Summary
Bruce looks toward the wound again and Jaz can tell the moment his eye catches on the curve of her bloodied bra, and how her undersuit doesn’t sit flat the way it used to. He looks away like he’s accidentally walked into the girls’ locker room. A gear shifts in Batman's brain and he blinks like he’s glitched and then reset.
“Oh.”
Jazmin’s face is burning and her body has somehow found a way to sweat even more. She feels feverish. She thinks she might actually throw up now.
“Don’t,” she starts, “Don’t say anything. Seriously. Just patch me up and forget about it.”-
Bruce Wayne discovers Jason Todd is now Jazmin. Jazmin remembers how she chose her name, or really, how her name chose her.

Summary
Cain is never distracted. She is precise and calculated– because she knows where she came from, she knows the DNA that runs through the fists she throws. She knows that death is tied to her every movement. She knows she is her mother and father's daughter.
Bruce thinks he sees it then-- what Barbara lectured him on before. Just for a moment– a flicker of a flicker that shoots across her face, and then settles back. A shadow.
Batgirl lives in a shadow. A shadow in the shape of a mark, permanently scarred onto her body–or even deeper as she sees it– her soul.
Bruce lives in a shadow of grief. Cass lives in a shadow of guilt. This is what separates their hands outstretched for the bat.

Summary
“Uncle Hal,” her eyes bear into his, and her lips pout out as she speaks, “I had a bad dream.”
The spirit frowns, in reflection to her own. But there is no room for pain in his temple, so he smiles, in hopes that she will reflect him the same. “There is no danger here,” he assures. “My temple is safe, and so are you”
And though the girl believes this, it doesn’t seem to get to the root of the issue. And though Hal can sense her next words, the weight of dread still weighs heavy.
“My mom used to sleep with me when I had a bad dream…My dad would make me warm milk.”
Hal shifts uncomfortably in his seat. His chest pounds. Of course. Of course, how is a child supposed to deal with any of this without her parents?
[ E lei no au i ko aloha” or “I will wear your love as a wreath,” meaning “I will cherish your love as a beautiful adornment.” ]

Summary
“Dent–”
“Save your breath, Batman,” he grunts. “I’m not in trouble. Though I’m surprised you came.”
Harvey is far from surprised, in truth, this has been their dance for ages. Why would now be any different?
Batman’s face is almost unreadable under the cowl–though Harvey wonders if it's the same even without it on. He can only decipher his reaction through movement, the way he slightly shifts forward, he’s confused. No, he's stubborn.
“Why wouldn’t I?” He asks, as if he’s genuinely wondering, as if there's no world where he wouldn’t come to Harvey’s call.

Summary
“What’s so funny, sir?” Skeets asks.
“I was just thinking about when we first left our time. Back then, you were kind of like my only friend. I mean, I had Dirk and Trixie, but they were going through their own stuff, you know? But I knew you. Sometimes I’d–you’re gonna laugh at me– We’d be walking and I’d wait to hear your footsteps and it was kind of, freaky I guess, when I didn’t hear them.”
“I don’t have legs, sir.”
“Yeah, exactly,” Booster nods, “It was like–I was waiting to have some kind of human connection after everything that happened. You were close, and god knows I needed you– but I was also really lonely. I wonder if Kamandi feels the same.”
or
Kamandi and Booster are thrown back to the past, and are forced to take on the help from a caveman. A meditation on loneliness, catastrophes, and mishaps.

The Guilt Never Really Left, You Know by neuro_psyche

Summary
Red Hood’s modulated voice is bone-chilling. Nearly every sleaze-bag in Crime Alley had become accustomed to the gravely robotic nature of it. The unnatural shifts in his words and the variations in pitch being just ever so slightly off putting. Borderline uncanny, yet everyone who’s heard it knows there’s a human behind that voice. A man who choses to blow a hole through someone’s skull without so much of an afterthought.
Though, no one had ever heard that voice scream.
Not until tonight.
Or, Red Hood is captured, Nightwing saves him and while helping him afterwards, puts the wrong puzzle pieces together and confronts him which does not go quite how he planned.

Summary
On Jason's feet, are no longer the new shiny red trainers Bruce bought him, but his old and frayed shoes instead. They look even more decrepit now that the boy's actually wearing them, and it's a miracle they didn't rip apart when he put them on.
Something in Bruce cracks a little, but he's always been a good actor. He pushes the worry that he's missing something important somewhere else and smiles at the boy, "Got everything you need?"
Jason lets out a barely perceptible sigh of relief, and Bruce only notices it because he was looking for it, evidently glad Bruce doesn't mention the change in footwear, "Yeah! Let's go."
(Bruce really can't stand Jason's shoes.)

Summary
Jason doesn't move from Bruce's side until the man opens his eyes seven hours later. He did it once before, but was fast asleep before anyone could say anything. This time, Jason watches his fingers twitch, then as a grimace stretches across his face.
Finally, dazed and scared, Bruce blinks up at him, “Jay?”
Jason holds onto his hand, and squeezes, “Yeah. I'm here.”
(Bruce returns from the kind-of dead and Jason takes it upon himself to pick up the pieces.)

Summary
“I'm not suicidal,” Bruce says with a roll of his eyes, reaching out to take a biscuit from the plate in front of him. Alfred had specifically sent them with him to give to Clark, but what he doesn't know can't hurt him.
Besides, Clark doesn't even seem to mind, given he's more focused on glaring at Bruce from across the table, “I didn’t say you were. I simply made some observations.”
(The recurrent pattern of coming and going, decline and regrowth, of Bruce Wayne.)
