And here's a link to our discord, if you'd like to join the fun a little early!
It's the last night of Channukah and the last chance for Nancy and Ace to break this curse:
“Bess? Are you ready?” Nancy called out as she let herself into the Historical Society. “We’re supposed to be at Ace’s in ten minutes.”
“In here!” Bess called back. Nancy followed the sound of her voice into the archives. Dozens of books sat in stacks around the table, barricading Bess and her tome. “I found the spell I was working on last week. If I had completed it while Temperance was alive, it would have allowed us to banish her for another seven generations. I think that’s still what the magic is trying to do; a witch leaves a piece of herself in every spell she casts, so my spell is trying to banish the piece of Temperance that she left behind in the curse.”
Writing these 8-part stories for @hanukkahbingo has definitely become a favorite tradition of mine, and while I didn't quite get a full menorah this year, I used 22 of the 38 bingo spaces in this year's story! Can't wait for next year's event!

A/N: I want to give a shout out to my people in the Jewish Pitt Fans Discord for the inspo of the surprise here.
—————
"You sure he'll like it?" You ask Robby as he tries not to stare too long at the photo.
"If he doesn't, I'll beat him up with his own leg for being stupid." Robby says giving the photo back to you.
You try not to blush as you tuck the photo back into your bag. "Thanks, I just keep over thinking it."
"Well stop." Robby takes a bite of his challah French Toast. "Jack loves you. If he didn't he wouldn't be late for shift change 8 nights in a row."
You nod messing with the charm bracelet Jack gifted you last night. "Thanks for getting breakfast with me."
"Well consider it my Hanukkah gift to you and this French toast your gift to me." He says giving you a slight smile.
You laugh at him before digging into your pancakes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You look at the clock shifting from foot to foot. Jack got pulled into a call right as you were getting ready to light the candles for the last night. You were getting worried since he was pacing, showing signs of favoring his good leg already.
You played with the lighter as you watched. "Okay, well Shen, I'll be there in a few hours, so you can brief me then." Jack looks over at you. "John, I have complete faith in you. Yea see you then." He hangs up and walks over to you. "I'm sorry Leah."
You shrug and give him a small smile, "It's your job, besides I've already taken a lot of your time this week."
He wraps his arms around your waist and kisses your head, "You haven't taken anything sweetheart." He rubs your back, his hazel eyes looking over your face. "Let's get the candles lit, yeah?"
You nod and turn back to your Hanukkiah completely full save for the shamash. You pick it up and light it as you start saying the prayers. As you start the second verse, you faintly hear Jack following along.
Once finished, you set the shamash in its holder, working hard not to hit the other candles.
"Ready for gifts?" Jack whispers, one of his hands gliding under your sweater over your stomach.
You bite your lower lip and nod allowing him to pull you to the couch. You settle down and notice two envelopes with your name on them along with a 1 & 2 in the corners. "Nothing fancy tonight?" You ask.
He just gives you his signature smile, "Not tonight."
You nod and grab envelope one. "Sure you want me to start?" You double check.
"Well, I do only have one tonight."
"Right," you say before opening the envelope. You unfold the paper and read the top. "On this date, we complete the conversion process for Jack Alexander Abbot, who has taken then Hebrew name of Yaakov Gavriel ben Avraham Avinu…" You trail off taking in the rest of the words. When you look at Jack, he's just smiling at you. He pulls out the chain with his dog tag and holds it for you to see. Cause right there, dangling in the light is a Star of David with a Chai in the middle.
"Is this what all the extra time with Robby has been?"
He pulls your legs into his lap. "You come from a very stubborn people." He rubs your leg.
You laugh lightly feeling pressure under your eyes. "The included you now"
"I'm aware."
You think for a moment, "Wait, is this why you didn't want me moving in yet?"
"Wanted to surprise you, though that proved difficult."
"No shit." You set the paper down and move closer to him. You run your fingers through his curls. "Did you have to get circumcised?"
He grunts and shifts, "Why do you think we haven't had sex in three months."
You blink at him, "When did you —"
"When you took that girls trip with your sorority. Robby had to take my phone away because of the photos you sent."
