Summary
When Azula captures Sokka and drags him before Fire Lord Ozai for execution, Zuko makes a split-second decision that changes everything. To save Sokka's life, he claims the Water Tribe warrior as his personal servant—a humiliating role that's the only thing standing between Sokka and the executioner's blade.
What begins as a desperate ploy to protect a prisoner becomes something far more complicated. By day, Sokka must play the obedient servant, wearing his cuffs and keeping his eyes down while Azula circles like a predator waiting for him to slip. By night, behind closed doors, he and Zuko forge an unlikely alliance built on whispered conversations and fragile trust.
But in the Fire Nation palace, safety is an illusion, and Azula is always watching. As the charade stretches from weeks into months, Sokka finds himself relying on Zuko's protection more than he ever expected—and Zuko discovers that keeping Sokka safe has become more important than his own precarious standing with his father.Bookmarked by gothamstodd

Summary
The attack on the Northern Water Tribe goes differently, Aang and the ocean spirit don’t destroy the entire Fire Nation fleet, only most of them.
Zhao escapes, taking Sokka and a few other Water Tribe men as prisoners. Knowing Sokka is traveling with the Avatar he gets sent to Zhao’s “special prison camp” that is hidden near the Earth Kingdom colonies.
Sokka gets a taste of the real war, not the war that he thinks he knows from traveling with the Avatar. While Zhao’s prisoner, he struggles to survive the inhuman conditions. Alone and thought to be dead, he feels himself slowly losing hope.
Seeing a familiar face brings back his hope, even if that face is the scarred Prince of the Fire Nation.
Sokka and Zuko come together to survive and end up depending on each other for a lot more than they ever thought possible.

Summary
Jason Todd was kidnapped at nine-years-old and given two options. Work for his keep, or be forced to to work for his keep.
His life was not pleasant, but Jason was nothing if not a fighter, and dammit if was he going to let the hell around him kill who he was as a person. Or his dreams of growing up and going to college.
Those dreams suddenly came a little more into focus, when his idiot of a pimp accidentally tried to rent him to Bruce Wayne. Poor bastard could have never guessed he was the Batman himself. Heck, not even Jason figured that out, at first. And Batman had practically adopted him.

Summary
Batman has knowledge how to beat them all, villains and also heroes gone bad. When he is hurt in the circumstances which seemed to include a certain alien from the late planet Krypton, Batfamily initiates one of his contingency plans against Superman.
Little do they know that under the facade of an all-mighty demigod hides a humble son of Jonathan and Martha Kent. Or that Bruce and Clark have been secretly in relationship almost three years.
There will be some work ahead before family holidays or blushing grooms are in the cards. And perhaps Bruce should do as Clark and share his civilian identity with their friends in Justice League. Just to avoid further misunderstandings.
Oh well…

Summary
After being captured and beaten (again) within an inch of his life, Jason is forced to swallow his pride and call his sometimes helpful sometimes pain in the neck bat themed allies for help. He thought he'd be patched up and sent on his merry way.... Or kicked out once again. He never expected for the entire family to band together to catch his tormentors and launch operation 'bring Jason home for good' while he's too incapacited to do anything about it.
(Gratuitous and totally self indulgent Jason whump) (Batfamily fluff with a touch of angst) (warning for Jason's self loathing,)

Summary
Dick Grayson threw Jason in Arkham months ago, and promptly failed to check up on him.
Had he bothered, Dick would have found that Jason being five doors down from the Joker was the very least of the second Robin's problems.But after a fight with a powerful telepath goes wrong, Dick finds his mind displaced from his own body and crammed into Jason's.
And neither are happy about it.
Because the Arkham cell was tiny, but Jason's headspace was even smaller; and Dick gets to witness firsthand not only Jason's nightmares, trauma, and treatment, but just how hopeless things are from the inside of his brother's cell.
