    Summary

    This past week had been insane, per usual, and seeing Bernard in person and not through a screen had been the only thing getting Tim through it all.
    Unfortunately, getting stabbed and then dunked into murky canal water killed all his desire to be at the gala.

    Summary

    “What’re you doing here? I thought—kinda figured you’d be busy, these days.” Bernard asked. “And why are you acting like that?”

    “Acting like what?”

    Like someone who wasn’t caught up in a shooting a few weeks ago? Like someone whose dad didn’t just die? Like a caricature of yourself? Like you’re okay?

    “Like that,” Bernard said, waving a vague hand at him."

    Summary

    "Squeezing his arms tight against his chest, Tim rolled into a fetal position and closed his eyes.

    There were things he ought to be doing. Putting on his wrist braces, making himself breakfast, texting good mornings so nobody thought he’d been kidnapped in his sleep.

    But just the thought of trying to get his wrists and hands to cooperate that much made them thrum painfully."

    Summary

    They’d been dating for over a year and Bernard still hadn’t met Tim’s family. Bernard knew that Tim was an anxious, paranoid mess, and that he was just trying to keep things under control, but still. Not knowing Tim’s family made their whole thing feel less. . .permanent. Easier for Tim to end when he got scared. Easier for Tim to leave Bernard alone. Again.

    But Bernard was determined to make this work, because this past year had been the best year of his life and that was in large part due to Tim. So he’d done what normal, healthy people did in relationships and communicated his concerns to his boyfriend.

    And Tim had proven, once again, that he actually listened to Bernard.

    Or, Bernard bonding with the Batkids while also dealing with his trauma from his parents and from the cult. And maybe finding a family along the way.
