Summary
(Always, Grayson says, I’ll always be here for you. You’ll always be my Robin. But that’s a lie, because he’s not here now. He’s not here in Gotham to play games with, to watch movies with. He’s not here to play with Damian’s hair while Damian pretends to be annoyed, and he’s not here for Damian to hug when he gathers the mind to do it. He’s not here. He’s dead.)

Summary
"Cassandra,” Bruce says, something terrible and heavy in his tone. She cocks her head at him, twisting to face him, blinks the thick slog of unconsciousness from her heavy eyes, and then—
It dawns on her. Or maybe that’s not the correct way to phrase it. It darkens her, a world of solid vantablack curtains shielding her from her greatest asset: her sight.

Summary
The third time Dick doesn’t notice It, but It notices him. Red-litten windows wink at his back, shadows dancing gracefully to a harmony none but It hears. The pale door, dirty and dim, watches him carefully. Watches him meet a man in a gleaming red helmet, watches the snarls and vitriol and hate spread between them like blessings from a priest spread to an undeserving mass. It simmers quietly, indulgently, and It hums. It hums a melody the shadows change to, flickering and formless as they are, and the pale door creaks open a tad more.
Even a mansion of madness and decay such as It cannot call attention away from those enraptured by the past, and they are nothing if not mutually distracted.

Summary
“Are you okay?” the man asks, eyes like a calm ocean he can slip into, lose himself in, without drowning.
Dick’s knees are bloody with their ruins, hands scraped with wood from that ladder he’d climbed down too fast to care. The man doesn’t seem to care about that, despite the three-piece suit and expensive cologne, despite the wealth Dick can practically taste in his presence. He seems…concerned, gentle, caring.
He doesn’t look at the bodies, he sees beyond them. He looks at what the bodies left behind.
***
Tragedy has a tendency of bringing people together. Especially in Gotham.

Summary
“Where did it start?”
Her words are crisp, robbed of the affectionate lilt they’d once held. Red lips release sentiments politely, professionally, an icy veneer of distance they both pretend is more than the falsity it is.
He contemplates, briefly, head tilted with an inherent curiosity in his own answer. He doesn’t know himself where this subject pertains. He’s never known himself less than in the reflection of Will Graham. It once was exhilarating, but now all he can feel is…the metal sting of Mason’s brand, the cold bite of a blade on his wrists, the sting of rain blending with the haze of clouds brimming in his eyes.
“Where did what start, dear Alana?”
***
Alana has questions and Hannibal has answers. If they can drop the mind games, that is.

Summary
Two years after Sherlock's death, John comes to find him on the sofa. Wounded and ill, Sherlock is convinced he's hallucinating and refuses to share any details about Moran or the fact that Mycroft has been compromised. That doesn't stop John from stepping up and taking care of the last of Moriarty's web, BAMF-style.

Summary
Post-fall, Sherlock is off eliminating Moriarty's crime web. He finds he misses John. He can't divulge that he still lives, but he placates his need to communicate with John and still feel a connection with him by sending him blank letters. But over time, this writing exercise lends itself to Sherlock exploring his feelings for his friend. What will happen when Sherlock returns to London and the man he has been "writing" to regularly for the past two years? NOT S3 compliant. Mary who? Previously posted on ff by me.

Summary
For cccahill18, based on their prompt for johnlockchallenges Valentine's Day Exchange: Mycroft asks for John’s help in rescuing Sherlock from his Serbian captors. Requested genres: AU, fluff, angst, hurt/comfort
Sherlock couldn’t decide if it was the kindest or the cruelest trick his mind had ever played on him, to give him a blurry vision of John Watson standing there with haggard lines on his face, the beginnings of an absolutely disastrously scruffy beard, and a grubby knit cap shoved down over his ears. His mouth shaped around that name, the one he hadn’t allowed himself to utter aloud in two years, and it felt foreign as it scraped weakly past his lips.
“John?”
