Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
A ShadowxAurora One Shot
Shadow never meant to keep it. With the limited space in his apartment, a piano wasn't exactly practical. But he'd seen it sitting on the street while on a run, a pathetic little spinet that apparently wasn't worth the effort for repair according to the owner, so it sat in wait for the dump truck.
Omega thought he was nuts when Shadow had used Chaos Control to transport the piano into the apartment, and perhaps he was. The instrument had definitely seen better days, and it would take more than a simple tune up to get it in pristine condition again.
That didn't stop Shadow from shoving the spinet against the wall between his mattress and the front door and then going out to purchase the necessary items for piano repairs.
The spinet became Shadow's passion project over the next several weeks. Any spare moment between his mercenary work with Omega and dates with Aurora, Shadow could be found with the spinet piano, painstakingly doting over the instrument to set it to rights again.
"You never told me you can fix instruments." Aurora had noted once, sitting on the little bench with her legs swinging while half of Shadow's body was inside the back of the spinet.
"Never came up." Shadow had grunted.
"Where'd you learn?" She'd pressed.
Shadow had shrugged. "I did a lot of things while off world, Light. Sometimes I was asked to fix things, and music is universal." Aurora had accepted that answer, and Shadow minutely relaxed.
No way he was EVER going to tell her that some aristocrat across the galaxy had taken fancy to him and tried to get his attention by breaking her piano, just so he'd come and fix it. It was the fastest he'd ever fled a planet. Omega still hadn't let him live it down.
The plan for the spinet once he'd finished repairs was simple enough: take it to the resale shop and get a decent sum of cash for it. He'd contacted the shop, gotten a good offer, and was set to deliver and receive his rings, but when he arrived and saw the buyer...a mother and son duo, the latter whom was whining about how much he HATED piano lessons and was currently and carelessly swinging a baseball bat around in his fit....Shadow took his piano and left.
No way was Shadow going to let all his hard work repairing his baby go to waste on some ungrateful brat that lacked basic appreciation. So, the little spinet piano became a permanent fixture in his apartment.
Shadow had never considered himself a musician of any sort. He was a warrior, a mercenary, the Ultimate Lifeform, a guardian. Music...required a certain softness that Shadow, with all his broken pieces and jagged edges, simply did not possess. But, somehow, that didn't matter. Sitting at his little spinet, gingerly filling his apartment with the soft tones of the classics centered him with a kind of peace he rarely ever achieved...with one exception. When he played, Shadow could pretend that was all there was. Just him and his spinet, creating something beautiful together. It was almost magical, if he believed in such a thing.
Shadow huffed a quiet chuckle, gently resting his hand atop the keys but not pressing down, his thoughts drifting towards the other almost-magical thing in his life. Honestly, if it magic was a thing, Shadow could believe it, because of her. The way she pranced through life, with such light and arms wide open, eager and excited for whatever came her way...could anything else but magical describe his precious Light?
Almost without his command, his fingers gently drifted across the spinet's keys, a delicate melody that swirled and danced through the air. Shadow sighed.
"Though I tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her
In my heart.
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I've done
From the start."
How many times has Shadow looked into those emerald eyes, seen that smile, and choked? It was three simple words, why was it so difficult? He's made peace with the past, hasn't he?
"Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on.
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on."
A sniffle behind him had Shadow whirling around, Chaos Spear halfway formed in his hand and a snarl on his muzzle, when those same piercing emerald eyes damp with tears stopped him dead. Shadow gulped, his ears flattening against his head. Damn. How long had she- Shadow made get up, averting his eyes as embarrassment colored his cheeks rosy red.
And then she's right there, pushing him back down on the bench with pleas of "Please don't stop, don't mind me-," and she's still looking at him with those eyes, pleading and wet, her body pressed tight against his side, lips protruding in the most pitiful pout...
Chaos, he was screwed, wasn't he?
Shadow sighed and tapped her nose with his finger. "You will say nothing to anyone about this." He commanded, and tried to ignore how distracting that beaming smile was in order to return to the piano. He gulped, frozen with his fingers in position. He knew his voice was not what anyone would call gifted, hers was so much better, and he chanced a glance down to his shoulder where she'd laid her head. She smiled at him again, eager and encouraging, and Shadow gulped and resumed playing.
"Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days
SInce we first met?
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me
That ends up getting wet.
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on.
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on."
Shadow rested his cheek against the top of her head, mindful of the short grouping of quills that acted as bangs, closing his eyes momentarily and just breathing.
"I resolve to call her up
A thousand times a day
And ask her if she'll marry me
In some old fashioned way.
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reach the phone.
Long before my tongue has tripped me
Must I always be alone?"
Her arms squeezed him gently, reassuringly, around his middle, and he pressed a kiss to her head in response, smiling at the growing damp spot on his shoulder.
"Every little thing she does is magic,
Everything she does just turns me on.
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on,"
Shadow dropped one hand from the piano and cupped Aurora's cheek, tilting her chin up to look into her eyes, shining with light and joy, and he knew his words wouldn't fail him this time. He smiled at her and leaned his forehead on hers.
"Every little thing you do is magic
Everything you do just turns me on.
Even though my life before was tragic
Know that my love for you goes on."
Shadow ended the song with a soft kiss to her lips, sealing his declaration of devotion with all the love and passion and dedication he had in his heart in the best way he knew how. Words always failed him, but somehow, in this moment, it didn't matter. Aurora wept through his kiss, and he smiled as they parted, a quirk of his mouth so gentle and loving that only she would ever get to see it.
Aurora pounced on him a single moment later, using her own gift of speed to press kiss after kiss on his lips, face, head, everywhere she could reach, glowing so brightly and joyfully exclaiming "I love you"s between kisses. Shadow briefly wondered how she wasn't suffocating before dismissing the thought and basking in their shared love, trading her kisses and words with ones of his own. It didn't matter anyway.
Every little thing she did was magic, after all.

Knuckle series is out!! Any thoughts? Does it affect your Jojo and Gang au?
Spoilers for the Knuckles series people! Avert your eyes children!
First, let's talk about the things I liked:
- Sonic and Tails were great for as little screen time as they had. And Maddie trying to be patient with Knuckles while also not strangling him was great, haha. As someone who worked at a Daycare, I related to her dealing with kids like Knuckles and Maddie's facial expressions when she was grounding Knuckles were on point. Also THEY HAVE A PLAIN BED FOR TAILS AND A TRUCK BED FOR KNUCKLES AHHHHH!!!!!
