Moditimed: Know Time
Fics in which secrets/information come(s) to light, either deliberately, or (somewhat) unwillingly, & the changes that brings.
A mix of events coming to light earlier than in canon, or during/after the fact, thus changing the (longterm) outcome; (occasionally involves brief time travel).Also fics where a particular (canon) line/conversation is a catalyst for communication &/or change.
Mostly short-ish/er, minimal to moderate impact on the long-term timeline (though possibly major impact on relationships)
(Closed, Moderated)

Bookmarker's Notes
A week ago, Maddie had finally come home after months of being away, after months of getting the help she so desperately needed. She regretted many, many things surrounding the time leading up to and after her leaving, but she didn’t regret the leaving itself. She knew it hurt everyone, but it had seemed like the only option at the time, and honestly? Her leaving to get help was one of the better outcomes.

Summary
Jason tries for a laugh as he glances over at Robin, but it comes out sharp and a little choked. “You got another Robin, B? Don’tcha already have me? Why do you need another one?” Glancing down at himself, he adds, “And… Uh, why do I look like this? Did I fall into mutating acid or… or get bitten by a radioactive bat or somethin’?”
When he looks up, Bruce suddenly looks real pale; there’s white creeping up along his cheeks, rising up the sides of his face.
“Shoot,” Jason says nervously. “I— I was just jokin’ about the bats, really. Don’t tell me that’s really what— what happened. Or was it the magic or whatever, is that what made me look like this?”
--
Jason gets mentally de-aged, and that ends up being the least of his issues.

Summary
The last thing Tim expects when he crawls through the window is to have a gun pointed at his face. Maybe he should, considering he’s currently doing the entering part of B&E. But it’s Dick’s safehouse. The third one he’s checked tonight. Tim’s hand freezes around the birdarang when his eyes move to his assailant’s face.
Black hair with a white streak standing out in stark contrast. Blue eyes with hints of swirling green, dark circles underneath them.
It’s... impossible… it’s… Jason. -

Summary
Picking up his receiver in exasperation, Len opened his mouth to greet the caller with the standard 'Homicide, Snart,' but was drowned out by the pitiful, whining voice rushing to speak.
“Oh my God, Joe, I can’t believe I let you and Iris talk me into it! I’m never listening to anything you say ever again for as long as I live, which—God—hopefully isn't much longer! I don’t think I’ve ever been this embarrassed in my entire life! I’m talking worse than that time in eleventh grade when you caught me in the backyard with Carter Cassidy! I'm never going to be able to go to that coffee shop again! God, Joe, I asked him out and he looked horrified! He thought I was only fifteen. Fifteen! I don’t look that young, do I? You know what, don’t answer that. Guys at the precinct call me ‘baby-faced Barry Allen’ behind my back and I’m not totally convinced you didn’t start it…”
Ah. Barry, the remarkable foster son West was always going on about. This should be fun.“I assure you, Barry, I most certainly did not start that nickname,”
“Uhh...you’re not Joe,”
“Correct. I’m his new partner.”
-Partners at the precinct share extensions and Len finds out just how often Joe West's children call from college.

Summary
“Dad said that if anything happens to him, I’ll get to live with you. He wrote it in his wish,” Chris says simply, like he’s making complete, logical sense. “And he signed it and everything.”
“His . . . Wish.” Buck repeats. “That he signed?” He’s racking his brain to think of when Eddie might have brought this up or asked him or even mentioned this, but he’s coming up with absolutely nothing. Not a word has left Eddie’s lips about a will or any future plans, but then it suddenly makes sense how he’d come home from his secret meeting a little more relaxed, and then telling Buck to go have some bonding time with Chris, and –
“Oh my god,” Buck groans, covering his face with his hands. “Your dad wrote me into his will.”
“Will!” Chris shouts, the word finally clicking, but then he quickly pauses. “I like wish better.”
--
Or, the one where Chris spills the beans about the will almost immediately.
