Summary
Memories are altered, and so is reality. If you can’t trust yourself, can’t trust the things you see, what else is left? Is anything sacred?
'Dim light pours in from the widening gap as the hatch lifts. Grace doesn't remember the emergency lights being this bright. Being in complete darkness will do that to you, he guesses. He also doesn't remember that old stuffy rust scent, maybe his nose started bleeding from the ammonia again. But what he definitely doesn’t remember is another man on the ship.
“Hmhfy—!”
“What the fuck—!”'

Reading chapter 1
It's the aftermath of fishing and Grace is crawling in the crawl space to turn on the generators and ends up in the Iron Lung.
Surprised to see a man popping out of the floor, Simon demands to know who Grace is and how he snuck aboard. Grace has a panic attack, fearing he's hallucinating or that he hallucinated the Hail Mary and Rocky, scared that he can't trust any of his memories.
Concerned about how much oxygen is left, Simon crouches in front of Grace and gets him to calm down, introducing himself. He's shocked that a scientist would be stuck aboard let alone a mentor.
Together they use the X-Ray and navigation to go to where the skeleton was, to not find it. Going back to radio range, Grace talks to Simon while he talks to Ava, who pauses at hearing someone else is aboard, but insists that Simon go find the skeleton.
Simon scoffs when Grace says he's not COI, and attempts to bargain with Ava, stating that he's captain of the Hail Mary and has the solution aboard the Hail Mary, to no answer.
They go back down and search, smashing into something that causes the sub to jolt and Simon gets knocked out. Grace manages to find a depleted first aid kit and dies his best to pack Simon's head wound, leaving a cup with his pain medication in and done water besides Simon's head.
Grace reads through the manual, he'll need to go into the bowels if the sub to regain power, upon doing so his torch sparks and he drops it. He can feel the air conditioning from the Hail Mary, and exits to find a frantic Rocky.

“I-I’m sorry…I ne….” He frog-blinked a few times, his grip on the scalpel loosening briefly, then tightening again.
“ I nee…d…to go h-h-ome…” The man leaned in closer, and Simon almost couldn’t handle those eyes. “I donn’t wanna hurt… youuuoo but I’m sorry I…need to find…” His balance was off, as if he didn’t notice that he was missing a leg.
Simon swallowed. “...Your arm is bleeding.”

Updates once a week?
BloodyMary Swap AU. Simon is an Engineer on the Hail Mary who met Adrian in Tao Ceti. On their way back to Erid, they come across the Iron Lung. The Hail Mary has been travelling for 11 years.
Simon connects the ships and pressurised the tunnel, cutting into the Iron Lung to rescue the person (Grace) trapped inside.
The Iron Lung is cracked in blood. Grace had wedged himself under his workbench which he has handcuffed to. He's missing a leg.
Simon gets him to Armando who cuts off his clothes and begins working on Grace. Grace is covered in bruises and is malnourished, to the point that Simon can tell he's missing a rib, a small incision where it should be. Armando also pulls broken glass out of Grace's left arm.
Simon removes his helmet and vomits at the smell. Several days later Grace begins to stir and falls off the bed. Fixing a fan in the greenhouse, Simon rushes over at the sound and gets straddled by Grace and threatened with a scalpel.
Armando puts Grace to sleep and Simon and Adrian keep watching for when Grace wakes again. Grace wakes, asks if he's dead and if Simon is an Angel. Falls out of bed upon seeing Adrian and upon calming down notices he's missing a leg.

