    Summary

    “You keep doing it.”
    “Doing what?” Dick replies.
    There are images in Jason’s mind, ones he doesn't quite know how to interpret yet. Dick alone taking responsibility, the cracking sound his neck had made when he’d taken that blow for Jason that night.
    "You’re deflecting attention onto yourself. Putting yourself in the spotlight.”
    Once upon a time, Jason would have said that mockingly.
    It’s different now.
    Being in the spotlight isn’t exactly the right word for it, not in their line of business.
    Jason reevaluates the term, mulls it over.
    “You’re putting yourself in the line of fire.”

    Summary

    “Peter, is it supposed to be doing that?” One of his students asked him. He looked up to see the industrial-strength magnets he’d collected for this lab trying to crack through the glass between them to be reunited. The glass splintered.

    “Yeah, no. That’s totally fine,” he lied. Then he inconspicuously chased everyone to the corner of the lab, donned a glove, and smashed the glass so that it wouldn’t splinter and stab someone in the eye in its explosion.

    His students cheered.

    He needed a drink.

    (Peter gets called back to the city at the age of 25 to help mitigate the rapidly increasing crime rate. He's in way over his head, so he sets out to re-establish Team Red.)

    Summary

    "Foggy, this is Peter"
    Matt said, lying facedown on the floor.
    Peter raised a spoonful of cereal in greeting.

    What the fuck.

     

    With Spiderman hanging around Daredevil so often, it was bound to happen sooner or later for Peter Parker to meet Matt Murdock's friends.

    How exactly they'd meet, that happened in a variety of ways.

    Summary

    "Foggy, you need to calm down, this isn’t a big deal, it was in college, it’s not like you’re still in love with me.”

    As soon as Foggy says, “Uh-huh,” he knows he’s fucked. His voice cracks in the middle of it so even without Matt’s freaky heartbeat-lie-detector skills he’d be able to tell Foggy is a dirty liar.

    Foggy wishes for another alien invasion as Matt’s eyes grow wide behind his glasses.

    “Oh,” Matt says.

    “Lucifer, your input was not requested or required.”
    “Well then, someone’s being a bit rude.”
