sugar, we're going down swinging
Roy grimaced at the pounding in his temples. He shifted in the sheets, taking stock - no injuries, no missing appendages - and brought a hand up to rub his face. He did a quick mental recap. Roy Harper. Archer. Red Arrow. Formerly Speedy. Clone. Currently feeling like roadkill. Opening his eyes fully proved difficult as he squinted against the sunlight pouring in through the open window, and he immediately knew something was wrong. Besides his tragic hangover, he wasn't even at home. His dingy Star City apartment didn't get this much sun ever, not even on good days.

scintillation (the sky is clear; the stars are twinkling)
“What the - ” Artemis froze in place. Cursing everything that had led her to this point, she turned around sheepishly. Staring at her with wide eyes was a boy around her age, barefoot and grasping a - was that a frying pan? His stance turned defensive as he brandished the pan at her. “Who are you and what are you doing here.”

warriors to the end
He knelt in a traditional warrior bow of respect, his nose nearly touching the ground. He would have bent further if he could have - Spirits knew she deserved it - but his movements weren't as fluid as they were before. Years ago, when they had been together, fighting side by side, a perfect team. He rose, on shaky but sturdy limbs, vision distorted by stray tears. It appeared that he still had more to spare.

maul the world like a carnival bear set free

cut out all the ropes
Jade is drunk. So there’s that. The only reason he’s even here to witness this undoubted trainwreck is because Artemis is out of town - Stanford, of all places - and apparently he’s the next best thing (“Please, Roy! I’ll never rag on your whole sidekick thing again.”).

the sky is everywhere
She’d just sent Bart off to take a shower when the doorbell rang. Artemis, hair loose but in still costume (cowl off, no gloves) walked into the living room and immediately spotted a pint of Ben and Jerry’s perched innocently on the coffee table. A yellow post-it was stuck hap-hazardly to the paper container, the condensation already causing it to unstick.

dust through the light
They explained things to him - his name (Wally? Really?), how he’s a (retired) superhero speedster (or used to be at least; he can’t even run faster than Robin now), who was attending Stanford (nice, high-five, Wally) before he…ceased (he notices the way everyone pauses before saying it) eleven months ago. You know, normal, ordinary things, all of which he accepts just fine. He’s a blank slate; he could have been the President of the United States for all he knew.

in blackest day
Ladies and gentlemen, the Flying Graysons! You’re nine when you watch your family, your team, go crashing down and you can’t do a thing about it, you can’t even cry (here’s a hint: the crying part comes later). There’s just silence. Then the screaming begins.

infinity times infinity
The Interceptor was quiet. They had had a run-in with six Manhunters on Revya Prime, an abandoned planet in Kilowog’s sector, and everyone was either mildly injured or exhausted. Green Lantern Hal was in his quarters, having a nap, while Green Lantern Kilowog was in the bridge. Only she and Razer had been hurt in the battle. Razer’s wounds were superficial at worst, and she merely had to disassemble herself to integrate with the ship’s system to make repairs.

tonight is splitting its seams
Razer rewinds the tape, and rewinds it again. There is no audio to it, but what happened is clear enough. He hardly remembers what happened but after viewing the security recordings, the memory becomes clearer in his mind, though it still feels like watching it through a veil. And after…