Tom Ryder flirting with Ryland Grace and Colt's knee jerk reaction being to seeth.
Tom slides his number behind Ryland's ear, hooking it against his glasses.
Grace is staying with Colt while he's in the area for a shoot. Colt and Tom Ryder have invited him back stage to watch the production.
Colt doesn't understand why Ryder is flirting with Grace, other than as a way to get on Colts nerves. Ryland didn't text Tom using the number he was given, instead, Tom found out Grace's number another way.
Colt is pissed, but doesn't turn in early, watching a film with Grace. Grace is reading the Martian.
The next day Colt realises he left his sunglasses back at Ryland's, so Grace pops over to drop them off and procrastinates going back to work to watch a few stunts.
Colt gets distracted at Ryder cosying up to Grace and ends up making a mistake during a stunt, mildly injuring another stunt man.
Ryder invited Grace out for drinks and swears to Colt that by the end of the night, Grace will like him back.
They go to a bar, Grace ran late due to Colt attempting to delay him by hiding his laptop. Tom s delighted to learn that Colt likes romcoms and often cries watching them. Tom enjoys listening to Grace animatedly explain science, and gives him a lift home via his driver. Grace treated the evening like a drink with friends, Tom did not.
Colt doesn't the night in the sofa waiting for Ryland's return but fell asleep. Ryland is still cross at Colts immaturity, but says he'll break contact with Tom Ryder.
Colt gets to work and informs Ryder that Grace won't be on set today as he's driving back to SF tonight. Tom's mood tanks, affecting filming, much to Jody's disappointment.

Summary
As Colt Seavers is driving to Tom Ryder's loft, he nearly hits someone on the way there. When he finally sees who he nearly hit, his world will never be the same.
Because the man he nearly hit looks exactly like him. A carbon copy, if you will.
And what does this carbon copy of Colt Seavers do when he sees him? He runs.
And maybe Colt Seavers will regret chasing his doppelganger down when a 400-pound rock spider comes to his doppelganger's rescue.
(A story where Grace and Rocky have accidentally shucked themselves into Colt Seaver's world during the movie and get unwillingly tangled within its plot.)

Reading chapter 5
Project Hail Mary is finished and Grace and Rocky have been living on Erid for a while. Rocky builds a teleporter in an attempt to get Grace home, however it brings them to The Fall Guy universe, where Grace is promptly nearly run over by Colt Seavers, making his way to Ryder's penthouse.
Colt chases after Grace when he bolts, and gets bulled over by Rocky. Grace explains where they're from and Colt immediately jumps to help them. Grace needs a job so he can buy materials for a new teleporter, so Colt offers his ID.
Sticking together, they all head to Ryder's flat then to the nightclub, where Grace and Rocky stay in the car, stepping in when they believe Colt has gone over his head. Grace insists on taking Colt back to the hotel to sleep off the spiked drink, and runs into Jody, so pretends to be Colt and apologised for Colt disappearing for a year, letting slip that Gail tricked Colt into being here and that Ryder is missing.
Rocky watches over Colt sleeping until Jody comes to the door and they have a heart to heart. Grace rushes in having seen and confirmed there's a dead body. Jody, Colt and Rocky go into the hotel room to find the body gone, so go their desperate ways to get some sleep.
Grace borrows Colt's laptop so he can program Rocky a spoken English code. Jody gets him a job as a teacher for the kids that have parents in the film crew, and uses Rocky as an animatronic for the film, doing his own stunts and everything.
Dan is told that Grace is Colts long lost twin for the moment. Grace has a blast teaching kids about static electricity and bumps into Ryder's assistant and gets Ryder's phone off of her while in the set.
Grace, Colt, Rocky, Jody and Dan meet at the karaoke bar and update each other on what's going on. Grace is suspicious on whether Tom Ryder is actually missing and instead believes Tom is hiding. That Gail is desperate to help hide what Tom did wrong, desperate enough she'd have Colt drugged and kidnapped. But maybe Grace is just projecting.
Grace, Colt and Rocky go to Ryder's loft and retrieve the code sticky note. They split up when Rocky alerts them to intruders, Colt and Rocky staying behind while Grace escapes with the phone. Before Grace gets to the car he sends a copy of the video to Jody, then gets snatched from behind.
Ryder midnight barber's Grace, who wakes up tied to a chair with zip ties. Colt interrogates Dressler, but they come to a stake mate when neither will reveal the info the others after.
Grace escapes Ryder after getting him monologuing his confession, the plan changed to Grace being framed for the murder instead of Colt.
Colt sees the gunfire over the water and intercepts Grace when he tries to dock. They crash the boat.

