    Summary

    The masculine jaw, the defined lips and a nose that had clearly been broken and righted more than once. Broad shoulders, thick, muscular hands, and the quiet assuredness of a man sizing up opponents far weaker than himself.

    “You, uh,” Sean tried to laugh, but it came out more like a ragged breath. “You work out a lot or something, Mr. Wayne?”

    “Something like that.”

    Summary

    Dick is haunted by the ghost of Grant Wilson.

    Yes, like his actual ghost. No, he’s not lying, why the hell would he lie about something like that, Slade? Slade, come back. Seriously? You’ve met aliens, you’ve literally entered the speed force, but you draw the line at believing in ghosts?

    Summary

    He had to give him credit. With the way he swayed on the spot, listless and blank, Jason was surprised he was upright at all. Blood dripped from his fingers, a shard of glass peeking through kevlar and steel-tipped knuckles.

    Jason stared.

    Batman swayed a little harder. Then, weakly, “bucket.”

    Or:

    It's Bruce's turn to get hurt this time.

    Summary

    People always think Dick fights the way he does because he misses the circus, the roar of the crowd, the spotlight. Roy had always ribbed him about living for attention; Donna had tried to get him in front of the camera; Kori had, with a little more gentleness, mused once that that’s why they worked so well together.

    The spotlight's not what he misses, though.
