    Summary

    “What, baby?” He runs his hand along Christopher’s face, feeling the heat beneath his palm. The ends of his hair is wet with sweat; he doesn’t seem to be hurt but he is visibly upset. “What’s wrong?”

    “C’mere.” He reaches up to hook his hand around Eddie’s neck and draw him down, so they’re huddled together face to face. “I overheard somebody talking shit about Buck."

    -

    The day Eddie Diaz socked it to the PTA.

    Summary

    Recovery (noun)

    1. a return to a normal state of health, mind, or strength.

    2. the action or process of regaining possession or control of something stolen or lost.

    Or: in a universe where Jason wasn't killed by the Joker, where Tim's parents die on a plane accident when he's 13 years old, his uncle Eddie steps up to take care of him per his parents request.
    Once Eddie shows his true colors, Tim will have to fight not just only to survive, but to take back what has been stolen from him. It’s a good thing he won’t have to do it alone.

    Summary

    “God, I’m so sorry, Buck.” Eddie sounded as if he were crying, “I- I don’t know why I- God. I’m so sorry.”

    Buck wanted to tell him that it was okay, that he didn’t have anything to apologize for, but he knew Eddie and he knew he wouldn’t believe him. He didn’t often have trouble finding words to say to the other man but they hadn’t spoken much as of late, first because the lawsuit prevented him from reaching out, and then, when Buck was finally back at the station, Eddie hadn’t wanted anything to do with him. For fucks sake, this was the first time Eddie had reached out to Buck since before the lawsuit. Buck took a steadying breath and pressed the ice pack harder against his cheek, letting the pain the pressure brought ground him.

    “I know, Eddie.” He managed to say, “You were just angry and drunk and if you were more clear-headed this wouldn’t have happened. I-” Buck almost started to explain how really, this was Buck’s fault, but he didn’t think that would help Eddie much. So he snapped his mouth shut and tried to gather his muddy thoughts.

    Summary

    Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne was kidnapped from his office one gloomy Wednesday morning by none other than the Red Hood, an action apparently carried out in order to, quote, "thwart an assassination attempt, Timerella, so shut the fuck up before I carry out the hit for them."

    Somehow, this situation and the associated threat to his life, his dignity, and the cortisol levels of Wayne Enterprises' PR team quickly became the least of Tim's concerns. By Wednesday noon the forced bonding exercise with his sort-of-estranged sort-of-brother had evolved into inadvertent dimensional travel.

    And there was something very, very wrong with this Gotham.

    Summary

    It’s the middle of the night and Tim has no idea why he’s outside the Wayne manor. He doesn’t remember the walk from the Drake residence to his neighbor’s, can’t fathom why he’s even here in nothing but a sleep shirt and boxers. He doesn’t recall vomiting, but clearly it happened, because he’s staring at a puddle of his own sick on the ground.

    Dear god, he thought over the buzzing in his skull. I just threw up on Batman’s front steps.

    Hurt and disoriented, Tim finds himself outside the Wayne Manor. Good thing there’s people inside who care about him.

    Summary

    “Jon, help me out here. Do you need help to sit down?”

    Jon’s heart was pounding far too hard in his chest to think over, tears still spilling from his face that he was trying to hide before the only person talking to him like he was still human noticed that he wasn’t. Before he noticed the way his eyes gleamed unnaturally, or that there were marks on his face where eyes were ready to pry through and roll up over his flesh.

    --
    Jon, a week after being promoted to Head Archivist, is suddenly flooded with his memories from two years in the future.

    Summary

    Buck opens his door on the Saturday morning before Father’s Day, fully prepared for the long trek down to the mailroom, but he’s stopped in his tracks by something on the floor. He frowns down at the ground, because there’s a small, potted cactus right in front of his door, and he’s about 95% sure he didn’t leave it there. He groans as he bends down to pick it up, carefully balancing on his crutches while his fingers fumble with the small envelope attached to the cactus.

    Chris says thanks for the help and Happy Father’s Day. He wanted to get this for you because it’s small like him but won’t die since you’re a little slow right now. – Eddie

    Buck blinks back the sudden onslaught of tears that prickle in his eyes, the words swarming his vision before he takes the cactus into the living room and sets it on the middle of the coffee table. His heart flips in his chest once, twice, and by the third flip, he knows for sure what it means.

    Summary

    Buck startles awake to Chris prying his eye open. Chris’s concerned expression swims into his vision as both eyes adjust, squinting at the morning sun streaming in through the window.

    “You’ve been sleeping for fourteen hours,” Chris deadpans. Buck is still half asleep, but he catches the slight waver in his voice, can see his eyebrows furrowed as he watches Buck carefully. “You went to bed at seven last night, and now it’s nine in the morning.”

    “Nine in the morning, huh?” Buck’s own voice resembles more of a croak as he sits up, muscles aching and head still throbbing. It’s all a result of being struck by lightning and in a coma for a few days, he knows, but that doesn’t mean he has to like it.

    But what he does like is the smell of Eddie’s sheets, the pictures of him and Eddie and Chris on Eddie’s bedroom walls. He likes the feeling of Eddie’s arms around him in the middle of the night, making sure that he’s okay and breathing.

    “Christopher.” Eddie’s voice hisses through the crack in the bedroom door. “I told you not to bother him.”

    Or, Buck recovers and doesn't quite realize what he means to others.

    Summary

    And then the truck jolted. There wasn’t enough time to grab onto something – it was all too sudden. The man Buck had saved from the car fell into the water with a shout and then he disappeared. Buck lunged forward in an attempt to grab at him, but he was too slow. Buck was left with his hand outstretched, reaching for the man he knew he would never see again. The ladder truck pitched sideways, smashed from the side by something with enough momentum to tip them into the churning water.

    OR

    Buck follows Christoper into the water during the second surge of the tsunami. He manages to keep Chris safe but gets severly injured in the process. But we know Buck - he will not rest until his "Superman" is safe.

    Summary

    What was it people said? There’s beauty in tragedy?

    Mikey had never really got it. He liked happy endings. He liked stories to end pretty, with a bow on top and a funny end credits blooper reel. He liked bright colors and the chaos of happiness, of living wild and unafraid. He’d always thought tragedy was a cop-out for people who were too scared to dream big, too scared to dig in and really love life.

    But Mikey could kind of see it now, if he squinted just right. Could kind of get it. There really was something beautiful about it all. The rubble and the smudges of smoke across the sky, like smears of charcoal. The fires burning like neon orange highlighter in a world gone gray. The way a last ditch effort could feel like a dance, set to the tripping rhythm of a fear fast heartbeat.

    It was all raw expression, raw emotion. It felt like a soul stripped bare and screaming in rage-denial-determination. Burning as hot as it possibly could so, even if it burned out, it would leave a mark behind.

    Yeah, he thought. He got it now.

    When you knew you’d never see it again, even a world burning to the ground could be beautiful.

    Eddie pauses. “What’s wrong? Was the bakery closed already?”

    Buck’s left thigh seizes. He laughs to disguise the whimper in his voice. He aches. He wants. He wants.

    “No, nothing, man,” Buck huffs. The extra air makes his voice sound stronger than it is. He inhales deeply. “Nothing’s wrong. I have the bread, I’m on my way back, just…”

    “Traffic?”

    Sort of, Buck almost says.

    -OR-

    Buck is in a car accident. He knows he's going to die. He calls Eddie, just to hear his voice again.
