    Summary

    It has been a year since Dick Grayson brutally killed the Joker and since Bruce brought him back.

    Now Dick has Blüdhaven, the Titans, Roy Harper, and enough distance from Gotham to pretend he isn’t still haunted by everything that came before. Then Blockbuster happens. Catalina Flores happens. And Dick finds himself drowning beneath the weight of it all over again.

    Naturally, this is also when some asshole in a red helmet...looking like a damn condom advertisement develops a personal vendetta against his family.

    Except Red Hood refuses to hurt Nightwing.

    And Dick, desperately in need of something else to think about, suddenly has a brand-new mystery to throw himself into.

    Who the fuck is this red condom wannabe?

    Summary

    This is a rewrite of my fic under the same name! I knew I could do a lot better with the story than I did, but I don't want to take the other one down, at least until I finish this one.
    . .
    Dick thought that giving the eulogy at his best friend's funeral would be the hardest thing he'd ever have to do. And yet, somehow, having to turn away from the hallucination of that very same person turns out to be ten times harder.

    Summary

    After the exile from his Kingdom, 4C isn’t sure where he can call home anymore. The Blue Kingdom sure didn’t want him, especially now that Nom was the monarch, and he was confident that the Moonlit Swamps wouldn’t want him back either without his cloak. He isn’t sure where to go, but he knows he can never return.

    But after waking up on a shoreline with sand in his hair next to a grave with his own name written on it, 4C realizes that he is much too far away from any sort of home: and strangely enough, he wishes nothing more than to go back.

    OR: BF!4C in decayed and decrepit but i character analysis about it

    Summary

    Everyone knew about the tales the children of Berk were raised on: elves and vaettir, wicked and clever beings slinking in the shadows to steal or kill with a sharp tongue.

    Hiccup had never given much thought to these stories, until he meets something while trapped out in a blizzard, and finds a whole new world opened to him.

    Summary

    The story of the Dragon Master went like this:

    He appeared five years ago, riding the only known Nightfury alive as of today. He came in the night in armor made of gleaming black scales raiding dragon hunter ships, his face obscured by a matching mask. No one knows the mans true identity, and if they do, they never lived long enough to tell.

    It was rumored that he would bring the dragons he saved back to his island. It remained hidden, a haven for the beasts he rescued. So hidden, in fact, that many believed it lay at the very end of the world; people called it the Edge.

    Rumor has it that he's building a dragon army, so large that he could burn entire islands within minutes and disappear in the same amount of time.

    No one knows who he is, but Jack does.

    The Dragon Master straddled his hips. He gripped Jack’s wrists above his head with one hand, grabbing his sword and bringing it to Jack’s throat.

    “Give me one reason I shouldn’t use this,” He snarled, and Jack recognized that nasally voice anywhere. It couldn't be true; it was impossible. He'd died during the battle with the Red Death five years ago, and yet...

    “Hiccup?"

    Summary

    "The stranger at the door is not his husband.

    He has a similar face and equally broad shoulders, is about the same height, and even his green plaid shirt resembles the one in the photo Usagi used to make the posters. He's also a red-eared slider, which makes things even harder to see.

    Usagi doesn't know this man, and everything in him screams that he should slam the doors, bolt the windows, and pray that the thing standing in his doors can be killed by human hands."

     

    Or;

    Leo is a con man who needs a new identity and had stolen the worst one possible.

    Summary

    The four intruders were standing near each other at the outskirts of the lab. Apart from some minor scuff marks and scratches marring their features, they seemed in decent shape, ready to attack in a moment’s notice. Yet their forms were sloppy. Amateurish. The weapons held by three of the four were stolen from Draxum’s stash, which Leo knew only because he’d originally stolen them in the first place.

    Little details that paled in comparison to one glaring thing.

    Oh, Leo thought. They survived.

    Summary

    BLUE: Japan has one of the richest relationships with blue of any culture. Unlike many Western traditions, where blue is often associated primarily with sadness or royalty, Japanese culture has historically connected blue with purity, sincerity, protection, everyday life, and harmony with nature. Some of these meanings stretch back over a thousand years.

    blue came to symbolize life before maturity:

    * Fresh beginnings
    * Youth
    * Energy
    * Hope
    * Growth

    Blue wasn’t the color of something finished—it was the color of something becoming.

