Forgive Me My Weakness, But I Don't Know Why by Biromantic_Nerd for dustorange

Summary
But there's just something so nice about being submerged in warmth that he can't bring himself to change it. It's just so nice to be warm - and it's not like the warmth of a hoodie or a thick pair of winter jeans. It's better. Softer. Warmer.
It doesn't just warm him up on the outside; there is something inside of him that thaws. And every day he doesn't realize there's something frozen there that needs to be thawed until it does.

Summary
His alarm woke him far too soon. Well, actually, no it didn't. It woke him exactly when it was supposed to. But it just felt like it was too soon, was the thing. The warmth of his blankets was like a siren call and he - the foolish smitten sailor - leaned into the allure and burrowed deeper. Five minutes, he swore. Just five.

Summary
Today, just as it has always been in these years of doing this, he enters the room and approaches the couch. Bruce glances over the novel in his hands and then resumes reading, now with a small smile. Dick climbs onto the couch with years of practice, snuggles close to Bruce in a way that isn't possible outside this parlor room, outside of this couch so beloved to Bruce first and now beloved to Dick as well. A family heirloom of emotional attachment.

Summary
Because if he is truly that terrible, then Hush should really just give up this imitation game of pretending to be someone he's not. Honestly. The hypocrisy here. Thomas Elliot really is trying to have his cake, belittle his cake, and then eat it too - even though absolutely no one invited him to this birthday party and Tommy should stop crashing it and just go home if he doesn't like the flavor of cake he's stealing.

calm water in the middle of an anxious sea by Biromantic_Nerd
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU
31 Mar 2021
Tags
Summary
Dick slides down the wall and leans his head back against the cool metal.
He just needs a moment. A moment to collect himself. He can't walk back into the medical ward like this, not like this; Damian will read the unease on his face in a second. He rubs his palms against his thighs because they feel clammy. He can't pull it together yet like he needs to do and so he should stay out until then. Until he can pull it together. He just needs a moment.

Summary
"Spit it out," Jason says as he eyes Dick warily after the others have left the dinner table but they've remained behind to talk.
"Hypothetically," Dick begins and ignores Jason's immediate groan that sounds upon hearing this introduction. Which is more than fair, really. Historically among their kind, there's never really a good hypothetical situation.

Whatever Lies Will Help You Rest by Biromantic_Nerd
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Teen Titans: Year One, DCU
26 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
He needs to create this disconnect. Dick Grayson is an orphan, but Robin can be anything so as long as no one can prove otherwise. All he has to do is keep people from finding out what is and isn't the truth and then anything about him can be true. Anything he wants. Who's to say if Robin creates fictitious stories that those stories aren't real? Who's to know? In any case, they'd have to prove it false; and no one, besides Bruce, knows how to best him at that.
Robin can be anything he wants to be. Anything he creates himself as. All it takes is a lie or two.
(Bad Things Happen Bingo Prompt 11: "That's Not Normal" + "Dick Grayson w/Titans" OR Robin lies to his friends, even when he doesn't have to, and believes it protects his secret identity)

Summary
"Oh, but, Peter," Norman crooned. Now that they were alone again, the malicious glee upon his face was only barely tempered by his delight. "I think it's well beyond time that you and I had a chat. Wouldn't you agree?"
"No," Peter answered. Faintly aware that it wasn't his choice to do so but that he probably would have said something similar anyways had he had a choice. That wasn't the point, wasn't what frightened him. It was that he didn't know how to stop these answers from escaping without his permission. "I really don't."

Summary
Her hand lifted and John and Dean struggled uselessly against the invisible force that now held them at bay. Dean's lips curled back from his teeth into a snarl. John closed his eyes for a brief, sorrowed moment as he registered how truly helpless he was in this. She then threw them against the wall and pinned them there.
"Now where was I? Oh yes. Sam." She grinned as the drawled name ignited a more urgent need to fight in the two men. They again thrashed to no avail.
