Summary
Derelict, gruff. Incomplete. Your skin so thick, so inelastic. You eat chocolate begging to not hurt anyone else with this hurt.
"What are you thinking?" they ask. It sounds like anxiety. You know that tone, right after coming out. You know the doubt, the tiny earthquake, the stepping on strings hanging in not-thick-enough air.
"Iʹm thinking that Iʹm glad that just you came along, Tonks," you feel yourself smiling, thinking thatʹs what honesty might feel like, thatʹs how you spell easy, ever so rarely, you do.

it refused. it barred his way into the gates of heaven; it took his hand and led him down below the earth. it beckoned to him from the coffins. it coiled around his ankles and wrists to bind him to his worst memories.
it, naruto supposed, was loneliness.
(in which he tries but cannot save. reminisces but cannot retake. and it boils inside of him.)

Summary
“Billy.” She repeated smartly. “I imagine this is a lot, to suddenly see your father in an hospital bed. It can be quite shocking.”
“You said somethin’ ‘bout an illness.” He interrupted her.
“He was diagnosed with Alzheimer five years ago.” Layla looked confused. “You didn’t know?”
Billy shook his head. “Haven’t talked to him in eight years.” He revealed to her.
Her eyes widened slightly. Looked at Billy’s expression, then at the man lying down on the hospital bed. “I feel like you had a good reason not to.” Layla added. “But at this time even specialized care won’t take him. He’s too far gone his illness and needs a familiar face around to help him settle at the bad times.” She paused, looked at him. “We are as of now discharging him into your care. You are legally obligated to take him, honey.”
He felt fear as an electrical shock from the floor up through his whole body, inside every single one of his bones. “Is he going to recognize me?”
Layla pondered. “Maybe. Maybe not. It varies. He may also recognize you in one minute and remember nothing on the other.” Was her answer. “Alzheimer is a very fickle thing.”
Billy just nodded, turning to her. “Where do I sign?” -

Summary
When in their decades of correspondence now, slow as it has been due to the highly varied nature of sentience within a realm of madness, did it grow to love that laugh so much? Was it when she asked about its builders? When she asked its first moment of true awareness? It does not know what to say, how to convey this to her. It does not know how to express the warmth it feels at their correspondence. It does not know how to express the surge of joy it feels when it causes those radio wave laughs. How can it possibly come close to describing the emotions it feels when it speaks to her in the way that all spacefaring vessels speak? Through simple phrases and images and data packets rife with feelings. It wonders if that could possibly be enough.

Summary
Silence settled over him, his sobs so small and unimportant in the vastness of the universe. People said death was silent – Jason had found it to be loud. The explosion that had taken his life had been loud… Joker’s laughter had been scathing… there was little he remembered from being dead, but he knew it wasn’t quiet.
But maybe grief was.
Or: Alfred Pennyworth dies... and Jason Todd falls apart.

Summary
The first moment they’re able to have a bath, they resolutely do not look at each other. Picking opposite ends of the small stream bed, backs turned to one another. A strange show of both trust and distrust; their backs were exposed, but it was up to their tentative mutual agreement to not partake in the opportunity to stab each other for it.

So Damian’s eyes were amber brown. And his skin soaked up the sun like no other. And his eyes glowed specks of gold among the rays of light. And he swore that sometimes the suns light had just crept up out of nowhere, almost as if it was attracted to him solely.
So Damian’s eyes were brown.
Until they suddenly weren’t.

To Bede, Hop was the sun: something to worship and love from afar, never touch.
Yet Hop was in Bede's bed, and they were both smitten, like the sun was for the moon.
