• Helena genuinely doesn't care about Khoa's Face Thing. If his mask slips, she doesn't comment on it. He's honestly a little miffed at first that she *doesn't* appreciate the dramatic mystique of it all but eventually he decides it's kinda nice not having to worry about it.

• There are no feelings involved. Or well, there *are*, but they're not romantic love feelings and never will be. There's mutual respect, there's camaraderie, but this isn't a love story and they're both okay with that.

• Post-mission stress relief sex. So much of post-mission stress relief sex. It's fun, it frequently involves showers, it's no strings attached and then one string attached but the string is friendship.

• Helena tutoring Khoa's kids, especially when they're traveling the world doing crime fighting and can't regularly make it to school. Helena getting a best teacher mug from Bao and putting it in a place of honor. Bao crashing at Helena's place even when Khoa and Helena aren't seeing each other regularly. Bao and Tim developing a cousins-type relationship because sometimes Bao is there when Tim comes over to see his sister.

• Bruce does not know they're a thing until Barbara tells him. He may or may not be having a crisis about it. He grits out "I'm happy for you" to Helena one day out of the blue and she doesn't know what he's talking about.

• Ghosthunt have weekly bitching sessions about what Bruce has done lately. Bruce gets a new bat suit with more muscle definition and Khoa takes up an entire session analyzing it (Helena barely noticed the new suit).

• Khoa starts showing up on Birds of Prey missions to assist. The vibes are very "cat leaving presents." Dinah thinks it's hilarious. This somehow leads to a DinahShiva and Ghosthunt "double date" mission that gives Barbara multiple aneurysms.

• HelReneeKhoa anyone? It doesn't even have to be a poly ship I just want the three of them on a team up. I think it would be fun.

• Helena goes along on Batman Inc missions sometimes. Bruce does not approve. Khoa swears he's only inviting her to piss Bruce off (false). Also, Bilal Alsselah is there because he's the best.
