Summary
Keith has always known he’s different.
That part is old news. He made peace with it a long time ago, somewhere between flunking out of the Garrison and discovering he was half-Galra. Compared to that, being a little awkward, a little out of place, barely even registers.
What does not make sense is the rest of it. Because at no point during the rebuilding of the universe, the formation of the Coalition, or his promotion to Blade Leader did anyone sit him down and 'say, hey, by the way, you got taller!'.
If he had been better at it, he might have realized sooner that he’d had some sort of growth spurt.
The first one to notice it was Pidge.
-
Or, five times Keith didn’t realize he had a growth spurt, and the one time he noticed right on time.

Summary
“Trust us,” Dick said. “You do not need to do this. You do not need to choose this. If you were looking for permission,” he continued softly, gesturing at the gravestone behind them, “then you have it. You are free to let this go.”
“Be happy,” Damian finished, pushing out the words with much difficulty.
At the crossroads of choosing love or the cowl, a broken Bruce Wayne—not yet Batman, not fully, not quite—begs his dead parents for absolution.
In a twist of deus ex machina, the Robins witness this moment in time. They have a solution.

Summary
Eva feels like the breath is knocked out of her lungs when the man walks in.
Dirty blond hair. Blue eyes. Sort of like… if Ryland Grace was hit by a car several times. It was undeniably him.
“So you’re Eva Stratt,” The man says gruffly, slamming both hands on her desk. He looked exactly like Ryland, it was terrifying. It felt like watching a ghost haunt her in real life.
“You’re the crazy woman that sent my baby brother up into space. Let’s talk, yeah?”
or
Colt Seavers finds out his twin brother was sent on a suicide mission. He does not take it well.

Summary
“How long do humans live for, question. Rocky want to know.”
Rocky stamps his claw impatiently on the flat surface of his xenonite ball as he asks, a skittery, jittery movement that rattles in Ryland’s ears.
He sighs. Rubs at his temples. Thinks about how to answer this as diplomatically as physically possible, as at ease as physically possible.
It’s not that he cares much about the fact he’ll be dead long long before Rocky. He doesn’t care about that. He’s probably going to die a whole lot sooner than your average human, anyway, considering his diet of coma-slurry and Taumoeba and little else. Besides, he’s been in space for longer than anybody has been in the history of ever. That’s sure to do messed-up things to his bones and joints and mass and everything. But it doesn’t matter. He’s made peace with that. For-real made peace, because any time more is a thousand times over what he thought he’d get.
What does matter is that Rocky has no idea that there’s probably only about fifty years left in his tank.
***
Or: the average male human lifespan is 80 years. Rocky doesn't know that.
