    Summary

    The Medea hypothesis: the proposal that multicellular life, viewed as a superorganism, may tend towards self-destruction.

    "Grizzy had never thought that fish could scream.
    A spray of water droplets hit his arm. The sound of tearing flesh meets his ears, followed closely by a shriek that sounds far too close to Puffer’s real voice. It takes every ounce of willpower Grizzy has to not open his eyes and lunge towards it. He’s crushing his own leg under his fingers.
    'Don’t look,' he thinks, over and over. 'Just don’t look. It’ll be over soon.'"

    Puffer gets sick. Puffer is not human. Things go downhill very quickly.

    Summary

    The crypt yawns open in front of him, wide and gaping. A maw into the depths of the earth that threatens to swallow him whole, if he would only let it. Avid stares at it, down the throat to hell, and it stares right back at him, mocking with its gap-toothed smile, leering at him from the ragged hillside.

    Only yesterday he'd bounded into that place with a reckless abandon he can no longer summon, lost laughter bubbling in his chest. A high that had buoyed him along and kept him firmly on the top of the world.

    He sits at the bottom of the world now, shoes scraping through the gravedirt underfoot as he scuffs his way along, firmly grounded and left to rot as others take to the skies on skin-thin wings.

    Summary

    Footsteps pass by his door, pausing to knock. Sometimes it’s Grayson. Sometimes it’s Father. He ignores them all, their queries about wanting signs of life and their pathetic attempts to try and coax him out to spend time with them, and shifts to lie on his side. Curled up on the floor, back pressed to the door, he feels a chill not even the heaviest of blankets can get rid of.

    It is lonely in this manor.

    When Damian came to live with his father, it's nothing like the life he expected it to be. As he struggles to find his place in the family and navigate life outside of the League, help comes in the form of his older brother who's goal is to ensure Damian settles into the life he was meant to live.

    Because for all he was taught, Damian was never taught how to be a child.