It should have been a perfectly safe stunt, they'd done it four times already, but something had gone wrong. So wrong, and now Jody was sitting in a hospital waiting room, waiting for an update, for some evidence that Colt was going to be ok. Waiting for Colt's twin to answer her phone calls, he always came to check in on his brother if a stunt went wrong, always.
So why wasn't he answering...

Grace assigns himself the task of explaining Project Hail Mary to the general public, after consolidating his coworkers reports, none written in layman's terms, he's realised that they've assumed the reports are for justifying further funding rather than public reassurance.
So Grace will slowly summarise them in video format, supported by a written press release. Hopefully Stratt won't object.

Ryland doesn't know where he is, what he's doing, or why he's doing it. All he knows is that he's in a universe with no stars and that an organization called the COI found the Hail Mary spinning out into deep space. He knows that Rocky may be injured somewhere, and he knows that the man that currently lays in a hospital bed in front of him should be dead as dirt but has miraculously survived.
He knows he has been given an ultimatum. Find out what brought Simon back to life or never see Rocky again.
The task proves more complicated than he thought.

362 EIC (2354) - Simon’s arrest
377 EIC (2369) - Discovery of AT-5
378 EIC (2370) - Present Day
Grace fell unconscious after the Hail Mary got caught in Adrian's gravity, to wake to being in the Iron Lung universe. Ava interrogated him, and finding out he's a Dr who breeds aliens, puts him in charge of figuring out how Simon is still alive after being retrieved from the Iron Lung.
Grace's glasses are cracked, but he hasn't suffered any burns. Simon is slowly healing, put on a cocktail of antibiotics and anti-radiation drugs. Grace will figure out Simon in exchange, Ava will not kill Rocky.
Grace has made a list of supplies he'd like from his lab, in the meantime has kept himself busy looking over Simon's heavily redacted file. Trying to figure out how he's ended up in the future in the year 378EIC. Did he fail to save the sun?
Grace tries to clean off some of the blood off of Simon, when turns round Simon wakes and begins to throttle him. He lets go when he realises Grace is mostly harmless, choosing instead to break out of the room. Grace collapses in a corner and stays there until Simon is forced back into the room, both are now locked in.
Grace wakes to Simon trying to break out again. They strike a deal, Simon will find and free Rocky, Grace will heal Simon and take them all away on the Hail Mary.
Grace's stuff arrived and he gives Simon a pot noodle as a peace offering. As they eat, Simon sets out rules, each will stick to their side of the room, no touching each other unless for medical purposes and they're not friends, and no asking what happened. Simon relaxed when Grace accepts these conditions without complaint.
Grace asks if Simon has any questions for him, Simon asks why he freaked out about learning about the rapture (Grace fainted). Grace explains that he's from the past, was on Project Hail Mary despite being a school teacher and eventually admits to having survived the coma where most of his crew did not (implying Rocky also survived the ordeal).
Ava messages Grace over the radio for an update, during which Grace hallucinates being in the Iron Lung. Grace asks for information about where and why Simon was. Ava agrees to tell him in a few days.
Simon has been stubbornly refusing IVs until he ends up vomiting blood and having another seizure. He's fitted with a black arm band to prevent him ripping the needle out again.
Grace tests the AT-Red and it comes back as a DNA match for Simon and 100s of others that are deceased. Grace hallucinates again, and concludes this is proof of God and that it wants Simon back.
Grace does further tests and finds that AT-Red can only be destroyed if the cells are separated from one another and dry out without another cell healing it. He cuts into Simon's hand to watch it heal immediately.
Simon starts drinking the rubbing alcohol. Grace breaks into the vodka. Eden is a colony on Mars that Simon doesn't want to get back to. Grace hasn't remembered that he didn't volunteer for the mission yet.
Simon and Grace both sit in the shower while drunk, Simon falling asleep against Graces shoulder, he drapes the lucky blanket over Simon.
The bald guard Abe, takes Grace to Ava. She plans to utilise AT-Red as a way for immortality for humanity, she was also infected when she retrieved Simon from the blood ocean.
Grace is allowed to see Rocky, he's in a cell in his ball. Without the laptop to translate, Grace only catches half of what Rocky says. Rocky is happy to see Grace, and that he's made a friend. Grace is dragged away, but promises that he'll get them both home.
Grace is returned to the room and crashes out. He agrees to escape with Simon, though Grace will have to do recanesance as he won't get recognised within the compound.
Grace helps Simon wash his hair. And they start to plan their escape. Grace will crawl through the vents and get to storage, retrieve as much At-Red as he can and put it on the Hail Mary. He wears a disguise, his dirtiest clothes and a lab coat, ruffling up his hair to hide the head wound from fishing.
Grace manages to get 4 years worth of AT-Red. Upon making his way back he overheard about Rocky's constant escape attempts, and that he heads for the radios every time.
Grace gets caught at the lifts, and is tasered. Upon hitting the ground he remembers booting from Stratt and being injected.

