Summary
"Merlin!" Arthur said, diplomat voice gone. Small mercies. Instead of yelling, though, so Merlin could at least yell back, he just calmed himself down and tried again. "Are you missing Gaius?"
The question made Merlin's heart pound, harder. It made an ugly laugh sit in his throat and even uglier truths try and claw their way up around it. "Something like that." He manages to say, instead of crying or laughing like a lunatic. Merlin had a right to know his father. Morgana had a right to know herself. Arthur-
"Well, what is it then?" Arthur pressed, again, and a pillow hits his face hard, because his prince was a prat.

Summary
"Hey, Dekorin." Ino flicked her, dragging her attention to the food that had been served. She hoped they had thanked the chef for her- she didn't want to be impolite. "Hey, chin up. We did it, right?"
Sakura took a deep breath and nodded, coming to a decision.
"Yeah." She grinned, giddiness returning and mixing with refocused determination. "We sure did. All of us."
She could fix this. She She had to.

Summary
This Sunday, Rosie awoke to a knock on her door. She threw a quick coverup over her night clothes and felt her teeth sharpen as she approached the door. It was a rude start to her day, but at least she'd have someone for breakfast after dealing with the disturbance.
She opened the door, and plans for black pudding with her tea fizzled out, replaced by a spike of fear her surprise couldn't quite trump.
"Hello!" The tall man smiled, eyes glowing red. Rosie looked him in the eye because it was the polite thing to do, even though her nose tried to pull her gaze to the smell of a fresh kill. "Alastor! Pleasure to be meeting you Miss Rosie, quite a pleasure, I've heard only good things!" The Radio Demon introduced, taking her hand in his own blood covered one and giving it a firm shake.
"Just Rosie is fine, dear." She replied, trying to determine whether this was going to be her final conversation. She hadn't thought herself powerful enough to draw the attention of the no-longer-aspiring overlord, and in the months since his rise he's yet to seem to care for anything besides power, so she really didn't know what could bring him here.

Summary
It was the end of their world, of life as they knew it, but it wasn't the end of the universe. It wasn't the end of everything- until it was, and they accidentally ended time as they knew it.
Turns out, sometimes messing with the fabric of space-time is bad, actually.

His dad thinks, with a surprisingly genuine sympathy and sadness, that Arthur was tied closer to his duty then most any other king, as he'd never be caught up in the frivolities of love; after all, his soulmate would die only thirteen years after his birth.
Arthur almost- almost- wishes that were true.

Tim Drake and Stephanie Brown have time traveled a decade and a half or so back in time from some Real Bad Shit, and almost immediately decided that they can do whatever they want. What's it gonna do, change the future? Uh, yeah, I sure hope it-
Anyway. This mostly means that they've become Guardian Angels of an appropriately unhinged variety befitting their Gotham Dystopia roots, and not a single person under their care knows what the hell is going on.- Words:

Summary
Ace woke up in an unfamiliar room, wearing strange clothes, with a gun pointed between his eyes. While this wasn't particularly unusual for him, there's no way he could have predicted everything that came after.

Summary
This time, David smiled at him. It suddenly occurred to him that they weren’t talking about the strike or the Union or anything at all. He didn’t really mind the silence, but if it continued to grow Jack might pick up on just how David enjoyed it–how long David could sit in silence and stare into his eyes (and God, Jack’s eyes were so pretty). He rattled his brain and opened his mouth, grasping for a conversation starter.
“Your eyes are beautiful.”
David froze. He hadn’t meant to say that. If the end of the world was going to happen now, David was sure he'd be okay with it.

Summary
More often than not, Race was covered in bruises.
Most of the time, it was his own bruises. Until he was about nine years old, it was his own parents who inflicted them upon him; after that, it was from him getting into fights.
But he woke up with a lot of bruises that weren't his too. They were his soulmate's. He knew that his bruises appeared on someone else’s skin, and that person was supposedly his soulmate.
(When he turned fourteen and realized he didn’t like girls like he was supposed to, that he had been corrupted by Satan like his father had always said, he broke down crying in his bunk.
That was the day he decided that he never wanted to meet his soulmate, knowing he would never be able to love whatever girl’s bruises matched his own, not in the way that she would want.)
***
Race is happy to never meet his soulmate, but when he does, it's a mess.
