Summary
“Has Robin always been this, uh…” There’s a pause that grows heavier the longer it lingers. “Stoic?”
“I dunno,” Kon sighs. “Maybe? I only ever teamed up with him like, twice before the whole ‘Kidworld’ thing, but that was before Superman came back, so there’s a pretty big gap in between.”
“I could be wrong, but…” Bart sounds uncharacteristically hesitant, like each word is being slowly pulled out of him. “I think something might have happened to him. Something bad.”
(Five rooftop encounters between the third Robin and a Kryptonian, and one that happens deep underground.)

Summary
"Hurry," says Impa, ancient and anxious.
"Hurry," says the ghost of a woman you've mostly forgotten.
The Master Sword burns in your hands as you pull, knees trembling and sweat slick between your shoulder blades.
(People keep telling you who you are, the hero you're destined to be. Eventually, you're going to prove them wrong.)

Summary
The bond company sees the SecUnit’s sentience as a selling point, not an ethical quandary. Dr. Mensah believes that it is a person before she ever lays eyes on it. Meeting that person and folding them into their lives requires a lot of hard discussions and complicated preparations. Only some of this was covered in the rental documents.

Summary
Episode 224 of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon features a controversial B-plot and a metaphorically complicated group sex scene, so SecUnit is a little less distracted while Dr. Arada and Prof. Bharadwaj conduct their crater survey.
Later, Dr. Rhatti will call some of this planet’s fauna monsters, noting how one specimen quote “chewed SecUnit completely in half.”

Summary
Crowley drifts through the cottage, idly gathering stray cups and wine glasses with the intent to wash them only to abandon the task halfway through. Two months ago, the sight of their kitchen in such a state would make him want to scream. It makes him want to scream now, of course, but that’s hardly the kitchen’s fault, is it? Not when literally everything makes him want to bury his claws deep into his own face and scream until he can’t scream anymore.
(It's some number of days after they quit counting the days in quarantine. There's a flaming sword of thorns where Crowley's spine should be.)

Summary
You are a sister in an order of anti-Satanic nuns. You are doing your part to save the world. It is a small part, but very, very important. Mother Superior told you so.
It would be certainly be more pleasant, however, if the demon manacled to a chair in your convent’s basement would quit trying to talk to you.
“Pleassssse,” it hisses, voice trembling with almost convincing fear. “You have to help me...”

Summary
It is twenty-five years until the end of the world. Aziraphale sells a book and invites Crowley to a wedding.
It is three hours until the end of the world. In a bar somewhere in London, Crowley falls into a black, bottomless hole.
It is ten seconds to the end of the world. Aziraphale says something too horrible to repeat. Crowley trembles against the wet tarmac, stuck there by a gravity not of this world.
It is some time after the not-end of the world. Aziraphale holds him tightly by the hand. Everything is going so terribly, terribly fast.
(Listen: Anthony Crowley has come unstuck in time.)

Summary
“I wish you would at least try some,” says Aziraphale.
Crowley stares at the loaf of bread cooling on the counter, fat and glazed gold and only slightly singed at the furthest edges. Folds thin arms over his bony chest.
His stomach is a hard, round lump at the center of him, weighing him down. Anchoring him to the earth.

Summary
“Welcome home, my sons, and—” Splinter's whiskers perk forward abruptly as two more purple-masked heads emerge from the water. “—my sons?”
“Long story,” Donnie says, shaking some of the water from his boots. “Short version goes something like this: mysterious bad guys, creepy abandoned warehouse, experiments with alien technology, portals to other dimensions, encounters with alternate selves, alternate selves in mortal peril, yada yada yada, alternate selves pulled into home dimension in Hail Mary pass to keep matrix of known multiverse from collapsing, unfortunate twist of circumstance trapping said alternate selves here for the time being.”
“Plus,” Mikey adds, “these dudes were getting the short end of the ninja stick from our douchebag alternate selves, and we really, really thought they’d be better off with us.”

Summary
It’s not like Don is doing this for fun, he reminds himself as the olive-skinned turtle makes up four fresh syringes and starts measuring out doses. He’s his doctor and his brother, he only has Mikey’s best interest at—
He blinks, eyes suddenly fixed on the band of cloth fixed tight to Don’s upper thigh. “Dude, what’s wrong with your leg?”

Summary
Between the blood loss and the post-fight adrenaline crash from hell, all Donnie wants to do is close his eyes and not be for a while, but with a hole the size of New Jersey in what’s left of the fan room, most of the lair burned or half-buried in rubble, and Master Splinter still barely able to sit upright, that’s not about to happen any time soon.

Summary
As a reporter, April O’Neil doesn’t believe in questions that she shouldn’t know the answers to. “Okay,” she says, pretending for a moment longer that she’s not in her bathroom talking to her own reflection with an ironing board and a stack of pillows belted to her back. “Let the experiment begin.”
