    Summary

    “You’re doing it again,” Bruce says, tone accusatory. “You’re faking.”

    “It’s not faking,” Dick snaps, a little more aggressive than he means to be. But he doesn’t like that word, doesn’t like the connotations.

    (Especially when he knows Bruce is lying about something, too.)

    “Then what is it?”

    “It’s called being charming and it’s nice.”

    -_-

    Dick’s mother raised her son to be a star. Dick’s father raised his son to be an athlete.

    Bruce's new ward is charming (manipulative), dedicated (obsessive), and way, way too smart for either of their own good.

    “I see you have a new addition to the family,” Bella says, smiling at the group pushing their father along toward the plaza stairs.

    Summary

    The pings were all from Overse’s interface and routed from a transit ring called Trans-All, the kind of ping that was just are you in range – are you in range – are you in range. It was a call for help and it fucking terrified me, because I was answering it way, way too late.

    Summary

    The Red Hood shows up in New York. This turns out to be particularly inconvenient when he intersects with the White Collar division's latest case. But it's most inconvenient for Neal, who has absolutely no reason at all to be friends with a known serial killer, crime lord, and Gotham villain.

    (Or: Dick wasn't expecting to run into Jason while working on a money laundering case. He really, really wasn't expecting to end up explaining his relationship with Jason to Peter.)

    Summary

    What Sasuke Uchiha wants is an indeterminate EC-02 Step 2 position with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation that offers a decent salary, health benefits, paid vacation, and a manager who won't break all his Excel spreadsheets. What he gets is Naruto Uzumaki, an improbably attractive and unbearably annoying co-op student who eats way too much instant ramen and doesn't understand that "casual Friday" doesn't mean varsity sweatpants.
