He was bad person: he had to be. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to struggle for air with every trepid breath. If he wasn't, then he wouldn't have only a few days to live.

Summary
'Trent knew he should cut Jude some slack. As much as the guy wore his heart on his sleeve on the field, he was never one to be unprofessional when it came to the media. Still, he could understand Southgate’s idea to shield Jude from the first encounter with the outside world after “The Incident”. This isn’t the common media day that he has seen so far.
It wasn’t just his country, that was coming for blood this time. It was the whole world.'
or
Jude and Trent find each other at the Euros, and the truth gets leaked right before the final. -

Summary
No bird seemed to soar nor glide at this hour. He was alone, alone with the wind and alone with his thoughts. Thoughts he’ll have to sift through at some point, and for that he’d prefer to sit.
For now, he'll prefer to fly.

Or, my interpretation of what happened after Durin's awakening aka him establishing different relationships and dealing life.

Summary
Finally, when she’d washed herself, Caitlyn simply stood there, letting the water drum into her back. She loosed a breath, closing her eyes and tipping her head back. She was struck by the sadness of such a small comfort-- the warm embrace of an inanimate thing that held no care for her.
But still, in it, she could find a mother’s hold.

Summary
They always knew that their lives would be short and would end gruesomely. They all ignored the question, 'who will be the last one?'
Well, Damian drew the short stick it seems. It was him, Jason, and Cass for a while. Then him and Jason. Then just him. The youngest brother, baby bat, Robin. He would say he went out honorably, fighting to his last breath against a foe he couldn't even remember anymore, and ready to see his family again. But he died alone in a dirty Gotham alleyway, and was met not with his family, but with a whole new world.
Damian Al-Ghul Wayne was the last one of the family alive. His life as Todoroki Shouto was just beginning. Gods, why did he have to be the youngest brother again?

Summary
Here, you have two hands and they are vanishing, retreating yet again into your sleeves, hiding behind a lie. Here, the mundanity of everyday life is ripped away from your vanishing hands when a pink menace crash-lands into it, bringing the promise of more chaos to follow. And, with the autonomy of a dying man, you accept.