-Pachacamac is a Jedi Force ghost? Alright then. I don't know much about this character outside of Sonic X but I thought that he was fine. And Christopher Lloyd does a great job as usual.
-Wade was not terrible. I like how he has some character growth through the series and at the end he isn't a master warrior/fighter. He's still a goofball but now he's thinking things through and using what he has and his current surroundings to his advantage in a fight, and isn't just hiding and waiting for Knuckles to save him. But him breaking out of the cage in episode 4 was a bit ridiculous. What was that cage made of, cardboard? He really should have broken his hand or something.
-I liked the villains but I wish that we got to see them more involved in the story, especially the buyer. Who was menacing for about five minutes and then was crushed to death like, dang 0-0
-NANA WHIPPLE AND KNUCKLES SPINOFF SHOW PLEASE!!
-Knuckles was the best part of the show. He's the strong tough warrior but with a big heart and good intentions, though a bit misguided at times. Idris did a great job, nothing new there.
And now let's get into the things I didn't like:
-The show is %70 Wade bowling story and %30 Knuckles adjusting to earth and his backstory with Pachacamac and his tribe and his connection to the master emerald and everything else that the show should have been about. The Wade sub plot takes up so much time that we don't get to explore Knuckles. I wished that we had gotten to see him learn to appreciate and call Earth his new home instead of him just accepting it at the end. It just felt so rushed.
-Episode four wasn't awful but I didn't care for it. Also you can NOT show us the Flames of Disaster from '06 and not have Silver or Blaze show up. You can't do that >:(
-Knuckles and Maddie didn't get to have a heart to heart conversation which is what I and many others thought that was what the show was building up to. Also he never gets in trouble for running way and we never cut back to seeing Maddie or Sonic and Tails realizing Knuckles is gone, or even Sonic and Tails trying to cover for Knuckles. I get that the CGI was expensive and voice actor and actor schedules might not have worked out for it to happen, but my point still stands.
-Wanda was useless and you could have cut her out and lost nothing. Don't get me wrong, the actress is good but she feels wasted here. Her character is so annoying and serves no purpose other than to be mean to Wade. And why do we have to have the "siblings who hate each other but make up at the end" cliche? I would have liked Wanda more if she was nicer to Wade from the start and if they had a fun sibling bond with each other. Also if she was able to actually use her skills as an FBI agent to at least hold her own against the gang when they attack Nanna Whipple's house. Also the dad needed to be more comedically villainous, he was too generic.
-Like I said the villains here are fine but the Buyer's whole character is to just show up, have a cool robot fight, and die. We don't get to see him be a threat to Knuckles at all, he just appears for the climax and then is offed in a snap. And the two agents were fun but a lot of their dialogue was graining.
-And that leads me to the main problem with the series. The writing. I'm aware that the writers for the main movies didn't work much on this series, except Jeff did do the first episode. Which is why it's the best one. There is no balance between the jokes and the emotional moments. The show is so focused on trying to make you laugh every five minutes that it sacrifices genuine emotional growth for the characters especially for Knuckles. You know, the whole reason for the show existing in the first place. It suffers the same problems that the live action Ton and Jerry movie had, where the main stars weren't allowed to be the main stars of their film. All of the screen time there went to the human characters who weren't interesting or just plain annoying and mean.
And the dialogue for the show teeters back and forth between actually funny/well written and being dangerously close to obnoxious. And kids shows having jokes all the time isn't a problem. Rottmnt and the Lego Movies are both kid properties that fire off a joke every minute but they knew when to cut back and let the emotional moments shine. The jokes in the Knuckles show felt more like they were pandering to four year old's then actually trying to be funny and the emotional moments felt kind of forced.
I don't want to give any of the writers or anyone who worked on this show a hard time. I can see that everyone worked hard and had fun with this. And I had fun too. There were some good moments between Knuckles and Wade and even a few jokes that got me. But the problems I listed above are just to hard for me to ignore. If you liked the Knuckles series then great for you! I'm happy you were able to have a great time! But for me it was just ok.
Not great. But not bad either. 5/10.
Now, about this affecting Jojo and Gang. I think what I'll do is have comic take place a month after the Knuckles series. And use my AU to focus on Knuckles getting accustomed to Earth and learning to call it home. Basically my AU will do what the Knuckles series didn't.

How Regular Commercial Truck Repair Services Avoid Costly Breakdowns?
Tumblr media
Commercial trucks are essential for transporting goods and keeping businesses running. But these hard-working vehicles face constant wear and tear. Ignoring minor issues can lead to significant breakdowns, expensive repairs, and lost time. Regular commercial truck repair services help avoid these problems and keep your fleet running smoothly.
Here���s how regular maintenance and repair services can save you from costly breakdowns:
Early Detection of Problems
Routine repair services involve a thorough inspection of your truck. Mechanics check the engine, brakes, tires, and other vital components. This helps them find minor problems before they become significant issues, like oil leaks or worn-out belts. Fixing these early is much cheaper than dealing with a complete breakdown.
Extending the Life of Your Truck
Commercial trucks are a big investment. Regular repair services keep them in good condition, extending their lifespan. When parts are repaired or replaced on time, the truck runs more efficiently and lasts longer, saving you money in the long run by avoiding the need for early replacement.
Preventing Unexpected Downtime
Breakdowns can happen at the worst possible time, delaying deliveries and upsetting customers. Regular repair services reduce the risk of sudden failures. Mechanics ensure that all parts work properly, making your truck less likely to stop working unexpectedly. This keeps your business running without interruptions.
Improving Fuel Efficiency
A poorly maintained truck consumes more fuel. For example, clogged air filters, underinflated tires, or engine issues can reduce fuel efficiency. During regular repairs, mechanics fix these problems, helping you save money on fuel costs. Better fuel efficiency also reduces the environmental impact of your fleet.
Ensuring Safety on the Road
Trucks with faulty brakes, worn tires, or broken lights can be dangerous on the road. Regular repair services address these safety concerns. Mechanics check and fix critical components to ensure your truck is safe to drive. This protects your drivers and other road users while reducing the risk of accidents.
