    Summary

    The difference, the thing that convinces you that you are not dreaming, that it’s not just other’s too-tall expectations and your too-small self living in your head is the anger. The monster is so angry. It is burning things forgetting how to make sound and endless hunger and bitter madness. You don’t think that rage could ever be your own, because it feels older and larger than you’ll ever be.

    That’s alright. It hasn’t learned yet that anger earns you nothing but broken teeth and growing pains growing more painful. You don’t think most people have. It’s one of the only things you know you have right.

    There are four really.

    They go like this; Your name is Monster. You must keep your promises. You will not live a long life. And anger gets you nowhere.

    Summary

    “Bruce,” Dick said, staring into his eyes. They were both piercing and so very far away, as though he saw Dick but also could see something through him. Something far in the distance. “Bruce, let’s go home. Let’s go talk to Alfie. Okay?”

    Bruce broke the eye contact to look down at the grave beneath their feet and Dick’s heart sank.

    There was a moment of silence as Bruce rested a hand in the dirt, almost reverently. Dick felt sick.

    “I can’t, chum.”

    He couldn’t.

    Or, in which Bruce time travels to a time after Jason has died but before he’s crawled out of his grave. In his messed up state from the time travel he ends up guarding Jason’s grave obsessively to wait for his son to come back. This time he’ll protect him. He won’t fail again.

    Meanwhile, his family misunderstands. And worries. Mostly they worry.

    Summary

    “He found himself wondering if anyone would notice before the spell was up. It seemed unlikely; there were often stretches where contact was limited between him and his family. Normally, it was not born from necessity but rather strife. And perhaps strife would bleed from this.

    He hoped not.”

    When a confrontation with a powerful magic user goes awry, Damian is cursed, robbing him of his voice. Or, communicate without a fresh bruise appearing, that is.

    What begins as an inconvenience quickly spirals into something far worse, as he finds himself struggling with the mounting realization: no one has noticed. As his silence deepens, so do the rifts with his family. He’s not helped by the many more sinister theories the people around him assume because of his new temperament.

    One thing is certain: he really, really hates magic.
