    Summary

    The imperial dragons are a close-kept secret. Only a select few know of the mythical blood that flows through the royal family’s lineage, and even fewer know of the power it grants them in times of need.

    When Jinshi finds himself almost assassinated, he is forced to call on such power— but it leaves him delirious, bleeding, and terrifyingly vulnerable. So he flees to the one person he knows he can trust with his life more than anyone.

    Maomao, meanwhile, catches a weird snake outside her house.

    Summary

    "Danny thought he was pretty good at this whole harmless haunting thing. Really, it felt like he was doing good deeds through his pranking. Pull a few pranks on customers, drive up sales for the coffee shop as the rumor mill (correctly) begins claiming the place is haunted. Perfect symbiotic relationship. When Danny can't pass up the opportunity to continuously prank a certain regular, he finds himself being hired as an elite prankster the likes of which Gotham’s vigilantes have never seen.

    Steph is in love with the new coffee shop in town. The aesthetic? To die for. The vibes? Immaculate. The glitter markers? Genius. So, when a certain straw-stealing halfa steals one straw too many, she takes it upon herself to assemble her own first-class squad of Ghostbusters to handle the problem Batman style and bring one (1) prankster into the fold."

    Summary

    Tim's parents faked their deaths and fled the country years ago, but neglected to take him with them. He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
    His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.

    or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

    Summary

    Jason walks into Titans Tower expecting a fight and the satisfaction of beating down the new Robin.

    He walks into a suicide instead.

    (After multiple back-to-back missions, urgent reports that needed to be filled out, and the stress of a new hostile player in Gotham, sleep has not come easily for Tim. Fortunately for him however, his inability to die has given him a unique, but effective, way of dealing with insomnia.

    Unfortunately for everyone else, Jason decides to invade the Titan Tower at the exact same time.)