Reading chapter 8
Simon wakes up aboard the Hail Mary to a computer voice asking him questions. When he wakes properly Grace comes down to the med bay to greet him. They found Simon unconscious in the Iron Lung, with both his arms, covered in blood but without fresh wounds to explain it.
Assuming it's a hallucination the blood eel made, he grabs Grace's burnt arm and kicks him in the balls when Grace tries to block him from leaving. He makes it up to the lab before being tripped up by Rocky in his ball and then getting seized by Grace from behind, injected with a fast acting sedative.
Grace ties Simon up to prevent him from attacking them. Untying Simon when it causes him to hyperventilate. Grace and Rocky give Simon space, working on breeding the Taumoeba.
Grace gives Simon a burrito and some water, asks for info on where Simon's from in exchange he'll turn off the centrifuge so he can show Simon Tau Ceti. Simon struggles to stare at the star directly, but makes sure to press his seed medallion to the glass, all he knows about trees is that they like sunlight.
Simon admits to having been born on a space station knowns as Eden, relieved that Grace has never heard of it. Doesn't know to see Simon as dangerous. He doesn't want Grace's kindness to disappear.
Rocky starts to warm up to Simon, watching him as he sleeps in the projection room. Simon doesn't appreciate the sentiment. To diffuse the tension, Grace encourages Simon to watch Rocky sleep, the two of them sitting beside Rocky's ball, discussing why they're where they are.
After checking that Rocky is definitely asleep, admits that he was forced onto the Hail Mary, that he's a coward and a selfish person. Simon admits to being a coward for only doing as ordered. That he became a soldier at of Eden at 13 years old. Grace is horrified.
Rocky and Simon come to an understanding, Simon will try to trust that the Hail Mary is real and that Rocky isn't the blood eel. As a peace token,Simon taught Rocky how to swear, swapping equivalent by vulgarity swears, rather than by meaning.

Summary
Whatever happened here was bad. Irrevocably, inexplicably, inarticulably bad in a way that the most basal parts of his being wants nothing more than to escape from. But Grace can't turn away.
After encountering what appears to be a last hoo-ra emergency mission attempt from Earth caught up in the Hail Mary's wake, Grace and Rocky discover a single, severely injured human being quite literally encased in what Grace can only describe as a crime scene. A horror movie. And when he wakes up? He's mad. Really mad. Talking to the walls mad. Now they have to figure out just where he came from and why. Things are further complicated when all the newcomer (Simon, they learn) can talk about is missing planets, haunted oceans, and non-existent space stations. That and the really weird data they've been picking up on.
Maybe part of solving that is, much to Rocky's enthusiasm; both Grace and Simon slowly realizing how lonely they are.Series

