    Summary

    There is occasionally a certain point one reaches during the attempt to attain a goal where one decides that the goal is just not worth it.

    Unfortunately, this also often coincides with being at a point in the attainment of that goal where it’s too damn late and you’re just gonna have to suck it up, buttercup, and get your shit together and do it anyway.

    Tim is pretty sure this shit is absolutely not worth it, but it’s too late now and even if it wasn’t, Mama ain’t raise no fuckin’ quitter.

    Or:

    Tim’s quest to bring Bruce back from his Time-Travel-Super-Vacation goes horribly topsy-turvey when Ra's takes a more pro-active approach to keeping Tim prisoner, and he ends up in an alternate universe where he never existed, and everybody is disorientingly well-adjusted and weirdly obsessed with his “wellness”, whatever that means.

    Tim hates mystical artifacts.

    (Alternate universe Better Batfam trope)

    I’m setting the pieces in chronological order but reading them in the order I posted them is ok too

    Summary

    The alien was saying something about Carl. Asking her if she remembered that she was going to talk to him tonight, whether she remembered the videos they’d shown her. It all seemed too far away and too close all at once, numb and overwhelming. Didn’t they know Carl was dead? She knew. God, did she know. She’d mourned him for months now.

    Bea’s POV leading up to and during the confrontation on Odette’s show.

    Summary

    How many times in his life had Simon stared out into the fading stars, and heard others calling out to deities or a universe that didn’t care…or if it did, was powerless to fix anything. Simon didn’t know what was worse. And then, just when all his hope had been thrown alongside him into a Blood Ocean on a mysterious moon… he finds himself lost to a flash of light. Maybe the C.O.I were right all along, Grace is the true salvation.

    Now with sequel!
