    Summary

    There are two locations in Crime Alley that everyone knows are neutral territory: JT's Garage, and Flag's Bar situated two blocks over.

    The Alley's run by a Ghost story who goes by that very name and lives up to every rumor told about him; whether this be the blood running down the streets of the Narrows during the gang war waged for the Alley or Ghost's merciless hits against those who defy his order. Even the kind smiles and open rooms without strings attached offered to the citizens of the Alley are true.

    Its been this way for three years now. Ghost has taken over Mask's territory, ran Penguin out, and shut down Two Face's operations. He has worked long and hard enough to secure a foothold and establish a system under his Code.

    And it works. It does.

    Three years is also enough time that Spoiler and Signal, the two newest Bats, begin to get a little too curious about finding out who the elusive Ghost really is.

    (Jason hadn't wanted to get involved with the Bats this time around. He wanted to clean up the Alley, work on cars with Santana, and maybe smoke some weed and drink some beer on the weekends when he wasn't out doing crime-lord shit. Fuck.)

    Summary

    After the death of Jason Todd, Dick made the decision to return to Gotham to ensure no future Robin ever suffered the same fate as his Little Wing, personally overseeing the training of every Robin to come. Ten years later, Batman leaves Gotham without warning to investigate an unknown that has Bruce staring at Jason’s long-abandoned bedroom door. He puts Nightwing in charge of the others and tasks Dick with keeping an eye on a new "vigilante" who can't seem to decide whose side he's on— a mysterious Red Hood, who also doesn’t have any qualms against working alongside Gotham’s most wanted.

    Summary

    It's been 5 years since Jason died.
    It's been 4 years since he came back with a chip on his shoulder and a taste for bloodshed.
    It's been 2 years since he started trying to detox from the Lazarus Pit and rejoin the Family.
    It's only been a year since his last major blow-up with the Family, 9 months since the last time he injured a fellow Bat severely enough to land them on the sidelines for over a week.

    So this working together with Red Robin thing is still new, still fragile, and Jason is not the only one struggling to cope with it. And when a routine disruption of a smuggling operation takes an odd turn, Tim and Jason find themselves with a whole new perspective to sift through.

    Summary

    Steve Rogers has lived for entirely too long—long enough to see the world's end. The heroes are gone, and the Earth is pushing what's left of mankind towards the exit.

    But when a makeshift team rises from the ashes, when a mysterious presence all but drags Steve there, he begins to think there may be hope yet. As they shoot for the stars one last time, Steve will get proof yet again that the future is nothing if not an echo of the past.

    Summary

    “If there’s a girl I’m meant to be mourning, I want to know,” Bucky persists, as though Steve hasn’t had a close brush with asphyxiation right before his eyes. His foot twitches against Steve’s under the table.

    “There wasn’t a girl,” Steve coughs. “Why…?”

    Bucky’s gaze is sharp and discerning as his eyes flick back and forth between Steve’s.

    “There was,” he says, right hand gripping the counter behind him in a white-knuckled grasp. “A girl. A small blonde girl.”
