Summary
Winter's back is a straight line ahead of him, somehow signalling calm competence, even while Charlie is doing everything he can to not jump out of his skin. The path seems to be getting narrower with every breath, branches and bushes brushing against him and catching on his clothes and in his hair, leaving scratches on bare skin that can't be felt right away, thin lines aching in the cold humidity of the fog.

Summary
Mama promises they'll be here for longer. He wants to believe her. They're not living on base, Dad's been deployed, and Mama has people here. Maybe Gotham can be his home. Or maybe Dad will come back, or go somewhere safer, and they'll have to pack up and do it all over again.

Summary
The first time it happens, it's funny. The situation in itself is funny, and it's happened to all of them at this point. If you're a Wayne, you get kidnapped, and you can't be too good at escaping in order to preserve your cover. It's annoying, but it happens.
It would be funny no matter who the kidnappee was (objectively, even if it was Jason himself).
Tim, though.

Summary
When Bucky Barnes returns to New York after being deprogrammed in Wakanda, The Avengers are shocked to discover that he and Clint have already met. Clint’s not delighted to have this previously-unknown part of his history dragged up after all these years, but he also doesn’t want to keep secrets from his teammates, so he agrees to tell them the story of how he met the Winter Soldier.
After a job goes south, 21-year-old Clint finds himself stranded. In order to get out of town, he takes a job as a tribute act while trying to lay low. Unfortunately, this brings with it a whole new set of problems, including learning dance routines, uncovering whatever super-sketchy business his new bosses are into, working out how much body glitter is too much body glitter, and figuring out why he keeps getting butterflies in his stomach whenever the super-hot bodyguard-slash-dance instructor looks at him.
Behold as The Amazing Hawkeye ignores good advice and makes terrible choices! Gasp as our favorite archer juggles spying with rehearsals! Marvel in wonder as he explores his burgeoning sexuality!

Summary
Somewhere in the garage, Jason squeaks to a stop again, but this time, there’s no shouted exclamations, and the footsteps don’t start again. Dick furrows his brow. It sounds like he stopped near the Japanese cars, and Dick can’t even remember what’s over there. He picks up his pace from where he had been meandering through the garage and beelines to where he thinks Jason is, the sudden silence unnerving him. God, what if something’s wrong, what if—
Jason is standing, arms frozen at his sides, breath shallow, jaw clenched tight, eyes the size of dinner plates. When Dick sees what he’s staring at, he can’t help the smirk. Jason turns his whole head to look at Dick and says, in a near whisper: “is that a Supra?”
“Yeah,” says Dick, “that’s the Supra.”
OR
Bruce requests that Dick try to bond with Jason before the adoption and leaves zero instructions on how to do that. Dick improvises.
OR
there’s no way they’re not all car guys, I can feel it in my bones

Summary
Ilya Grigorievich Rozanov isn't much of a reader. But his first spring in Ottawa, watching playoffs happen to other people, he finds he has time on his hands.
It's probably his luck, that the first book he picks up might be about him.

There Are Some Things Cliff Marleau Cannot Unlearn (No Matter How Hard He Tries) by EiraMorhen

Summary
Cliff knew that this probably violated the promise he made to Roz when he had given him a spare key. It was for emergencies only. He hoped he kept his key privileges after tonight.
Because throwing a surprise pizza/movie night in Roz’s own home for when he returned to Boston from his father’s funeral in Russia? That probably didn’t count as an emergency.
But fuck it. Roz was his best friend, and while his father may have sucked, it’s still awful losing a parent. Roz should have his friends here, waiting to support him when he gets back.
The only thing that could make this better was if Cliff knew who Jane was, so she could be here for him too.
