    Summary

    “Well, kid,” John says quietly. “What are we going to do now?” Like he actually doesn’t know the answer. Like he doesn’t care. Like he wants Jim to make the decision for him. Like he wants Jim to shoot him. To kill him. To rip him bloody and gorge on the pain he inflicts in return for brutally shredding Jim’s fragile barely formed life.

    Jim clutches the shotgun with sweaty palms, grimy fingers catching on the hot metal, itching for the trigger.

    “I don’t know,” he coughs the words out around a tight ball in his throat.

    ———

    At the end of the movie, Jim makes a different choice.

    Summary

    What you should have done was this: go back to your own room, and paint ceiling to floor with blood wards, and then spend an hour in your tepid bathtub, dress in your own clothes, and fall asleep in your own bed for the first time in months. That would have been sensible and practical, after everything you had endured. Instead, you wandered the halls and went looking for trouble. You knocked on trouble’s door.

    And Trouble said, “Come in.”

    Summary

    It's been close to a year since the Riddler, aka Edward Nashton, was put away in Arkham, seemingly for good. Now he's out, escaping in the dead of night, and when Batman finds him, he's already up to his old habits.

    But there is sort of a problem beyond the whole, Riddler getting out thing.

    Someone posing as the Riddler himself is now trying to terrorize the city by sending out notes. And out of everyone, the Riddler himself might just be the man to figure out who's stealing his identity. So, Batman and The Riddler might just have to put their differences aside this once for the greater good. Or, maybe, they can put their differences aside for a little longer.

    Summary

    Growing up as she was had often made Reba frustrated, sometimes angry, but she’d come out of it all clean, more or less, and assured of her own strength.

    Whatever D went through had left him in pieces.

    Summary

    Clef has his fears, but instead of telling anyone, they are often buried deep inside, which he will eventually forget. Yes, they are still there, and yes, they spark up in his dreams.
