    Summary

    “You sleep, I’ll watch.” 

    We both know that they are not going to sleep. We both know that the moment they go still, they will be dead. And I will be alone. But I won’t say that, and they won’t say that, even if it’s the truth. 

    “You…save Erid,” they say. 

    Not a question. 

    I will be the last Eridian on our ship. I will be the last hope. 

    Or I will die. Just like every other Eridian has died here, and will eventually die on Erid, because we failed.  

    I shift low, close to where my last friend lays. “You sleep, I will watch,” I tell them again. 

    And they go to sleep. 

    And they never wake up again. 

    Rocky loses everyone on his crew.

    Years later, he meets an alien.

    Summary

    It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
    It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…

    Summary

    While sorting her thoughts out at Hometown's sad excuse for a beach, Susie is distracted from fantasizing about beating up the Knight by a certain human showing up with a new, terrifying, exciting offer.

    “Susie, let’s run away.”

    “Whoa-whoa-whoa, hang on, what?” Susie jolted back, but Kris grasped her hand, stronger than she’d expected from such a shrimp. Their weird long piano-player fingers squeezed against her scales, bitten nails digging against purple keratin.

    She did not like the way they smiled at her. The smile looked broken, wobbling its way up either cheek towards watery eyes gone so wide Susie could trace the whites around each shrunken pupil.

    “Right now. We can go anywhere, Susie. Anywhere that’s not Hometown. There’s a bus route just past the police station that runs overnight. I have money from Asriel’s drawer. We can be twenty miles south by morning.”

    Summary

    There’s not really a point in owning a car, especially with the cost of insurance. With the threat of student debt looming overhead like a cloud, Bernard can’t afford to buy a car without help, and there’s no way he’ll ever ask Tim.

    So Bernard doesn’t really drive. He’s happy to let his weirdly specific driving skills get swept under the rug, because the thing he has with Tim still feels delicate and new, and he doesn’t want to ruin it by bringing up that his uncle was in a gang and hey, he just happened to teach Bernard how to drive. Bernard wants to avoid any kind of conversation around crime in Gotham, actually. Especially after what happened in high school.

    It’s not like he’s ever going to need to drive a getaway car, anyway. As far as Bernard is concerned, it’ll never come up.

    Bernard learned to drive from his henchman uncle. The last place he expects to use this skill is at a dinner with his boyfriend's family.

    Summary

    Tim shrugs. “I know his limits. Sometimes he just needs a little push in the right direction.”

    “A push,” Damian echoes incredulously. “Jason Todd needs a push. The Red Hood. The same one who tried to kill you a couple years ago.”

    “You’ve also tried to kill me, to be fair.”

    “To be fair, it would not be wise for you to push me, either.”

     

    -

     

    After an injury benches Tim for a few months, he and Damian are forced to cohabitate until Tim recovers. Along the way Damian learns that there’s a lot he doesn’t understand about Tim Drake, starting with his total lack of self-preservation.
