Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

Summary
"Did you see?" says Dick, and he lets go of Tim's shoulders to take him by the arm, tugging him toward the kitchen instead of the Batcave. "Alfred made cookies."
"Think he's trying to lure you in," says Tim, with a huff of a laugh. "Like one of those traps they bait for raccoons."
"Raccoons are too smart for that, baby bird," says Dick, blithely, and swipes up one of the bait-cookies anyway, biting into it with an appreciative little hum.
Tim finds somewhere else to look — fixes his gaze on a spot on the far wall, trying hard to ignore the way the kitchen smells of cinnamon and nutmeg and sugar. His stomach twists a little, hopeful, and he tells it firmly that these aren't for him. They're Dick's welcome-home cookies.

Summary
“So, this is why I brought him here,” Welt concludes. “Mr. Sunday wants to join us on the Express. Of course, I can’t make that decision alone.”
“I guess it’s okay,” March says as her turn comes.
That’s as much as she can give. A guess, nothing more. A coin toss. Heads, they all die in eternal stasis. Tails, they gain a companion.

Summary
Collei comes into Tighnari's care mistrustful and in need of help to heal. Every year Tighnari marks her height on the same wooden column in their home, hoping that she can see the progress she achieves and her growth in the most literal sense.
Others take notice and have their own thoughts to convey to the forest ranger as Collei thrives and grows.