Reading chapter 4
Grace and Rocky are in their way to Erid. Rocky has been familiarising himself with quantum physics and believes he's cone across a wormhole on his way to Tau Ceti.
A few days later, the Hail Mary alerts them to upcoming debris, keeping an eye out, Grace sees frozen blood and the ship alerts them to a new Blip-A. After much umming and arring, they decide to make the detour and come across the Iron Lung.
Grace goes out and latches the Iron Lung to the Hail Mary, Rocky builds a tunnel and they cut into the ship to find an unconscious Simon. They get him in and wait out his recovery, deeply concerned by the locked murder mystery and radiation Simon has suffered.
Simon awakens and takes issue with Armando's maths questions, and arms himself with scissors before chasing after Grace and Rocky, who lock themselves in the pilots room. Grace is concerned for brain damage from the CO2 poisoning, or that Simon also got given the French drug and is why he doesn't know about Project Hail Mary.
After talking Simon down, they guide him back to the med bay and lay out some ground rules. Arms up if the behaviour of another is negatively affecting them.
Grace returns Simons plant pendant, which he clutches to desperately, and gives Simon a pot noodle.
Simon is adamant that Earth is gone, Grace drags Simon to the cockpit to show him the stars. Simon goes catatonic.

Summary
Simon waited.
Waited for them to apologize. Tell him there’s nothing they could do. That he wasn’t worth the trouble or resources, that he wasn’t worth the time.
But that never came.
Instead, after a second Grace came back on the line, his voice sounding determined now. “Alright,” he said. “Hang tight.”
Simon blinked slowly. “What?”

Reading chapter 4
PHM and Iron Lung crossover.
Grace is on his way to Erid with Rocky, staying awake the whole way and using a stoma to ingest the coma slurry. Rocky and Grace have been bickering, bored and getting on each others nerves due to the close proximity.
Then the Hail Mary identifies Blip-D in a expanse of blank space. It's the iron lung.
Simon is slowly suffocating after following the light he senses. He felt the world shrink and stretch, ending up in zero g. The blood veins dead, but still clinging to Simon's severed arm.
Simon hears Grace over the radio and replies that he needs help before falling unconscious.
Grace and Rocky travel to the Iron Lung, build a tunnel and cut their way inside, Grace retrieving Simon and taking him to Armando to heal. They leave the Iron Lung behind, along with the black box.
After a fortnight Simon wakes to Rocky watching him sleep, and is not best pleased. Grace brings the laptops to help translate, but suspects Simon to be from another universe, one where all the stars and planets disappeared due to the Astrophage.
Simon arms himself with a needle. Grace is very sleep deprived. Grace begs Simon not to damage Armando, with Grace forcing Armando to stand down. Simon has been rapidly healing the last week.
They play 20 questions, Grace and Rocky sharing their half. Discussing why each are on the ship that they're on. Though the game comes to a standstill when Rocky asks what Fuck means. Grace dodges the question by proposing He and Simon eat breakfast. He asks Simon not telling Ricky the meaning or swears or he'll end up repeating them on loop endlessly.
Simon mourns finishing the sandwich, and begins describing the his mission in more detail. That he was unqualified, but the task was easy until the monster started attacking him.

Summary
Tim is finally back home with his family, but things are far from simple. Forced into a house of people who don't know him, Tim struggles to find his place again.
One would think he'd be used to the feeling by now.
The memories will come back eventually though...right?

