Summary
Fred Jones Sr. is still awake when Fred rasps at his door.
He doesn’t really know why he’s still awake, just that he knew he had to be. Maybe it was the quiet contemplation in Fred’s features when he came by Darrow to pick up his boy, or the way that dust clung to his clothes. Either way, The Freak had hissed in displeasure, and something sour settled in his stomach.
Or, a what-if set after the events of Escape from Mystery Manor

Summary
Dick stood up, looking into the mirror one last time. His eyes gazed away from his own features and met Jason’s, standing in the kitchen doorway, frozen.
Jason stared into the mirror into Dick’s eyes. And to his surprise, Dick just smiled. He bowed his head slightly, leaving the bathroom, and walking into the bedroom, not sparing a second glance. As if Jason were never there.
He knew that he saw him.
Why didn’t he react?

“Please don’t cry.”

What?

Summary
Kobeni couldn't hack it in Public Service. That first day was too terrible and she turned in her badge then and there. But nothing pays like a government gig, and when the scary trainer man with the scarred mouth came knocking, she didn't have the budget to turn him away.
Still, helping one kid adjust to the big city and looking out for him, for just as much as devil hunting? If there was something she could do, it was look after a kid for a bit. She could help a teenager adjust to a new life. Maybe. Hopefully. If she didn't fuck it up.
She knew it was too good to be true.

Summary
Five times Giyuu really should’ve picked up on the Uzui spouses’ intentions towards him, plus the one time he finally does. I know how this sounds, but don’t judge him. All it took was, you know, two pregnancies and extended cohabitation.

Summary
The Cleaner boy should have died.
Instead, he got saved by a whim. There was nothing good to get out of this: the boy woke up sightless, nameless, and powerless. The only strength left in him was the unyielding grip he had onto that debilitated stick.
He should have died, yet they fed him lies. Words that nourished what they never thought would become the first step to chaos. The promise of a downfall, though they were not certain for who.