You can't help laughing, "I love you."
He smiles, "I love you too."
You lean in and peck his lips. "Should I open the other envelope now?"
"Please do." He says holding your waist as you lean over to grab it.
You open it and find one of those cheesy coupon books. But as you're about to ask him why, you read the top coupon:
Good for One Impregnantion Session
Baby Abbot/Levin Making Coupon
You quickly flip through and notice three more like it. You look at Jack and he's just watching you. You gulp lightly, "You should open your gift." You whisper.
Jack quirks an eyebrow but grabs his gift. Once the wrapping paper is dealt with, he comes face to face with a book. On the front it says, 'For Jack Abbot Only.'
"Look through it." You say playing with the coupons.
He opens it and instantly all the blood rushes to his cock. It's a photo of you, on a bed in one of your bralettes and boy-shorts. It looks like it was taken while your fingers ran between your breasts. As he flips through, each photo turns him on more than the last until he reaches the last one.
It's you on your knees, hands in your hair with white holiday lights strung over your body. He's so captivated with the way the shadows play on your body, he doesn't notice you rip off the first coupon.
You set it in the book crease getting Jack's attention. He looks at the coupon then at you. He carefully closes the book and sets it on the table before pulling you flush to him. You gasp feeling him press against your center.
He smirks and kisses you, sliding his hands under your shirt. You moan and tangle your fingers in his hair as you grind against him. He grunts and pushes your leggings and panties down.
You pull back pouting. "I know baby but I still have work." He explains laying you on the couch.
"Fine." You say undoing his belt and zipper. You whimper as he expertly finds your clit and starts rolling it.
As you work to get his pants and boxers off, Jack focuses on spreading your slick to get you ready for him.
"Jack," You moan as he pushes two fingers into you.
"I know baby, but I still need to stretch you." He leans down and kisses your cheek. "You looked so fucking good in those photos, my sweet Leah."
You whimper as he spreads his fingers apart inside you, making you clutch around them.
"Hmm you ready for me?" He asks pressing his thumb over your clit.
"Yes!" You shout rocking your hips.
He hums and pulls his hand back, before wrapping your legs around his waist. He moves your chin so you lock eyes with him. When he's sure he has your attention, he starts pushing into you. You moan and try not to throw your head back. Jack watches your face, brows furrowing as he bottoms out. He slowly starts rocking his hips groaning.
His doctor said he may feel a bit more sensitive after the curcumsicion but actually feeling it was different.
"Fuck, you feel good." He grunts picking up his pace.
You moan and grip his bicep. "You're never allowed to abstain from sex," You squeal as he hits your g-spot. "Again. Fuck!" You start rocking your hips.
Jack groans nuzzling your neck as you clutch around him. "Deal."
He sucks down on your skin as he slams into you. He smirks as you scream his name. He slams into you again, gasping as your walls pulse around him.
"Hmm, want me to fuck a baby into you?" He asks, rocking his hips.
He knows you gave him the coupon but he wants to hear you say it.
"Yes, yes I want your baby." You pant out trying to reach your climax.
Jack kisses your cheek before slamming into you once more before sending you both over the edge.
You two lay there panting. You press kisses all over his face making him chuckle.
"Fuck if I didn't have to go to work right now." Jack mutters, kissing your forehead.
"You can make it up to me when you get home." You say running your fingers through his hair.
"Deal." He says before carefully pulling out of you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shen and Parker can tell something's up with Abbot when he walks into the ED. He's smiling and his hair is a mess. Very un-Jack Abbot qualities.
~~~~~~~~
When Jack gets home he walks to the bedroom to find you fast asleep in one of his old Army shirts. He limps over and kneels next to you. He pulls the box from his pocket then pulls the sterling silver band shaped with petals with a blue opal in the middle. He carefully slides it on to your ring finger. He watches you shift slightly, before settling again.
"If you thought I would put a baby in you, without making an honest woman out of you," He whispers stroking your hair back. "You've got another thing coming sweetheart."

