    Summary

    The night before his journey was about to begin, Ash found a phone that put him in a group chat with a bunch of people who just so happen to all have the same names as the champions. Surely that won't change his journey too much, right?

    Meanwhile, a few regions away, a young girl named Kate finds a similar phone right before she enrolls in the Pokémon Ranger school of Almia. Being in a group chat with the champions and a boy who gets into more trouble than anyone ever should be fun, at the very least. Until things start popping up out of the shadows, then it's just stressful for everyone else

    Especially Lance. Lance is surrounded by children

    The Statistical Improbability of Belonging by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types  

    28 Apr 2026

    Summary

    Tim Drake knows that crying yields no data. He learned that at six years old in an empty house, illuminated only by the blue light of a computer screen.

    Now, he’s an exhausted student by day and a digital poltergeist by night. He doesn't just "watch" the Wayne family, he optimizes them. He hacks their coffee machines, stabilizes their tactical HUDs, and leaves anonymous medical alerts on the Bat-computer when Bruce’s cortisol levels spike. It’s not stalking if it’s protective, right?

    But when Jason Todd corners him in the library to argue about The Great Gatsby, Tim realizes that maintaining a firewall is a lot harder when the target is sitting across the table. It turns out, you can’t calculate your way out of a hug, and the Waynes are very, very persistent.

    Summary

    So, it didn’t start out like this.

     

    Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-

     

    So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.

     

    It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:

    “ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”

    --

    A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

    The Quiet War by

    Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

    Summary

    “Mother... if I were... In the event that one found oneself... shall we say interested in interacting with someone who was not normally included in our social circles, would that... would one find oneself quite dismissed from the family, do you suppose?”

    The first wizarding war didn't end. It just changed tactics.

    Hidden in bureaucracy, buried in laws, and baked into bloodlines, wizarding society is still divided into those who belong, and those who don't. But Hermione Granger has never backed down from a challenge, and she's never wanted anything more than to belong.

    Not every war is fought with battles and curses. Some are fought with hushed conversations, careful compromises, and a revolution that begins in a library.
