Summary
Flying back to Cherry Street, weaving reckless in the dark, it comes down to this: Dick is the only one of his siblings that Jason has any real claim on. Dick is the only one of that whole mess of victims to Batman's cult of self-immolation who belongs to Jason. Even more than that - Dick is the only person in the world who he shares a parent with, who knows what it meant to be the Robin to Batman of nearly ten years ago.
It's just not the same anymore.
So if Dick fucking kicks it, Jason's the only one left. Jason becomes an only child. Jason becomes the last of his kind. Jason becomes the sole keeper of that memory, of a brotherhood shared under a man who no longer exists. There is no way to replace Dick, because the world that they lived in together is gone, and can never give Jason a surrogate.
The Red Hood pulls the thread on a mystery big enough to bridge the distance between two cities, two brothers: The plot they unravel is far deeper and darker than a garden-variety drug trafficking scheme. A story about siblingship, hauntings, and rivers.
1. Ostium, osti(i): Latin noun, II Declension: Door, opening; (river) mouth; entrance (to the underworld).

Summary
Positioning herself just so, Steph starts running her fingers through Cass’ hair. Cass’ greasy hair. “Dude, is Oracle neglecting you? You know you have to wash your hair, right?”
“Do. I do.” She shimmies forward so her tangles catch on Steph’s finger, forcing the hair through. It must pinch but pain like that doesn’t seem to register to Cass.
“When did you last wash it?”
Cass shrugs, with a touch of frustration. “One day. Already.”
“Yesterday,” Steph fills in. When you’re in the middle of an anti-annexed disaster zone, there’s no time to dwell on the past. It’s whether the water will last until tomorrow or the rats will take over the sewer next week or the Joker cultists will attack the displacement camps next month. It’s how long you can hold your shaky breath, stay on your aching feet, clamp down on your empty stomach.
“Oracle has been neglecting you,” Steph bemoans, flopping backwards.
Or, Cass hasn't been washing her hair effectively. Steph shows her how.

Summary
Papyrus knew something was wrong with his brother—people didn't drop their HP Cap for good reasons, after all. But last he'd checked it was much higher than ONE. With terror in his marrow and his brother staying stubbornly silent about whatever was going on, Papyrus decided it was time to call in the cavalry, because he would be damned if he stood back and watched his brother Fall Down and Dust without doing anything.
OR
Papyrus realizes that being on the Surface hasn't helped his brother's crippling depression, because his HP is still 1. So he decides to bring the others in on his brother's stats to try to help.

Summary
Edward Elric, the youngest state alchemist in Amestrian history, has been a part of Mustang's team for a week now. However, he hasn't made any attempts to get to know the various members of the team.
After a suggestion from Fuery and an order from Hawkeye, Havoc, Fuery, Breda, Falman, Ed, and Al are going to be spending the next two hours together in a Natural History Museum.
It is, without a doubt, the most boring thing Havoc can think of doing on a Friday night. But at least it will be a relatively stress-free evening.
Right?

Summary
In unearthing the Nomu Factory, the Heroes and police of Japan discovered a body. This was not unexpected, but the nationality and uniform of the corpse in question… that was. Because this failed Nomu wore the uniform of Amestris, a war torn nation from the isolated continent of Atossa, where Quirks and modern electronics had never developed and never worked.
Edward Elric hoped he could retire from military service in peace, traveling Amestris while his brother Alphonse went to Xing. This is put on hold when now-Führer Mustang asks him to travel to the Outside, to the world beyond that was barricaded for centuries after the development of something called ‘Quirks’. A soldier has been killed and Amestris needs to know more about the Outside.
…
Or, Edward Elric and Amestris meet the greater world of Heroes and Villains. It remains to be seen who’s more traumatized by the encounter.
