Summary
“We welcome you,” the cultist is saying, breathlessly. “To the mortal realm, oh father of Chaos-”
Bernard slowly raises his head, meets the cultist’s gaze, and he stutters to a stop. Tim’s breath catches, because Bernard smiles, manic and benevolent and totally devoid of humanity.
The cultist, shaking with excitement or awe, bows his head. Bernard floats down, and reaches to delicately touch the side of the mask, cupping his face.
“Stupid animal,” he says, kindly, “Why would I thank you for this?”
The cultist starts to raise his head, confused.
It’s not Bernard, says Tim’s brain, even though he already knew that, even though he was putting the pieces together the minute the knife flashed down, even though he shoved the knowledge away because it was unbearable to consider, it’s not Bernard, and it’s only that thought that keeps him from fumbling when vines explode from the cultist’s eyeball.
At the ritual altar, Bernard gets possessed by Dionysus. Nobody liked that.

Summary
Jason Todd left Gotham behind after Bruce made it clear redemption wasn't an option. Jason changed his name to Neal Caffrey, obsessed over art, got arrested, and became a criminal informant for the FBI.
He is okay with this. He's the happiest he's ever been. He's out from under the shadow of his past mistakes and regrets and he's trying to avoid new horrible mistakes and regrets, and he might just be on the right path...
But then a case lands on Peter's desk with the Wayne name on it, and Neal has to decide to stay and risk Batman's wrath, or run away and lose everything he cares about (again).

Summary
“I have time.”
Tim does not, in fact, have time.
But it’s Nightwing who is calling. What’s he going to do—say no? Preposterous. That's a crime in and of itself. Tim would rather swallow nails and kiss his mother goodnight than say no to Dick Grayson. “How can I help you, Nightwing?”
