    Summary

    "Okaeri."

    "Hina," Naruto said anxiously, almost a whisper. The wrinkles on his forehead made him look older than usual. "Hina, I'm sorry I didn't inform you. But this is an emergency, and the boy needs closer supervision. Katasuke's facility is no place to confine a child who has been through so much. He needs normal things—having dinner together, a friend, things like that, so he doesn't get so angry because of loneliness. You know how painful those things were for me when I was a child. Hina, Hina, I can't let that happen to another child I can save." His tone was tense and almost desperate, and for a moment, Hinata felt like a child again, gazing at Naruto alone on the Academy swing.

    "I understand, Naruto-kun," Hinata said, squeezing his hands. "Regardless, we will discuss it later in the evening, hmm?" After the children were asleep. Any husband and wife disputes should be kept within the four walls of their bedroom, Hinata had been taught. "Now, bring the boy inside. Surely, you two can use some tea to calm your minds."

    (Twenty-seven days after their fifteenth wedding anniversary, Hinata’s husband brought home a stray kid with sharp, bony elbows for her to raise.)

    Summary

    Kawaki hears Mrs. Uzumaki step further into the room, the door shutting quietly behind her, and he curls into himself more. Maybe if he squeezes his eyes shut tight enough, if he hugs the pillow hard enough, he can will her away.

    Maybe he can get away from this bugs-under-his-skin feeling.

    Now that the alcohol has worn off, maybe he can find another way to escape the smell of smoke — from the feeling of Amado’s gloves on him.

    —————————————-

    Kawaki gets drunk for the first (and probably last) time, and some memories resurface. Against his will, he and Naruto have a heart-to-heart.

    Summary

    Jason was having a perfectly fine time laughing at Bruce making a fool of himself on the news coverage of a city councilman's birthday party, until he saw Penguin's mooks, heard gunshots, and the coverage cut back to the studio.

    Or

    Jason possibly has difficulty making reasonable decisions when Bruce is in danger. Wonder where he learned that from?

    Summary

    Jason messes up during a fight and is left on the street, hurt and dying. He accepts that no one is coming to miraculously save the day. Just like last time. But this time he's in Gotham. And this time the Batfam is not going to let history repeat itself.

    AKA: Jason doesn't think he's worth saving anymore, but Dick and Bruce disagree.

    Summary

    Ever since he'd seen the video of a teenager crawling into his dad's lap just to see what his father would do, only for the dad to immediately put down his phone and bring his son in closer, it was all he could think about. Jason had wondered, what would Bruce do? 

    Or

    Jason's doomscrolling leads to an emotional breakthrough.
