Summary
One by one, the bishops of the old faith are brought into the Lamb's Cult. The Lamb has a plan for them: put them on trial in front of the cult, followed by the worst punishment possible for a former god to endure: servitude to the followers they tortured and sacrificed.
Technically takes place in the same universe as my other COTL works, but you don't have to read them.

Summary
Narinder had once loved his siblings and yet they had betrayed him, had chained him, had abandoned him. Then he had put his faith in the Lamb, believing they would free him at last, and again he was betrayed. Perhaps these were just the consequences of his own actions, but even so, now he is enslaved, made mortal, and he must find a way to live when all he has ever known is death.

Who Tends to the Shepherd Whom Herds the Flock? by EpicAandK

Summary
Prophecy is a fickle thing; any deity worthy of their title and power should know this.
Trusting to blindly in prophecy is a fool’s errand.
Yet attempting to outrun prophecy often brings one straight to it.
When a deity rests, unlike mortals, they do not dream. No. They prophesize. Visions of the past, visions of the future, or nothing at all.
It was most common for a god to simply see nothing while resting.
Out of the five bishops of the old faith it was Shamura was the most likely to receive these prophecies. Many trusted in Shamura’s words, they foresaw each and every one of his siblings, they prophesied the formation of the old faith, they raised each and every bishop of the old faith.
So, when Shamura voiced concerned about a prophecy they foresaw, the five bishops agreed to gathered at the temple within the silk cradle.

Summary
Narinder is used to the Lamb and their strange quirks. He is used to watching the Lamb do chores, gamble away their money in Knucklebones, fish, and other inane activities. Even being unable to read the Lamb's mind, The One Who Waits is confident that he knows the Lamb.
Until he realizes he doesn't.
In which the Lamb trusts Narinder (for whatever reason), the Crown apparently is a matchmaker, and Narinder enjoys being as contrary as possible, including acknowledging his feelings.

Summary
"My followers were yours, and you've had more before that. You know how to lead, and we're the only two that could do it indefinitely. I've already been benefiting from your guidance up until this point, and I still could."
The flock just keeps growing. I can care for it on a large scale, but it's more feasible to stay on top of things on a more, I guess… relational level if there's more than just one person at the head," they explain with a nod, seeming satisfied with themself. And oddly, it's their forthright manner here that's throwing him off guard, more than anything.
Through the crown, he had listened in on their sermons. They were a talented preacher, sometimes fearsome and sometimes loving, always grandiose. He'd drunk deep of the devotion their fervor inspired, and of their own fidelity to the gospel in their hand, penned carefully in his name. Their own worship.
And now, they spoke to him as if they were haggling with one of the vendors on the outskirts. Like that poorly disguised cannibal who sold them fish.
"So, I think it'd be a logical course of action if we just get married, and lead together," they finish, nodding again.-
Every time the Lamb proposes, ect.

Summary
Something goes wrong. The crown is split during Narinder's defeat, splitting the power between him and the Lamb.
Narinder keeps a portion of his godhood, and the Lamb finds that abilities they had access to before are no longer possible: Healing is cut short. Powers are halved. And there is a very real chance of perma-death, as the ability to resurrect is not possible without full power, and the God of Death is not cooperative.
Afterlife and Purgatory are not options either. Dying means erasure. Gone.Lambert knows Narinder grows stronger by the day, crown or not, and yet keeps him spared as they try to figure out how to complete their own goals. Narinder vows vengeance on the lamb for usurping him. After a few unsuccessful murder attempts, he's in for the long haul. It is only a matter of time before the Lamb's guard is down before he can strike, and The One Who Waits is very patient. When a mystic being demands they save the bishops from purgatory, an alliance is in order.
Except...the lamb's actions and their presence begin to unlock abilities within the God of Death he didn't know he had prior to his imprisonment, among other fickle things, like emotions. The prophecy didn't warn him of that part.