Reading chapter 1
Tim goes to therapy with Dinah. With Damian back at school there's less of a buffer between himself and the rest of the Batfam, and the unfamiliarity they all have with Tim is making him tense.
Shareholders in DI are trying to pull one over while Tim's away from the office, so he's been given permission to go back to work after the weekend. He's allowed in the cave, but not out on duty.
Alfred remembers, and hugs Tim tightly upon doing so.
Previous part
While Tim disarms a time machine, Robin dies in combat.
Tim sends his consciousness back to before the time machine existed, 10, stopping the villain. Jason goes to Ethiopia, but survived and became Bluejay, wielding knuckle dusters. He messaged Talia and got her to give him to Bruce.Tim works remotely as Cardinal, only occasionally going out in costume.
Ra's and Talia are fighting for succession. Tim dealt with the Council of Spiders, fully confiding in Pru, who nicknames him little Red.
Damian was given an emergency beacon by Pru. Unbeknownst to Damian, it has a tracker that calls Cardinal. Tim communicates with Batfam through Oracle, though Batman doesn't fully trust him.
Tim's parents died abroad, and Tim took over DI as CEO at 19 with Tam as his personal assistant. While she's away in Europe, Damian has taken over her role as an internship.
Damian's noticed that Tim's a good actor, which is suspicious. Why hide your intellect and altruistic nature while also working with WE to improve Gotham.
Curious, Jason and Duke watch Tim at a gala, where Tim blackmails a socialite and purposefully drank a spiked drink. Body untrained, and full dose lethal they drive Tim back to his house. Jason carrying Tim to bed.
At work Tim fell asleep at his desk, Damian intervenes and insists Tim rest. Inviting Tim to a family meal, which Jason and Dick force. Tim got misty eyed and excused himself to a secluded bathroom in the manor. Damian overhears him stroking Titus, and escorts Tim to the front door.
Tim regrets going to the manor but he will not play god and force his family back into proximity.
Batfam have had dreams they quickly forget that involved Tim in the previous timeline. The warehouse, taking over the Robin role, Attacking Tim or finding JJ.
Batfam are investigating how Tim knows them so well, calling Damian Damian and knowing he's vegetarian. Janet was a master gossip, so current theory is he takes after her or he's telepathic.
Damian and Tim go to a DI R and D show where Damian takes great interest in their medical research especially that involving the docks effect on memory retention. Tim cuts the conference short when he spots a League Assassin.
Damian is thinking over what Tim said and what his purpose in life is. Nightwing patrols with Robin until they split up due to the League of Assassins planting a distraction.
Tim intercepts the attack fighting with Robin, Bluejay and Nightwing until the assassins retreat. With Bruce incoming, Tim bolts and holes himself up on a roof until the search for him is called off. However Nightwing ambushes him and they spar, Tim taking advantage of Dick underestimating him, sedating him.
Ra's is impressed with Damian's new guard: Cardinal.
Damian has taken the day off and Cass and Steph have returned home. Zatanna has concluded that the memories Damian has regained are his souls, and so from repeated exposure to Tim the rest of Batfam should regain their memories. Damian has made the connection between Tim and Cardinal.
Talia mourns the loss of Pru, she was a good pawn. But Damian needs to be abducted, the ceremony needs to be attempted, so she can win over the rest of the league. Cardinal will have to go.
Friendly Ambush is a go. Tim took Damian home and stayed for dinner due to the gates malfunctioning. The whole Batfam was there and let him relax before bantering.
Cass remembers everything, Jason and Steph bits and pieces.
Pru finally cracked.
Damian confronts Tim in his office. They get attacked by assassins and paralysed. Tim succumbs to his injuries getting stabbed in the spleen. Damian escapes on a bike.
Thalia reveals Tim's location. Tim is strapped down and has been given truth serum. But has now been rescued, blowing up Ra's bases.
Tim wakes in the cave and is resolute in his decisions. Dick says it was without their consent. Tim's worried they'll reject him upon remembering.
Jason starts to get his memory back specifically of Titans Tower. Seeing Jason is distress, Tim hides in the manor roof, where Jason finds him and apologises. He brings Tim down for breakfast.

Summary
"Tim rolls his eyes, feeling his lips uptick despite himself. The tightness in his chest gets worse and better all at once. He hopes they have something planned, he misses him. He hesitates, but Kon has seen him half out of his mind crazy on Fear Toxin, and he was there that time Tim lost his shit on the YJ mission a few months ago, it’s not like he can’t handle Tim being mildly anxious.
He texts back, after typing and retying it four times.
Paranoid question for you, am I alone right now?"
AKA: After Tim starts receiving little gifts, and notes, strange occurrences start happening to him. Something is watching him and it wants him. Not just him.

