    Summary

    Branch figures John Dory would know the best. He was the oldest and possibly – probably – more willing to talk about it. It wasn't something he really considered until he watched Bruce with his children, and it had to make him wonder about his own parents. The ones he's pretty sure he's never met.

    (Branch learns about his family - past and present - amidst bonding and reconnecting while not only trying to help others with their issues but his own as well)

    Summary

    “Well… you look like a skunk.” It was the best he could come up with.

    Jason rocked back on his heels, threw his hands on his hips and laughed.

    “Oh, we're throwing insults around now, bird brain.”

    Summary

    The first time Ben Parker meets Tony Stark, he punches him square in the face.

    Tony bites back a curse and ignores the way his eyes water as he looks back up at the man. Ben’s not angry, which is part of the reason the punch took him by surprise. They’re lucky the door is closed, or Happy would have tackled him to the ground.

    “Did that make you feel better?” Tony asks, the sarcasm in his tone biting, but Ben takes it as a serious question.

    “No.” If Tony didn’t know any better, he’d say the man almost cracks a smile. It’s hard to tell, and Tony’s never met a man he can’t read, but Ben doesn’t look angry (seriously, why doesn’t he look angry?), even though that punch felt angry. “...Maybe a little.”

    ***

    Or, May dies instead of Ben. We’ve seen Ben’s legacy – but what about May’s?

    Losing a mother is something different from losing a father, but either way, it hurts.

    Summary

    A burning pain ignited in Cal’s stomach. He opened his eyes and came face to face with Darth Vader’s mask, the Sith’s red lightsaber buried to the hilt in Cal’s gut. BD-1 was gripping Cal’s trousers with one clawed foot, beeping out a high-pitched, frantic plea.

    Right.

    That’s why Cal wasn’t supposed to chase the rabbit. He knew that.

    ***

    Cal Kestis can move backwards in time (kinda-sorta-not really), and his confrontation with Darth Vader in the Fortress Inquisitorius plays out a lot differently.

    Fixing the timeline while stuck in his 10-year-old body will be quite the task, but Cal is up to it. He has to be.

    (Obi-Wan, Anakin, and the clone troopers have no idea what to make of Kenobi's weird new padawan. At least the kid fits in, though.)
