Summary
They have a mutual agreement not to bring up each other’s potentially illegal activities. Kitty sometimes burns stacks of documents and the occasional piece of clothing in a trashcan for him, and Bartimaeus has bailed her out of jail more than once after being caught somewhere she wasn’t supposed to be.
Kitty turns away from the cupboard.
“I’m not taking care of the damn cat.”Kitty and Bart are flatmates. It’s a mess, but so are they, so it works out.

It was about four hours into the latest of Young Just Us’ “smoke sesh”es when Cassie decided she was going to become God, and by Herself, her team was going to help her. It was an official mission now.
Partially inspired by the following post from batcavescolony on Tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/batcavescolony/736037905918754816/a-new-reason-for-why-young-justice-is-all-17-and?source=share

Summary
It seems that the spirit she thought was dead and gone isn’t so dead after all. Kitty could spit she’s so furious.
“This is about the worst way you could tell me you’re alive, Bartimaeus,” Kitty grits through her teeth. Her fingers curl against the countertop, nails nearly cutting into the wood.
The man gives her a confused look. “Sorry,” he says carefully. “I think you’re mistaking me for someone else.”

Summary
Something about its gaze unnerves Bruce–it’s too still, too dead, too cold– and it speaks to the primitive human part of his brain that says ‘enemy!’. Something inside of him tells Bruce that he should kill it before it’s too late. It’s different. Dangerous.
The child, a boy with trailing bruises along his pale skin and eyes that shine just a bit too green, pauses. His fingers nervously pick at the iron collar around his throat.
Despite his petite frame and defeated posture, he registers as an absolute threat.
“You want to kill me too, don’t you?” He whispers, thin voice resigned and tired, the cadence of a man on death row. He sounds as if he’s exhausted by Bruce’s fear.
“How do you know?” Bruce has to ask, curiosity peaking despite how much the hairs of his arms stand up. .
The boy only shrugs.
--
Bruce has a bad habit of picking up abominations, but he's learned a long time ago that sometimes the only thing that monsters need to stop being monsters is a little bit of love.

Summary
Cregan’s drink is warm and flat. He downed his first right when his shift ended and he’s been nestling this one since. He couldn’t afford to wet his thirst, because through the bobs of heads is Jacaerys too-many-last-names-garyen, spinning like a zoned-out ballerina.
If that ballerina had the ability to piss off everyone in the vicinity. So Cregan takes slow sips, because the man is wielding two full drinks and he knows how this story ends.
***
Cregan is an unlicensed bouncer protecting the people from the rich, hot menace that is Jacaerys Velaryon-Targaryen-Strong.