With just two nights left of Channukah (and of @hanukkahbingo), Nancy and her friends are stuck trying to break Temperance's curse:
Nancy was exhausted. After she had told her friends about Temperance’s curse the night before, they had been up past midnight, peppering her with questions she could barely answer. Nick had been calm and determined, taking notes on all the ideas they came up with and on the little research Nancy had been able to do. George had been angry, cursing Temperance’s memory more than once as Nancy explained the details of the month she had lived in a blink on the night of the tsunami. Bess had been determined, listening carefully to Nancy’s story and dissecting every other sentence, as if Nancy hadn’t already relived every moment of that wonderful and horrible month.
Ace had been quiet, taking it all in, his expression pained as she described his death, her nightmares, the fear that now lived in the back of her mind. His only words had attempted to comfort her, his empathy shining through despite the circumstances he now knew kept them apart.
By the time she got home and fell into bed, still wearing her clothes from the day before, Nancy was no closer to answers.

Other than this is my first Dick Grayson story and I've never read his comics and all my information comes from other things I've read on here and the two portrayals of him in the 90s and early 2000s on tv/movies. Also I wrote this reader as being Roma, so take with that what you will.

"Nope, not here." Dick mutters moving to the next box.
"Master Grayson, perhaps if you told me what you were looking for I could assist you." Alfred says setting down a tray of snacks.
Dick huffs and turns. "My girlfriend, Lyra, her apartment flooded yesterday and she celebrates Hanukkah." He takes a breath, "And I wanted to decorate my apartment for her." He finishes.
"And you believe there's a box here that can help you with your plan?"
"I remember seeing it when I was a kid." Dick explains.
Alfred nods and as he goes to say something, Dick's phone goes off. He pulls it out, "Shit, I have to get to work." He looks at all the boxes he still had to look through.
"I'll see if I can find it for you sir." Alfred suggests.
Dick goes to argue but his phone beeps again, a reminder if he wants to get off in time, he needed to leave now. "Fine." He huffs walking to the door. "Thank you Alfred." He tosses over his shoulder as he texts his partner he was on his way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Of course, Alfred found the box just as Tim and Stephanie walk in.
"Wait, he's doing this for a girlfriend?" Steph asks.
"That he has never mentioned." Tim adds on.
"He has mentioned seeing someone." Alfred says realizing there's more than one box of Hanukkah items. "Might you both assist me with getting these boxes to the main floor?"
Of course, they help him. And of course, Bruce notices the boxes.
"Why are these out of storage?" He says tampering down the emotion seeing his mother's Hanukkiah brings up.
"Apparently Dick needs them for his new girlfriend." Time says setting another box down.
"He said her apartment flooded and that he requires them for his apartment." Alfred fills in.
Bruce looks over the boxes. All ten of them. There's no way Richard's Bludhaven apartment will hold it all.
"Change of plans." Bruce says looking at the three standing with him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What the fuck…" Dick mutters as he pulls up to your art studio. When he left the Manor this morning he was not expecting to take you back there.
"Hey handsome." You smile at him as you climb into his car.
"Hey baby," He leans over and kisses your cheek. "So uh there's a slight change in plans."
You look at him and raise an eyebrow, "How slight?"
He clears his throat, "Wayne Manor, slight."
"What?" You yell.
~~~~~~~~~~
The whole drive over, you try to braid your hair but the curls refuse to obey your desire. "This wouldn't be happening if you just let us finish celebrating at my studio." You huff giving up on your hair. Dick watches from the corner of his eye to watch you put your bangle stack on. A few have charms on them. He always found them distracting. "Richard," You say as the car behind you honks their horn.
"Right, right." He faces forward again, driving.
"They distract you that much, huh?" You smirk at him.
He takes your hand and kisses the back. "You alone can distract me."
You hum, "Such a charmer." You mutter looking in the passenger mirror. "Do you have one of my hair scarves?"
"Probably in the back."
"Cool," You unbuckle and lean over the center console to dig around.
Dick holds your thigh to keep you from moving around too much. "Early grave," He mumbles as you move back to your seat.
"Love you too Dickie." He glares at you playfully as you tie the white and blue scarf over your hair. "How do I look?"
