Summary
Where Jason never had that fateful night with the Joker and stayed on as Robin, so Tim Drake never succeeded him. Jason and Bruce had a "be your own man" falling out, but now he's back on the team as Red, and he's handed over the mantle to Damian.
Tim’s going to med school. Doesn’t stop his asshole supervisor from scheduling him on the dreaded seven-to-three night shift. At least he’s on a quiet ward tonight. It’s probably one of the quietest nights Tim’s had since he took up this nursing gig. He’s even got enough energy left in him for a brief late-night-early-morning shower when he stumbles back into his apartment around four a.m. He shucks his scrubs on the way over to the ensuite, yawning in the yellowed light. Tim’s down to his boxer briefs by the time his bare feet touch cold tile, and then he’s really, truly awake, because there’s someone in his bathroom.
The man’s dressed in something that looks suspiciously like a motorcycle jacket, only sleeker and with a slice of accented ruby up the sides. Tim’s lived in Gotham for six years, so he knows exactly what that is.
There’s a vigilante passed out on his bathroom floor.Series

Summary
Bishop Takes Knight—Historical Suit of Armor Disappears Without A Trace!
Nolan can’t help but trace his fingers over the grainy image beneath the headline, the familiar business card, and the even more familiar shape stamped on it. The Bishop. Our bishop, he thinks, and shudders a little bit, feeling strangely indecent sitting out here in public touching his fingers to the image of his soulmark, their soulmark, a shape that must have been copied faithfully from the naked skin of his other half.
There in the paper, for anyone to look at—but not for anyone else to understand. A secret message just for him. Intimate and brazen; connecting them across countries, timezones, crime scenes.
--
Or, Nolan thinks he's been flirting with his soulmate-slash-professional rival for the last few years until he realizes he actually has two soulmates. And they've already found each other.

Four times having a governor module fucking sucked, plus one time [REDACTED: FILE MISSING].

Summary
Hob Gadling was not by nature a cautious man but even he knew the value of keeping track of those who would be too… intrigued by his condition. In 1926, a chance conversation in a bar alerts Hob to the fact that Roderick Burgess has captured another immortal, one that sounds eerily similar to his friend.

Summary
This is not Tyler’s apartment. He has no idea how he got here or who he’s sleeping beside, face hidden in the pillow. He’s been sitting up long enough to wake him, though.
“Tyler,” he says, voice muffled and rough with sleep. “You awake?” He looks up with half-lidded eyes, dark hair a mess.
