    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

    There are two different versions of Tim’s dad. There is Tim’s dad, and Jack.

     

    Tim’s dad asks him how his day was after school, Tim’s dad ruffles his hair and calls him ‘champ’ His dad lets him pick a movie for family movie night. Tim’s dad shakes his head with a fond smile when Tim plays his music too loud and doesn’t hear when he is called down. Tim’s dad is cool, and laughs a lot.

    Jack is the opposite. Jack sucks.

    Summary

    “Fortunately,” Jack snapped, “he's not your child or your problem.”

    “Unfortunately,” Bruce countered, “I intend to make this my problem.”

     

    (Bruce has known for a while that something should be done about The Situation with Jack and Janet Drake. Things reach a breaking point.)

    Summary

    Time seemed to slow. A series of snapshots, separate and distinct.

    Jason was bringing his own gun to bear. He was fast, and on a stable surface.

    A sound. Not the familiar crack of a rifle.

    Something flying toward him.

     

    Spear gun.

     

    (Part of a series but can easily be read independently.)

    Summary

    “He’s dead,” Tim said, blankly.

    “Look at me.” Jason ducked his head to catch Tim’s eyes. “Hey, look at me. You didn’t kill him. You just shot him. No big deal, right? You’ve injured lots of people. Just part of the job. Doesn’t matter it was with a gun this time. Doesn’t change anything. I’m the one who killed him. You’re fine.”
