Diverting Attention (The Why Me? Remix)

by Mara

Summary: Lady Shiva came to town and who knows what she did there…

CONTINUITY/SPOILERS: Post-War Games but Pre-Infinite Absurd Crises
NOTES: I’m remixing Petra’s story “Diverting Attention”. I’ve used a couple of pieces of dialogue and description directly from her story.

I couldn’t decide what to do, so I did two remixes. Please read my other
version, The Aftermath Remix, first, for the proper effect.

Honor Thy Father

by Mara

Summary: Little Barbara Gordon lived in a black and white world.

CONTINUITY: This takes place One Year Later.

NOTES: This is for the Fanfic100 challenge #20, Colorless and Psych_30 challenge
#2, Daddy Issues. (The latter challenge being, of course, much too easy in the
DCU. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel to find daddy issues ’round these
parts.)

CONTINUITY: Not on your life, bucko.

NOTES: I love to blame Medie for half my fic, but this time technically it’s
either the fault of her random pairing generator, or Kayim, who (months ago)
posted a list of the pairings she got. No way *I’m* taking the blame.
