    Summary

    Tim is almost-finally training to be Robin, kind of. (Emphasis on the “almost”). (Emphasis on the “kind of”).

    He’s been sparring with the Hood, Gotham’s newest vigilante, but Hood doesn’t know Tim as Tim, he knows Tim as Jason, but Tim knows that Hood is actually Jason, and honestly, Tim’s just writing the rules up as he goes.

    And the stakes are only getting higher. After tragedy strikes the Drakes, Tim ends up in Bruce’s care just as a new series of gruesome crimes plagues Gotham. More than ever, Bruce is determined to keep Tim out of it.

    Tim does not keep out of it. (And there are consequences to starting fights you don’t know how to win).

     

    Title taken from “To an Athlete Dying Young” by A.E. Housman.

    Summary

    Keith couldn't bear a universe that didn't have Shiro in it. What he got was a universe that had a Shiro that no longer loved him. And maybe if it had been anyone but Keith, that would have mattered.

    Keith, however, had made a promise. "As many times as it takes," he'd said.

    If he could make that promise reach beyond the bounds of death, a little thing like Shiro marrying someone else wasn't going to stand a chance.

    Summary

    He finds a copy of his mother’s book on the shelf in his room. How did he not notice it before?

    He pulls it off the shelf, brings it with him. Throws it onto the table behind where Yoo Joonghyuk is, demands-

     

    4 (cont.):

    Is this-

     

    “Is this what you wanted to know about me?”

    Yoo Joonghyuk’s hands pause from where he is reordering books on their bookshelf in the living room. Slowly, he turns to glance down at the book, then back up to meet Kim Dokja’s eyes. They're as dark as the water rolling against the shore at night, reflecting the light of the lamp the way the waves reflect the moon. “No,” he says in that calm, unwavering tone of his. “It isn't.”

    Summary

    "Your standards appall me." Yoo Jonghyuk tilts Kim Dokja's head up to kiss him. The angle only allows for a soft graze, but it feels good, sickeningly good, to be wrapped up in him like this.

    Summary

    Kim Dokja swallowed his disgust. Then, with the bravery of a man marching towards his own death, he reached towards the pile of tomatoes, for the first time assessing the quality of said produce with the intent of making a purchase...

    The second odd thing was when he started violently convulsing and threw up a bunch of bloody flower petals all over the tomato display.

    Unbelievably, a 40 year old Kim Dokja tried to buy tomatoes at a luxury grocery store.

    Slightly more believably, but still mostly unbelievably, he spontaneously developed Hanahaki disease. Completely independent of the whole "unrequited love" part! ... Right?

    The rest of Kim Dokja's company don't think so, and start a witch hunt to figure out who gave Kim Dokja a disease that puts flowers in his lungs.

    He had always been someone who expressed love this way, hadn’t he? Shown it through his actions – no, through his hurt. The cost of loving was the only evidence of it.
