Summary
“Dr Carter's… Dr Carter's been shot.”
Those are the words that crackle through County General's radio, but nobody truly believes them until the ambulance screeches to a halt outside the entrance, and Mark tugs open the passenger side door- only for Carter's unconscious body to list out, covered in blood from the neck down. Somebody sobs.
“I drove as fast as I could.” Zadro explains, stumbling over his words as the assembled team (Mark, Carol, Lydia, Malik) struggles to pull Carter onto a backboard. “Tried to put pressure on his neck but the blood just kept coming.”
OR
Carter is shot in S5 E17 instead of the other paramedic.

Summary
It had been months, and yet he could still feel unwanted hands dancing across his skin. Those deceptively soft touches that left him sore and covered in bruises for weeks... he swears sometimes that he was still there, that these past few months had simply been a dissociative illusion.

Summary
“Oh, you know, showed up late last night with a Spiderman issue and then didn’t see the point in sending him all the way back to Queens when it was a school night.”
Tony tries to keep a straight face, but flinches when James bursts out laughing.
“A school night? Christ, Tones, you’re practically his dad! Just admit it.”
Tony’s answering scowl says enough.
This is an argument they’ve had before.

.
.Rhodey always calls Tony on his bullshit, and the man's emotional constipation about his developing relationship with his mentee is no different.

Summary
“—and then I get this ridiculous call from Dick—”
Bruce exhales slowly.
“—saying we have a new brother. Which, by the way, you forgot to mention.”
“Yes,” Bruce admits evenly. “So I did.” He pauses, glancing toward Damian, “Tim. This is Damian.”
Damian steps forward, small and sharp-eyed, assessing Tim like an opponent rather than a brother. His voice is smooth, almost practised. “And this must be your… placeholder son.”
Tim blinks. “Excuse me?”
“I am the blood son,” Damian continues. “The rightful heir to the mantle of Wayne. Now that I’m here, Robin is mine.”
Bruce stares in silent dismay.
Tim glances at him, eyebrows raised, “Wow.”
•·········•·········•
OR: Damian makes his dramatic entrance, and Bruce does his best to keep control, but the rivalry between him and Tim is escalating fast—verging on outright violence. His older sons continually offer commentary on his parenting, and he feels increasingly inadequate as a father. And let's be honest, he's probably right.
