Justice League: All Through the Night by Sarah T.
All Through the Night (Bruce/Wally | PG13 | 1,363 words) is about Batman coming to terms with the revelations of the episode where the Justice League met their evil twins from a parallel universe. And my descriptions, for both the story and the episode, do not do them justice. The story is introspective without getting bogged down by inner thoughts. And the characterization of Flash in this is excellent.
Excerpt:
Flash jumped to his feet. "Geez, I was just kidding."
He loomed over him. "And I wasn't. Wally--"
"Come on, lighten up, it's not--Hey!" Flash dropped both pints to the floor with a thud. "You know my name!"
He cursed silently. That was the sort of slip he should never make. Unforgivable. He straightened himself, considered. "I researched your identity some time ago."
"Well, I don't remember giving you permission to pry into my secret identity! I mean, my not secret identity! Well, secret to you guys! --What'd you do that for?"
"Because--" Because when he'd met Flash, he'd simply been unable to accept that anyone could be so sincere and open-hearted. He'd looked at his easy grin and seen a shark baring its teeth. The thought shamed him now. "Security. I needed to know."
