not mine anymore, but-”
Bruce - because there’s no way she’s calling him Batman in her head while on her deathbed - puts his gloved hand just over the tips of her fingers, and Steph can’t help but wonder who of the two of them he’s trying to comfort. It’s a mean thought, but she is having trouble remembering to keep it optimistic. Must be a side effect of dying.
“Don’t worry, Stephanie. She’ll never want for anything, I promise.”
Or; this started out as four moments where Stephanie and each of the Robins talk about pregnancy. accidental plot happened along the outlining.

Playing audio...
Jason's laughter has turned into breathless, silent cries. Damian barrels on, seemingly unbothered by his state.
"-And during all this I'm trying to subtly switch back to using people's actual names; except it fucking backfired because people just assumed I was calling Richard 'Richard' because we had that special parental mentor bond, and Tim had pissed off to- whatever he was doing in the desert for six months- getting a hysterectomy or whatever the fuck happened-"
"Hysterectomy-" Jason repeats, shrill. "He lost a spleen, Dames."

Summary
When an unexpected light appears after the ceremony in the Sacred Grounds, Zelda has a momentary flash of hope that she's awakened her powers somehow—but she's disappointed and startled when it forms into the shape of a man and a child before disappearing.
The man immediately stands between them and the little girl, and Zelda is startled to see how familiar he is.
He looks just like her newly appointed knight. Almost, but not quite: He’s older than he should be, for starters.

Summary
Jason's on the trail of a killer who's targeting kids in Crime Alley for an unknown magical ritual. Between that and his family who insists on butting in, he's got his work cut out for him. But, as they say, nothing is as it seems.
Magic doesn’t come to Gotham.
Which is simplifying it. Because, well, magic isn’t allowed in Gotham, first off. But also, it really doesn’t want to come to Gotham. Of all the things the Bat tries to keep out, magic is the easiest because magic wants to stay as far away from the city as possible. Zatanna called it a “cesspit of untamed ambient magic,” which was being nice even with calling it a cesspit. The last time some asked Constantine about Gotham he just laughed, lit his cigarette, and walked away.

Summary
Post-Winter High. Over winter break, meeting up in Tokyo for a street ball game seems at least…marginally normal. The problem? Half a dozen friendships broken in half a dozen different ways equals a whole lot of jumbled emotions, especially regarding one Akashi Seijuurou. Kagami Taiga, as per usual, remains unfazed.
In which Akashi finds himself as the moth to a flame for a change…and it's surprisingly not so bad. One-offs can turn into some pretty intense things, who knew?
Mentions of Mibuchi/Akashi, Kagami/Kuroko, and a few other very brief relationship things.

Summary
The news that Timothy Drake, Gotham’s cryptid millionaire, has shot the Joker dead during a public live-stream hits the world like a freight train—and that is just the opening salvo of his bugfuck plan.
Maybe there exists, in the multiverse, a configuration of Jason Todd who will weather this with decorum, dignity and self-respect. This version of Jason Todd decides that the life of an academic is not, really, all that rewarding. In contrast, the life of Timothy Drake’s live-in house-husband is looking more appealing by the second.

A familiar redheaded child darts across the bullpen with a shout of “PAPA!” and barrels into Jason’s arms.
“Lian–” He breathes.
Jason's undercover work as Neal Caffrey is difficult for several reasons. He didn't anticipate that single parenting would be one of them, though.
