    Summary

    Rudo died during the fall. His rage lived on, transforming him into a sentient trash beast.

    Now he's learning how to survive alone, but how long will that last when the Cleaners start to catch wind about him?

    Summary

    “Hey yo, Seimu. Y’know how trash beasts are formed from negative energy? What do you think would happen if all those bad vibes came from a single person?” Enjin fake speculated.

    “Where exactly are you headed with this?” The woman on the other end of the line sounded suspicious.

    “Well, I found a dead sphereite out in no man’s land… and now there’s a pint-sized trash beast following me around. Here kid, say hi.” Enjin leaned down closer to his level, thumbing that weird collar.

    Rudo gave it his best shot and let out a terrible metallic shriek. Enjin pulled back away, grimacing.

    “So, yeah. I’m bringing him home. Make sure everybody knows not to kill on sight, ‘kay?”

    or

    Rudo dies before Enjin can find him after the fall. He’s too angry to stay that way.

    Summary

    Zanka goes still, stunned. Rudo is on the floor now, back against his bed as he fights his hardest not to cry.

    “Fuck-FUCK- that fucking hurt-“ He curses, unable to stay quiet any longer, lest he explode. Zanka stares down at him with an unreadable expression before—

    “What the hell did ya do.” He deadpans, though there’s a tremor in his voice Rudo hasn’t heard before.

    “I told you to leave me the hell alone!” Rudo’s voice lacks the bite he would’ve preferred it had, “You hurt me, asshole.”

    Zanka stays silent, and Rudo goes back to breathing deeply, trying any and all methods Regto had shown him back up on the Sphere to make the stabbing in his hands stop.

    “Show me your arm.”

    Rudo freezes.

    “Why?”

    Or
    Rudo’s hands have a habit of flaring up real bad. When Zanka stumbles upon this, his mind jumps to something else

    Summary

    Rudo hates his wings. They’re ugly, mangled ; was, is and always will be.

    But it’s ironic, really — how a magpie will actively seek out treasures, yet incapable of realising how precious itself already is.

    Summary

    "'Dad, am I broken?'

    Enjin makes a soft ‘oh’ noise and pulls Rudo forward into a fierce hug. He leans into it, waiting a moment before slowly bringing up his arms to wrap around Enjin. Enjin keeps ahold of him as he shifts sideways to sit on the couch, bringing Rudo up to curl closer and in his lap much like a cat."

    Or, Enjin is a Dad™ and can't escape his fate. (Not that he really wants to.)

    Summary

    Honestly, they found it kind of endearing whenever the Sphereite experienced something new. He would get this puzzled look on his face, staring at whatever it was with a hint of suspicion before tilting his head slightly, almost like a curious puppy trying to figure something out.

    Naturally, this made the cleaners start to wonder what else Rudo had never experienced before. What other completely normal things had this poor kid missed out on growing up in the slums on the Sphere?

    ------
    Five things the cleaners made Rudo try, and one thing he asked to try himself.

    Summary

    A strange thrum settled deep in his bones, vibrating slowly up his spine and spreading through his chest like a quiet pulse. His eyelids grew heavy, but Rudo forced them open again, shaking his head sharply in an attempt to clear the fog creeping through his mind. His heart, which had been pounding wildly from the struggle, began to slow.

    ------
    Zanka and Rudo are sent out on an errand together, that neither of them wants to do. During that time, they encounter a mysterious Giver who can put people into a state of sleep. Unfortunately, Rudo doesn’t dream… Rudo has nightmares. Now, Zanka must save his student from his own mind.

    Summary

    Now, all three kids were looking at him, their faces a mixture of curiosity and concern. Rudo shifted a bit awkwardly, shoulders drawing inward as the attention settled on him like a weight.

    Please stop looking at me...

    ------
    While all the kids are hanging out, Rudo’s hands begin to hurt, which leads to the other kids discovering his scars for the first time.

    Summary

    The impact was sudden and solid, slamming into him with far more force than he had expected. The world lurched violently as he was knocked off balance, his grip faltering as the chain slipped from his hand. For a split second, everything felt weightless.

    Then he hit the ground just as hard.

    While out on a job, Rudo gets hit a little too hard and ends up with a concussion. The rest of Team Akuta takes an embarrassingly long time figuring it out.

    Summary

    ‘Alright, let’s just take some deep breaths, okay? In and out, slowly.’

    ‘Get lostNO!’ Rudo roared again, eyes flashing in a terrorised, overwrought outrage. Then he ripped the table lamp from his bedside locker and angled it threateningly above his head.

    His voice hobbled over as he spoke, caught in a thick hook of swamped tears and mucus. ‘You’re NOT –’ he sniffed, hard; it sounded burnt-out and hurt. ‘–You’re not doing the breathing thing! That’s Regto’s thing!’

    Enjin bowed his face and inhaled sharply.

    Then he took a good, long look at him. ‘So that’s what this is about.’

     

     

    Or,

    Five times Enjin went to help Rudo - and the one time Rudo went to him.

    Summary

    So… Enjin knows himself, and he knows he is not someone suited to dealing with children. Piercing cries, overwhelming tantrums, and the strange language they seem to speak all confuse him, wear down his patience, and -at worst- make him feel useless and out of place. And yet, through a series of unforeseen incidents, he ends up becoming the babysitter of the youngest member of the Akuta team.

    OR; Rudo turns into a four-year-old child.

    Summary

    Rudo winced harshly as another wave of pain shot through his hands.

    It had been getting worse lately.

    The ache was always there to some degree, buried beneath everything else like a constant dull burn underneath his skin, but flare ups like this were unbearable. It felt like his nerves were being dragged across broken glass every single time he moved his fingers wrong.

    Summary

    Tim had learnt the only way to get his siblings to stop fighting was not through logic, but rather providing a distraction. Preferably one that would get them working together without a moment’s hesitation, but anything would do.

    Tim looked down at the lobster.

    He’d not had an allergic reaction in years.

    Slowly, he shovelled the largest chunk of meat onto his fork.

     

    Or: Tim gives himself an allergic reaction to stop an argument at family dinner.

    Summary

    Tim has been sick for the last few days. Today is the worst so far. He's fever is high enough that the Batfam has decided that he shouldn't be left alone for safety reasons. Which is why Tim is currently half asleep on the floor of the media room whilst the others watch a movie.

    When Tim suddenly starts talking about wanting his mama the boys think that the fever is making him delusional. Cass thinks different as Tim isn't Tim anymore. The voice is wrong, something isn't right. While Barbara knows for a fact that Tim isn't wanting for Janet, but rather JJ is wanting for Harley.

    That being said Barbara thought that that JJ was gone for good. However given the clear slight voice change, and Cass's confusion it's clear that the boy is back. The big question is what to do? Does she try to get Tim back, or does she give into JJ's request?

    Summary

    “I’m just saying-” Robin began again, walking along the edge of the rooftop, coincidentally stepping into what was going to be an amazing shot of his hero. “This would make a great picture, right B?”

    The man, Bruce, Time reminded himself, grunted in some kind of acknowledgment.

    Robin, now posing as if he was going to jump to the next building, sent a look of determination off to the middle distance, giving Tim the perfect opportunity for a fo-action shot.

    Five times Robin acted strangely on patrol and one time Red Hood did.
