    Example: Dick buys two birthday cards for Damian. One starts with “For my son,” and the other says “To a cool guy.” Dick gives Damian the latter, and keeps the former locked away. He doesn’t need to make this into something it’s not.

    Summary

    " That's why they chose you to be the first member of the villain redemption program. "

    Grian immediately started to claw at his cuffs. Doc crossed his arms, and he could feel the man rolling his eyes, " Tell me when you're ready to talk. "

    Grian blew out a breath of air. " Ready to talk about you melting these chains for me, maybe. " He grunted, wishing for not the first time in his life that he had some weird magic powers to run away from the heroes.

    Grian is a jailed villain, reduced to nothing but a pile of chains. Scar is a renowned hero, stopping more and more threats as days go by.
    Neither of them particularly like where this is going.

    Summary

    “Hello?” He spoke it. He knew he did. He felt the sounds vibrate in his throat. The roundness of the vowels and the soft-sharpness of the L’s. The way his pitch rose at the end, its vibrations thin and wavering.

    Nothing. He couldn’t hear a thing.

    Or,

    after the events of Double Life, Grian loses (most of) his hearing
