Summary
Text from Clark K at 10.45:
I know you're awake, B😡Text from Clark K at 10. 46:
I can hear you chewing😒 Pick up.😠😠The last text makes Bruce pause. He knows Clark can't see him, but he turns to glare in the direction of Metropolis anyway and takes a large bite of his toast. And if he is chewing a little louder than usual, well, no one is here to call him out on it.
Text from Clark K at 10.47:
Real mature, B😡 You know I can't stand that sound!😒Text from Clark K at 10.51:
You need to call Hal. He must be freaking out right now.😱Bruce ignores the text. Just like he has ignored all the others and reaches for the Gotham Gazette's sports section, it seems the Gotham knights lost the game this weekend and that they are considering a trade with the Star City team. Bruce continues to read as the tv drones on in the background at a low volume.
"Morning, B." Jason greets as he enters the kitchen and takes the seat. The grin in his voice is audible, and Bruce almost wines. Jason has most definitely seen the news.
"Good morning, Jason," Bruce responds without looking up from his paper. His phone starts ringing, and Bruce glances at the caller id. It's Clark, again.

Summary
Contrary to popular belief, Bruce was not the mastermind behind the idea.
This honor belongs to Hal and Hal alone.
--
"How long, hypothetical speaking, would it take your kids to realize that you are seeing someone?" Hal asks the first night they end up in bed together. Bruce cracks an eye open, lifts his head, and peers down at Hal, who has made himself comfortable on Bruce's chest. "I mean, they are detectives, and being smart is basically a requirement to be a Bat."
"Hal-" Bruce begins, but Hal cuts him off.
"Like, how long can it take? If they are anything like you, I wouldn't be surprised if one of them has bugged this room and is already listening to us." Hal looks around the room as if he expects one of Bruce's kids to pop out of the dark. Nevermind that they are in Hal's apartment.
"Do not get me wrong, I love anything Spooky," Hal flashes him a grin as if to make sure Bruce gets the joke," but your kids are terrifying."
Bruce drops his head back onto his pillow. "Hal, can we please stop discussing my children."

Summary
When Jango is thrown into the cell he is pissed, bleeding, and ready to kill the next person that gets close to him. He hits the floor hard and by the time he gets up on his knees the cell’s energy shield is back up and the guard has walked away. Jango’s arms are shackled in front of him and his armor is gone, but his feet are free and he is barefoot. The cell is tiny, maybe 1.5 m wide and 2 m long, there is no bed and there is a hole in the floor in one corner for him to piss in, three of the walls are metal, and the one wall of energy shield. All in all, not the worst place he has ever been held, but not the best either.
“Hello there.” A smooth voice says and Jango looks out into the hall, but he can’t see anyone. Jango stays silent and keeps his ears and eyes peeled.
On your left.” The male-sounding voice says again and Jango realizes that the voice comes from the next cell over.Jango considers his options and then huffs. “Hello.”
“Ah, he speaks.” The voice says and Jango can hear the relief. “Are you alright? You didn’t look too good when they carried you in.”

Summary
Constantine takes a step back from the bed and turns to face Superman, Wonder Woman, Hal, and the assorted Bats gathered by Batman's sickbed. His hands are shaking, and Hal has only known Constantine for a short time, but he has never seen the usually unruffled man this tired.
"It's a bad one, alright," Constantine confirms and runs a hand down his face. "The spell is a powerful one, and breaking it is gonna be hard, but I can do it."
"What do you need?" Nightwing asks.
Nightwing, Red Robin, Black Bat, and, for some strange reason that no one had explained to anyone in the League, the crime lord known as Red Hood had barged into the infirmary where a comatose Bruce had been laid down. There had been an argument between Nightwing and Superman that Nightwing had won, and Red Hood had been allowed to stay, but no one was sure why he wanted to be here.
"The spell makes B relive his worst memories over and over again. I need someone to go down there and make him realize it is a trick," Constantine tells him.
"He won't get it on his own?" Red Robin asks, and Constantine shakes his head.

Summary
"Kalevala is a desert planet?" Shmi asks as they drop out of hyperspace, and Kalevala comes fully into view. She sounds surprised, and Jango glances at her. He had taken the pilot seat, and Shmi had once again been assigned as co-pilot, with Arla taking the comm station, but she was walking up to join them.
"More like a toxic wasteland," Arla says and leans on the back of Shmi's chair. "Kalevala never really recovered after the Dral'Han."
Shmi looks back at Arla. "The what?" Her comprehension of Mando'a has improved with impressive speed and staying with Sana, and his clan has only helped, but she was still new to the language.
"The Annihilation," Janog translates, and he turns to smile bitterly at Shmi. "Or as the Republic likes to call it: the Mandalorian Excision."
"The orbital bombardment," Shmi says in a horrified voice. "It destroyed the planet."
--
Jaster and the Haat'ade finally get to Kalevala for the meeting with the Old Clans and The New Mandalorians. There are political scheming, impassions speeches, and partying. So much partying.
Obi-Wan on the other hand is on a mission with Qui-Gon where he makes meets new people, makes new friends and learns new lessons.

Summary
“Marimo,” Sanji greets, his voice raspy from disuse. “I thought you were on watch tonight.”
“I am.” Zoro seems too hesitate for a moment, as if deciding his words carefully. “I heard movement and came down to see what it was.”
Sanji raises an eyebrow, lifting up the blanket that is definitely the one they keep up in the crows nest, the familiar bright red of its wool dulled in the dark. “So this is meant to be a weapon then?”
Or, five nights they talked, and the one night they confessed.

Summary
“So, why the automated message? Couldn’t you have just, I don’t know, sent a quick, ‘Hey, get up here’? It’s not like you haven’t done it before.”
“Oh, believe me, I would’ve if that had even been a friggin’ option. But, uh. Well.” Jack laughs, incredulous and—a little exasperated? “I’m kind of in a bind here, kitten.”
Or: in which trust is a funny thing and goes both ways.
