    Summary

    The funeral is a week later. The church is sterile and nearly empty. Bruce sits next to Alfred in the front row. His eyes are fixed on his shoes the whole time. His eyes are dull and unfocused. The speakers, for there are so many, talk and talk and talk until he thinks about screaming for them to shut up. He doesn’t care what they have to say! Alfred always squeezes his hand when he feels that very strong thought and he knows he can’t do that to Alfred because he loved his parents too.

    The last one to speak is an old priest, his dad's childhood one, he thinks. He wants to summon enough energy to look up and pay attention but the words about God’s love and kindness curdle the thoughts sour before he even manages it. God is cruel if one or more even exists.

    He thinks to himself that maybe if he were to meet one what he would do. Maybe he would shout at them until his voice was gone. Maybe he would fight them. He thinks he would make them weak though. That makes the most sense to him. If he were to make a god or more mortal then, they would be subject to the misery they created or, at the least, didn’t stop.

    Powerful people only end up with powerful people. The rest are just playthings in their lives. Louis Tomlinson was many things, but he wasn’t anybody’s plaything.

    Summary

    "I am very proud of you," Louis admitted, his eyes displaying his conviction, "you are very brave and ridiculously determined."

    Harry looked at him, as he shook his head, reaching out to his hand, he held it, "Trust me, it is not enough."

    "What makes you say that?"

    "Because if it was, you would have been married to me."

    Or

    Louis shouldn't have burnt his soulmark without telling his soulmate.

    Summary

    The mesmerizing beats of carnival music echoed through the air, mixing with the tantalizing yet revolting scents of fried treats. The air felt crisp, cool but it didn’t sting. There was a pressure on his arm, and when Bruce looked to his side, Dick was there, nuzzling his head into Bruce’s shoulder.
    ...
    The idyllic scene didn't last long.

    Summary

    Damian is a child who should not have the scars he does; Bruce is a father who has plenty of his own scars, but still wishes he could take his son’s, too.

    The silver lining is where they find each other— a broken son and a broken father, putting each other back together.
