    Summary

    The Court of Owls want the Gray Son under their thumb by any means necessary. Dick Grayson has made it clear, on multiple occasions, that the Court have no hold on him and that he will never assist them in their quest for control. Enter CADMUS: if the real Dick Grayson won't fall into line, the Court will simply make their own.

    Too bad the Court didn't factor Dick Grayson's family, friends and allies into their plans.

    Summary

    Having a successor obviously meant spending time with them and training them. That was a given, so of course Wukong would get close to the kid! But there was absolutely no way that he was like a dad to Mk. Everything he did was strictly mentor-like, no parental action in sight. Right?

    Summary

    What he saw had him pausing, his stomach rolling from where Phil’s hand shot up to cover his mouth. Wilbur was stock still, eyes wide and watery. Techno wanted to assume it was from the blazing heat they felt even from here…but he knew better.

    What remained of the village he’d visited only once in passing were smoldering remains of crackling foundations and house-frames held together by stubbornness alone. All were blackened beyond repair, stonework cracked and smeared with black ash from what had to have been an explosion. No wildfire did this- as the papers had so clearly described, but nor did they account for the village in question being reduced to rubble. Smoke rose from the ashes and encircled the heavens like a halo, raining ashen tears upon the land, desperate for its story to be told. However, it was Wilbur who was the storyteller here- and for once in his life, he seemed to have fallen silent. It was more unnerving than the village, in Techno’s opinion, though his thoughts were seldom ever asked for to begin with.

    “What…”

    “The…”

    “Fuck,” Wilbur finished helpfully.

    Summary

    Mk had wondered how much Monkey King's golden fillet must have hurt, but he'd never wanted to know.

    He doesn't have much of a choice now.

    (This fic was started when we only had as far as Season 1, Episode 9, with things from JTTW used to flesh in some things we did not have yet. As the story progresses, I will and do account for new lore/etc within reason (i.e I will not retcon current chapters or established lore of this fic).)
