Summary
Harry Potter escaped the Dementors at the end of his third year. He saved his godfather. He saved a goddamned hippogriff. But for the first time, he couldn't save everyone.
Someone died who wasn't supposed to die, and it's all the Author's fault. The Author messed up, you see. Their Story is projected on a world, and it can only change so much about how that world works.
Cracks have appeared in the Narrator's control for the first time. It still controls Harry's every move, but the settings, the context, its hold there is weakening, and more and more people are going off script as changes accumulate. Harry and Riddle have been given an inch. How far they can make it stretch remains to be seen. More importantly, they've been given hope. It came at a high price, but they know now that the Author can mess up.
And seeing as the Author doesn't really seem to know anything about the world they're influencing, it's probably only a matter of time until they mess up again.

A little over two years ago, Riley Grace Davis, also known as the infamous serial killer Bonesaw, faked her death to escape the Slaughterhouse Nine. Since then, she's been doing her best to keep anyone from finding out about her origins. Grappling with her past and murderous urges is hard enough without heroes or the Nine hunting her down. But after her friend Taylor triggers with a power clearly influenced by Riley's own, she finds herself getting drawn back into the games of heroes and villains. Can she keep Taylor safe, even as the powderkeg of Brockton Bay is set alight? Will her secrets stay buried? And most importantly, is Bonesaw truly dead and gone—or has the country's most feared cape just been waiting for the chance to return?

While Red Hood leaves a bloody trail in his wake, the spirit of Jason Todd wanders Park Row in search of his personal Charon’s obol to pay the ferryman for peace.
This begs the question: what do we owe the dead?
Or, the one where Dick Grayson is haunted by ghosts, Tim Drake is desperately trying to save Bruce, and Jason takes over Willis Todd’s mechanic shop following his resurrection. Somehow, their paths still converge.
