    Summary

    Star City sparkled beneath them. A few feet away, a violinist was playing something sweet and lilting that Alfred had liked. Jason was about to have triple-Michelin-starred steak with his best friend.

    And if said best friend was still acting a bit strange, in a way that made the pit of Jason’s stomach go hot and confused, well, Jason had plenty of worse nights in his two short lives.

    -

    Roy invites Jason out for the perfect Star City evening. You know, like friends do.

    Summary

    Jason is worried about Dick. There's too much on his brother's shoulders (for all Dick would never admit it), and no one else seems to care. After a helmet modification turned practical joke, Jason decides to make that making it Dick's problem might be the only way to look out for his brother. What he doesn't realize is that Dick is looking back.

    Dick finally lowered his hands, brushing a clump of hair off his face, which slumped into a serious expression. For a moment, the man he’d become in the wake of Bruce’s death took his place, hair brutally murdered in pursuit of matching the look of a dead man, Atlas defeated by the weight of the world. Then he turned and took in Jason completely, from the top of his white-stained head all the way to his boots.

    “Is that… Are those cat ears?”

    Or: 5 times Jason tried to be there for Dick, and 1 time Dick returned the favour.

    Summary

    There was blood on Jason’s neck.

    A thin, rust-colored line just below his jaw. Faint, but stark under the lights. Jason hadn’t wiped it. He didn’t seem to know it was there. The cut was small. Shallow. Already scabbing over. Not even worth a bandage—but enough to lodge sharply in Bruce’s mind like a splinter he couldn’t dig out.

    Because it had been close. Too close to the beating artery in Jason’s throat. Had the cut been any closer, sliced any deeper, there would have been more blood still, gushing out to pool beneath him, enough to choke on, enough to drown in.

    Bruce willed himself to look away.

     

    In which a minor injury brings up some unwanted memories. Bruce isn’t sure which haunts him more—the death or the return.
