Summary
In the moments that it took the new emperor to slide his sword out from the corpse of his brother, Tanju came to the only possible decision. He threw himself onto the ground and prostrated himself—knees, elbows, forehead all desperately kissing the cool marble—even as he cried into it, "Long live the emperor!"
Ardashir's boots came into view first, then the tip of his sword, held loosely at his side, dripping a trail of blood behind him. When he stopped walking, the drips began to gather into a pool. "You wish me to live long?"
~
In the aftermath of a bloody coup, the emperor's consort finds himself desperate to stay alive. His body and his magic are all he has to offer, for the one who possesses these will also possess the throne.

Summary
Hawks panics. "Okay, alright, jeez, you caught me, I..." Hawks hesitates, gulps; tumbles forward, "Have no idea who you are." The eyebrow is still raised. "...Sorry?"
Crispy Cream doesn't say anything for a long moment. The mental pressure it creates makes Hawks want to babble, but he manages to hold his tongue this time.
"I can't tell if you're screwing with me or what," Crispy Cream drawls.
"It's the 'or what'," Hawks offers.
Hawks gets hit with an amnesia quirk. Dabi gets begrudgingly involved.

Summary
Twelve-year-old Tim Drake has homework to finish and dinner waiting at home. He even has an invitation to spend time with Bruce before patrol the next day reviewing toxins and antidotes. It doesn't matter that Bruce prefers to keep things all-business and down in the Batcave. Having Robin again is helping, Tim can already see that, and it's always a relief to know when he's invited back.
Sixteen-year-old Tim Drake decides that he'd rather keep his distance from the tempting research project Bruce has across two work tables. It's archaeology and time travel all at once, even more interesting than usual after Bruce's long trip through time, but Bruce probably won't crack that in one night. Getting involved in the project will eliminate Tim's chance to escape to his apartment for a quiet evening rather instead of struggling through an awkward dinner with Jason and Damian and Bruce.
When the Tims suddenly switch times and places, twelve-year-old Tim has an invitation to dinner and sixteen-year-old Tim knows just what kind of ripples someone can leave from the past.
