Summary
Bruce’s face goes blank in that carefully practiced way of his. His voice is equally masked. “Tim decided to release you on two conditions. One, you don’t kill.”
The silence stretches. It’s too light of a punishment. Too good to be true. Jason knows that, and yet his trembling lips still shape the words.
“And two?”
Bruce’s gaze falls to the crimson helmet at his feet. “If you encounter any of us on patrol, you will wear this. You will not remove it under any circumstance.” He takes a deep breath. “In his time on bed rest, Tim has made some modifications to protect both us and you. Should you lose control over the Pit and attack, it will act as a backup plan.”
The helmet gleams beneath the fluorescents. Jason’s throat spasms, bringing the sickening taste of bile. Any hint of green dissolves with it. “What—” His voice cracks. With the fast-rising terror in his throat, the most he can manage is a whisper. “What does it do?”
“It will sedate you.”

Summary
“Bullshit. That’s the dumbest thing you could do.”
“And why would that be?”
Too many responses to count flashed through Tommy’s mind. This man was going to kill him, there was no denying that. No denying that Tommy had been stupid. That mantra had gotten him through the night, sure, but it wasn’t true, and now he was going to die.
In the forest, he didn't know what was coming to kill him. Now, though, he knew it would be this man, with his soft cloak and softer eyes, Tommy wasn’t so afraid.
Might as well encourage him to make it quick.
“Because I know where you live, you rebel fuck,” he spat. “I know exactly where we are.”

Summary
“I… I know it works,” he mumbles. “Divination. Your— your fancy witch shit. I know it’s magic and it doesn’t make sense to everyone, but… I don’t get it.”
Phil waits in soft silence as Tommy prods holes into the earth with his staff, mouth opening and closing as he debates what to say. I don’t get it. I just can’t believe that they work. Not because they’re just cards, but… because I can’t imagine being safe.
Not for long.

Summary
Tommy can’t squeeze out any final words. Maybe the Blood God will say them for him, the verdict before his execution. Make it quick, is what Tommy decides he’d say, if he had the breath to spare. That’s what he’s supposed to be. Fast. Easy.
It only makes sense he’d burn out just as quick.
It’s quiet, though the world is spinning, a hurricane of ruin. Do it. Please. Tommy lets out a hitching gasp. Surely one of his last. Make it—
“Safe.”
Everything comes to a stop.
