Summary
After Melbourne, though, his mind would wander, sometimes, to the sharp line of Alex’s jaw or the furrow of his brow or the way sweat clung to his curls; to his voice, accent curling around his words, timbre much deeper than Learner had been expecting from someone like him—but then Learner would remember himself again and refocus on the present.
Jeddah, though. Jeddah was different. Jeddah was tangible.

Summary
It's Jannik, unfortunately for Alex, who stands on the other side of the net for the thirteenth time---or for the first, again. It all bleeds together after a while, the losses, and the hopelessness they fill him with after the fact. Alex thinks it must be hatred that has since made a home deep inside his chest, coiled tight enough to crush his lungs.
But it's Jannik, and he smiles (subtle, almost imperceptible), and Alex wonders if perhaps this is some sort of divine punishment.

or, alternatively: a study on losing.

Summary
There were dates in the margins. And Damian noticed something peculiar.
The drawings stopped around the time he joined the family.
“You draw,” he said one evening, when they were both working late at the cave again.
Tim glanced up, blinking. “What?”
“You used to draw. All the time.”
There was a beat. A flicker of recognition in Tim’s eyes—then a shrug.
“Not really anymore.”
-Or when Tim learns that he is also matter.

Summary
Gotham is never quiet, the holidays are no exception to that fact.
As Tim and Dick begin to settle into the new normal, two crime sprees test the strength of their trust.
A string of robberies that leave them struggling to find answers, as bodies begin to appear around the city. With a concerning connection to an enemy that has Dick worried for Tim's safety.
--
Dick enters the apartment, going straight to the stairwell, pulling out his grapple.
“5th floor, third door to the right.” Tim states shooting his own grapple to the correct floor.
Dick follows, racing down towards the ajar door. Bloody footprints are soaked into the carpet, tapering off before they get to the stairwell. The blood is browning, it’s been there awhile.
Tim arrives at the door first, and slips inside.
“Robin, wait!”

Summary
“You'll be cursed for the rest of your natural human life to serve as a gargoyle for the sins of your bloodline”
Those were the very first words Tim remembered hearing, and that happened on his 3rd birthday. There was fear and adrenaline deep within his blood.
(Let me know if I missed a tag.)

Summary
‘Drake?’
Tim felt like he was choking. His throat was tight. He couldn’t swallow.
‘Damian?’ He managed.
Damian was… here. At Kent Farm. Dressed in the too-big Batman pajamas that Dick had bought him last Christmas as a joke. And- And-
Tim was wearing Kon’s t-shirt and his hair was messy and his lips were swollen and- He wasn’t ready for this- He wasn’t- He couldn’t-
How had he been so stupid?
Or: Tim comes out to Damian and prepares for the entire family to know by morning. It just so happens that Damian can keep a secret. Multiple, actually.
