Summary
Deryn extended her arm. “Shall we go?”
“Of course. But where?”
“There’s a wee changing room off to the side. It’s locked up, but I’ve got the only key.” Deryn looked him up and down again. “And bottle of champagne, if you’re not too much a lady for a drink alone with a former sky sailor.”
“I assure you, Mr. Sharp,” Alek said. “I have no concerns about your intentions.”
“That’s good to hear, Mr. Hohenberg. For my intentions are clarity itself.”

Summary
“You could leave now," Judas begs, "There may still be time,” he feels the plea tug on him with unsubtle desperation.
Jesus crosses the room with preternatural grace, "I will not."
"Then you’re crueler than I thought," he snaps, losing whatever feeble thread of composure he was clinging to.

“It’s not up to us to choose if someone live-”
“That’s not an answer.”
He doesn't know. Was shooting Luka just to save one person? Was it really only about the value of a life? All he remembers is the hot white fear when Luka picked up the gun and aimed it at Minhkhoa. The brief hazy cognition that the last words he would ever say to him were a plea, a request.
He’s going to kill me, Bruce.
Take.

Summary
“Rudy, what’s going on? Is everything okay?
“Yes, yeah, I just- I know you’ve been busy with your responsibilities on base. I didn’t want to add more stress to that”
Alejandro smiles in that stupidly endearing way that Rudy never gets tired of.
“I... I don't want you to worry about me. We’ve done this together for over two decades. He smiles softly, “-and I'm not going to fall apart now.”
Rudy steps toward him, “I know. I just-
Or- Rudy hides a secret from Alejandro and it unravels into a bigger mess than he could imagine.

Summary
Alejandro tilts his head, eyes widening, “Yes... yeah, I want to know what’s going on. What happened on the mission?”
“Rudy didn’t make it out of that room,” he replies, face impassive, as if he hadn’t just said something completely absurd.
“What? You’re right here,” Alejandro says carefully, eyebrows drawing together.
Rudy fidgets, and something about it reminds Alejandro of a wild animal, cagey and ready to attack if you get too close. He stares unblinkingly, “I'm not him. He died in that room.”
Alejandro clears his throat, trying to hold off the panic that’s setting in, “Rudy...you aren’t making any sense. The “you're scaring me” goes unsaid.
Or- Rudy is acting strange, claiming he died and came back to life. Meanwhile, Alejandro is desperately trying to find out what's going on.

Summary
“You are not well,” Salvador returns. “You are overflowing with…” he pauses to search for the word and he finds it, “grief. You’re grieving. It has hollowed you out.”
“I have nothing to grieve for.”
“You’re lying, Thomas.”

Summary
Jason Todd is seriously injured during patrol one night, and is forced to stay at the manor to recuperate until his injuries are healed. To pass the time, he makes a list of things he never got to do before he died.
Except there's one small problem: most of them involve Bruce, and Jason doesn't really think Bruce cares all that much about him anymore.This is a story about how wrong he is, but I made it sad anyway.
