    Summary

    "I'm here to kill you, Terminator," Tony said slowly, "does that compute?"

    The soldier looked up at him with wide blue eyes and no expression. "Okay."

    Tony froze. "Okay," he echoed. "I tell you I came here to kill you and your response is 'okay'?"

    "I am being decommissioned," the soldier said, and for one horrible moment Tony thought he actually seemed relieved. "I understand. I will comply."

    (Or; Tony learns the Winter Soldier killed his parents and goes on a search for revenge, but ends up learning how to heal instead)

    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    The Joker is more of an existential threat than either Alfred or Bruce had previously realized, but now that they know, they must deal with it. Dealing with it involves finding the right people to actually deal with it.

    Ie, The Joker isn’t just an immortal, he’s a dark quickening.

    Bruce can make an exception to his no-killing rule, but there’s still a lot of planning involved in doing this right.
