    Summary

    Parrot keeps a mental catalog of the contradictions. Wifies used to love the rain; The Director stays inside. Wifies used to patch up Parrot’s wings after a rough fight; The Director is the one who clipped them.

    The cognitive dissonance is driving Parrot to the brink of psychosis. He can't sleep, he can't eat, and he certainly can't trust anyone who claims to be on his side.

    But when a violent nightmare causes him to flee his own base in a fugue state, he ends up at Wemmbu’s coordinates. Wemmbu, who was never part of their inner circle, who owes Parrot nothing, and who is the only person untainted by The Director's shadow. It's not a magical cure, but in the quiet safety of Wemmbu's kitchen, Parrot finally stops running.

    Summary

    Megumi’s checklist for a suitable partner was short:

    ​Leave him alone.
    ​Do not talk to him.

    ​Yuji Itadori, who possesses the upper-body strength of an ox and the social awareness of a golden retriever, fails both criteria within thirty seconds of stepping onto the palace grounds. He was supposed to be delivering grain. Instead, he spends three hours helping Megumi’s escaped hounds dig up the royal rose garden and then offers Megumi half of a squished meat bun as an apology.

    ​Megumi is determined to hate him. It would be a lot easier if Yuji didn't keep showing up under his balcony with shiny rocks, weird bugs, and a smile that makes Megumi's corset feel three sizes too tight.

    Summary

    ​“If I rip it out, will you love me less?”

    “I will love you until there is nothing left of either of us.”

    ​To the Joker, the child is a parasite designed to make him soft, to make him civilized. He spends a frantic, sleepless week trying to poison his own blood supply with cheap toxins, hoping to kill the thing growing behind his navel.

    ​Instead, he only succeeds in rendering himself blind with fever, bleeding from the nose and ears in the dirt of an old subway tunnel. Bruce finds him, of course. Bruce always tracks his Omega.

    What follows is a quiet, claustrophobic nightmare of domesticity: Bruce nursing him back from the brink of self-destruction, pressing cold cloths to his burning forehead, and holding the Joker’s hands away from his stomach with a grip that is part iron handcuff, part desperate prayer.

    Summary

    Dennis Whittaker is, by all accounts, a medical prodigy who looks like he’s permanently one bad day away from crying. Michael Robinavitch is the man tasked with molding him. But how do you train someone who is already running on zero sleep, caffeine, and the sheer force of will required to raise an infant alone? Michael decides the best way to handle his resident is to start treating him like a human being, starting with forcing him to actually eat a meal that isn't a vending machine granola bar.

    Or

    Michael steps in to offer help when Dennis' life as a father begins to take a toll.

    Summary

    “Love? Do the humans use that word?” Tsireya asks, feet dangling over the edge. She glances at Kiri, eyes full of curiosity and wonder.

    Who wouldn't love her?

    Kiri nods. "Do you know what it means?" Tsireya asks, hands moving to gently push the girls bangs out of the way. Kiri blushes at the act.

    "It has the same meaning as, I see you." Simple and basic answer. Perfect for the moment as Kiri was trying not to make it awkward.

    "They say it to their partners, they love that person for all that they are." Her voice filters through the air. Tsireya is staring, big eyes reflecting the stars.

    "Well, I love you Kiri." She has a big smile on her face, innocence running through those eyes of hers and Kiri's heart nearly stops.

    Summary

    He finds himself returning to the site of the loss, staring into the blue void. He dissects every second of the fight, replaying a thousand versions where he moved faster, dove deeper, or took the blow himself. In every version, he dies and Rotxo lives— and in every version, he feels a fleeting sense of peace that he doesn't feel in reality.

    Or

    ​The sea gives and the sea takes. But for Ao'nung, the sea took the only person who truly knew the boy behind the expectations.

    Summary

    He takes a breath; his world starts to slow. He closes his eyes; the thoughts are gone and it's silent. He feels Pandora beneath him, he savors the feeling. He asks Eywa to forgive him for his mistake, to take him far far away from here.

    Summary

    His voice is quiet and shaky, lips quivering. "I see him, everywhere. Bleeding out and I can't run from it, dad. It's always there." He falls into his arms, now surrounded by a comforting warmth, that he so desperately needed.

    Or

    Jake seeing the trauma that Neteyams death has on his son and he's trying his best to be there for him.
