Summary
Max is trying to be patient, he really is. It’s only Bart’s second Christmas ever, and it’s his first without his mom. She couldn’t make it. And Bart gets it – Max has no doubt of that, he’s a smart kid – but that doesn’t stop him from missing his mom. Max can sympathize with that, he really can, and it’s not like Max is Cindy Lou Who… But, as they get closer and closer to Christmas Day, Bart gets closer and closer to becoming the Grinch.

Summary
Opia
Opia is a word coined by John Koenig for the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows that describes the ambiguous and intense emotion of looking someone in the eye. It is a feeling that is simultaneously invasive and vulnerable, where you feel you can see into the other person's soul but are also exposed. The term captures the complex mixture of emotions in mutual gaze that often lacks the words to be properly articulated.
///////
Thad’s body is ripped apart by the speed force, and now he is stuck in Morlo’s lab with people he doesn't trust and don't trust him. Everyone is feeling... SO many emotions. -

Summary
"Bart just wasn’t meant to play with toys.
Just like how Bart wasn’t meant to have baby photos, or lose his baby teeth and put it under his pillow or learn things slowly. Those things were for others, not him.
Bart isn’t human like the people around him. He’s… He’s something else. He’s not a child, he’s not a boy, and he’s not a girl. He’s...
Just Bart. "
Or: Bart Allen struggles with his loss of childhood and all that it means. Unknowingly, he stumbles into age regression as a coping mechanism.

Summary
He didn’t even remember falling asleep. What had he been doing? Tim furiously scrubbed a hand over his eyes, willing the fog clinging to his senses to dissipate.
“I’m sorry, Dad, I was just–” Tim turned, and promptly cut himself off. Oh, he thought, not Dad.
—
Five times Tim woke up and thought of his parents, and one time he fell asleep knowing he was home.