Complying with Regulations
Commercial trucks must meet specific safety and performance standards. Regular repairs ensure your truck complies with these regulations. Mechanics check for any issues during inspections that could result in fines or penalties. Staying compliant avoids legal problems and keeps your business reputation intact.
Reducing Major Repair Costs
Skipping regular commercial truck repair can lead to major problems, like engine failure or transmission breakdowns. These repairs are often expensive and time-consuming. Routine services catch issues early, saving you from spending a fortune on major repairs later.
Maintaining Resale Value
A well-maintained vehicle costs more if you ever decide to sell your truck. Regular repair records show buyers that the truck has been cared for properly, increasing its resale value and making it easier to sell.
Key Services in Regular Truck Repairs
Here are some of the main tasks involved in regular truck repair services:
Oil changes: Keeps the engine running smoothly.
Brake inspections and repairs: Ensures safety and prevents brake failure.
Tire checks: Improves fuel efficiency and reduces the risk of blowouts.
Engine tune-ups: Keeps the engine in top condition.
Fluid checks and replacements: Prevents overheating and component wear.
The Importance of Professional Mechanics
Regular repairs are only effective when done by skilled mechanics. Professionals have the expertise to identify and fix problems correctly. They use advanced tools and high-quality parts to ensure your truck runs efficiently. Trusting experts reduces the risk of errors and gives you peace of mind.
Final Thoughts
Regular commercial truck repair services are essential for avoiding costly breakdowns. They help detect small issues early, prevent downtime, and keep your truck running efficiently. By investing in routine maintenance, you save money, ensure safety, and extend the life of your truck.
Don’t wait for a problem to arise. Schedule commercial truck repair to keep your fleet reliable and your business running smoothly. It’s a wise investment that pays off in the long run.

Comprehensive Guide to Common Car Problems
Tumblr media
While cars boast high reliability within the auto industry, they aren’t entirely free of issues. This comprehensive guide aims to highlight some common car problems that owners or potential buyers should be aware of.
Before we delve into the specifics, let’s establish that these issues do not undermine the overall quality and performance of cars. Every vehicle make and model has its own set of quirks and flaws. The primary objective here is to inform and equip you better when dealing with these problems.
Tumblr media
Car isn’t immune to engine oil leaks. This issue seems to be particularly prevalent in some car models such as the Frontier, Rogue, Versa, and Altima.
In some cases, the issue was traced back to sub-standard bolting used during production.
Despite this, Cars seems to have improved in recent years, with fewer oil leak issues reported.
Causes of Oil Leaks
Overlooking oil leaks can result in sky-high maintenance costs. Most oil leaks originate from degraded engine gaskets or leaky oil pans. Other times, bad connections, fittings, or a broken filler cap might be the culprits.
Depending on the severity, fixing an oil leak in a car could cost anywhere from $100 to $2,000.
Tumblr media
Car has faced significant criticism for rust-related problems, especially with the Navara truck.
Severe rust can weaken the link between the cabin and cargo area, leading to the infamous snapping that can leave the connection completely severed.
While snapping incidents aren’t common, rust issues are. It’s not just the Navara; other models like the Altima and Xterra also face similar issues. Regular inspection of your car’s underbody to ensure it’s rust-free is recommended.
Causes of Rust
Several factors contribute to rusting in cars. Continuous exposure to rain, snow, or sun rays can increase the likelihood of metallic parts rusting. Neglect and lack of proper care can also exacerbate rusting. With time, the paintwork and protective coatings on your vehicle may degrade and wear off, making your car more prone to rust.
Tumblr media
Certain Car models like the Maxima, Pathfinder, Rogue, Murano, Infiniti JX35, and QX60 have reported issues with sunroofs shattering and causing injuries.
The aftermath of exploding sunroofs can result in injuries to passengers and even cause drivers to become disoriented while driving, leading to potentially fatal accidents.
Causes of Sunroof Issues
Extreme weather and debris contact are often blamed for shattering sunroofs. However, most drivers who have experienced sunroof explosions believe it occurs randomly due to substandard engineering. Laminated glass is suggested as a safer alternative to tempered ones for sunroofs, as it won’t shatter suddenly even when compromised.
Tumblr media
Fuel gauge issues in cars often stem from a malfunctioning fuel-sending unit.
When the sending unit fails, it displays incorrect fuel readings, and the fuel gauge can get stuck in either ‘full’ or ‘empty’.
Car has also recalled several vehicles due to faulty fuel gauges.
5. Transmission Issues
Car CVT transmission problems peaked between 2012 and 2015, especially evident in the Sentra and Altima models. Issues involved poor CVT response, vibration, rough running, stuck gear shift, and loss of acceleration. In severe cases, total transmission failure occurred. In case, you are looking for a trusted car mechanic to get the transmission repair, we would like to suggest you Service My Car, the best and trusted car workshop in the town.
Despite these issues, it’s worth noting that cars are unique for their zero-gravity seats feature.
Tumblr media
Over a million cars have been recalled due to backup camera issues.
An error in affected cars allows drivers to tweak their backup camera settings to prevent images from displaying, violating federal safety standards.
Models like the Altima and the Frontier have commonly reported backup camera issues.
Pros and Cons of Vehicles
Cars have their strengths and weaknesses.
Pros
• Exceptional overall performance • Impressive handling • Affordable pricing • Spacious cabin • Sporty design • Comfortable interior
Cons
• Engine stalling • Backup camera issues • Transmission issues • Faulty fuel gauge • Oil leaks • Rust issues
Reviews on Vehicles
According to J.D. Power, vehicles have impressive ratings. The 2021 Altima won the award for the highest quality midsize car, and the Frontier won the award for the most dependable midsize pickup.
Car also has a reliability rating of 4.0 out of 5.0 on RepairPal, ranking 9th out of all 32 car brands.
Final Thoughts
Knowing about these common car problems doesn’t mean you should steer clear of the brand. Instead, this knowledge equips you to make informed decisions when buying or maintaining your vehicle.

Cash For Cars: Turning Your Old Vehicle Into Quick Cash
Introduction
If you have an old car taking up space in your garage or driveway, you might be surprised to learn that it could be turned into quick cash. With the rise of the cash for cars industry, you now have a convenient and hassle-free option to sell your old vehicle and make some money in the process. In this article, we will explore the process of selling your car for cash, the benefits it offers, and how to ensure a smooth transaction.
