Summary
Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run… but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were here and alive in that corner of time and the world. - Hunter S. Thompson

Summary
It takes the cops a year to take the yellow crime scene tape down from Carcosa. Rust doesn’t know why they waited so long. The place was a legend before the week was out. The news says they’re starting to find cigarette butts inside, whiskey bottles, condoms. It’s the last part that Marty takes almost personally. “Who the fuck would want to do anything in that place?”
“There’s got to be an appeal of stripping down in a place designed to strip you of all skin and pretensions,” Rust says.
Marty gives him The Look. “No, Rust,” he says. “There doesn’t.”

“You gonna stop clucking over my wardrobe and ask the sixty thousand dollar question?”
“How you found me? You’re a private investigator. That ain’t worth sixty thousand dollars.”
“You know what you do?” Marty said. “You just suck all the fun out of my life.”

“Oh, since I spent all day at the station getting grilled about you and your ‘process,’ and then your psycho ass followed me down the road in your piece-of-shit truck, honking the horn like a crazy person, dragging me into your serial killer drama? A year since that?”

“So they invent this holiday in a misguided attempt to access fear in a safe way, by covering it with plastic bats and cotton spiderwebs, dye it orange and dip it in sugar and pretend what they’re feeling is a real emotion and not a piss-poor facsimile of one--”
“I wish there was a razor blade in that apple.”

Summary
“Society was always a collective delusion, Marty, but now it's even less than that. It's just an outdated relic, like the trebuchet or the VCR. We ain't got any more use for it.” Rust digs a cigarette out of the pack and lights it. “Just the two of us, Marty. Lone wolves.”
He mulls this over. “How can we be lone if there's two of us?”
“It's just like you to argue semantics in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.”

Summary
“You never did answer me that one time,” Rust says, checking his gun on his belt before tucking his notebook up under one arm. His cigarette’s down to its last leg and he sucks hard enough on the filter that it squeaks between his lips.
“Bout what?” Marty murmurs, looking down his nose to fumble with the zipper on his windbreaker again.
Rust squints ahead into the forest even though the sun isn’t bright here, pressing his lips into a thin line. “About whether or not you believe in ghosts.”

Summary
Leonard is not enthusiastic about his new roommate. Jim, on the other hand, is ecstatic. Or maybe manic, which is more than slightly disturbing to Leonard. That, along with a little PTSD, concerned friends, late-night confessions and an unusual pet put McCoy and Kirk on the road to recovery in the aftermath of Marcus and Khan.

Summary
As far as Jason knew, Grayson hadn't ventured out of Bludhaven since Bruce's disappearing act six months ago, but if Nightwing's mess kept getting in the Red Hood's way, he was damn well going to deal with it himself. The trick was avoiding getting dragged into Nightwing's gravity. Dick has always had a way of making all of Jason's old wounds new again, and as Jason figures out, Dick is hardly in ideal form either.
