Summary
Padawan Veekah Bala was nearing the end of her Jedi training when the war broke out. Just like that, she found herself in command of the 71st Reconnaissance Battalion alongside her Master. The clones trained their entire lives for this war, but the Jedi were never meant to be soldiers. It's a rough road from being a Padawan to eventually becoming the General of the 118th Special Forces Battalion.

Summary
Following the Straw Hat crew’s return from their ventures in Skypiea, Sanji still suffers some residual trauma from tanking Enel’s El Thor blast head-on. As Sanji falters in combat, Zoro steps in and takes some hits for him, the two clashing over their own pride and duties to the crew.
As Sanji patches Zoro up, their bickering eventually gives way to a moment of vulnerability as they navigate their hotheaded and complicated emotions, leading to a newfound understanding of each other... and maybe something more.

Summary
Jason Todd goes to Titan's Tower to send a message. He won’t kill Robin there, no—that wouldn’t be poetic enough. Instead, he’ll torture the cuckoo to death and dump his body in the Nevada desert, never to be found—ensuring he has enough fingers and toes to mail Bruce for the next twenty years.
Only when the time comes, Jason…can’t do it.
Now he’s stranded 3,000 miles from Gotham with nothing but a smart-mouthed Robin, a beat-up pickup truck, and a dream.
You know what they say: take me home, country roads.
Or,
Jason goes to Titans Tower to attack Tim. Instead, the two road-trip across the country from San Francisco back to Gotham. Featuring greasy diner food, shitty motels, talks about trauma in the bed of a pickup truck, and as many metaphors about roads as I can possibly cram in here.
OR OR,
Jason drives forever and ends up exactly where he started.

Summary
“Why doesn’t he have an alarm on this?” the man asked, barely out of breath. “This is like 100K of mods parked out back here in some shitty alley. In Gotham.”
“He’s a big deal with some of the bartenders on King street,” Alexis said. “They’re all buddies. They usually kick out anyone who fucks with him."
“Your boyfriend sounds like a fucking pussy."
Or, the one where the Prince of Gotham stumbles across a woman smashing her ex-boyfriend's car in the alley behind the Iceberg Lounge and decides to join in.
