Summary
Listen, vehvi,” Mother hissed, her grip on Zelda’s wrist suddenly painful. Zelda didn’t know much Gerudo-- why should she, when the barbarians lived so far and visited so rarely?-- but she recognized the lit of the words. “Do not trust your father. He is a foul man. I have protected you to the best of my ability, but when I am gone, I don’t know what he’ll do--”
The coughing returned, and with it splatters of bloody saliva down Mother’s chin and nightgown-- this time, the coughing didn't stop.OR
Zelda’s life might as well have ended the same day as her mother’s. With the pieces of the Sacred Triforce long since lost, the Hylian Royal Family was all that kept Hyrule’s enemies at bay-- the throne must be filled, and quickly. But when Zelda’s father makes a terrible offer, Zelda is forced to choose: her crown, or her freedom. Fleeing from the only place she’s ever known, Zelda finds herself working in the kitchens of the fearsome Chief of the Gerudo with only Link, a strange scullery boy, for company. But as tensions grow across Hyrule, Zelda finds that perhaps things are not as simple as her father and her history books led her to believe... (based on a collection of different fairytales!)

Summary
The last thing Miles had thought to check after dragging himself to the front doors of the administrative floor of Mount Massive Asylum was his fucking burner phone. In fact, the phone, which had been lost somewhere amongst the glass and broken frames when Miles was not-so-kindly pushed through a second story window, hadn’t even been a blip on his radar. No, he’d been far more focused on the seventeen bullet wounds littered across his body, and the fact that, for some fucking reason, he wasn’t dead.
Or: Miles, meet Waylon.

Summary
Zelda looked at her wrist closely for the first time. There was a ring of bruises around it, from the… the hand.
Even now, she was tempted to chalk the hand up to a panic-induced hallucination—but, no, now that she was out of the tree roots, heartbeat achy in her chest from gloom but still steady and calm, the marks on her wrists were clear. The hand, the same thing that had been pinning the mummy down, had grabbed her, hauled her up, up, up as she and Link fell, away from Link, away from her home, leaving her grasping at air as he fell below her and disappeared into a flash of green and gold. His gory fingers had brushed hers, so close but so far, almost but not enough, and then he was gone, and there had been nothing but the hand.She was alone. Completely and utterly, alone, high in the sky, with no way down.
Or, Link is missing, taken from Zelda after disappearing below Hyrule while face to face with a strange mummy, and Zelda will do anything to get him back. She just has to stop Hyrule from imploding while she does it.
(This is a sequel to Spider Meet Fly/Fly Meet Spider!)

Summary
"Malon was nine going on ten the first time she met the fairy boy, sitting on the edge of the fountain in the center of the central square of Castle Town. He was so short that his feet didn't reach the ground, instead swinging back and forth with childish enthusiasm, and his hay-colored hair stuck up in every direction. He smelled of leaves and moss and was dressed in the strange colors of the forest, with a fairy tangled in his curls. Malon had never seen a fairy up close before, and she certainly hadn't seen one so comfortable with a Hylian. Fairies were good omens, bringers of friendship and light, but they were shy, and Malon had never seen one so content to curl up inside a Hylian’s hat-- but the boy wasn’t Hylian, was he? Green clothes, a fairy in his hair… no, this was a fairy child, one who was far, far from home."
Or, a re-write of a previous fic, ' Fairy Wings', and a look into the friendship between a ranch hand and her fairy boy once all his adventures are through.

Summary
“ He knows, logically, that Tim loves him. Of course he does. Tim looks at him like he hung the stars, when in reality all he did was show up to lunch with Tim’s hoodie on or turn on Tim’s favorite show on Netflix.
It’s just that…
Tim looks at Bernard the same way he looks at Kon.”
———
Or,
Bernard is alone with his thoughts.

Summary
When something alien crash-lands in Gotham, Batman is not concerned.
When Superman calls it a harbinger—a creature that feeds on grief—he is.
It’s alone. A juvenile, separated from its pack. It refuses every attempt at contact.
Red Hood fails. Red Robin lasts longer. Others have already tried.
Robin is sent last.
Inside the containment crater, Damian finds something that responds—not to authority, not to strategy, but to absence.
Harbingers do not hunt. They feed on what remains after loss.
Damian has never lacked for that.
.
.
.“You’re afraid,” he said.
The harbinger’s lips peeled back in a soundless warning. Spines rose higher. The growl that followed was low enough that Damian felt it in his ribs.
He did not flinch.
“Yes,” Damian added, quietly. A reply to an unasked question. “So am I.”

Summary
[From Tumblr]: Good cop bad cop but Jim Gordon (the good cop) is passed out from blood loss and exhaustion and Batman (the obvious bad cop) bundles everyone involved (including his kids) into a corner booth at a 24 hour diner and proceeds to interrogate the suspect over shitty diner coffee and the sounds of his kids force feeding Commissioner Gordon apple pie and french fries.
It's the most intimidating interrogation that has ever taken place in Gotham.
(or, the one where May’s Diner has seen everything Gotham has to offer at night. almost everything, at least)

Summary
“It’s legit. Contract security for an event.”
At the word legit, the entire room cringed back in distaste. Jerry held up his hands, heading off the inevitable protests before they could start.
“I know. I know we said we weren’t doing any legit jobs. But this one is special.”
“Who’s the client?” Jimmy asked, perceptive as ever. Jerry fought to keep himself from smiling, lowering his hands.
“Bruce Wayne.”
