DP x DC Prompt
Batman grunts a greeting at the boy Selena has introduced as "Danny" as if it's totally normal for a kid to be hanging out on a rooftop with her, kicking his legs out above the edge as if he's not 20 stories up.
Selena shares an equally amused glance with Danny that has Batman scowling harder than his usual as the boy gets up, stretching out from his hunch to reveal a 6 foot 2 build not unlike Jason's.
"Wow, spot on," Danny whistles, grinning at Selena. "I owe you a twenty."
"Darling," Selena purrs, hand finding purchase on his upper bicep. "I never exaggerate."
"Looks like Catwoman's got a new scratching post, B," Nightwing cackles in his comm, which is probably why Batman finds himself gritting out a--
"Little young for you, isn't he?"
The kid--in a hoodie and jeans, seriously, where did Selena find this guy--stares at him incredulously before his mouth stretches into an uncomfortably wide grin, revealing fairly sharp canines. He strides forward.
"What can I say, Mr. The Batman," he says, placing a hand on the man's shoulder. He must be around the same age as Dick. "I've got a thing for powerful women in black."
"See you for dinner tomorrow Lena," he says, hand lifted in farewell as he heads for the edge. He pushes himself over the wall with one hand, dropping over.
Batman clocks Selena's lack of alarm and doesn't flinch. Thirteen seconds later, there's no resounding thud when Danny's body would've met the pavement and she's still smirking at him.
"No metas in Gotham," he growls.
Selena throws her head back and laughs. "If I see any, I'll be sure to call. Now," she kisses his cheek, "I better go. I've got a date tomorrow."

Gotta admit I'm a bit confused by the idea of Jason & Cass meeting "while they were in the League of Assassins" because...when was that?
Cass ran away at age eight, and before that David Cain kept her extremely isolated. Yeah, some other LoA members met her, but it was always under Cain's strict supervision. No one was just wandering on over, and he wasn't bringing her to the group bases. Just his personal ones. Jason is a few months younger than her; he'd still be with Catherine for that entire period. Jason is still about five years out from becoming Robin.
If it's post-resurrection...Jason may or may not have still been considered a LoA member during Under the Red Hood, which took place during Cass's Bludhaven era, so I don't know if them meeting in that time counts or not? I guess it's possible they stumbled into each other before Cass left Gotham while Jason was doing recon, but if they did, it was a non-event.
Cass left Bludhaven to confirm if Lady Shiva was her birth mom or not near the end of that era, coming home to find Bludhaven bombed (therefore right after the climax of UtRD). She did tangle with the LoA on that trip, but Jason was very much in Gotham, and you can't really say Cass was in the LoA then.
So I guess that leaves...the fuzzy period between all of that, and whenever Brothers in Blood takes place? I'm iffy in the timeline, but that's post One Year Later, right? And that timeskip is presumably when Cass underwent the shit that resulted in the Evil Cass arc? I'm really fuzzy on the timeline here. Or I guess any other time Jason dropped off the map before/during the Evil Cass arc, if Brothers is too soon?
Once Cass gets herself back she very firmly cannot be called in any way "in the League of Assassins" anymore, so the premise doesn't work any time after that.

The fact that Ran is canonically a CoAi shipper is something fantastic, I love to imagine a bunch of situations where she tries to get them close or sees romantic moments where there aren't any.

I have circled around this before but Hera’s bonds with Eiffel and later Lovelace are rooted in points of similarity (she and Eiffel are both company property, on the station under duress, and knew from the start they were expendable; she and Lovelace are both not human, created as surveillance tools, and had a hole in their heads) whereas her bond with Minkowski is rooted in shared professional respect in contrast to their earlier distrust of each other’s capabilities. (Which does speak to a point of similarity - they’re both very invested in Doing A Good Job and are insecure about their ability to do so, see “I’m supposed to be in charge even though I never have any idea what to do” vs “I’m not good enough and one day everyone will realize that.” Neither wants to have that conversation though.)
Anyway I imagine these dynamics would continue after the finale - I think Hera would relate most to Lovelace and Doug’s likely trepidation toward returning to Earth due to their uniquely bizarre situations, but Minkowski (the one heading toward the most ‘normal’ life) is the one she trusts to get them through it. Partly because she has to trust her - she’ll have to go offline for at least a while after leaving the Urania - but she’s established that this is the kind of thing she trusts her for.
It’s basically the ‘he asked for no pickles’ meme with the entire crew piled up behind Minkowski except they’re asking for basic rights and their freedom from a sinister megacorporation. No pressure Renée.

You find out Roxas was chosen by the Keyblade like Riku was and then Xion gets hers from him like Sora did from Riku and then both Roxas and Riku stop using the Kingdom Key altogether in favor of new Keyblades. Do you not see the pattern here? They couldn’t make Riku into a proper vessel so they went for Roxas. Couldn’t do that either so they tried for Sora. Then they failed at that so they settled with Xion. You can’t control the person, you go after their Nobody. In Riku’s memory sequence in Days, we even see it go from Roxas->Xion and Riku->Sora. These are not coincidences. They mean something.
