Summary
"I need a lift. Down at the Keystone docks. Ran into some car trouble."
Barry wonders if this is a prank call. Maybe Snart's drunk. He doesn't sound drunk, he doesn't even sound tired, if anything his voice is strained and low-key annoyed, but who knows? Maybe that's how Captain Cold gets after a few glasses of whiskey.
(Of late night phone calls, non-standard first aid, and the value of patience.)

Summary
"Right. The Flash has to take care of his city." Sarcastic condescension drips from Snart's words, making it crystal clear what he thinks of Barry's sense of duty. He raises an eyebrow. "Who's gonna take care of the Flash, then?"

He didn't move. Didn't blink. Barely breathed, but did it steadily, rapid little puffs too calm for panic.
He laid still and thought of nothing.

Summary
“Dabi. Untie him.”
Katsuki’s heart leaps. Holy shit, can it be that easy…?
“He’ll go wild, for sure,” says flame quirk - Dabi? - entirely unimpressed. Katsuki’s eye twitches.
“It’s okay,” Shigaraki says, all smug-sounding again. “We gotta treat him as an equal. We’re scouting him, after all. And before he throws a tantrum, our little U.A. student should be smart enough to know he can’t win. Not alone.”
The absolute asshole.
“Yeah? Bring a few more guys and it might actually be a fair fucking fight.”

Training Camp AU. When the League of Villains starts working on converting Bakugou the night he arrives rather than two days later, Dabi has a crisis of conscience. (An unexpected buddy fic between a reluctant vigilante!Dabi and a twice-kidnapped!Bakugou)

Summary
The next time the woman appears, he manages to entrap her in a quick web of spellwork. As she struggles in the spells, he approaches with a dagger loose in his hand.
“Who are you?” he says. “How did you come to be in Thanos’s service?”
The woman goes still. She tilts her head at him. “Who's Thanos?”
Instead of going back to Asgard after nearly dying on Svartalfheim, Loki goes wandering. This is a far more dangerous choice, and Loki is stalked by agents of Thanos, looking to recapture him and return him to Sanctuary, to answer for his failures on Earth.
And a mysterious sorceress, who has a much more vested interest in his death than the others. Curious.
aka, Hela breaks out her prison a little earlier, and attempts to eliminate threats to her rule.

Soft Spot by PhenixFlare
Soft Spot by PhenixFlare
Bill gradually becomes attached to the fluffy, four-legged ball of anxiety that he picked up (more like abducted, but semantics) out in the woods, which of course doesn't make him any less of a violent, murderous asshole - even if it does leave him with a Dipper-shaped soft spot.
Fluffy off-shoot of Should've Run Faster, originally only posted on Tumblr.
Shameless Sap by PhenixFlare
Assorted drabbles set in my Soft Spot (platonic Hunter Bill and Deerper) continuity, originally posted only on Tumblr. Most of them are, as indicated, shameless sap.
Shame is for other people.
Someone To Keep Me Warm (When It's Cold Outside) by PhenixFlare
Bill refuses to get into the spirit of the season and wants nothing to do with this holiday bullshit. Dipper is persistent on celebrating past the point of self-preservation. This doesn't go over well.
Soft Spot-continuity, original posted on Tumblr last year on Christmas.

Summary
Tim curled up in a ball and shook with several, near-hyperventilating breaths. Jason clenched his hands into fists.
“Hood?” came Nightwing’s tentative check-in, “How’s everything going?”
I’m trapped under a building, he didn’t say. Tim thinks I’m going to murder him, he didn’t say. Get me out of here before I claw my own skin off, he didn’t say.

Some good good Enemy (kind of) to Caretaker
-
Tags
Summary
Tim knew he was fucked if only for the way that his brain was chanting Jason, like a litany. So he definitely didn’t need to hear the cold, mechanical chuckle or the chillingly delighted 'lucky me' to know that this was not good.
He took a second to look down at his coffee mournfully.
Then, he threw it at Hood’s helmet and bolted down the Tower corridor.
Or: Tim is supposed to be at Gotham Academy for a parent-teacher conference. Hood has other plans (Titans Tower AU).

Tim, bound and gagged, listening to a group of people haggle over his fate, is hard-pressed to think of how this situation can get worse.
Then Hood walks in.
