    Summary

    The hit resonates above the noise of the city. His head snaps to the side, eyes forced to the cracked concrete below. He can feel the blood beading where her ring has carved into his cheek and it stings under her touch but the vitriolic Arabic that so sharply rolls off her tongue right after cuts so much deeper.

    "You are an only child, Ibn al Xu'ffasch."

    Her nails dig into his jaw, forcing his head up to meet her eyes. "You have always been an only child. You'd do well to remember that."

    A part of him resents her for calling him the sole heir. Splinters at the idea he was born alone. Another wonders if she is right. If he can even call himself a brother anymore when his is scattered, thousands of miles away, ashes in an unmarked grave.

     

    ". . . I understand, Mother."

    ---

    AKA - Damian was a twin, once. But the League has no need for two heirs, and as far as he knows the Bat must only need one son. So when he is sent to live with his father, it is not merely blood relation that makes him refuse the idea of new family. Not that they know this.

    Summary

    The Metkayina are a perceptive people; they watch with greater focus than the Omatikaya or humans. They pay attention to small nuances in both the people and their surroundings. They understand the water and it's creatures because they grow up taking in information most people might not even notice.

    To them Spider is new and strange; so they watch him. They worry that he will be cruel, set their Maruis on fire, or attack their ilu. What they find out is that this boy is actually quite intelligent, tireless, and always trying to help; a promising young warrior. He does more chores in the village than any other youth. He seeks to not hold a weapon and is always around when more help is needed. He gathers, weaves, and hunts for the clan. He provides.

    But he is also clearly very lonely. He cares for others- but no one cares for him. The Sullies are not his family, so... The boy is free to join another? Right? And who wouldn't want another child, especially such a mentally strong one.

    Summary

    Footsteps pass by his door, pausing to knock. Sometimes it’s Grayson. Sometimes it’s Father. He ignores them all, their queries about wanting signs of life and their pathetic attempts to try and coax him out to spend time with them, and shifts to lie on his side. Curled up on the floor, back pressed to the door, he feels a chill not even the heaviest of blankets can get rid of.

    It is lonely in this manor.

    When Damian came to live with his father, it's nothing like the life he expected it to be. As he struggles to find his place in the family and navigate life outside of the League, help comes in the form of his older brother who's goal is to ensure Damian settles into the life he was meant to live.

    Because for all he was taught, Damian was never taught how to be a child.

    Summary

    "I'm your father," he replies gently.

    "F-ather," Damian repeats clumsily. He knows what the word means, but he can't associate it with an experience. Now that he thinks about it, he has zero experiences to draw from. His mind is an empty void. He does not know who he is, aside from his name, and he does not know what he is supposed to do.

    "That's right," his father hums in agreement. "I'm your father, you're my son, and now you're home."

    Summary

    “He found himself wondering if anyone would notice before the spell was up. It seemed unlikely; there were often stretches where contact was limited between him and his family. Normally, it was not born from necessity but rather strife. And perhaps strife would bleed from this.

    He hoped not.”

    When a confrontation with a powerful magic user goes awry, Damian is cursed, robbing him of his voice. Or, communicate without a fresh bruise appearing, that is.

    What begins as an inconvenience quickly spirals into something far worse, as he finds himself struggling with the mounting realization: no one has noticed. As his silence deepens, so do the rifts with his family. He’s not helped by the many more sinister theories the people around him assume because of his new temperament.

    One thing is certain: he really, really hates magic.

    Summary

    “If you're gonna sit at a table, you gotta play,” Husk says.  “House rules.”

    “Oh, that ain't my game,” Angel Dust says, fussing with his fluffy bangs. His mismatched eyes are bright under all the flashing neon in the casino.

    “Not interested in gambling your soul away?”

    Husk feels like a heel as soon as he says it, but Angel Dust laughs.  “Ain't mine to gamble.”

    Self-contained, crotchety Overlord Husk, the gambling king of the pride ring, has never been interested in famous jack-of-all-sex-trades Angel Dust. But when he visits Valentino's club as a favor to a friend and meets Angel for the first time, he feels sparks — and he's not the only one. As their fragile friendship inches toward something more, the two become entangled in a dangerous game of politics and princesses, jealous overlords and deadly vices, and the stakes have never been higher.

    Summary

    Damian would admit that he often found himself alone. His family was busy after all. He was capable of living well enough alone. It shouldn’t be a problem.

    It was never a problem.

    Then a woman in black appeared right in front of him one day.

    ---

    or a type of demoness known for preying on unloved and lonely children sets its eyes on Damian, and he thinks it's the type of problem that should be dealt with on his own.

    The batfamily would like to differ... right?

    Summary

    Only a mage driven to insanity or desperation burned their own tissues for seidr.
    Loki had far too much experience with both and even he wasn't fool enough.
    But the Norns had never had mercy for the likes of Loki...

    Stripped of the body he'd always known, Loki is bound in his true form, that of a frost giant runt barely on the cusp of adolescence. Yet no one knows what lies under the false image of the disgraced second Prince of Asgard, certainly not Thor. Odin knows full well that Loki would not survive the truth of his lineage being uncovered, and he still had use of his stolen relic.
    However – weak from months in Asgard's dungeon after barely recovering from Svartalfheim and Thanos' ministrations – Loki is stolen from Asgard's dungeons by Thor. As the only known wielder of two Infinity Stones, the Avengers hope to use Loki to uncover the reason behind their appearance on Earth. Especially in light of the Mind Stone taken form as their newest ally: the Vision.
    But they are not the only ones who have use of a bound child mage.
    Fate has other priorities.

    Summary

    Whatever it was scaring Prince Zuko, apparently Sokka understood it, too. Shyu could hear the boy’s nervous gulp from across the brig.

    If it could scare the Avatar’s companion and the crown prince, Shyu knew it must be terrifying.

    “I have some questions about the Avatar,” Zhao drawled as he stood before Sokka’s cell. “And you will answer them if you know what’s good for you.”

    Despite the mounting fear in his eyes, Sokka lifted his chin in desperate defiance as he crossed his arms and stood upright. “And when I don’t answer them?”

    Zhao smiled.

    Sokka tried to rescue Sage Shyu from the collapse of Roku's temple. Instead he, Shyu, and Zuko were all captured by Commander Zhao.

    And Zhao never wastes an opportunity.

    Angel Dust is left to deal with the realisation of Vox controlling him to be a spy for the hotel but now stuck as a prisoner along with Alastor and the King of Hell, maybe he isn’t as alone as he thinks he is.

    or: i think Angel Dust needs some comfort after episode 7 and who better to give it to him than the two most emotionally unaware demons in all of Hell?

    Summary

    He survived two-and-a-half years as General Fong’s training dummy, months as Zhao’s prisoner, and weeks as a captive aboard the Chief of the Southern Water Tribe’s ship, all the while refusing to let his father’s cold, firelit eyes be the last he saw of the man. There was no way these children would keep him from going home.

    "Yes," Zuko lied. 'I’ll help you defeat my father."

    Or: After three years of imprisonment, Zuko escapes, just in time to arrive at the climax of the Invasion of Ba Sing Se. From there, he travels with the Avatar's team - first as a political prisoner and then, maybe (and indignantly), as Aang's firebending teacher.

    (Zuko wonders why Agni let him suffer in the cold for so many years only to make him the Avatar's mentor. Destiny is a cruel, complicated thing. It takes him a while to figure out his.)