Dick looks at you as he pulls up to the gates of Wayne Manor. He can't help but smile as he takes in your light brown eyes and how the rose gold hoops you wear makes them shine even more. Or how the pale rose tunic your wearing almost pops more because of your amber skin tone.
"Perfect." He whispers before pulling into the garage.
You smile and kiss his cheek. "Ready for this?"
"No, but there's no other option."
You run your fingers through his hair. "They're your family, Dick. I'm sure no matter how embarrassing they are, its all because they care."
He hums leaning into your hand, "Just don't break up with me because of it." He looks at you, blue eyes wide.
"If your 'night patrols' couldn't scare me away, I doubt your family will." You say climbing out of his car.
"Let's hope so," He mutters climbing out and walking over to you.
~~~~~~~~~
The look on your face at seeing the sitting area decked out in blue and silver decorations almost makes up for the surprise of it being at the Man in the first place, almost.
When he sees all the gifts you were able to save everywhere is the almost.
"How did you get into my apartment?" He asks glaring at Jason.
"Don't glare at me. Your apartment should be more secure." Jason says with a shrug.
"Besides we all figured you would use them as an excuse to ignore Father." Damian adds from where he's reading.
Dick pinches the bridge of his nose. "Where is Bruce anyway?"
"Father said he would join us later."
Dick nods and when he searches for you, he notices you aren't in the room anymore.
Where did she go?! Dick things before going to find you.
~~~
Your mother always said you were too curious for your own good. When you went to explore, you never expect to find Bruce Wayne looking through a photo album with tears running down his face. You also have never disliked the jangling sound your bangles make.
You go to walk out but stop when his eyes lock with yours.
"You must be Lyra." He says closing the book and standing.
"I am." You slide your hands into your pockets. "I'm sorry for intruding."
Bruce waves you off, something you didn't expect with how dick described him. "It's fine, I wanted to speak with you privately anyway."
"Uh, okay." You feel a sweat start at the back of your neck.
"How long have you and Richard been together?"
"Almost a year."
Bruce nods, "What's your occupation?"
"I'm an artist. I met Dick at a charity auction I was selling at." You answer smoothly.
Bruce remembers that. He was supposed to go but asked Dick at the last minute to cover for him. "So you're the reason I ended up with a new piece of the Gotham skyline."
You can't help but smile at the thought of one of your paintings here. "So, that's where he put it."
"Said it was too big for his place."
You nod at that, "Thank you by the way, for the set up." You nod back towards the sitting area. "You didn't have to do all that."
Bruce looks you over, taking in every detail. "It's what family does. Richard came looking for the decorations." Bruce walks over to you, "If you're important to him, you're important to this family, Lyra."
You nod and follow as Bruce leads you out. When Dick sees you part of him panics at the sight of Bruce walking with you. You notice how stiff he is and pick up your pace before wrapping your arms around his neck.
"It's fine." You whisper, finally feeling his arms around your waist.
He nods and kisses your cheek.
"We should get back to do candles." Bruce suggests.
You stop back and continue to the sitting room, Dick's arm around your waist the whole time.
~~~~~~~~
Once the candles are lit, you quickly grab the tube that's gift wrapped and hand it to Dick. "This is the only gift I really cared about surviving."
Dick raises an eyebrow and starts opening it. When he pulls the lid off, he can tell it's rolled up canvas, like the type you paint on. "Is this why you wouldn't let me into your studio?" He asks watching you sit next to him.
"Yes."
"Studio?" Steph asks bitting into another latke.
"Yea, Lyra's an artist." Dick says pulling the canvases out, realizing it's two separate ones. "Pretty sought after to." He smirks seeing you blush. "It's actually…" He stops short seeing the piece on the first canvas. It's a rendering of the old 'Flying Graysons' posters that used to be everywhere the circus went. He looks at you to find a nervous smile on your face.
"I couldn't actually afford a mint condition one." You explain.
He leans over and kisses your cheek, "I love it."
You smile lightly.
"What's the other one?" Tim asks.
Dick carefully sets the first aside and is once against studded by you.
On the second canvas is cut into different panels. Each one a sketch of his siblings. "How did-"
"Your phone and before you ask, I did it because family is important." You shrug. "Even when they aren't your blood."