Summary
For a fleeting moment you see the age in his eyes, tender and nostalgic as though he were the old man he once claimed to be, looking back upon misplaced yet beloved photographs of times long past.
G'raha turns his arm to regard the arcane eye painted there. The deep hue is stark against the azure of his body. "I shall wash them off in the morning, but for now I enjoy being able to see my old markings again."
"You seem more upset than anything," you counter cautiously, the unspoken question evident in your voice.
"’Tis difficult to put into words. Memory is not always without mourning, and mourning is not always an act of grief." G'raha looks down into his tea, tracing a crystal finger along the curve of the ceramic mug. The faint scratching sound it makes is nearly deafening. "Tis good to remember how it felt to fly before I clipped my wings."

Summary
Telling the Fenton's about being a half-ghost doesn't go as planned, nothing negative happening but nothing positive either - days of waiting for nothing to happen and finally Danny assumes he's safe, for the first time in a long time.
He wakes up on a GiW operating table, his mother's face behind the observation glass, and remembers how patient his parents could act when they wanted something they had to wait for.
Running away to Gotham, so filled with ecto-energies that he and Ellie would never be found, Danny wonders if his life will ever feel whole again - the gaping Y shaped scar on his chest tells him, in the quiet of the night, that he should stop wondering.
All he has are nightmares now.
(So here Jason is, punching a guy into unconsciousness as he normally does when someone's dumb enough to deal drugs to kids, thinking it's just a normal night in Gotham until he's suddenly accosted by a Lazarus Pit Vampire - is that thing?)
(Jason feels like that's totally a thing, especially considering one just took all the Lazarus water out of him like a benevolent Hamburglar only intent on burglar-ing some Lazarus Pit waters.)
(And he thought Gotham couldn't get weirder.)

Survivors have scars; victims have graves (then what are we, we who have both) by Butterfly_effect

Summary
Danny has been trying, ok ?
He's a student at a good university he entered with with (only slightly modified) good grades and glowing recommendations, he has his own appartment and he even stopped his ghostly excursions !
Clockwork is calling it a vacation. Like a gap year while his (immense) paperwork backlog is being sorted, back in the (his) Infinite Realms.
Except Danny has no intention of going back. Ever.
Too bad Gotham has a startlingly big population of liminals and halfas. And the ghost zone can never leave him alone, can it ?

Summary
Soulmates were not an unknown to Danny Fenton, nor were the consequences of their breaking. When he was fourteen and the portal killed, yet resurrected him at the same time, his soulmark was marred past recognization, and the bond shattered.
At fifteen, his familial bonds with his parents were forever shattered, and Danny fled Amity, clinging to his remaining familial and platonic bonds with Jazz, Tucker, and Sam as he took refuge in the Realms.
At seventeen, he reemerged on Earth in Gotham.
And at nineteen, his soulmark blazed back to life upon the theft of one (1) motorcycle.Series

Summary
Danny's death was something he had no choice but to think about.
Having a portal to the afterlife open on top of you at age 14, both killing you and bringing you back to life was hard to ignore. He died and came back weird, with a pounding headache and an ache in his chest.
After getting caught by his parents and getting cut open the summer before college, Danny flees to Gotham.
No idea of what or who is waiting for him there. Or what will follow him to Gotham.
Jason was 15 and running around as the second Robin. His death was on the same day that a portal in an Amity Park basement opened, killed by being beaten by the Joker and left to die in an explosion. He came back 6 months later, mindless and wrong.
Later, he'd get back his mind, but the pits still swirled in his chest.
Now the Red Hood at 19, Jason feels like something's coming, something dangerous.
The pits shift at the thought.
This can't be good.

Summary
After a cringe-fail villain successfully sacrifices Batman to another dimension that promptly throws him back with a 'no, thank you' note pinned to his clothes, the Robins past and present start up a habit of sacrificing each other to see what happens. They get an increasingly hilarious stream of rejections and one ghostly rabbit that comes home with Damian.
One day, before patrol, that changes. They may have been a little flippant about the harmless human sacrifice ritual.
