Summary
Bruce felt sick.
There had been rumors for years that the Drakes kept exotic pets, but he had never expected to find a merchild in a bare tank in the center of their ballroom, brazenly on display. The child was the focal point of the gala. Humans crowded around his tank, ooh’ing and ahh’ing, surrounding the kid from all angles.
The child, nauseatingly, did not react at all in the way Bruce would have expected. No, he was perfectly silent instead. Docile. Just swam in circles, over and over, and hovered near the glass when people beckoned him close.
He didn’t even flinch when they tapped the glass.
At one point, a woman twirled her fingers, and the child obediently spun in a slow circle in the water, fins flaring out as he did so.
“What a well-trained little pet,” Mrs. Anderson cooed. “What’s his name?”
“We call him Timothy,” Janet Drake said.

Summary
It was her favorite rooftop.
She thinks he’s a jumper at first. In a city like Gotham where everyone is either a criminal, a victim, or simply too poor to move anywhere else, it’s an occupational hazard that they’ll run into a suicide jumper or two during a normal patrol. Someone else usually handles it, but Cass is on her own tonight.

Summary
“How much time do you have?” Batman asks.
Dick thinks there might be some kind of poetry in being asked that while being chained to a giant clock and slowly pulled into the harbor, but he doesn’t really have it in him to find it.
He will drown soon, but there are hostages who need Batman. So he does what he has to do.
“Enough.”
He lies.

“So you’re…stuck? In that?” Tim quirks an eyebrow at him. “What were they playing at?”
“She was trying to unmask me, I think.” Dick shrugs, unbothered. “The wording wasn’t very precise. Her spell was supposed to make me ‘show my true colors’ and ‘revert to my original form.”
Tim bursts into delighted laughter.
Dick gives him a crooked smirk and salutes with two fingers. “Behold my true colors.”

Summary
Wally knows he can’t go on like this forever. His suit is soaked through with sweat. His hair is drenched and dripping into his eyes. His entire body trembles with fatigue, but he can’t afford to let himself fall. If he loses even a second, it’s all over. He’ll lose the world. He can’t just stop.
And fine, maybe it is insanity. Maybe he’s a fucking crazy person and he’s putting his best friend in the world through endless torment for no reason, but he doesn’t care. Wally will push off the inevitable for as long as he can. He’ll keep going until his body gives out. He’ll gladly lose his mind if that’s what it takes to keep Dick breathing one nanosecond longer.
And he will. It'll be different this time. He can still fix this.
(Wally is trapped in a tragic time loop of his own making)
