Summary
Years ago, Damian Wayne and Jon Kent were inseparable—until a brutal falling out tore them apart. Words were said, lines were crossed, and they haven’t spoken since. Damian buried his emotions beneath the cold efficiency of his training, while Jon threw himself into his work as Metropolis’s new protector, rising in his father’s shadow.
But when intel reaches Damian that the League of Shadows has marked Jon for assassination, something long-dormant stirs. Damian doesn’t hesitate. He disappears from Gotham and reappears in Metropolis like a ghost, just in time to stop the first attack.
Jon is furious. Confused. And still heartbreakingly familiar.
Old habits die hard. Old wounds heal slower. And the League won’t wait for them to figure it out.

Summary
This was the worst job Lydia had ever been assigned.
She understood that now. Balancing the needs of her thane and the demands on him by the people around him was impossible. She had watched him over the last few weeks work himself thin, bow and bend to the will of his companions, to do everything he could to please the people around him. He was too kind, too gentle, too- too heroic. There was barely a selfish bone in his body. He would not put his needs above those of anyone else, burning himself thin until he was on the verge of collapse.
She had all but begged the steward Aslfur not to wake them, it was the first time any of them had gotten sleep- real sleep- in weeks. Watching Alinor come shuffling out past the great wooden door to his room in naught but his pajamas, so tired and yet ready to take on the worlds problems.
It felt bad.
It felt like she could not keep him from burning himself up for the sake of honor, for duty.

Sleeping in the digital circus wasn’t something you really needed, but it was something everyone did. You wouldn’t feel any different if you decided to go to bed or not, but everyone still treated it as a something important.

Gerri is trying to move on. She tells herself it was just business. That Roman was a mistake she didn’t make. But the silence between them is deafening, and she can’t stop wondering if it ever meant more than it should have.

Summary
Lyre wouldn't necessarily consider herself destined for trouble, but somehow, it always found her at the worst possible moments. A well earned, new promotion within the Icarus Corporation brings her a little closer to finally feeling like she's made it, like she's achieved something better all on her own. No strings, no favors, just hard work and determination.
Marcus finds himself living in a familiar city, though it’s one with a history he'd rather forget. Employed by Deimos, a shadowy private military contractor, Marcus's walks a very thin line between staying in the light or falling to the dark. An unexpected turn of events will test his resolve and force him to hold on to his sanity, his humanity, for as long as he possibly can.
While untangling security footage, Lyre inadvertently stumbles upon classified corporate information, secrets they would no doubt kill to keep hidden from the public eye. Unfortunately for Lyre, her curiosity triggers a chain of events that will alter the course of her life, Marcus’s, and the fate of all humankind as they know it.

“It’s all just… remnants of a time gone by.” You shrug bitterly. “I wonder if that’s what I’ll end up becoming too, after all of this.”
“This?”
“Yeah, the team, the parties, the missions - the ‘great glory’ as Alexei puts it. Will I just… end up painted over? Used as some conversation starter? Everything about me just reduced to a spot in some pretty display case for people to marvel at over their champagne?”

Summary
"What would be the strangest most unorthodox fic I could write...?"
"Two things that are not supposed to be together, together"
"Marvelous..any ideas?"
"The Owl house and Elden Ring/Dark souls."
"...."
"What?"
"Think about it, the whole premise of Dark souls is to regain humanity..kinda, imagine like Luz being a kinda unique hollow, conquering the world and its dangers, fully restoring her humanity..and then traveling to the Isles.."
"That sounds like a really stupid idea..."
"Yes......"Preview:
"Helloo..how are you doing today?""Uaeaeergsgs"
Luz nodded in understanding, sometimes she felt pretty 'Uaeaeergsgs', herself, but unless she counted trying to attack her, they did nothing else, but she bet they were pretty happy with their lives..soo they had that going for them.
----
It was when she was rising on the dark staircase that she heard a swishing sound and then an arrow impacted her forehead.'Really?' She thought as she felt her body falling backwards.
It appeared that this retarded brother was at least bow capable and accurate..IF he had been aiming for her head...if this was supposed to be like a warning shoot than he sucked!
