Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
work title from the song "Not Entirely Alone" by The Narcissist Cookbook.
After telling his parents about Phantom goes nearly as badly as he could have imagined it going, Danny left Amity Park behind to drift from city to city. He never thought he’d settle down again, but something about Gotham makes him want stability for the first time in the five years he's been on his own.
Jason’s pretty sure his life is about as good as it's going to get. The pit rage isn’t gone, but he’s managed to direct it into something vaguely resembling productivity–until he meets a lonely mechanic with a suspicious ability to calm him down who seems to be able to read him like a book.
And maybe, just maybe, neither of them needs to be alone anymore–if they can learn to trust each other first.

Summary
It's their third trip out since they found the taumoeba.
The Hail Mary has been upgraded, and now runs with a crew of nine Eridians. Plus the human mascot, Grace.
It might be his last trip out, but Grace is making the best of it. He's just in the way at that point. His eyesight is no longer needed for the ship to run smoothly, and he could be teaching instead. He's enjoyed the trip. He really has.
But the last of the new beetles are off, headed to distant star systems. Grace was settled in at the viewport when they found an anomaly.
That's an odd astrophage signature.

Summary
"There's no need to negotiate for your safety, Doctor Grace," Stratt says carefully. "I can assure you, after saving the world, you will be looked after."
"Um, no," he says, shaking his head. "I'm not negotiating for my safety." He steps aside. “I’m negotiating for theirs.”
They appear in the brutal light of the open doorway, Simon squinting hard against the vivid sunlight, his hand raised to shield his eyes, and Rocky, who chirps a casual "Hello, humans!" with a wave.
There’s a gasp; someone takes a step backward; one of the military personnel raises their rifle slightly before Stratt makes a sharp gesture for them to stand down.
Grace doesn’t have eyes for them - he only looks at Stratt.
And he decides, then and there, to replace the image of Stratt’s face sending him to his death, full of remorse and sadness, with the one in front of him: utter, complete disbelief.
Grace thinks he'll treasure it forever.or: rocky and grace (+simon) go to earth instead of erid
