    Summary

    There is a tap on the table top and a quiet, “Scusatemi, signorina,” and she looks up. There is a boy there, no more than twenty, and he is undoubtedly American, though his Italian is so polished that even she would be unsure if not for his hesitant slouch— discomfort, it says I am out of place. His gaze is not demanding. It is not cold, either— but intelligent, distant. Not assessing, but calculating. As if she is made of code, and he is reading her.

    “I speak English,” she tells him, “better than Italian.”

    He slumps with something akin to relief. “Oh- that’s. That’s cool. I’m really sorry to ask-“ and he looks it, wincing and pulling his own fingers, “-but would it be okay if I sit with you? My mamma is in a formaggeria across the piazza and I desperately don’t want to stand in there and smell cheese for an hour so I was gonna grab an espresso but every other table is filled and I don’t want to impose but—?” He looks at her. He is sharp, ardent with a wisdom that puts her teeth on edge. No young man should look like that: as if he has stared straight into the barrel of a gun and laughed at the bullet, swallowed it whole.

    He looks old for his age. He just. He looks.

    Summary

    Joker Junior, the young plucky sidekick to the heroic vigilante known as The Joker, is 'rescued' from the former 'home' he's imprisoned in and is unceremoniously dragged to a different dimension by a man wearing his murderer's face!

    But with Damian locked in a cell, his Papa out of reach, and Batgirl left behind?

    He can't say this feels like much of a rescue...

    Summary

    Tim had never infiltrated a criminal organization before.

    At least not… physically, you know.

    Infiltrating systems had been part of Tim’s life full-time in recent years, but he wasn’t stupid enough to think this wouldn’t be different from that. Hacking into networks, bypassing firewalls, stealing data… those were all things he could do from the safety of his room, his fingers flying across a keyboard while sipping on lukewarm coffee.

    But this?

    This was asking for a slow death before he ever made it to sixteen.

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Tim is one of the most wanted hackers in the world who is forced to work for the FBI when they catch his parents negotiating in the black market. His mission? Infiltrate the Waynes, just the most powerful crime syndicate in the world, led by billionaire Bruce Wayne. Probably the stupidest thing Tim had ever done, but he could do it. He had no other choice.

    Things might get more complicated when both sides get attached, and Tim finds himself starting to love this sick, distorted family and realizing they could love him back.

    Summary

    Appetence: defined as an attraction, a natural affinity, or an instinctive desire. In other words, it's a cosmic sort of bond that clouds the mind until all thought is consumed by that singular point of infatuation.

    When Voldemort divines what Harrie Potter truly means to him in the graveyard, a festering obsession begins. His horcrux. A part of his wayward soul, crafted from his marrow, magic, and might— his very own damning appetence.

    He knows what has been kept from him, what rightfully belongs at his side, and now?

    Well.

    Now, he wants her back.
