    Summary

    Spider-Man has three fundamental rules. Always get back up, never kill, and keep his identity a secret to protect the people he loves. Through blood, sweat, and tears, he's upheld these rules for years now, despite the suffering it forces him to endure.

    Despite this, though, he's still a person. One who isn't invulnerable, one who can't always save everyone, and one who can't always hide who he is. He's not perfect, no matter how hard he tries to be.

    So, when he accidentally kills Green Goblin, he's heartbroken. He doesn't know what to do with yet another life lost to his imperfection.

    Luckily, a certain Merc with the Mouth — that he's come to know as the closest friend he's ever had, despite said friend knowing nothing about him other than his hero persona — is there to help him.

    At least, until he's hired to kill Peter Parker: Spidey's cute photographer. Then, all bets are off.

    OR:

    He launched himself at Wade, wrapping both his arms and legs around his torso and subconsciously spider-sticking. He’d lost enough tonight. He didn’t want to lose Wade, too.

    Summary

    Gloved fingers close over Tim’s throat and slowly begin to squeeze.

    “Jason!” he gasps, choking. “Have you ever read Macbeth?

    The Red Hood stares at him like Tim just slapped him with a fish.

    --
    With his grades slipping, Tim worries Bruce will take Robin away. So when the Red Hood breaks into his room with the intent to kill him, Tim decides it's a good idea to ask him for help on his English homework.

    It works. And then it doesn't. And then Tim solves a mystery and almost dies anyway.

    Summary

    The holidays are Tim's most favorite time of year.

    He doesn't mean that like most people mean it, where they say "holidays," but they really only celebrate the one, and all the others are just happening at the same time. Tim celebrates ALL the holidays.

    He's usually very good at keeping the various family tradition stories straight, too. He's been Jewish; he's been Christian; he's been pagan; he's been Muslim. Sometimes all at the same time. But this year...well, this year the Waynes are suddenly getting involved, and Tim starts to realize how hard it is to keep stories straight and less-than-stellar upbringings hidden when people are actually listening to you.

    It's weird, Tim decides. And he's not sure he likes it.

    (A year in the life of Tim Drake, as told through the various holiday parties of the Gotham elite and the unexpected lessons on privilege, bias, and various -isms that come with 'em. And maybe a little bit of friendship and understanding along the way, since we all know this has to end with Tim joining the Batfam early, right?)

    Summary

    Tim is prepared to take the steps necessary to ensure that Bruce will not feel obligated to adopt Tim when a comatose Jack Drake inevitably dies. But what could be better than preventing Bruce from ending up with a son he doesn't want? Bringing back the one he does.

    Jason agrees to the Replacement's stupid, stupid plan to invite some strange adult man he's never met to come live with him, if only to keep the idiot alive long enough for him to serve his purpose in the Great Red Hood Revenge Scheme.

    Might this new roommate situation have an impact on either of their worldviews? Surely not...

    Summary

    Deadpool wasn’t even there but he could practically hear him singing, “It’s my party I can cry if I want to, cry if I want to cry cry cry”. It was enough to almost break him out of the spiral. Almost.

    Or.
    5 time Peter didn't take Wade's flirting seriously and the 1 time he had to.
