Summary
When Ember turned to look at him, he was shuddering again, clutching at his left arm. It was a strange, jerky shudder too, like- like he was being electrocuted. A whimper slipped out of his mouth.
The penny dropped.
“Oh Ancients, you didn’t say it was your deathday, babypop,” she heard herself say.
“M-my what?” Danny croaked, opening his eyes to glare at her weakly.

Summary
Jason Todd is NOT gay. With a drug-addicted mother and an empty bank account, he has enough problems as it is. He just needs to focus on keeping himself alive until graduation, and then he can forget the boy with the blue eyes and perfect smile. It was a bad idea to begin with, anyway.
AKA nobody is straight and everybody has a problem.

Summary
Bruce is wondering what's going on with his kids. Through observation, he realizes that he'd been rather oblivious. With each time one of the others goes to Tim for something, the young man can solve issues and tell them where they left something as easily as breathing. With each day, they all are growing closer, and it makes him happy. He still has to figure out why they chose to call him "Mom," though.

Summary
The first time someone tells you that they love you, the words are written on your skin. Gold for platonic love, red for romantic. Of course, people don't often say 'I love you' directly, but Tony in particular tends to give really strange marks.
A lot of people had unusual words from Tony Stark, and Bucky wasn't sure why he wasn't one of them.

Summary
“The Robin field has been feeling a little crowded lately,” Tim ventured. “And if I’m going to stay in New York for school, like we talked about, I’d probably keep working with you much more than Batman.”
“And?” Renee pressed and Tim felt a wave of relief wash over him as he recognized the twitch at the corner of her lips as Renee tried to hide a smile behind the mouth of her beer bottle.
“What do you think of the name Query?” he asked.
Renee let out a sudden bark of laughter and lifted her beer to him in a mock toast.
“Sounds gay,” she said. “I love it.”
