    Summary

    Steve says he’s happy on his globe trotting soul search and therefore so is Danny. End of story. If he repeats it to himself enough times during the day, it’s almost the same as feeling it. So what if he sleepwalks close to jagged cliffs or on balcony railings? So what if he’s missing a limb? Nobody has to know, least of all Steve.

    Danny has it all under control—he’s handling it.

    (Right up until he can’t.)

    Summary

    "The bat symbol on his chest was red," Dick continues, as if Jason didn't speak. "He came out of nowhere and I tried to stop him, but it was dark. He was quick and ruthless, and – he moved exactly like Bruce."

    What happened was this:

    Years ago, a father and a son went to Ethiopia. Only the son came back.

    Or so they thought.

    Summary

    Unlike his talent for envisioning the geometry of battle, Scott has long had a hard time picturing precisely what the undefinable thing known as his self should look like. He can only envision a vague figure in red, a defiant X raised. His self has always been something that he couldn’t help embodying, only realized when someone recognized him and punched him in the face.

     

     

    He vaguely wishes someone would deck him so he can feel normal again

     

    In which Scott receives a haircut from Magneto in a bunker, navigates interpersonal slapstick, and cries.

    Summary

    While trying to take down a drug cartel that deals with memory altering drugs, things go awry, and Batman wakes up with no recollection of the last five years.
    As a result, his family must now race against time to find the antidote, while also having to deal with a Bruce who still thinks Jason is Robin. A Bruce who doesn't recognise most of them. A Bruce far less jaded and cynical than the one they're used to. A Bruce who still cares.

    Summary

    At 25 years old, Yancy Becket dies reaching out, leaving behind a younger brother with his soul torn in half, and an unborn child who will never know his father.

    At 22 years old, Raleigh Becket finds himself newly discharged with a busted arm, a neat little description of PTSD and various other disorders he's probably been diagnosed with on his file, and a two month old baby. He's also well and truly at the end of his rope, his life dented by the impressions of those no longer there.

    Or

    How Raleigh Becket desperately tries to keep his head above water in a roiling sea of sorrow and depression threatening to drown him, and the only thing keeping him afloat is the little boy with Yancy's face who calls him "daddy".
