Summary
With a frustrated noise, Dick tossed his hands up. “I…I’m not like Bruce. He would give this all up–would give us up–in exchange for his parents back. I can't fault him for that and I never will. But I…” he let out a shaky breath, voice softening, “I wouldn't.”

Summary
Chest deep in the freshly desecrated grave was Nightwing. He was speaking, head bobbing in and out of view as he helped someone climb out of (presumably) a coffin. One striped hand pointed at Robin crouched at the graveside.
And then Dick was passing a young boy to Tim’s outstretched hands.

Summary
Dick tilted his head back, sucking in lungfuls of the stale, humid air as he tread water. His mouth tasted like whatever minerals were leaching from the cave walls. “Y’know, this would be fun if I had my rebreather. I like spelunking.”
“You only have 5 to 7 minutes before the caves are fully submerged, get moving!”

Summary
The footsteps were slower now and circling Tim, like a predator. “Idiots. Does Robin look broken to you? Beaten down? You think he isn’t communicating with them right now? Putting on an act? Look–” the man flicked Tim’s bruised left pinkie, making it throb, “Broken and he's barely making a sound.”

Summary
“Y’know, when most people go on island vacations, it’s meant to be relaxing.”
“Tt. I forgot how much you run your mouth in life or death situations.” Damian shot a look at his leg. “Will you make it?”
Tim ground his teeth through the stabs of pain. “Not much of a choice.”Whumptober Day 8+22

Summary
A memory, seen from his eyes, taken directly from his mind. Cassandra pulled off her mask, suddenly feeling suffocated. What was this place? Would she be next? Would he see when she…
As the screaming stopped, Dick took an audibly shaky breath and lifted his head. There was no attempt to conceal his feelings or avoid her scrutiny. Anger-fear-grief was written plainly across Dick’s face, his white-knuckled fists, and stiff shoulders.
“What the hell is going on?”

Summary
She swallowed hard, hoping she sounded steadier than she felt. “So what now?” The final blow, no doubt. Tim cutting her out of his life completely. One decision made out of fear and hurt and anger was going to define the rest of her life. She was a part of the Robin legacy alright. The legacy that left everyone’s life in ruins.
