    Summary

    Mindy Park is rapidly realising that the first intelligent extraterrestrial to make contact with the human race thinks they’re fucking stupid. She’s pretty sure that Dr Grace isn’t accurately translating half the things Rocky is saying, but most of what he is telling her is that Rocky has a better way of doing what NASA wants them to do, and honestly, it seems like Rocky is mostly right. She probably doesn’t want to know what the other half of what Grace’s new alien friend is saying, if the things that are making it through what she’s calling the “middle school teacher filter” are “why would you do something the dumb way when you could do it the right way”.

    or,

    Mindy has a headache, Grace has trauma, Mark is confused and Rocky is wondering how humans made it in to space when they're all so, so dumb.

    Summary

    Ryland Grace wakes up, goes to work, feels the rain on his face, teaches his students, cries over the galaxy, and dreams about a rock.

    Wait.

    What's that last one all about?

    There is a feeling in the back of his head like he's forgetting something. Is he forgetting something?

    Is he forgetting something again?

    Summary

    Tim doesn't really want to have a therapy session with his own subconscious. Especially since his subconscious seems a little...off. Still, he doesn't regret the choices that led him here. He doesn't regret the role he had to play.

    But Tim doesn't know that there's a timer ticking down over his head. A timer that Bruce and his brothers are trying desperately to beat.

    Summary

    Your world is gone. Your life is forfeit. Those are two things I cannot change, the voice warned him gently. I can give you another version of your family. But I must tell you, this world and the people you will see won't be the same. A silent death may be better than this fate.

    Once, Tim had dreamt of silent death. Once, Tim had yearned for unearned peace.

    Tim didn’t speak, and still the voice sighed. I see. I will choose a good world for you. You will fall in love with it. It will break your heart. It spoke with certainty that rang with great weight. Do you still want it?

    Tim thought of family. Of loneliness. Of all that lay in between.

    Forcibly, painfully, Tim parted his lips. Breath rattled free, and he croaked out, “Yes.”

    Oh, child, it mourned, and then a hand pressed against his chest and a scream ripped free from his body. Like the howling of a beast.

    ***

    Tim's family, planet, and universe are destroyed in a matter of years. He dies, too, in the end, but is given a second chance at existence in a different world. A world where Damian is the first Robin and everything is backwards.

    He takes it.
