A/N: This story idea has been in my head since Saving Grace aired and has been sitting partially written for entirely too long. Thank to SkyHighRollins for the beta!

Grace’s head is pounding and her body aches all over. As her doctor walks into the room, she winces as she tries to readjust herself on the bed. It’s been a few days since she first woke up at Westlake Memorial, since she learned she has amnesia. She just wants to wake up from this nightmare and exist in the life that she remembers as vividly as if it were yesterday, surrounded by people that she actually knows and loves. Not a stranger standing in her doorway telling her that he’s her husband.
“Mrs. Ryder, how are you feeling this morning?” Dr. Santiago asks with a soft smile as she approaches her bed.
“Please, call me Grace. I’m not—” Grace’s tone is short and clipped, and she almost feels sorry for it. Why would anyone think she wants to go by a name that she doesn’t even remember taking? When she doesn’t know her ‘husband’ any more than someone off the street.

Summary:
It’s just a case debrief, he tells himself. It’s just another case debrief. They’ve done dozens of them. Vic is new at this, after all — he could use the guidance. When they’re done, they’ll go back to the Tower and write up their reports on the computers there. Dick will print out an extra copy for the Batcave and have Raven or Wally run it over. It’ll be just like any other case.
Or, Dick has a blindspot.

Even before he opens his eyes, Judd knows where he is. There’s the dull hum of monitors, a distinct scent of antiseptic that cuts through his senses before he blinks his eyes open. The smell jars him, making his gut twist as it triggers memories years in the past from when he woke up in a hospital bed just like this one. Judd’s body aches with each breath and he winces as he shifts.
His throat is sore and tight with disuse as his gaze lands on Tommy, where she sits at his bedside. That’s the first thing that makes him realize this ain’t just a nightmare, the one where he relives the night he lost his entire family at the 126 all those years ago. When he finally did wake up after that explosion, Tommy wasn’t the one sitting vigil at his bedside waiting for the moment he’d wake up. Judd’s forehead creases as he tries to move through the brain fog. It doesn’t matter what landed him here, not really. There’s only one thing he gives a damn about.
“Where’s Grace? Where’s my wife?” he asks.
Tommy’s mouth opens slightly, a look crossing over her face as she looks away from Judd. That’s when Judd realizes that they’re not in the room alone. Captain Strand is sitting in the chair on the far side of the room, closest to the small row of windows overlooking the hospital’s parking lot.
“She’s here too,” Owen says, though the hesitation is clear in his tone, in the barely there pause before he’d answered. Instead of turning his attention to Judd, his gaze remains on Tommy and that aversion makes Judd feel like he’s going to be sick.
“What?” Judd croaks. “What aren’t you two tellin’ me?”
“Here,” Tommy says softly, grabbing a styrofoam cup from the table beside his bed, holding the straw to his lips.
“Tommy.”
“I’m gonna tell you what’s going on, okay? Just take a few sips of water, please, Juddy.” Judd isn’t happy about it and his eyes never leave Tommy’s face. As he takes a few sips, he winces as the fluid works its way down his parched throat.
