    Summary

    The moon glared and my need to kill swelled, but I kept myself frozen, arms around the poor woman who naively married not one but two terrible men. But the Code of Henry would protect her. She would never learn that I was the more abhorrent of the two.

    Summary

    Wirt's soul is caught in the lantern in place of the Beast. In the normal world, Wirt's relationship with his family is improving, and he and Sara have been spending time with each other, but the Unknown is calling him back.

    How long can Wirt play pretend? He won't be able to ignore its pull for long. And what will give out first his body or his mind?

    The Unknown is set off-kilter without its Beast. The residents are relieved not to be in constant terror, but soon enough something will fill the gap. Who can guess if that being will be benevolent or something worse. Wirt has gained the attention of a power who likely does not have his best interests at heart. Wirt will be the new Beast. No matter how he squirms and struggles.

    Summary

    While on an undercover mission deep in the Corporation Rim, Tarik buys steals rescues acquires a ComfortUnit. This is fine—it can hang out while he finishes the mission, he’ll be not-an-asshole to it, and then it can go on its liberated way and never have to see him again. This will definitely not get weird and messy.

    Summary

    There's something off about the new Medical Examiner for the Gotham City Police Department.

    Danny Fenton, now working for the G.C.P.D. is good at his job. Very good. His reports are always done promptly and accurately. Scarily accurate. His "unofficial reports" even more so, listing details the medical examiner shouldn't know. He's an oddity, and oddities in Gotham attract Bats.

    Summary

    When Dexter gets taken to the interrogation room in cuffs, he thinks he is done for. Of course, not everything is that simple, and the very thing he tried escaping comes to bite him right where it hurts the most.

    The memory of that night is still fresh, if not a little muted.

    OR

    The one where Dexter is still profoundly traumatized.

    (A continuation of part 1 but can be read on its own. Summary of part 1 to be found in AN.)
