He helps those who society has forgotten. He is the hand that helps you up.

    Summary

    Izuku steps towards the other teen, holding his hand out to shake, “I’m Midoriya Izuku by the way. We haven’t officially met yet, right? I don’t remember seeing you at the Entrance Exam?”

    The blue-haired boy pauses, studies his hand uncertainly before shrugging. “Shirakumo Oboro,” he introduces in return, hand phasing right through Izuku’s when he goes to return the handshake. Shirakumo doesn’t seem surprised by it, but Izuku whips his hand back when the intense chill climbs up his arm.

    or,

    Izuku tries to pretend eveything is okay even though his homelife is crumbling around him, there's an insanely powerful Quirk that's not entirely his coursing through his veins, he suddenly knows his childhood hero, All Might, and to top it all off, he seems to have befriend a pastel blue-haired ghost that has way too much insider knowledge on Izuku's new homeroom teacher, and English teacher. He's really just trying to survive Yuuei...

    Summary

    Robin wasn't moving. He had fallen from above, stumbling over the edge of a roof, and hadn't so much as twitched since.

    Jason could see the bright yellow clearly from where was hiding in an old abandoned building; his current home. He could hear a group of people shouting and thudding footsteps growing closer and closer, meaning he only had seconds to make a decision.

    Walk away and mind his own business, or drag Robin to safety.

    It was hardly a difficult choice.

    Summary

    Timothy Jackson Drake was born on the 19th of July at 4:45 in the morning, a healthy 6.2 pounds, wailed until he was shoved into the arms of the nearest nurse and rocked to sleep. His father had left only a few minutes after the baby was confirmed as a boy to draft out the announcement, leaving Janet to find sleep herself after a long 12 hours of labour. They would stay in the hospital for a day until the paperwork was filled out and a baby carrier had been delivered.

    Timothy saw the blue sky for the first time on a cloudless day, gentle swinging back and forth, as his parents argued in raised voices.

    His birthdays would be planned as a marketable event, until he reached the age of 6 when he was no longer considered ‘cute’, and every moment was recorded to plaster over his parents HR-run social media. After his 6th birthday party and the cameras stopped, the streamers were torn down and the decorations packed into boxes to go into storage. His parents were out of the country by noon and Timothy would realise two days later that they weren’t coming back any time soon.

    Summary

    Tim should be excited, right?

    He had asked for this, spent weeks hoping it would work out. Tim wanted this. Wanted to move in with the Waynes, wanted desperately to not be so alone anymore.

    And yet, for some reason, he didn't feel better. It was as though he'd been set adrift, none of the anchors of his old life left to cling to. No rocks, no routines. And even though everything at Wayne Manor was better, it was so very different.

    Or: When you're autistic, even the best changes can still be overwhelming. The Manor comes with more interaction, with more noise, with more life and Tim doesn't know how to handle it. Things come to a head with the first meltdown Tim's had outside of his carefully constructed hiding place.

    The biggest change of all is that now there are people to catch Tim when he's falling.