Reading chapter 3
Over the last 17 days Tim has been stalked. Someone leaving him gifts in his school bag, hoodie etc. First was a Fox tooth necklace, Hanukkah candle piece, notebook, jar of marshmallows, Polaroid photo of Tim and Kon on a date, and most recently a clock hand.
Tim was cleared for active duty 6 weeks after the Titans Tower incident, tensions are still high between Tim and Jason. Though Tim has been altering his body language for Bruce's sake. Tim is 16.
Kon is working at Cadmus and his TTK malfunctioned, he has a brain bleed that's to be operated on.
Someone is feeding Waylon kids, with an unusual amount of police activity in the area. Tim saved some the night before, who ran back to Red Hood for safety, so they're now working the case together(ish). Tim ignored a call from his Dad while meeting Jason.
That night, Tim came home with a bruised cheek and sprained ankle. Jack reprimanding him for how it'll reflect on himself. He insists Tim refer to Dana as Mum. Tim takes a shower, for the curtain to suddenly be pulled open.
When Tim goes to Wayne Manor after school, something trips the perimeter alarm.
Kon takes Tim to Dana's roof, Tim slipping into his room to change our if the Robin gear, then sneak down to the front door to let himself in. Jack knows about Robin, Dana doesn't. Neither know Tim's dating Kon.
Tim gets his phone confiscated for having ignored their texts and missing family dinner. Tim is sent to his room where he falls asleep in his clothes.
He "wakes" in a room with an expensive white carpet, a sofa and a little fireplace that gives off no heat. He's paralyzed, can't move, can't talk, can't cry. He is raped by a creature with pale skin, black nails and is difficult to look directly at. It closes Tim's eyes for him, not wanting Tim to cry. It's not familiar with humans (sort of), assumes everyone is supposed to bleed their first time. Likes Tim due to how close he's brushed with death before.
Tim wakes in his pyjamas having screamed everyone awake. Jake cradling him, asking if it was PTSD from being Robin. Tim can't describe what happened, too shocked, so his Dad gives up communicating. Makes Tim have a shower and tells him to sleep. He thinks he hallucinates blood running down the drain, his lower back is in pain, but he assumes it's psychosis.
Tim disassociates the school day away, when he gets to his locker there's a Polaroid of him sleeping from the night before. Bruce and Dick pick him up from school, and Tim comes clean about everything bar the dream he had.
Dick gives Tim a burner phone and Bruce gets Tim's phone off of Jack, explaining there's a stalker and that Tim will be staying at the manor for now. Jack thinks Tim faked the photos and refused to go to a safehouse. When Tim was 9 he got pneumonia, by the time his parents got back to the US he'd been discharged. They beat him with a belt, assumed he'd made it up.
Tim tells Dick about Kon having brain surgery who in turn tells The Guardian and Clark. Tim hopes Kon will forgive him, that Clark won't make things worse. Tim and Jason raid the warehouse the kids are being kept in. Tim lands badly and injuries his ankle further. Jason gets Croc to swallow a grenade.
Tim gets to bed and can't shake off sleep. He's raped in a kitchen, The Stranger his a hemaphrodite.
When Tim wakes he screams and vomits and can't calm down. Dick and Bruce don't press about what Tim dreamt. Tim is soaked in sweat, so they're taking him to the cave to run tests.
Maybe the reason Tim couldn't move us because the Death Angel connected Tim's mind to Kon's, and as Kon was probably under anaesthesia, couldn't move, translating that onto Tim.

Summary
The wind whips around, rapid, and sharp with sand and grit.
Tim can’t see—there’s so much dust trapped between his eyelids that he can hardly tell if they’re even closed or not. It burns and stings, it fills his lungs, and all he can think about is his body, buried under a new dune of sand, and his family, so many miles away, not even thinking to look for him there.And just as suddenly, the sun and sand and howling winds are gone.

In which the universe takes pity on Tim, just once, if it even was the universe at all.

