Summary
"Hey, B. Not to freak you out or anything, but… um, I don’t know how not to freak anyone out by saying this, really—dude, he gave me the phone, move it—sorry, that was Damian. Um, anyway, so Dick’s been shot. He’s in the hospital… in the ‘Haven. It’s…you should probably get here. Um…bye.”
Or, the classic hurt/comfort dramatic hospital fic that everyone wants at some point or another.

Summary
“No, you don’t understand,” Wayne cut in, gesturing back at the abandoned warehouse at the edge of the taped-off scene. “These–kidnapping attempts–always start out the same way. Remove the clothes. Humiliate the victim. Make them feel powerless, so they’re less likely to fight back. Remove all sense of their personality so they’re more likely to comply–”
Jim tuned out his rant slightly, examining the small bats on Wayne’s boxers. Ignoring the fact that no underwear was meant to be worn that tight, the tiny decorations were almost…familiar.
“–well, guess what, kidnappers?” Wayne punctuated his point with a jab of his hand, gesturing at his underwear. “I don’t feel powerless. My personality is right here–-”

Summary
Perona used to tell him ghost stories about its previous occupants. Stillbirths and young boys who didn’t come back from the war — spectres for a young Zoro to face sword in hand. She told Zoro not to leave his bedroom on a full moon, to keep his curtains closed once the sun hazed down. She said there were noises at night, that if you lay sweet and still in bed, you heard the thumpings. You heard the wailings.
The Vinsmokes had always lived next door.
***
Modern AU. Zoro met the love of his life when he was four. Three years later, he meets Sanji.

Summary
He gave up Alluka, to have the chance to meet Gon. So now he will give up Gon, to make it up to Alluka.
He can’t have both; he doesn’t deserve one, much less two beautiful souls who accept and love him.
(or the one where Killua sees the world through equivalent exchange and doesn't ever think he's good enough)
