    Summary

    Cassana ‘Cass’ Stark’s life is defined, in every way that matters, by bastards. For one, she is one, almost certainly.

    It’s hardly a secret. Mother quickened—allegedly—on her wedding night. When she gave birth to a girl with red hair and blue eyes, the undecided opinions settled, and uncharitable ones solidified. With that said, Cass’ colouring and suspect parentage might have been overlooked if, A. She had been born a man and, B. Her father hadn’t brought a son back from the war.

    Summary

    "There are…features…about Conner that don’t hold up to scrutiny. Things that don’t match either of his fathers, as disparate and unfeeling as they are to his general…existence. "

    Ficlet prompt fill from @stealingyourbones and @mikami1992 on tumblr: What if the Kryptonian cloning process required a little more refinement than simply adding human DNA?

    Summary

    Prompt from @cyrwrites (And then, I, like, tweaked it a lot.) From prompt: "Tim, as a kid, wishes for a new mom. Desiree didn't know her wishes could turn against HER, of all people. However, Tim's wish had turned her into something resembling a human form and now she felt obligated to take care of the little guy."

    *

    Timothy Drake, son of amateur archaeologists, comes into possession of an antique oil lamp. It's plain enough, despite it's historic value— and it takes nothing at all to figure out how to light it. Alone on his birthday and left alone with a flame, Tim makes a wish.

    *👻🪔👻*

    Desiree wakes up in the corpse of a human woman.

    Summary

    Inspiration taken from @Home-of-Renn's post here:
    "Danny's in his last year of high school, only a month away from graduating. No more overdue assignments or late-night cram sessions. No more crowded hallways and after-school detentions. No more stress.

    He's so close he can almost taste it.

    But then Dani shows up, injured and whimpering and collapsing into his lap.

    He may or may not have scared the daylights out of a few lower years and almost body-slammed Dale trying to get Dani out the door and to the nearest location with first aid supplies. So what if he spent almost an hour holed up with Dani in the nurse's office patching her up while Mr Lancer and the paramedics he called tried to coax him into unlocking the door. So what if his Obsession slipped up after not seeing Dani for more than six months, only to have her show up looking ready to destabilise and melt into a puddle of goo.

    The worst part of it all is that suddenly everyone's got the wrong idea."
