Summary

Summary
If he knows one thing about the old Bucky, it’s that he would have done anything, anything, to make sure Stevie was safe and happy. If he knows anything about himself now, it’s that he’d do the same. He may not be the same person, but Stevie was his constant. Only difference now is they both have what they had always wanted: each other.

Summary
Bucky kissed her once when he was drunk, on a hot August night in 1940 in the doorway of their apartment. He smelled like cigar smoke from the club he’d dragged her to, which made her weak lungs protest, and tasted like booze, but it was still pretty nice. Didn’t mean that she didn’t pull away, told him she wasn’t one of his dames that he could just screw around. He patted her on the cheek and gave a drunk little half-smile that still managed to look dashing. She wondered how he did it.
“Course you’re not one of the dames. You’re Stevie.” Then Bucky vomited on his own shoes, and that had been the end of that.

Summary
Rand glanced down, looking startled. “Who’s that you’ve got there?”
“My…my daughter,” Mat said, after a slight hesitation. He knew this really was Rand now, and he trusted Rand with his life, but it was hard to trust anyone with hers.
Rand’s eyes widened, and then his whole face went soft. Mat remembered seeing that look on his…old face, every time he met someone’s new baby in Emond’s Field. “She’s beautiful, Mat,” he said, and Mat nodded in agreement. She was, of course, the most beautiful baby who’d ever graced the world. “What are you two doing here?”
Rand’s expression was more serious now. He’d guessed they were in trouble. “It’s a long story,” Mat said. “Can we go somewhere private to talk?”
After the Last Battle, Mat and Rand find their way home.

Summary
He smiles, all teeth, “Come on Replacement, I even got to the door with both legs busted. This should be nothing.”
“You’re right. Jason… Jason wouldn’t have given up. He would fight, I can still—“
The boy wobbles, and Jason has to suppress the mortifying impulse to jump to his aid.
“I can still fight. Batman needs me.”
“That’s a terrible idea,” he muses aloud, and if there’s a hint of real concern somewhere under all the roiling green, well, nobody can prove it.

Summary
The rambling cuts off abruptly, stony silence ringing from the other end of the line, but Jason knows Bruce is listening. Listening and running through several calculations on how someone— and who— could have gotten this number, while simultaneously tracking the call signal.
This is gonna be fucking gold.
Time to sell it.
“Dad,” he sobs, pitching his voice until it breaks, teeth chattering exaggeratedly, “Dad, please, I’m scared, I-“ Jason cuts himself off with a scream and another series of sobs, “Please, I can’t— it’s locked! Please, no, Dad, it’s locked—“
OR
Jason's need for drama successfully derails his plans for vengeance “Red Hood“ style
