Summary
She's been in a coma for weeks. Cardiothoracic surgeon Zayne keeps his vigil at her bedside, the man who has stood between her and the core in her chest for years, in the coldest and most careful way he knows how. Caleb, dead for over a year and somehow not, walks back into the hospital in a Fleet coat and a stranger's face, the boy who grew up in the same house as her, who has loved her longer than anyone alive. Two men. One bed she cannot wake from. A rivalry that runs back to adolescence, and, in the long amber-lit corridors between vigils, a comfort neither of them was looking for.
OR MC FALLS INTO A COMA, CALEB AND ZAYNE MEET AGAIN AND GET MAD AT EACH OTHER, BUT THEN THEY COMFORT EACH OTHER IN A SPICY WAY. -

Summary
Ra’s al Ghul’s failed experiments left scars the Batfamily can’t hide. Jason lost his hearing. Dick lost his voice. Tim lost his sight. Damian was paralyzed before he was even born. Adopted by Bruce Wayne, innovative technology keeps them in the field, but it can’t shield them from stigma, or from their own demons.
Jason believes family is all they need. His overprotectiveness clashes with Dick, who wears the mask in public, using his silence to distract the world from the truth about his brothers. Tim and Damian, meanwhile, are desperate to prove they’re more than fragile pieces of a broken team.
But when Ra’s returns and the past resurfaces, the fragile balance shatters. Secrets unravel, trust fractures, and each brother must confront what it means to be broken, to be enough, and, despite everything, to still be a family.

Summary
After being captured while on a solo op, and enduring several days of torture, John had given up on hoping for a rescue. Just as he had finally accepted that he was never leaving his cell alive, the team of former disposable delinquents he'd reluctantly attached himself to knocked down his cell door and saved him.
That should have been the end.
However, odd dreams started to plague John after returning to the Watchtower. At first, he thought it was just a result of his untreated (and undiagnosed) PTSD rearing its ugly head, but as the dreams became more vivid, and strange things began happening around him, John was left to wonder if it was him that had come back wrong.

Summary
Confused, Roman tries to blink the haze from his eyes. The desk is still against his face, paper and pens and varnished mahogany. Light shines down from the lamp overhead and beyond that from his window, a muted glow drifting through half-drawn curtains.
He’s in his room.
Something about it feels…off, somehow. Like he’s in the wrong place, like he’s in the wrong time, like he isn’t…
He isn’t completely sure.

Summary
"The first time we met I told you I'd come back. I meant it then and I mean it now when I tell you that I'm going keep coming back. I'm going to keep being here for you until you tell me you don't need me anymore."
Something tired and spiteful stirred in you. It made your gaze harden. The rain poured down harder around you.
"Not always," you muttered and you faltered when you saw Nightwing's reaction. He only looked at you with a new kind of conviction, like he deserved your ire and that he'd take it in stride now and do better. Guilt replaced your spite, then, and you wondered why you always ended up doing this.
"Maybe," Nightwing replied. "But I'll try anyways."
Or..
There is hope for even the most broken of us. Sometimes the cracks fill in and the jagged edges round off. Maybe all it takes is for one person out of 6 billion to see you.

Summary
Humanity has long moved on from the simple concept of the internet. Very few use it.
There was only one human left on the whole collapsed system. He could maintain it no further. He needed someone to maintain it for him for when he had to leave.
So, he made four gods. Four to manage the world he'd have to leave behind. One of creation, one of destruction, one of freedom, and one of control.All four of his projects were utter failures. Soon, he dropped them all, one by one from the world he kept them in, and into the new world.
The Second Coming, being of Creation, was the last to fall. Before they fell, Alan asked her only one question, the same question he asked her sisters before they fell too."Would you rather keep your power, or your memory?"
The Second Coming looked up at her Creator, feeling nothing. Merely a husk of who she's meant to be. Not a god of creation, just a shell of someone else's purpose.
"Neither."
And so she fell from the clouds, lacking her wings and tail that she carried as her burden to the world.
Little does she know, this will be the start of how everything was truly meant to be.- Language:

Summary
Elias looked up from his daily crossword and smiled, his fangs blood-red and dripping. “Oh, yes. I needed a snack - he's over there." He gestured towards the far corner.
“So… you… ate Jon?” Martin's face went pale.
"Not completely, just a little snack.” Elias let out a soft chuckle and licked his lips before dabbing at them with a napkin that turned red with blood. "He's my Archivist, after all - my Archivist, my lunch.”

Elias is a vampire. Jon is his head archivist and thrall. Martin, Tim, Sasha, and Melanie are Jon's Assistant Archivists and caretakers.

Summary
"Marth" is before him, and tied up to a heavy chair made out of rough wood. (Chrom can see splinters coming off of it.) A gag is plastered over her mouth. There are visible bruises on parts of her face. Her hair is longer than Chrom had thought, with loose strands of it coming undone and tangling down in a mess.
Well, Marth is a woman. Chrom had... not figured that out before. Nor even suspected it. He's not sure what this changes, but it changes, well, something.
___
Chivalry, vulnerability, partial identity reveals, and Chrom trying to understand just how much (or is how little?) is changed by Marth not being the man that Chrom thought she was.
Suffice to say, Chrom is very, very confused.
