Summary
“Wait, your name is Link?” The newly proclaimed Hero of Legend demands. Link, Hero of the Four Sword, frowns at him.
“Yes?” It isn’t that confusing of a declaration, is it? They did just go over this—they’re all named Link.
“You were a hero? Of the Four Sword?”
Four’s eyes narrow.
“I am a hero, yes. The Hero of the Four Sword. Is there something wrong with that?”
Legend blinks. “What? No, I just—” He stops abruptly. Shakes his head. “Sorry, never mind.”
Or: a chronicling of all the times Legend is weird around Four, and how the Chain finds out why.

Summary
Did Jason plan to get sucked into the past? No.
Is he going to make the most of it? Yes.
Will Bruce be mad at him for it when he gets back? That's half the reason he's doing it in the first place.
Butterfly effect be darned he's going to fix things, even if it means he can't fix anything for himself.

Summary
“What do you have here?” Hood asks, having pushed through the crowd to stand in front of Tim, studying him from where he towers over him. Hood sounds amused, and that immediately dashes any hopes Tim has of this being an undercover mission to infiltrate or whatever and not him dealing with traffickers and happening upon Tim in the most disadvantaged situation possible.
Asshole number one grins. Even though Hood’s helmet turns away to look at him, Tim can’t rip his eyes away. Can’t even blink. “Red Hood! Didn’ know you were gonna show up. That right there is a surprise. As soon as the Big Guy gets here, we’re gonna tell everybody about it.”
“A surprise, huh?” Hood drawls. The way the helmet puts an edge on his voice is just as horrifying as it was a few months ago. That voice echoes in the nightmares that keeps Tim awake and shaking at night. “What’s the deal?” He shifts closer.
“Woah, don’ touch the merchandise yet, there, buddy.” Number one protests.
Tim feels cold wash over him at the word. Merchandise. That heavily implies he’s being sold.
Hood catches onto the word as well. “Merchandise?” He questions, an interested lilt decorating the last syllable.

Summary
Jason Todd has been dead for almost three years now. Everybody knows this. Tim definitely knows this.
And yet here he is now, looking very much alive, three years older and approximately 200 pounds heavier, in the middle of lecturing a bunch of sophomores about poetry and having just introduced himself as their new English teacher.
Bullshit, Tim thinks.

Bookmarker's Notes
'Jason is not usually the best at planning, but this time, he has it all figured out. He’s got a whole Word doc about it. He was going to do a presentation, too, but then he lost interest halfway through, so the Word doc will have to be enough.'

Summary
Normally, a trip to Gotham wouldn’t be so bad (excluding the whole 'crime capital' part, of course). Unfortunately, Marinette has a father who doesn't know she exists in the form of an enigmatic billionaire and particularly nosy brothers who seemed to be incapable of letting her be.
Marinette had always known that Tom Dupain wasn’t her biological father. She’d never been told just who her real father was, but that had never really mattered to her. Tom had always been there for her, loving her as if he were his own. Marinette would later learn that Tom physically couldn’t have children, so perhaps that was why he’d been so willing to parent Sabine’s toddler when given the option.
“Maman…” Her mouth was dry as she swallowed. “What’s… what’s his name?”
“Oh,” Sabine smiled. “Bruce Wayne. We met… what was it? Sixteen years ago? Bit of a whirlwind romance, to be honest. This was a few years after he adopted his first son, mind you. But it was─… Marinette?"
Bruce Wayne... is her father.