You moved aside as all of Dick's siblings gathered to look at the piece you had done. But Dick's sights stayed on you because there wasn't a center in the piece. Just all the divides connecting. His panel sketch of him looking at peace. Not smug or charming or cocky. Just being exactly what you saw.
Dick Grayson. Big brother to the weirdest family ever.
And when you smile at him, he knows you would be more than happy to be his support when the titles felt like too much.
I'm gonna marry her some day, he things as his siblings praise you and pass the canvas around.
Dick Grayson was ready to spend Hanukkah with you for the rest of his life.
I had a few friends over for dinner tonight, so my @hanukkahbingo chapter is getting posted a bit late, but it's here, and Ace is suspicious:
“And she hasn’t said anything about last night?” Ace whispered as he and Bess cleared the table. He had been relieved when Nancy still showed up at his and Nick’s door that evening, but she had barely looked at him all night. Her eyes had lingered on his barometer instead, which had somehow cracked the previous night while they were gone.
“Not a word,” Bess confirmed. He glanced over his shoulder, hoping to catch her eye, but she was focused on the candles as she pressed them into the menorah. Behind her, Nick and George spoke in hushed tones, the arguments they had engaged in throughout the week apparently forgotten.

You watch Mr. Dibbles munch on a strawberry before your eyes move towards the clock. It was half past ten and you still hadn't lit the Hanukkiah, having decided to wait for Pietro to get home.
"Fuck it," You whisper getting up and walking over to the Menorah. You grab the matches and start lighting six candles for the night. Just as you set the shamash back in it's hold, you feel a breeze at your back. "What was it this time?"
"You didn't wait for me, pretty girl?"
You turn to him, "I did wait for you. We light candles at sundown, Pietro. I told you."
He shoves his hands into the pocket of his jacket, foot tapping away. "I told you I wasn't good at this holiday thing."
At the word 'thing' you feel your eye twitch. "Why do I even try." You grab the bag of gifts you got him and set it in front of him. "Enjoy opening your gifts, I'm going to bed." You carefully pick up the turtle, "And I'm taking Mr. Dibbles with me."
Pietro watches as you walk to the bedroom and flinches when the door slams.
He looks back at the menorah as the flames flicker. He knows deep down he should go talk with you but instead he sits on the floor and starts opening the gifts you got him.
As he opens each gift, he realizes what an ass he's been. When he opens the last one is when it really hits him.
It's a six set photo frame. There's a photo of him and Wanda from when they were kids. Once with him, Wanda, and Lorna. One with him and Tommy in their suits. You even added one with him and Erik. There was one empty space but in the last photo was of you two on your fourth date. Your face is scrunched up as he kisses your cheek.
He turns the frame over to find a note from you.
"All the love we cannot see is captured in the moments in-between."
He gets up and speeds into the bedroom. He finds you curled up in the middle of the bed. He strips down to his boxers before climbing into the bed and pulling you into his chest. "I'm sorry Mia. I should have been here. I just…" How does he explain his family, his fucked up life. "I know I need to try harder with being here."
"This isn't just a holiday thing, Pietro." You look up at him, eyes red rimmed. "This is my family's history, this is your family's history."
He closes his eyes, "I've never had a great relationship with that part of my family."
"So your dad is an ass, big whoop." He looks at you. "You are a grown ass adult, dating a Jewish woman. That comes with celebrating Jewish holidays." He turns away from you but you aren't having it. "I know you care about me baby, but tonight I felt like I wasn't even a priority for you."
Pietro didn't know what to say to that. He knew you were right. He had to stop letting his issues with his father influence his relationship, not just his Jewish side, but with you most of all.
"I still have two days to prove I can change," He says kissing your head.
"You opened all the presents." It wasn't a question.
"I did, yes. But you haven't opened any so I'll just get to enjoy watching you." He smiles at you.
You roll your eyes and nuzzle into his chest. "You're such a dork."
"Yes, but I'm your dork." He nuzzles into your hair and takes a deep breath of your scent. He knew he needed to stop half-assing this relationship.
And he would do anything to prove he was worthy of your. And all the love you carry for him.
