Summary
The butterfly leads him on a path that makes him smile, weaving around trees and clambering up rocks the way he did when Sarah was small enough that some of her climbs left her stranded. It’s utterly senseless, the same route Sarah would pick when he wasn’t chiding her to stay on the trails. The butterfly never leaves his sight, like it’s waiting for him to catch up, and he can almost hear Sarah calling “C’mon slowpoke!” through the trees as he follows the little yellow dot. His throat feels tight, but he feels lighter than he has in years, playing this stupid game.
He snorts when the butterfly disappears around a tree. Sarah used to love darting around trees to jump out at him, so he jogs to catch up, and in his stupid whimsy, swings himself around-
And finds himself face to face with a small teenager with a gun.
(alternate meeting in which joel goes to make another suicide attempt and instead finds an injured ellie)

Summary
“983,” the guard calls, clanging a baton on the bars of the cell. He doesn’t bother to look up, very busy tracing out the state of Texas in the lines on the wall. He’s found four of them so far. He’s trying for a fifth. “New buddy.”
He does exhale through his nose at that, slightly amused to find out what new victim they’re offering him this time. He doesn’t have a great reputation with his “buddies,” the fuckers attached by handcuff to their cellmates to make it harder to escape, a standard practice in FEDRA prison. He’s gone through four now, each and every one of them trying to pull a power play by picking a fight.
It hadn’t gone well for any one of them.
“Try not to kill this one too quickly,” the guard says, and there’s a certain amount of anticipatory glee in the man’s voice that sets off a quiet alarm in his head.
He lifts his head, needing to see what makes this new inmate so special.
And looks right at a kid who can’t be older than 14, absolutely swamped by a prison outfit meant for someone about three sizes larger.
A girl, in the middle of a men’s prison.
(an AU in which ellie and joel meet in a fedra prison)

Summary
“He’s dead,” Tim said, blankly.
“Look at me.” Jason ducked his head to catch Tim’s eyes. “Hey, look at me. You didn’t kill him. You just shot him. No big deal, right? You’ve injured lots of people. Just part of the job. Doesn’t matter it was with a gun this time. Doesn’t change anything. I’m the one who killed him. You’re fine.”

“No, they don’t leave me totally alone.” Tim hurriedly explained. “My neighbor Bruce Wayne looks after me.”
Batman stared at him for a long while. “Bruce Wayne.” He parroted slowly.
(A young Tim Drake gets kidnapped by Falcone. When Batman rescues him, Tim tells Batman that Bruce Wayne is his temporary guardian. Oddly enough, Batman isn’t fooled by this perfect cover story.)

Summary
Roy folds his arms, glaring. "All right, what the fuck is going on here? Why have you suddenly decided to fancy me?"
"I haven't suddenly decided, I've always fancied you. Just didn't know until today that you'd be up for it."
Roy reminds himself sternly that he cannot murder their star striker the day before a match. "Just because I'm interested in blokes doesn't mean I'm interested in you."
Jamie looks confused. "It doesn't? But..." He gestures at his face as if it's incontrovertible evidence, then down his body like a closing argument.
Roy cannot murder him. The media would be intolerable.

Summary
Reese is an incubus that Finch summons by mistake.
The wizard isn’t at all what John expected. He’s slight, with a beakish nose, pale eyes behind thick-rimmed glasses, and receding hair that stands up straight like it’s surprised. In his brown three-piece suit, he looks like a teacher at an old-fashioned boys’ school. But it isn’t his nebbishy appearance that throws John—it’s his expression. Most summoners greet him with a leer or a blush; this man looks, well, baffled.