Understanding the Cash for Cars Industry
The cash for cars industry has gained popularity in recent years as a convenient solution for selling used vehicles. This industry focuses on buying cars in any condition, whether they are damaged, non-running, or simply unwanted. Instead of going through the traditional process of selling a car privately or trading it in at a dealership, you can opt for a cash for cars service to simplify and expedite the sale.
The Benefits of Selling Your Car for Cash
Selling your car for cash offers several advantages over traditional selling methods. Firstly, it eliminates the need for advertising and negotiating with potential buyers. Cash for cars companies will buy your vehicle as-is, saving you time and effort. Additionally, these services often provide free towing, ensuring a hassle-free experience. Finally, cash for cars transactions are typically completed quickly, allowing you to receive payment promptly.
Steps to Sell Your Car for Cash
To sell your car for cash, follow these steps:
Evaluating Your Vehicle
Begin by assessing the condition of your car. Note any significant damages, mechanical issues, or missing parts. This information will help determine the value of your vehicle.
Researching Potential Buyers
Look for reputable cash for cars companies in your area. Read reviews, check their website, and verify their licensing and certifications. It's crucial to choose a trustworthy buyer to ensure a fair and secure transaction.
Obtaining Multiple Quotes
Contact multiple cash for cars companies and provide them with details about your car's make, model, year, and condition. Obtain quotes from each company to compare offers and find the best deal.
Completing the Sale
Once you've selected a buyer, schedule an appointment for them to inspect your car. If both parties agree on the price, finalize the paperwork and receive payment. The buyer will typically arrange for the towing of the vehicle.
Tips for Maximizing the Value of Your Vehicle
While cash for cars services purchase vehicles in any condition, taking a few steps to prepare your car can help maximize its value.
Cleaning and Detailing
Give your car a thorough cleaning, both inside and out. Remove any personal belongings and ensure that it's presentable for the inspection. A clean car can leave a positive impression and potentially fetch a higher offer.
Gathering Relevant Documents
Locate important documents such as the title, registration, service records, and warranty information. Having these readily available demonstrates that you're a responsible owner, which can increase the buyer's confidence and potentially impact the offer.
Addressing Minor Repairs
Although cash for cars companies buy cars in any condition, addressing minor repairs can make your vehicle more appealing. Fixing minor issues like broken lights or replacing worn-out tires can enhance its overall value.
Common Concerns and Frequently Asked Questions
What types of cars are accepted?
Cash for cars companies typically accept all types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles.
Do I need to have a running vehicle?
No, cash for cars services buy both running and non-running vehicles.
Are there any hidden fees?
Reputable cash for cars companies do not charge any hidden fees. The offer you receive is usually the amount you'll receive upon completing the sale.
How long does the process take?
The duration of the process depends on various factors, such as your location and the buyer's availability. However, most transactions can be completed within a few days.
What happens to my car after it's sold?
Once your car is sold, cash for cars companies may refurbish it for resale, salvage it for parts, or recycle it in an environmentally friendly manner.
Conclusion
Selling your cash for car provides a convenient and efficient way to get rid of your old vehicle while making some extra money. By understanding the cash for cars industry, following the necessary steps, and considering the tips mentioned, you can ensure a smooth and profitable transaction. Say goodbye to your old car and hello to quick cash!
FAQs
Can I sell my car for cash if it's financed?
Yes, you can still sell your financed car for cash. However, you must first settle the outstanding loan balance before completing the sale.
Are cash for cars offers negotiable?
In most cases, cash for cars offers are final and non-negotiable. However, it's always worth exploring multiple quotes to find the best deal.
Is selling my car for cash safe?
Selling your car for cash is generally safe if you choose a reputable cash for cars company. Conduct thorough research and read reviews to ensure a secure transaction.
Can I sell a car without a title?
Selling a car without a title can be challenging. Cash for cars companies typically require a clear title to complete the sale.
What if my car doesn't pass the inspection?
If your car doesn't pass the inspection, the buyer may adjust their offer or decline the purchase. It's advisable to be transparent about your vehicle's condition from the beginning.

The Potty Mouth - Dick Grayson x Reader
Tumblr media
Warning - Swear words and adult themes related to said swearing are ahead!
Requested by Anon - dick grayson!robin x reader where reader is very loud and gets excited easily, also has a bad potty mouth and robin finds it hilarious whenever reader is roasting somebody or upsetting kaldur with their colorful language and jokes
***
Dick moaned, rubbing his head as he sat up. The ground was cold and hard beneath him. The truck they had been driving was several feet away, rolled on it’s side. Deep tire tracks embedded the ditch they crashed in. 
“Is everyone okay?” Dick called out. He slowly got to his feet. Pain flared throughout his whole body, but no broken bones. Just bruises. 
“I’m fine,” Artemis said as she crawled out the window of the truck. “Might have a bit of whiplash.” She rubbed her neck.
Dick nodded, moving toward the truck. “KF? (Y/N)?” He saw a shoe trapped under the truck. His heart flew into his throat before he saw it wasn’t attached to a body. He sighed in relief. “Any sign of the thugs we were following?”
Artemis looked around, but the road was empty. “Gone.” She sighed, closing her eyes and sank to the ground. 
“Try to stay whelmed. I’ll take a look for them,” Dick said, noting how much she was holding her head. She probably had a concussion too. This mission was going south fast.
It was supposed to be a simple surveillance mission. You, Dick, Artemis, and Wally were tailing the suspected Kobra agents after they picked up an unknown substance from a black market buyer. However, another vehicle appeared and forced them off the road. 
“That’s the last time we let Artemis drive,” Wally groaned from somewhere in the woods beside the road. Dick followed the groan to find Wally laying on the ground holding his arm. “I think I broke my arm.”
“Steady, Kid Mouth.” Dick knelt down to check his arm. “It’s just dislocated.”  Wally coughed. Dick helped him to his feet. “Have you seen (Y/N)?”
“Well, if they aren’t dead, I’m sure we’ll hear them soon enough.” Wally stumbled toward Artemis and sat down beside her. The two started arguing. Dick rolled his eyes. 
Dick went deeper into the woods. He mentally mapped out the crash, trying to work out how far you could have been thrown. You were leaning out the window when the truck hit the gravel. 
“Son of a bitch!” Your voice echoed from behind Dick. Dick spun, running back down the road.
