Summary
“Maybe you don’t know the answer to your own questions just yet, but you could if you tried. Are you scared to try?” It’s not really a question. Elias’s other hand comes up to cup Jon’s face, fingertips running along his jaw and gently trying to tip his face up. Jon is -- distracted, from the question, by the sense that something doesn’t add up. Something about Elias’s hands, the cold trail of his fingers on Jon’s skin--

It's been about a month since the exorcists were "dismissed", and the danger was gone, and it scares Kanda a little, how fast he and everyone else are adjusting to this new lifestyle.

“Breq,” Seivarden began, concerned and angry, “is that allowed?”
She meant, of course, how Anaander Mianaai planned to serve as both seats representing humans in the conclave. -

“Uh.” Lavi clears his throat. “Hey.”
His sofa-stranger jumps, his shoulder bumping the door and making it clatter, and then he’s a wolf. There is a wolf in Lavi’s apartment. Bristling at him.
Well.

[I saw you die, he thinks, and doesn’t realize he’s started to cry until Mama reaches out frantically to smear the wetness away, so haphazardly that her bones catch his eyelashes. I saw you die. Right in front of me. I can never forget what that was like.]
Or:
A kind gesture takes a turn.

Summary
“I always figured a witch’s hut would look more…” Tim wiggles his fingers over the windowsill, adorned with various kitchen herbs and Rae Dunn pottery. “You know. Hovel-y.”
“That’s because it’s an apartment,” Bruce responds. “Don’t touch that.”
Tim doesn’t know how he knows, considering he’s still inspecting the bookshelves and facing the opposite direction. He makes a face, setting the purple mug that proudly proclaims sweater weather in spindly font back down where he found it.

Summary
The look on her face pings something ancient and instinctive in Bruce’s brain. It’s the same electric jolt of fear and protectiveness that his ancestors must have felt seeing a tiger’s eyes fixed on their child’s cradle. He steps in front of Dick.
She lifts her gaze to fix on him instead, hateful.
She raises one hand, fingers curled around the bloodied wounds the glass left in her palm, to point at him. “I see your fate too,” she spits, voice rising above the roar of water and wind and rain and the crashing sea outside. “I know that it will be you that kills him.”
And her hand jerks to point at Dick where he peeks out from behind Bruce’s cape.

Summary
"Hey," Jason says, poking his head in through the door, making sure his body is angled so that there's no way the boy inside will be able to see Bruce.
That's as far as he gets before he falters.
The boy inside the dim-lit cell is tucked as far back into the corner of the cot as he can get, scrawny limbs wrapped around himself like the curled husk of a spider. His teal eyes are locked on Jason, but he doesn't move — not even a flinch.
He's as perfectly frozen as a bird in the brush as a hound sniffs closer.
Jason swallows, his throat abruptly so tight it's hard to breath. He's not sure either of them are.
The boy's eyes flick just a fraction past him, to the open cave beyond. One of them is surrounded by a dark bruise.
Jason steps cautiously into the cell, closing the door behind him, and watches his own eyes dim as his escape route closes.
