    What are brothers for?

    Summary

    The man sighs heavily. "I guess you're right." He turns back to Aiden, bright smile back in place. "My apologies, dear witcher, it seems I've forgotten my manners." He offers Aiden his hand to shake with a flourish. "I am the bard Jaskier, graduate of Oxenfurt and Master of the Seven Liberal Arts.

    What.

    Aiden forces himself to take his hand in a firm shake despite the shock that's numbing his limbs. "Aiden," he says, flashing his teeth in a smile. "You're the Toss a Coin bard, right?" Aiden says, like Lambert didn't spend his whole winter bullying Geralt into agreeing to a late spring meet-up and then ditched Aiden for it specifically for the chance that the bard standing in front of Aiden right now would be there.

    Sweet Melitele, Lambert is going to hate him when they meet back up next week. This is amazing.

    Or: Aiden meets Jaskier when he least expect it. He promptly decides that if anything ever happened to him, he would kill everyone in this town and then himself. Which would be a shame, considering that this strange town has been so unexpectedly kind to him.

    Summary

    He’s nine again– nine and new and knows so many things now so rather than try to go back–

    He thinks he has the chance to make things right.

    The bright blue trainers he puts on are a pair he hasn’t worn in forever, something he never thought about after he grew out of them (will grow out of?) a year from now, and sets off into the night and into the rain.

    The plan he has in his brain is not really a plan, moreso just a couple of half thrown ideas and maybe five steps into building back the life he had in the most painless way he could.

    Maybe, he thinks, maybe this plan can start off with the family he misses– because he’s sixty and most of them too injured or too old or too dead–

    Call him selfish but he misses them. He would rather find them than get himself back into that lonely existence he called a life before he woke up at nine.

    Dick makes do because that’s all he can do really.

    -🦇-

    Dick gets sent back in time, but don't worry, he's got this. (Probably)

    Summary

    “I—” Batman starts, fumbles. “Don’t hurt him, he’s just a child, he doesn’t have anything to do with this.”

    Clark looks between them. The alley. The way that Batman has been skirting in the shadows the entire night, trying to get away, before realizing that he couldn’t. He only confronted Clark when he gave up. Oh, Clark realizes, and feels all the anger drain from his body in one sweeping blow, the kid. He thought I was going to hurt him and the kid.

    His kid.

    AKA: After Lois gets hurt because of something Batman did, Superman goes to Gotham to talk. Bruce, however, is convinced that Superman is here to hurt him. To hurt Robin.
