    Summary

    Phainon is a man possessed. Eyes wild and unfocused, face stained with tears and ash. He blinks, shock flooding his features, and tries to step back, but Mydei holds the sword firmly.

    Mydei sighs. “Found you….”

    Phainon shakes his head. “No. No, please,” he whispers, voice raw.

    Mydei reaches a hand out, but stops as Phainon flinches back. Cautiously, he says, “Phainon, it’s alright, you need—”

    “Not him.” Phainon lets go of his sword. It slides off of Mydei’s pauldron and falls to the ground with a thump. “Not him too, please,” Phainon begs. “Please.”

    Or, Mydei suffers fiercely in the fight against Nikador, but eventually Strife falls. An Heir must take up the Flame. Mydei’s fear of taking up that mantle, of leading his people down the wrong path, is assuaged by Phainon stepping up to take the Coreflame of Strife. So why can Mydei not sleep? What haunts Phainon’s strength of will, and can Mydei save him from it?

    Or, missing scenes from after the battle with Nikador, and an alternative take on the Trials of Strife in 3.1.

    Summary

    He forced his eye back open and this time caught sight of the figure sitting just feet from him.
    Dick felt his heart skip once and then his whole body melt back into the bed. He hadn’t even realized he had been tense until he wasn’t.
    Jason sat, slouched down in a chair.

    Summary

    “Let's start with something easier,” blue man says. “Can you tell me your name?”

    “Timothy Jatson Drate,” Tim replies. Then he frowns. “I tan’t say it right.”

    Cuh sounds and guh sounds are difficult for Tim. Mommy says he'll get the hang of them if he keeps practicing though.

    “That's okay, Tim,” blue man smiles again. “How old are you?”

    Tim knows this one. He's been working really hard on his numbers. “Four!” He holds up four fingers. “That's this many!”

    ***

    Four-year-old Tim is having a sleepover with the Waynes. He just wishes he knew when his parents were going to call.

    (Meanwhile, Tim's family are trying desperately to avoid letting him know that until yesterday he was seventeen – and that his parents won't call him ever again.)

    Summary

    He can’t stop himself from sobbing as he throws himself into his father’s arms. Large arms wrap themselves around him, pull him close, and Bruce holds onto him like Dick will disappear if he didn’t. He’s shaking and sobbing, and his nails dig into Bruce’s armor, claws at his cape, digs into the back of his neck, desperate for something to tether him to the moment.

    “I knew you’d save me,” he forces out, words jumbling together with his tears and the lingering fear and sharp breaths.

    Or: Dick Grayson was turned into a Talon. But he comes home, eventually.
