So the @dcu-rarepair exchange is finished up so I can share my gifts!

For boyswonder, 'put my lips to something'.

Kaldur'ahm/Dick Grayson

Summary:

Dick and Kaldur are on a simple mission to investigate some strange occurrence off the coast of Happy Harbor. It should be a simple little mission to retrieve some data, perhaps they could banter a little, maybe Dick could summon the courage to ask Kaldur on another date.

They may be biting off more than they can chew.

How it feels to rest (on your patient lips) by anonymous for byrdsofthenyte

Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics Mature | Underage David Isherwood/Joseph Wilson Guilt didn’t prevent David from spending the boy’s heats holed up with him, or from finally being able to listen to his moans and whimpers once Joey could make them, using the device David himself had created specifically to allow him to use his voice again. It didn’t prevent him from lying to people, and from keeping it a secret so that no one could take it away from them.

Who Shot First? by anonymous for coolerdazai

Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics Teen and Up | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Roy Harper/Jason Todd/Slade Wilson “There’s a rumour going ‘round,” the first guy at the table said, lifting his glass of beer to his mouth. “That the Red Hood himself has promised his hand to anyone who will kill the clown.” The rest of the table turned to him in shock. “Is that actually true?” Scars asked. He was a big guy with a dozen or so claw marks across his face and a stiff sneer. “That’s what I’ve heard,” the first man to speak replied. “Whoever kills the clown gets to mate Red Hood.” 

You Don't Gotta Go To Work (but you gotta put in the work) by anonymous for boyswonder

Art | Teen and Up | No Archive Warnings Apply Dick Grayson/Kaldur'ahm | Jackson Hyde That feeling when you both really need to get to an important Justice League meeting, but your partner insists on needing help putting his boots on.

put my lips to something by anonymous for boyswonder

Omegaverse AU, Sex Pollen Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply Dick Grayson/Kaldur'ahm | Jackson Hyde Dick and Kaldur are on a simple mission to investigate some strange occurrence off the coast of Happy Harbor. It should be a simple little mission to retrieve some data, perhaps they could banter a little, maybe Dick could summon the courage to ask Kaldur on another date. They may be biting off more than they can chew.

But without a body Arsenal refuses to believe them. Tim knows his best bet at rescuing Jason lies with Roy Harper. Tim convinces Roy to take him on the road trip to chase down an alien ship and rescue the man they both love.

the animosity of dandelions by anonymous for Nightwang

Explicit | Rape/Non-Con Stephanie Brown/Pamela Isley Vigilantism has rules. Rule number one: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Prepare for the worst. Rule number two: If a situation looks too good to be true, it is. Don't trust it. Steph finds herself backed into a corner with no way out, but she's not going down without a fight.

Wait That's Not What Omega Beams are Supposed to do, Is It??? by anonymous for somagni

Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply John Constantine/Clark Kent "They weren't expecting me. They actually set up a barrier so that I wouldn't notice them, except..." "'cept, just their rotten luck, it was across the street from you and your mates," John said. "And, when they spotted great old Man of Steel, their 'amateur magician' panicked, and hit you with a - what did he call it?" Superman looked uncomfortable, eyes flickering away. "I, uh... I think he was trying to replicate Darkseid's powers. Specifically, his 'Omega Beams'." "Your amateur magician was a fucking moron," John said, because what kind of idiotic human tried to summon the power of a New God? "Yeah, well, he certainly hit me with an omega beam." Superman's cheeks were pink, pretty and rosey. Kryptonians don't have a secondary gender dynamic, and neither does Clark... Until now.

Ceasefire by anonymous for forestgreen

Vikings AU Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply Apollo/Midnighter/Jason Todd Their bond is something forged in fiercer flames.

Tara and Joseph by anonymous for lovesickseraph

And The World Keeps Spinning by anonymous for BearlyWriting

Mature | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Mia Dearden/Jason Todd Everyone keeps assuring her that the Red Hood is as crazy and out of control as any other murdering creep in a costume; that she was lucky to survive. Some of them, like Batman and Nightwing, actually know the guy. And they have a lot of experience. Way more than her. They know what they’re talking about. It’s just… She is lucky she got away. Really lucky. Despite her training, Red Hood had captured her as easily as picking up his dry cleaning. If he’d really wanted to hurt her, it would have been all too easy. The only conclusion is that he let her go. It takes three days to accept that truth. After that… well, the floodgates have been thrown open. Everything that’s happened, all the shit she’s been through in her life… it's scary how easily she can picture going the other way, letting the anger and bitterness and bone-deep injustice lead her down a more violent path of vengeance and righteous fury.

“Alright. Nasty.” Tim grumbled. “And that is probably Kon.”  “My new boyfriend~,” Jason singsonged, the shit-eating grin on his face melting when Dick, without raising his face from Jason’s shoulder, rested his now thoroughly-chilled glass where Jason’s shirt rolled up and showed skin.  Mature | No Archive Warnings Apply  Dick Grayson/Kon-El | Conner Kent/Jason Todd

Never Alone by Anonymous for neoteroi 

Dick gives a small, sad smile. “So you do care.”  John stops and looks Dick in the eye.

They met in the dark. They always did, in rooftops and corners where the light hugged the darkness, forming the perfect scenery for a forbidden romance. Just like them, really.

“You’ve thought about it, haven’t you? Kids?”  Clark steps back and bumps into the counter. Kon follows him, crowding him, the heat of his body practically physical in the little room. Clark has thought about it. It’s not a possibility for him and he knows it. But he thinks about it.’  Kon is Kryptonian, even if Clark might not like it. Which means he’s the only one who can give Clark what he needs.  Explicit | Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Underage  Clark Kent/Kon-El | Conner Kent