“I told you!” Wally said, snorting. Artemis slapped the back of his head. Wally yelped.
“(Y/N)?!” Dick stopped when he found you lying against a tree. Your leg bent at an odd angle. 
You narrowed your eyes at him. “I swear to god, if you move me, I’ll skin you alive and feed you to fucking man-eating sharks.”
Dick smiled, mostly in relief. “The sharks would be fucking and eating at the same time?” He dropped to his knees beside you, gently inspecting your leg. 
“Watch it. It hurts like a motherfucker ran it over with his fucking semi.” You hissed. Wally and Artemis slowly walked over to join you and Dick. 
“That’s because it’s broken.” Dick ran a hand through his hair. “This mission was a disaster, heavy on the dis.”
“Batman and Black Canary will put us through another fifty hours of surveillance training.” Wally sat down beside you. 
Artemis collapsed on your other side. “Actually, only you should have to do that Bay-Watch. You’re the one who grabbed the wheel and caused us to crash.”
Dick rolled his eyes as he sent out a distress signal. 
“Will you two bitches just shut up?!” You exploded, throwing your hands in the air. Both Wally and Artemis fell silent. Dick ducked his head to hide his smile. “One, it was neither of your faults or both. I don’t give a fuck.” You held up one finger. “Two, we were in the shit the moment they made us.” Another finger went up. “Three, we didn’t fail the mission.”
“What?” Dick blinked as he was checking his belt for first aid supplies. “What do you mean?” 
You smirked before shifting to get something from your pocket. “Shit.” Blood drained out of your face when you moved your leg. Artemis helped you pull your phone from your pocket. You tapped the now partly shattered screen before holding up a tracer app. “I got a tracker on their car before we crashed and it looks like their hideout is in Bludhaven.”
Dick laughed hard. He was tempted to kiss you, but Artemis hugged you from the side before he could even get close enough. “I should have known you did something when you went half out the window.” 
Wally sighed. “Great job, (Y/N).” He nudged your side. 
“Someone had to do something while you two make yourselves look like damn fools.” You smiled, meeting Dick’s eye. Dick nodded at you, turning to focus on your leg so you wouldn’t see the blush on his cheeks. 
***
“Wait, so we don’t get to finish what we started,” Dick said, walking over to Batman after he just finished a mission briefing for Kaldur, M’gann, Conner, Zatanna, and Raquel. Artemis and Wally were behind him, equally disgruntledly.
“Yeah, Batman, we were the ones who found out where Kobra is,” Wally said, crossing his arms. Artemis nodded.
The others shared looks, staying out of it. Batman turned to glare at the three. “You are recovering.” Batman straightened himself to his full height. “You are all off until you are cleared medically. I suggest you take this time to rest.” Batman turned to the others. “You have your mission.”
The silence filled the room as Batman left. Once he was out of range, everyone sighed in relief. “Hey, look at it this way, you guys get to celebrate Halloween,” M’gann said, smiling brightly to cheer up the three.  “And you can keep (Y/N) company.”
“Oh joy. We get to hang out with the potty mouth.” Wally threw his hands in the air. Dick had to admit, if he was grounded from missions, at least hanging out with you would be a sweet deal. 
“At least they’re better company than you,” Artemis snapped, punching his arm. Wally winced, rubbing his arm and narrowing his eyes at her. 
Kaldur held up a hand. “Enjoy your time off and recover, my friends.”
“We’ll try not to have too much fun,” Raquel said, nudging Zatanna. Zatanna giggled.
“Besides, we’ll have some peace and quiet for once,” Conner mumbled. M’gann touched his arm, shaking her head. 
Dick put his hands in his pocket. It hurt when the team made their passive aggressive comments about you. At least they were never to your face. He imagined your face falling, heartbroken. That he couldn’t let happen ever.
The others said their goodbyes and left. Wally and Artemis started snapping at each other. Dick shook his head at the two of them and slipped out of the room.
“Hey Robbie, guess what?!” Your voice made Dick smile. He stepped into the living room to find you on the couch. Your casted leg rested on the coffee table next to a big pumpkin shaped bowl filled with Halloween candy and several bottled drinks. 
“What?” Dick hopped over the couch to sit next to you. You were wearing a sweatshirt with a green skeleton on it. He remembered you showing off how it glowed in the dark. 
You grinned and pointed to your laptop. “I got the new horror game you told me about.” Dick leaned over to see the main menu on your screen.
“Wow, I’m whelmed.” Dick laughed, loving the excited sparkle in your eye. “I should put it on the big screen.”
“Could you?” Your eyes widened, bouncing in your seat. “That would be fucking amazing! A hundred times scarier!” Dick took your laptop and knelt down next to the tv to get it set up. You watched him, clapping your hands. “We’re going to feel the aster! Until the first scare anyway!”
“What are you two doing?” Artemis asked, walking in and taking a seat in the armchair. 
Dick chuckled, answering her since your mouth was full of candy. “Celebrating Halloween by playing the scariest game to date.” He heard you clapping excitedly in agreement.
Artemis reached over to take a candy bar as Wally zoomed in. Wally helped himself to a handful of candy and sitting down to Dick. “Are you seriously planning on hanging out with (Y/N) all night?” he mumbled in Dick’s ear with his mouth full.
“Yes.” Dick elbowed his side. “It will be fun.”
Wally snorted, going to sit on the armchair opposite of Artemis. “So what are we playing?” Wally asked with slight disinterest. You laughed and explained the game to him. Your hands moved as you talked. Dick moved back to sit next to you, close enough for his hip to brush against yours. You didn’t notice since you were still describing the game to Wally.
Artemis, however, raised an eyebrow at Dick. A smirk played onto her face. Dick just stared back at her, daring her to say something. “So should we start the game?” Wally asked, taking another handful of candy. 
“Yes please!” You bumped Dick’s side. “You play first, Rob. I trust you to get us killed in the first three minutes.”
Dick scoffed, pressing his hand against his chest. “Hey, I have a danger sense.” You laughed loudly, getting Artemis and Wally to join you. Dick grabbed the controller. His heart skipped a beat when you snuggled a little closer to him as the game started.
***
“Whatever you do, don’t open that door,” Wally said, scooting closer to you and Dick. He fallen out of his chair when Dick opened the wrong door last time. 
