I... am going to be on something of a roll for a couple days.
Title: So shall it crucify you
Summary: They were always on opposite sides, after all, when it came down to it. Now the line is just clearer.
Author's Notes: Spoils Teen Titans 46. Title from the sermon on Love from Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet.

This isn't something Gar would have ever expected from Slade. The man he'd gotten to know wasn't anything like gentle, or *good*, but he'd been honorable.
And he'd loved Joey.
Even though Gar's gotten used to fighting Slade, there's a difference between just stopping him and honest-to-God having to *fight* him. It's not really personal when he's fighting Deathstroke.
This isn't Deathstroke. Deathstroke wouldn't bother to do this, wouldn't care enough. It isn't Slade, either. The man Gar had known would care too much.
Slade Wilson is his friend. That isn't going to change, even if Slade Wilson is nowhere Gar can see.
But Gar's still a Titan, and it doesn't matter who he's fighting if the Titans are in trouble.
Titans together, he thinks, and doesn't laugh, because it's true.