    Summary

    Extermination Day was never supposed to reach them.
    They were hellborn. Too young to understand why the sky split open above the Pride Ring and angels began tearing through demons. Too young to understand. All they knew was that they had to run, four small turtle demons clinging to each other while hell burned around them.
    Then the portals opened.
    In the chaos, Mikey falls through a portal alone.
    He lands in the Lust Ring, unable to speak the language, terrified. He’s taken in by a sinner mechanic with the body of a crocodile and a surprisingly soft heart.

    Ten years pass.
    Mikey grows up, works illegally as a bartender in a sketchy Lust club, smiles through the rot, hands out his number to strangers, and asks the same question every night: Have you seen three other turtle demons like me?

    ___________

    I’ve wondered what TMNT would look if they all grew up in Hell, so I wrote it myself!
    This AU follows Mikey’s POV after Extermination Day scatters them across the six Sins Rings. He grows up in Lust, raised by Leatherhead, working (illegally) as a bartender at sixteen. He never stops searching for his brothers, refusing to believe they’re gone.

    UPDATE: now with a few drawings!

    Jax is simply a barista to people- nothing more, nothing less. He doesn't make a point to get to know customers. The concept of being known to these people is unnerving to him.

    Summary

    So, it's been four and a half years since Stormz last heard from Dumb, and it's been three years since Stormz's hope for him succumbed to probability assessment, and Stormz is trying very hard not to think about either of those things, because he has a fight in half an hour. He can't afford to be distracted.

    On the almost-anniversary of admitting to himself that his best friend is almost certainly dead, Stormz is scheduled for a match. The fact that his ghosts are haunting him the most they have in months surely means nothing at all.

    Summary

    He was still processing the fact that he was… still here. Somehow.

    He still didn’t really know what had come over him. He just stepped through that door without even thinking…

    No. That wasn’t true, exactly.

    He heard what Pomni said after he threw her out. Every word. And for some reason… He didn’t know why. But in that moment, he just… wanted to try. But he hadn’t actually expected it to work-

     

    Or: A sequel to Today's Adventure: A Fun (And Not At All Traumatic) Walk Down Memory Lane.
     

    OR: Jax escaped the Memory Lane Disaster mostly in one piece, but certainly not unscathed. Now, he must contend with not only the painful aftermath of his near-abstraction and the confusing jumble of emotions that came with it, but also the consequences of EVERYTHING he's done and rediscovering who he even is...

    Maybe abstraction would have been a mercy...

    “Alllrighty my dandy dewdrops! Since the trust exercise a few days ago was clearly ineffective-“

    “You mean the one we didn’t even do?“ Zooble interrupted, exasperated.

    “-I’ve decided a different team building adventure is in order!” Caine continued. “One that’s perfectly designed to help you better understand your fellow circus members!”

    Pomni took a step back, not looking forward to whatever this was going to be.

    Caine snapped his fingers and opened a portal. “By the end, all of your issues will be completely resolved! And we can finally move past all this interpersonal drama and get back to enjoying all of my amazing adventures! Have fun, my terrific little teacups!”

    “W-wait-“ Ragatha stammered as they all tried to resist being pulled forward. “Aren’t you going to explain what we’re doing!?”

    “Ah-ah! No spoiling the show!” Caine said as the force behind the portal became stronger and they all got sucked in.

     

    Or: Jax has been avoiding Pomni since their fight, but when an adventure involving memories goes wrong, will she find a way to get through to him in time, or will his past turn out to be too much for both of them?

    Summary

    “Goodbye, 4C.” The man above him held a weapon long buried, sworn off and hidden for a whole year. Its imposing spikes still had remnants of dried blood, a reminder of the horrible night when he had first found the slime that now sat below him. He clutched his cloak as if it were a lifeline, a way to say that perhaps somehow he still deserved it after everything.

    Or,

    4C gets maced by Nom, and has nowhere else to go…

    Or does he?
