    Summary

    Several years into Rozanov’s career, ESPN hires a reporter fluent in Russian.

    Suddenly able to answer questions fluently and with a wide vocabulary, Rozanov’s interviews go viral. Hockey fans around the world get a new look at what they thought about Boston’s #81. This changes not only his public persona, but his whole life.

    Inspired by the look on NBA star Nikola Jokić’s face when he was asked a question in his native Serbian and my own struggles learning a new language.

    Summary

    Bank Robber raises his gun.

    Damian’s chin tucks, his eyes glare, his muscles tense in preparation. Tim knows he’ll take that bullet. He’ll take the bullet, the injury, the pain. He’ll take the scar, the video, the risk. He’ll take it silently. Like he was trained to do, like he always has.

    Except that’s Tim’s little brother.

    And he can’t let him.

    Summary

    When Brown asks him on a late night, What’s Nanda Parbat like? - Damian surrenders his sanity with slight peace.

    “Please,” he huffs, over his ceylon, the sugar wafts rising, “that is not where I am from.”

    “Oh,” Brown mouths, stopping her swivel. She doesn’t fit in the Batchair without it shaping her muscles into pudge. A mugger from patrol called her a donkey both before and after she kicked him. Being Batgirl, it seems, doesn’t work without accepting what is truly ugly.

    who thought that moving a ten year boy from the east to the west would be easy. who thought that. i’m not gonna do anything i just wanna know where you live