“No, you got to open that door. It’s got to be the way out,” Artemis said from her place on the couch beside Dick. Dick bit his lip, looking at you as you studied the screen. “It’s a different color from the others.”
“I don’t know.” You chewed your bottom lip. “If we die now, we’ll lose all our progress.” You clenched your hands around the controller. The lights were dimmed, candy bowl full of wrappers and empty drink bottles. 
Dick laid his hand on your wrist. “Stay whelmed. We got this. This is the right door. Art’s right, the color is different.” He moved his hand when you met his eye. He hoped it was dark enough to hide his blush.
“It could just be different because of the graphics. Don’t do it,” Wally argued, covering his face with his hands. 
“We can’t just stay in this hallway forever, open the door.” Artemis nudged Wally with her foot. “If we die, at least we tried to make progress.”
You glanced at all three. Dick could feel how fast your heart was racing from just having his body pressed against yours. Artemis was leaning in quite a bit. “Your choice, (Y/N).” 
“Oh fuck this.” You opened the door. It was a normal bedroom. All four of you sighed in relief. Suddenly in the game, you were spun around and a terrifying ghost face filled the screen. All four of you screamed as the screen went black. 
You wrapped your arms around Dick, squeezing all the air out of him. Dick choked. “I told you,” Wally panted, hand against his chest. 
“Shut up.” Artemis took a deep breath before laughing. 
“Oops, sorry,” you said, pulling away from Dick. He noted you didn’t meet his eye. “I squeezed the shit out of you.”
Dick just chuckled. “I’m fine. That got all of us.” He let out a breath, running a hand through his hair. “Who’s next?”
Wally held up a hand for the controller. You were about to hand it to him when a metallic clang came from the kitchen. “What was that?” Artemis hissed, glancing toward the dark kitchen. The four of you were the only ones in the cave. Red Tornado was on Watchtower duty. 
Your hand found Dick’s and held it in a death grip. Dick smiled at you. He had to admit his heart was racing too. “It was nothing?” 
Suddenly, a hand landed on Dick’s shoulder. Dick’s soul left his body as a somewhat high pitch scream slipped out of his mouth. You screamed with him. Wally and Artemis jumped to their feet, shouting as well. 
“Computer, lights on.” Batman’s voice barely made it over everyone’s cries. The lights brightened to reveal the Dark Knight himself. Dick stared at him, stopping his scream only when he caught the faint hint of a smirk on Batman’s lips. Bruce thought this was funny. Dick frowned.
“Son of a bitch, Batman!” You glared back at him, swatting his hand away from Dick’s shoulder. “What the fuck? Can’t you announce your presence like a normal person?”
“Language, (Y/N).” Batman frowned. “I heard the screams and became concerned.”
Wally sighed, running a hand over his face. “Geez, Batman. Not cool.”
“Very not cool.” Artemis blushed when she realized she grabbed Wally’s arm. She quickly let go and looked away. 
“Perhaps it’s time for all of you to go to bed,” Batman said, crossing his arms. “It’s almost midnight.” 
“On a Saturday when it’s Halloween?” You grabbed your crutches and stood up to face Batman. “Seriously? It’s bad enough you took all four of us off missions for a week or more, but now you want us to go to bed because we were having fun?” You narrowed your eyes at him. “Maybe you should go to bed if you can’t handle our screaming or go be Mr. Dark and Scary in Gotham? I mean if you don’t prowl around on Halloween, then what’s the point of dressing like a bat anyway?” 
Dick snorted and pressed his hand over his mouth to stop a laugh. Batman leveled a bat-glare at you, but you just smiled at him almost sweetly. Artemis and Wally couldn’t stop their chuckles, but quickly looked away from you and Batman.
“Keep it down.” Batman shot a warning look to Dick. Dick shrank a little. Batman swept out of the room, letting his cape flick behind him. 
“Coward,” you said once Batman was gone. You sat back down next to Dick. “You good?”
“Feeling the aster...” Dick let more laughter spill out of him. “That was awesome, (Y/N).” 
Artemis sank back down on the couch. “I never understand how you can stand up to him.”
“He’s not that scary when your face to face with him.” You winked at Artemis. “Just imagine him in his underwear and he’s not scary at all.”
Wally groaned in disgust. “Yuck, I didn’t need that image.” Artemis and you laughed. Dick beamed, watching you. He memorized your laugh, the joy in your eyes. Best night ever.
***
The next week, Dick, Wally, and Artemis were cleared for missions. You were still prohibited due to your cast. It hurt to see you so bummed. Dick did his best to make you smile and laugh, but he knew you were itching to get back in the field.
Dick stretched his arms, happy to be in his suit again. Kaldur, Artemis, and Wally were waiting for the mission briefing. Dick joined him. “Where’s the others?” Artemis asked as she checked the tautness of her bow.
“M’gann and Conner have an overnight field trip,” Kaldur said. Wally munched loudly on a bag of chips. Kaldur frowned at him, shaking his head. “Zatanna and Raquel had other commitments.” 
“Oh my god, will you look at this? You’re all dressed up, but have no place to go?” you teased as you hobbled into the room on your crutches. 
“We got a mission, (Y/N).” Artemis put her bow away. 
Your face fell slightly. “Must be exciting.”
Dick perked up, hopping over to you somewhat eagerly. “It’s not that bad.”
“Says you, it’s boring.” You sighed, nudging Dick’s side. Dick’s body electrified at the touch. 
He grinned. “Come on, we’ll play the game again when I get back.”
You smiled at him in return. Wally started making kissing sounds. You looked at him in confusion while Dick’s soul left his body. “Enough, Wallace,” Kaldur ordered, elbowing his side. 
Batman came through the zeta tube all business. You were about to leave, but Dick touched your arm. “Stay, I think we can find you something to do,” Dick whispered. Your eyes widened eagerly.
“Hell yes!” You grinned when everyone turned to look at you. Batman glared. You just shrugged and listened in on the briefing.
***
Dick sat next to you in the bioship, watching you as you barely contained your excitement at being on a mission. Since M’gann wasn’t here, the team had to use comms. So, Dick was able to convince Batman that they’d need someone to manage the comms from the bioship. He touched his lips. You had squealed and kissed him when Batman finally said yes.
