Summary
“Has Robin always been this, uh…” There’s a pause that grows heavier the longer it lingers. “Stoic?”
Superboy sighs. “I dunno. Maybe? I only ever teamed up with him like, twice before the whole ‘Kidworld’ thing, but that was before Superman came back, so there’s a pretty big gap in between.”
“I could be wrong, but…” Bart sounds uncharacteristically hesitant, like each word is being slowly pulled out of him. “I think something might have happened to him. Something bad.”
(Five rooftop encounters between the third Robin and a Kryptonian, and one that happens deep underground.)

Summary
"Hurry," says Impa, ancient and anxious.
"Hurry," says the ghost of a woman you've mostly forgotten.
The Master Sword burns in your hands as you pull, knees trembling and sweat slick between your shoulder blades.
(People keep telling you who you are, the hero you're destined to be. Eventually, you're going to prove them wrong.)

Summary
The bond company sees the SecUnit’s sentience as a selling point, not an ethical quandary. Dr. Mensah believes that it is a person before she ever lays eyes on it. Meeting that person and folding them into their lives requires a lot of hard discussions and complicated preparations. Only some of this was covered in the rental documents.

Summary
Episode 224 of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon features a controversial B-plot and a metaphorically complicated group sex scene, so SecUnit is a little less distracted while Dr. Arada and Prof. Bharadwaj conduct their crater survey.
Later, Dr. Rhatti will call some of this planet’s fauna monsters, noting how one specimen quote “chewed SecUnit completely in half.”

Summary
Crowley drifts through the cottage, idly gathering stray cups and wine glasses with the intent to wash them only to abandon the task halfway through. Two months ago, the sight of their kitchen in such a state would make him want to scream. It makes him want to scream now, of course, but that’s hardly the kitchen’s fault, is it? Not when literally everything makes him want to bury his claws deep into his own face and scream until he can’t scream anymore.
(It's some number of days after they quit counting the days in quarantine. There's a flaming sword of thorns where Crowley's spine should be.)

Summary
It had been months, and yet he could still feel unwanted hands dancing across his skin. Those deceptively soft touches that left him sore and covered in bruises for weeks... he swears sometimes that he was still there, that these past few months had simply been a dissociative illusion.

Summary
“If you’re so desperate to fight side by side,” the magic user sneers, his voice sharp as broken glass, “then let’s see how well you survive when you cannot be apart.”
Tim’s stomach drops. His gaze snags on the shifting symbols crawling over the magic user’s arms, glowing a sickly, poisonous red. He thrashes, fury sparking even as the world starts to blur. Because if anyone was going to chain Damian down, it sure as hell wasn’t going to be this freak. Only he gets to put up with the brat. Only he gets to mess with him.
The magic circles flare. And before everything goes black, Tim has one final thought:
He really, really fucking hates magic.
Or, The Bat Family are both forced into a spell in which they cannot leave each other’s side. It goes swimmingly, as you can imagine.

Summary
He pulled back, looking at Kon’s chest. "Kon?"
"Yeah, Tim?" Kon looked down, his expression pure and loving.
"Your heart… it sounds… weird."
Kon laughed, a light, airy sound. "That’s just because I’m crazy about you, Rob. It’s doing a happy dance."

Summary
It's still the same primitive idea; it's still a countdown for when he is of legal age. It's still a bunch of numbers going down by days, hours, minutes, seconds.
It goes from 30 days, 1 hour, 8 minutes, 50 seconds. It doesn't stop, the screen ticks down, a trainwreck he can't help but watch.
He blinks.
There are 29 days left.
Tim’s heart feels caved in.
