    Summary

    Teth hasn't claimed to be a good person in a long time, but there are certain lines he's not willing to cross--even on his crusade against the Old Wizard--and now he has discovered his mortal enemies greatest secret. The only question now, is what is he going to do about it?
    Fawcett City is closing ranks, Khandaq is up in arms, the media are losing their minds, the gods themselves are restless, and Captain Marvel isn't saying anything.
    The Justice League is growing increasingly concerned by their enigmatic friend Captain Marvel and the apparent custody battle he is now embroiled in with his nemisis. Superman and Batman take it upon themselves to investigate, and help if they can. Superman because he's always had a soft spot for the Champion of Magic, and Batman because there has never been a case involving a kid that he hasn't taken very personally.
    Billy Batson has been independent for years now, and he's not about to let anyone tell him what to do.

    Summary

    Bruce tensed. It was small, imperceptible enough that most wouldn’t pick it up. Dick saw it coming a mile away. “You’re supposed to be taking down a smuggling ring in Tricorner.”

    “Yeah, that’s exactly where you want me, isn’t it?” Jason's voice was calm, deceptively slow. Then it flipped on a dime, transforming into a cracking scream. “‘Cause if I was there, I wouldn’t have to see you put my brother in the fucking Pit!”

    Pit. The Pit. The Lazarus Pit, noxious and intoxicating and everything Dick had spent years trying to forget, even as Jason showed up on his doorstep, unprompted, near tears, needing someone, anyone, to listen to his butchered, incomplete descriptions on what it was like to live drowning.

    It melts you, he’d said once, wrapped in a blanket Dick didn’t remember owning. Brings you to your bare parts and builds you back up in a new form, again and again, until you forget that you ever used to be anything else. But it’s so cold, at the same time.

    Dick didn’t feel cold or hot or angry or insane. He – didn’t feel anything, despite the heaving cries that choked him even now.


    or, Dick dies. He gets better, but the Pit always has a cost.

    Summary

    “Where is he, Tim?”

    Tim shook his head, avoiding making eye contact with her as he let out a long breath. “I don’t know.”

    “Bullshit. Where. Is. He?”

    “I don’t know. Both Bludhaven and Gotham PD are looking into it. Commissioner Gordon has prioritized the search-”

    “While you sit back in your cushy office and go about life as normal while your brother is missing? We both know that’s not your style, Tim. What were you working on before I came in?”

    “Proposed budget plans and anticipated spendings-”

    “Drop the act, Tim.”

    “I’m sorry, Marinette, but-” his words got cut off as Marinette slammed her hands down on the table.

    “Stop it! That is my husband they kidnapped. I don't care what the force is doing. I want to know what you're doing. What you are actually doing. Your family, clan, however you Bats like to refer to yourselves. Because I refuse to believe you plan to sit there and hope for the best.”

    Tim stared at her, blinking for a moment. “He told you?”

    “No. He didn't,” she snapped. “And that will be a discussion for later. What are you doing to bring my husband back?”