“Aren’t you guys lucky? You get to mess with the fucking snake people anyway,” you said, glancing between Wally, Artemis, and Dick. During the team’s last mission to infiltrate Korba’s Bludhaven warehouse, they had uncovered coded intel detailing another operation of theirs. Thus, giving you all a chance at finishing the mission that started it all. 
“Language, (Y/N).” Kaldur blushed, shifting in his seat. 
You shared a devious smile with Dick. “Sorry, I meant the damn fucking snake people.” 
Dick chuckled, glancing at Kaldur to only see him glaring. “(Y/N), watch your language on the comms. We cannot be distracted in the field,” Kaldur ordered sternly. 
“Okay, okay.” You held up your hands. “I’ll close my potty mouth.”
“Finally.” Wally snorted from his seat. You turned to look at him blankly. Wally just looked back at you. 
“If it annoys Wall-man, then please keep your potty mouth open,” Artemis said. You laughed. Your laughter was infectious, soon everyone was chuckling along with you. Dick reached over to touch your hand. You opened your hand, letting his hand rest in yours. Dick’s heart fluttered, so glad you were able to join the mission. 
***
Dick peeked through an air vent at the Kobra warehouse. “It looks like a training faculty,” Dick mumbled into his comm. Wally crawled forward to look through the vent as well. The room below had training mats and equipment scattered around. Two Kobra men were sparring in the center of the room while a group surrounded them, watching. “This might be where they take new enlistees.” 
“We found what looks like a medical bay,” Artemis said. She and Kaldur went one way through the vents while Wally and Dick went the other way. Meanwhile, you stayed in the bioship, mapping out the locations as they found things.
“Now if either of you finds a sex dungeon, then this warehouse will officially be the creepiest place ever,” you said, gagging slightly. The last room Dick and Wally found was some kind of lab that appeared to be growing some kind of snake humanoids. 
Kaldur clicked his tongue in warning. “(Y/N), I think you almost got Kaldur to burst into flames that time,” Artemis chuckled softly.
“One down. Now I just need to get Wally,” you laughed. Wally frowned, unamused. Dick bit his lip to stop himself from snickering.
Dick and Wally kept crawling on. Artemis and Kaldur found another lab, but this time with incubators in it. Dick and Wally only found the living quarters. 
“I don’t like the look of these labs, Rob,” Wally mumbled as they stopped at another vent only to find an empty hallway. 
“At least we can stay whelmed by the fact it doesn’t look like they are using them currently,” Dick said, holding up a hand when footsteps came down the hallway. Wally and Dick fell quiet. The footsteps were heavy and echoing. Dick frowned. Kobra’s soldiers were usually light on their feet.
Suddenly, the footsteps revealed lizard men. They were huge, muscle bound with thick tails. Walking on two legs, they only were wearing loincloths. “We found something,” Wally whispered into the comm.
“Sex dungeon?” you asked with a giggle. 
“Almost.” Dick tapped the side of his mask, sending you an image of the lizard men. You whistled. “Everyone be on alert.”
“We found some too. Ours are eating...raw meat,” Kaldur said. He sounded a little sick. Honestly, Dick couldn’t blame him.
You hummed. “So Kaldur, you didn’t find anything like this at the Bludhaven place, right?”
“No. Nothing like this. It was only a storage facility.” Kaldur’s voice softened. “Artemis and I will go on radio silence for now. We will see if we can find more info in the lab we found.”
Dick and Wally tensed as the lizard men stopped right below them and stood against the walls of the corridor. “You know, those loincloths are very tiny. Must not be much under there,” you said.
Wally choked, eyes wide as if he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Dick swallowed back a laugh. He knew Wally had probably been thinking the same thing.
“You got Wally,” Dick whispered.
“Amazing. Two for two,” you laughed. “In all seriousness, be careful. They probably have good hearing.”
Dick nodded. “Will do.” He clicked off the comm as he and Wally got comfortable, waiting to see what the lizard men were going to do.
***
It turned out, much to Dick’s dismay, that the lizard men had very good hearing. Dick held his stomach as he rolled onto his back. He turned his head to see Wally and Artemis unconscious. The lizard men found Kaldur and Artemis first. Dick and Wally moved to help them before getting caught themselves. 
Dick looked around. He remembered being dragged by his foot into another room. The floor felt soft under him. He recognized the ceiling as the training room they found earlier. 
“Do what you will with us, but know the Justice League is on their way,” Kaldur said calmly. Dick turned his head, blinking in surprise. Kaldur was facing down one of the lizard men. The lizard man just flicked his tongue at him before pushing Kaldur to the ground. 
Dick acted like he was going to scratch his ear, but tapped his comm to signal you. 
“What’s up?” You sounded calm, yet slightly bored. 
“SOS,” Dick coughed, rolling out of the way as a lizard man almost stomped on him. 
“I know. Help is on the way once I can figure out how to fly this damn thing. Bioship, be nice to me, huh?” you said through the comm. 
Kaldur grabbed Dick and pulled him out of the way of a charging lizard man. “You noticed Kobra disappeared?” Dick said, checking the room only to see lizard men. 
“Yes.” Kaldur grabbed his water bearers. “(Y/N), call for back up,” Kaldur said into the comm.
“Back up is incoming.” Your voice sounded so confident. Dick felt slightly worried. “Tell the lizards to keep their loincloths on.”
“Oh boy,” Dick said. Dick and Kaldur stood back to back, preparing to fight off the lizards. Artemis stirred a few feet away and went over to pull Wally out of the harm’s way. She tapped his cheeks and tried to bring him around. 
Kaldur and Dick tensed, ready for the first attack before an explosion shook the building. “You may want to take cover,” you warned. Dick and Kaldur shared a look before sprinted over to Artemis and Wally. Both of them dragged them behind a set of barbells as the far wall boomed to reveal the Bioship with cannons out. 
“This is the cops. Drop to your knees and please keep the loincloths on because no one wants to see lizard dick today, thank you.” Your voice boomed throughout the building.
“I didn’t know Bioship had a PA system,” Artemis mumbled in surprise. Kaldur’s face fell into his hands. His ears were bright red.
Dick chuckled. “I bet (Y/N) asked Bioship to make one.” You were so cool. A thrill shivered down Dick’s spine.
The lizards didn’t drop, so you opened fire. All the lizards were down in a few seconds. Stunned, not dead. Dick whistled. He reminded himself never to play Call of Duty with you. You would probably snipe him before he could even breathe. 
