Summary
It didn’t matter if he’d been in the kitchen to help with dinner prep by 4:30 p.m. every day for the past year. It didn’t matter that he’d tried to explain why he wasn’t today. He wasn’t there by 4:30 p.m. today and so, in his mum’s eyes, he’d failed.
It wasn’t even anything bad this time, so Lloyd doesn’t know why he’s reacting like this.

Inflicting my personal brand of familial trauma onto Lloyd, only there’s actually comfort here.Series

Summary
Over the course of a month, the Bats come across a group of heavily armed fruit salad-coloured teenagers with almost Bat-level training. Bruce (nor anyone else in/affiliated with the Family who's in a position to) doesn’t remember training anyone, let alone multiple people, in the last few years.
So they were stuck with four main questions:
1. Who are these people?
2. Why/how do they have (almost) Bat-level training?
3. What are they doing in Gotham?
4. Were they potential enemies?Series

Summary
When Lloyd had finally gotten a proper look at his friend, his mentor, his older brother, a pit sank in his chest. He eyed Kai, and how in the weeks which had gone by, it was hardly Kai at all. The older male was thinner, significantly so. His face was sunken, dark eyebags and soot decorated his skin, and a fresh scar was apparent on his cheek. Faint, but noticeable. Most prominently, Kai was exhausted.
Kai also had to grow up quickly, too quickly; with his parents gone at a young age, forced to handle the blacksmith and care for his sister, and then care for Lloyd as a protector, it was all too quick. Kai deserved to be the youngest once in a while, especially in his current condition. At least, just this once.
Or
When Kai finally arrives back at the monastery after the Merge, injured and exhausted, Lloyd does his best to take care of him. After all, time has changed them both.

Summary
Contrary to popular belief, Kai didn’t deny that what he’d been through had an effect on him. But he’d always been a highly reactive person, anger and fear exploding out in large displays of emotion. His instinct had always been to fight back.
Not freeze.
---------------------------------------------------
Or: During the battle against the tentacled beasts in the Cloud Kingdom, Kai freezes up. Conversations follow.
Post-Monstrosity, takes place during Dragons Rising Season 1.
