Summary
A Rocky POV of Project Hail Mary, but add in a sprinkle of originally named astrophages, petrova lines, language barriers, and extra, extra worldbuilding.

One day, his strumming was not answered.
The silence that answered his one verse of song was horrible and grating. Incomplete. Empty. A sick, horrible fear built up inside him.
(He was going to die out here. Alone.)

"Iz huhg," Grace sniffled out, sucking back in moisture from his noze, too. There was moisture and water and everything all over the place. "Huhg meens grayt, grayt, grayt affekshun."
"Oh," he said tentatively. Another hewmin thing! He shuffled closest to the wall Grace was huhging and leaned in. "Oh. Am I doing correctly, hmm?"
"Yis," Grace sighed out, calming down. He still leaked, though.
Oh, well. Leaky hewmins were his favorite, after all.

Summary
Dick is covering for Batman at a League meeting when they are called out to deal with an emergency unexpectedly. Barry contracts a contagious virus, and the League has to stay quarantined until the vaccine is finished. The only problem is, the League doesn't know that Batman doesn't work alone, or that the Batman they're working with right now isn't the Batman they know at all.

you know what? tim's not at all affected by being rejected by his bio-dad bruce wayne, you know why? because he's young, rich, hot, totally well-adjusted, popular, not at all a mess and honestly? that's all that matters!he's not petty enough to let his daddy issues descend into cold calculated revenge because he doesn't need bruce or batman or whatever he's calling himself these days. he doesn't need him. really. because he's perfect just the way he is. he doesn't want his attention or love either. duh.
and if, let's say, he ever tried to enact said revenge plan (as a joke, obviously. he would NEVER--) he's not worried (because that would be crazy) because his mom would never let him get thrown into arkham! which, at the end of the day; that's all that matters over standard parental affection. promise.

Summary
Tim Drake knows that crying yields no data. He learned that at six years old in an empty house, illuminated only by the blue light of a computer screen.
Now, he’s an exhausted student by day and a digital poltergeist by night. He doesn't just "watch" the Wayne family, he optimizes them. He hacks their coffee machines, stabilizes their tactical HUDs, and leaves anonymous medical alerts on the Bat-computer when Bruce’s cortisol levels spike. It’s not stalking if it’s protective, right?
But when Jason Todd corners him in the library to argue about The Great Gatsby, Tim realizes that maintaining a firewall is a lot harder when the target is sitting across the table. It turns out, you can’t calculate your way out of a hug, and the Waynes are very, very persistent.

Summary
Timothy Jackson Drake is almost four years old, and he knows a lot of things.
He knows how to read and write, and how to do simple math, and how to say “pleased to meet you” and “goodbye” and “thank you” and “may I use the bathroom” in French. He also knows how to introduce himself politely, and how to hold his knife and fork properly, and when it is okay to bother other people and when it isn’t.
AKA
Tim meets his new nanny for the summer, Miss Claire! The impact of this will be relatively small, I'm sure.

Summary
Tim wakes up inexplicably in his two-year-old body. Which: odd. But just think, how many people would kill to have an opportunity to redo their life! And Tim has so much he wants to change, so much he wants. He wants to feel important to Bruce. He wants to be Dick's favorite. He wants Jason (his childhood hero) to think he's cool. He wants Damian to need him. And really, is it manipulation if his family benefits from it?
Or: He was halfway through the second trash can, when a startled “Good lord” caught him off guard. Tim glanced up, the rhythmic sucking of his pacifier coming to a still at the sight of a black Rolls Royce idling at the side road that lead to Wayne Manor. Alfred was staring at him from the over the car top, aghast. “Master Bruce, it’s not a raccoon.”
From the back seat, Bruce Wayne stared at him. Tim stared back.
Or: Tim is side tracked by his actual childish needs and wants, gets a whole bunch of his nannies fired, terrorizes his parents with a series of petty revenges, is an honest employer of one (1) newly minted murderer for hire, endears himself to – and thoroughly weirds out – the Waynes, and is generally just a petty, manipulative, vindictive, smol boy.

Summary
If you were to show Luciana her ability scores, she’d lament even more that she was raised in a community cut off from the Weave, because it’s painfully obvious that she should have been a wizard. She’d be insulted by the abysmal WIS score, think on it, and then begrudgingly agree. She’d laugh at the CHA score, assuming it must be a mistake. After puzzling over it, she’d decide that lacking any sort of ‘EMP’ score for empathy in the game, high CHA had been the easiest way to represent how she seems to be able to make people feel listened to. Because she has far too much stage fright for actual charisma.
Unfortunately for everyone including her, Luciana doesn’t know she’s in a game, and on the day she decides she should get one free murder as a treat, the realms seem to have conspired to land her on the biggest stage imaginable. She’d be mad, except her Patron did promise her all and everything and forever. She’s not sure she wants it anymore, because as it turns out, the world contains a lot more suffering than her sheltered upbringing prepared her for.
Or:
The horniest, most violent, and most self-indulgent playthrough I could muster, because why the fuck not. Enjoy. -

Summary
Timothy’s body was nothing but a byproduct of violence and death. The pit healed his wounds but left scars that burned worse. He was ugly, he knew, but it hardly bothered him. Ugly things were real and permanent. They marred the world, left their mark wherever they went. It was not his ugliness that unnerved him. It was his simplistic mind that he was ashamed of.
His body was broken but his mind was carved empty. He’d been brilliant once, he was sure. Sometimes Ra’s told him stories of his past intelligence, of the times when he called him Detective. Timothy listened to those stories with childish envy, unable to comprehend how the person Ra’s spoke of with such pride had been him.
Sometimes, he thought the Bat might love him. Then he would remember that he wasn't the one he looked at with such soft eyes and he'd think of the Tim that the Bat wanted with such visceral hatred that he scared himself.
or
Timothy forgets. Ra's lies. His family is there for him, come hell or high water.

Summary
“Dick, look at me.”
When he obeys, Dick sees a fierceness in the lines of Bruce’s jaw that wasn’t there before.
“It wasn’t your fault. You don’t have to atone for anything today.”
“Yes, I have to”, Dick whispers. “Yes, it was.”
Or: A vengeful villain kidnaps the Robins on Bruce’s fortieth birthday and gives him four hours to save them. The fact that Dick still feels guilty about what happened on Bruce’s thirtieth birthday further complicates the matter.

Summary
After a difficult year (for many reasons) Tim goes back to Gotham to help Jason Todd reconnect with his family. Whether Jason wanted that or not, well, Tim had time to wear him down. Between the tutelage of Deathstroke and Lady Shiva, he was well equipped to handle himself as Jason's equal and hit Gotham's vigilante scene as the Buzzard. His parents were dead and the lonely cavity in his chest kept growing every day, but it didn't matter. Tim's mission could and would succeed despite his personal feelings and failures. He was fine and he had a job to do.

Summary
When they accidentally cause trouble for the wrong mob boss, Jack and Janet Drake come up with a completely flawless plan: return to Gotham to retrieve their son, fake the deaths of their entire family, then flee to Belgium. Tim can see a number of issues with this, mainly that (1) it's the stupidest thing he's ever heard, (2) his parents are definitely lying to him about something, and (3) Belgium. With all to play for, it's now up to Tim to create a believable narrative and avoid getting caught by any means necessary - even if that means traumatising the odd vigilante or two. He's willing to do whatever it takes to protect his family.
(But... which family?)
