Summary
Wally knew that Roy needed to open up about his issues with Green Arrow, but couldn’t the Teen Titans just sit him down for a nice meal and talk about it? You know, like normal people would? No of course, Dick had to make everything complicated, opting for a high-stakes mission to pry things out of Roy.
What Wally didn’t get was his own involvement in this. He didn’t mind helping his friends out, but his presence here wasn’t necessary. The whole point of this mission was to address a fragile parent-child relationship, something Dick could handle by himself. So why did he ask Wally to come? Was this some elaborate plan to force all three of them to talk?
Sure, Wally might have his share of family issues, but they weren’t worth addressing– especially not when compared to his teammates’ problems. And if Dick wanted to see issues where they weren’t any, well, Wally wasn’t gonna let him.

Summary
Broccoli hair wiped his eyes and took a shaky breath. “Thank you”
Oh. He was being thanked? People didn’t do that much, so it left him fumbling for an answer. It felt… nice to do something right for once.
He broke into a wide grin. “You’re welcome!”
“I’m Izuku Midoriya.” Broc- Izuku said. There was a little spark in his eyes that hadn’t been there before.
“The name's Naruto! And I’m gonna become the best Hero ever- Believe it!”
Izuku smiled, but then looked away with sadness. Augh, did Naruto say something wrong?
“I also, I want—” Izuku paused, then something in his eyes shifted. It was small, but it made a difference somehow. It was a flicker of resolve.
“I want to be a hero too.”
Naruto lit up. “Then let’s become heroes together!”

Summary
Sasuke's soulmate marks start appearing early, fingerpainted bruises appearing and vanishing over the space of a few breaths.
After two years of searching, Fugaku and Mikoto conclude that Sasuke’s soulmate is not an Uchiha.
Meanwhile, Itachi and Shisui have been taking a long hard look at the way the village views the Uchiha, and have come to some conclusions of their own - mainly that the Uchiha need to change if they want to survive, and one way or another they're going to make that happen.

Summary
“Raphael,” she said gently. “I know it’s difficult for you to use the past tense-”
“It’s not difficult, it’s just wrong,” Raph growled. He couldn’t look at her. This was the thing. The thing that made everyone look at him with pity. Like he was defective or broken. Like he was some stupid idiot who couldn’t get with the program.
But it was everyone else who was wrong. Raph was the only one who was living in reality.
“Leo. Isn’t. Dead.”
_________________It's been two years since Leo's disappearance. The city has erected a monument in Bryant Park to honor and mourn New York's bravest young hero.
While Leo's statue sits in the park, Raph sits in therapy. Everyone believes Raph is too traumatized, too wounded to process the loss of his brother.
But there's something Raph can't explain, something only he can feel, something everybody wants him to ignore. It whispers softly somewhere in the deepest corners of his mind: he's still here.
Raph listens.
