    Summary

    "Are you here to join the sect?" The stranger asked, a strange glint appearing in their eye. Shen Jiu felt like a piece of meat. No, worse: like an animal being evaluated for the worth of its parts.

    "...no," he said. How much could he say? Not the truth, obviously, but anything would be hard to believe coming from the mouth of a kid. Still, the reaction of the disciple would be a good indicator of what might await at the end of that very steep-looking path. "There was an accident, and I had ended up a vast distance away from home. I'm looking for a way to contact my sect."

    "So you legged it for the closest sect and are now regretting not asking how many stairs you'd need to take?"

    "...perhaps."

    Summary

    Shen Yuan, who is nice, who is soft and who is not Shen Jiu.

    He spends so long trying not to be Shen Qingqiu, thinking that not being Shen Qingqiu is an accomplishment, that he never realises the results of this.

    Shen Yuan, who will never be Shen Jiu.

    Shen Yuan, who may be liked, but Shen Jiu, who is loved.

    Summary

    Tim Drake knows that crying yields no data. He learned that at six years old in an empty house, illuminated only by the blue light of a computer screen.

    Now, he’s an exhausted student by day and a digital poltergeist by night. He doesn't just "watch" the Wayne family, he optimizes them. He hacks their coffee machines, stabilizes their tactical HUDs, and leaves anonymous medical alerts on the Bat-computer when Bruce’s cortisol levels spike. It’s not stalking if it’s protective, right?

    But when Jason Todd corners him in the library to argue about The Great Gatsby, Tim realizes that maintaining a firewall is a lot harder when the target is sitting across the table. It turns out, you can’t calculate your way out of a hug, and the Waynes are very, very persistent.

    Summary

    But the real cincher had been an old newspaper article Tim found while researching at the Gotham Public Library (he was supposed to be playing at the park across the street but Tim would rather die than-). It had been about the death of Martha and Thomas Wayne with a blown up photo of eight year old Bruce at their funeral.

    From there all Tim had to do was look in a mirror.

    The same chubby cheeks and button nose. The same slant of their eyes and cupid’s bow. All Tim had to do was part his hair to the side and gel it back to a neat style and they could be twins.

    Or father and son.
    XxX

    Or in which Tim is the result of an affair and is kind of semi okay. The same cannot be said for everyone else.