“Justice League should be here ‘in a flash’ according to the Flash,” you said through the comms. Dick could hear the laughter in your voice.
Kaldur cleared his throat. “Thank you, (Y/N). Although, watch your language next time.” 
Wally moaned, sitting up with Artemis’ help. “Lizard dicks. I can’t believe they said lizard dicks.”
Artemis snorted before bursting out laughing. Dick joined her, unable to stop himself. He heard you laughing with them through the comm. Even Kaldur smiled and rolled his eyes. Dick knew your loudness and potty mouth weren’t for everyone, but he loved it because it was so you.

Venturing into the End Zone is always a risk.
For most it is the risk of hostile confrontation. In the years since the EMP disaster destroyed the functionality of all electronic devices the world has become darker. Harsher. Stranger. Extreme weather fronts and depleting resources have resulted in almost all persons developing a kind of Machiavellian mentality- every man, or woman, for themselves. As a result, the good nature of humanity can no longer be trusted, and therefore it is better to avoid other people as much as is possible.
Avoiding people has always been Erik’s strong point. Even before the catastrophic events that took place just over a decade ago Erik has never much willingly sought out the company of others. It was always safer to live in isolation, as much as practically possible, and so when the world began to fall apart it was very easy for Erik to pack up what little possessions he had and head for the wilderness; a small hunting cabin in a remote location in the mountains that soon became his permanent home. Far enough away from civilisation that he would not be disturbed, but close enough that he could seek out supplies when necessary. Like today.
As Erik heads deeper into the End Zone he can’t help but look around apprehensively. What once was a thriving coastal town is now row after row of boarded up houses half-buried in snowdrifts, fronted by broken down cars and trucks all rendered inoperable by the EMP. The only vehicles still viable are older models without electronic parts, like the large magenta truck Erik is driving. The nature of Erik’s mutation- his ability to manipulate metal ore and metallic energy fields- has meant he has been able to keep the vehicle going a lot longer than most, and that makes him a target. Humanity can be hostile at the best of times, but even more so when their very chance of survival is at stake.
Erik pulls into a side road, manoeuvring the truck down a narrow alleyway behind the back of an old superstore. After parking up he uses his powers to drag a large metal sheet- presumably once part of the superstore’s roof- in front of the vehicle to hide it from view. What the sheeting doesn’t hide the snow surely will; dense flurries continuing to fall down as Erik turns away from the truck, pulling the hood of his coat over his head and zipping up the front as high as it will go. These days the temperature rarely gets above zero, and as such warm clothing is essential to combat the chill. Often though it doesn’t really help, and the possibility of freezing to death is a very real threat. If the EMP hadn’t made it clear the weather certainly does- the planet has had enough of being mistreated, and it is trying to rid itself of humankind once and for all.
Part of Erik can’t help but grimly wish it luck. He has never been very fond of his fellow man, or woman- even the mutant ones. If the world wants to kill them all then so be it, only... he can’t just give up. It is not in Erik’s nature to surrender, and so he finds himself fighting for survival each day- some days harder than others- and knows he will continue to try for as long as it takes.
Mercifully the snow starts to thin out as Erik nears his destination. In the distance he can see the lights coming from the market, a hazy glow in the air illuminating each shimmering flake of snow as it falls to the ground. Sounds can be heard too- a hum of activity that confirms to Erik that the monthly event looks to be as busy as ever. Every time Erik is driven by necessity to attend he hopes it will be quieter than it was the last time, but it never is. The world may be dying, but evidently there are still enough people left in it to be drawn together like this.
As Erik approaches the building he slips one hand into the pocket of his jacket, running his fingers over the two small metal balls contained there. Carrying a gun wouldn’t be unusual given the current circumstances but Erik has never liked firearms, and his method of defence enables him to have the element of surprise if needed. It has been needed, more often than Erik would like, and therefore he knows only too well the damage that can be caused with the right application of force and pressure. The intention is to avoid confrontation if possible- to just get in, get the necessary supplies, and get out without incident- but if that can’t be done at least Erik has the means to defend himself. Which is more than can be said for others...
The door to the building swings open and the first thing Erik sees is them, though he tries not to. The large hall is stocked full of merchants- people buying and selling supplies of all varieties; food, water, medicine, building materials, clothing, weapons. But there are people too- not trading, but being traded. Bought and sold, for whatever means their purchaser desires. In a post-apocalyptic world the possibilities are limitless, and horrifying... As Erik begins to walk past, attempting to just ignore their presence, he can’t help feeling grateful that he has the means to prevent himself from succumbing to such a fate.
Get in, get supplies, get out...
Voices clamour for attention- sellers touting their wares, buyers trying to secure a bargain. It’s too loud. The isolation of Erik’s day-to-day life has made it harder than ever for him to be around others, and every moment spent inside the market hall is distinctly unpleasant. He needs to just find what he is looking for so he can leave as soon as possible. There is no time for distraction or delay.
Across the room Erik sees what he needs- the trio of traders he usually deals with, who will have everything he requires and won’t try to engage with him any more than is necessary. The noise seems to lessen as Erik centres his focus and begins to cross the room, edging past throngs of bartering patrons, ignoring anyone who tries to engage with him. He doesn’t look to the side, doesn’t inspect the array of goods on offer, doesn’t get distracted, until--
Blue... So much of the world is muted now, little more than shades of black and white blurring together, with nothing bright or alive about it. Consequently the sudden shock of colour in that moment is so compelling and so vivid. It forces Erik come to a sudden halt before he can think to correct himself. Immediately the nearby seller starts to try to engage with Erik, listing off the varied and numerous features of the wares on offer, but Erik does not hear them. There are perhaps twenty people there in front of Erik but in that moment he sees only one.
Pale, freckled skin. Dark hair that curls at the ends. A face half-obscured by the thick, leather muzzle covering his mouth and jaw. And the eyes... Erik doesn’t think he has ever seen a shade of blue so vivid before. Instantly he feels it, there in his gut. He has never wanted anything more.
This wasn’t the plan. Get in, get supplies, get out... Erik repeats the mantra to himself, tries to make it a command. But the frightened specimen on his knees in front of Erik stops looking frantically around the room for the first time, lifts his head up, stares directly at Erik.
The words come out before Erik can think to stop them.
“How much for this one?”