Reading chapter 12
Updates 1-2 times a year. 4 or so chapters to go.
Tim is on his Bruce quest, post stab but also post spleen removal surgery. He's on his own in a desert in Ethiopia, wearing civvies,when there's a sudden sandstorm. Overwhelmed, he crouches down and is suddenly on a rooftop in Gotham.
Red Hood finds a half blind kid puking on a rooftop, that upon hearing him approach bolts and leaps off of the building. Tim looses him by hiding behind a dumpster.
Tim stashed his suit, smoke pellets and birdarangs in his cargo pants and begins the long trek to Drake Manor. Except, it's not empty, Jack and Janet are there very much alive and also child free.
Tim goes to the local reck centre to investigate. He's 6 years in the future, but a different universe where he was never born, his parents are happy. Jason still died and came back and Bruce managed to escape the time stream without a Tim there to retrieve him. Throughout Gotham there are welfare programs that Tim was in the middle of launching before his Bruce quest, fully rolled out and allowing Gotham to thrive, a whole new train system throughout the city.
Tim's eyesight gets worse, barely able to read the computer screen, so makes his way to Leslie. The waiting room is empty until Red Hood enters to retrieve Damian, causing Tim to bolt.
Annoyed, Leslie reams out Jason and Bruce, demanding they retrieve her patient. Nightwing finds Tim passed out by the reck centre.
Tim is prescribed antibiotic eye drops and pills, and Red Hood offers him a flat to recover in. Tim begrudgingly takes up the offer, waiting for the other show to drop. Jason gives him space for a week, but upon visiting Tim and gifting him a laptop to use to work for Red Hood, Tim attacks him and jumps out the window.
Tim has a knack for spotting CCTV cameras, staring straight at them when he can't dodge them. He also found and destroyed every bug that was placed in the flat, much to Jason's exasperation.
Nightwing finds Tim again by the disused bus stop and brings him to the cave. Tim is exhausted, malnourished and passes out upon Nightwing accidentally elbowing his spleenectomy wound during their scuffle.
Tim wakes in a cell in the batcave. After two weeks he finally comes clean about being from another universe and being a vigilante, being familiar with Gotham but saying that he's based out in SF, that he was in Ethiopia looking for Bruce, and that he knows everyone's secret identity. He however remains clammed up about anything else.
They give Tim a guest room and continue to question him, Tim's not sure how to prove he's from another universe without coming off as crazy. He doesn't want to be sent to Arkham.
Damian and Tim soar in the batcave, Tim forfeiting when he talks too much about Damian's proclivity for swords. He notices a lack of blood stains on the mats.
Tim cleans the kitchen with Alfred, and upon confirming that he's not allowed to leave, due to being a danger to them, explodes about having been Robin. Jason confronts Tim about this, that it's unacceptable to shout at Alfred when he's just trying to help, and that he shouldn't have lied about being Robin, that he's too scrawny to possibly be.
Jason lets Tim onto some cases on the Batcomputer, and is pensive when he sees Tim's familiarity with their organisation system. Tim opens up the case on the meta trafficking ring the JL have been investigating for the last 6 months.
Jason staunchly doesn't believe Tim is from another reality, Bruce is doubtful if memory manipulation as complex as this, Dick believes Tim. No one believes that Bruce would take on another Robin after Jason's death. Jason's gonna prove that Tim is lying.
Each of the bats takes turns babysitting Tim. Damian takes Tim and Titus out for a walk, and apologises for having pressed Tim for information on his alternate dimensions self.
They can all tell that Tim is terrified of Jason and very cautious around Damian, so are trying to balance babysitting Tim and giving him space.
Damian and Tim are on come, it's a quiet night. There is no 2nd Batmobile, everyone goes out on bikes and the Batmobile is purely used for retrieval. No Redbird in this universe either.

Summary
"I came back because…I didn't have any other option. There was nothing left for me there.” No one. Not a single soul. Just Tim, somehow still left. He doesn't know why he's the one who survived. “Nothing—nothing really left at all. The whole planet was a wasteland as far as we could tell."
-- --
Tim's world ends. He tries to go back to fix it, but that means seeing everyone he loves alive again and dealing with the lack of recognition in their eyes.Bookmarked by Mutini4

Reading chapter 4
Gotham was bombed, the aftershock caused flooding in the cave where Tim and Jason bunkered down. The world became a barren dessert, everyone dead. Jason died last, and Tim, desperate, travelled back in time to save them.
Except, he's travelled dimensions as well. There's subtle differences.
After not sleeping for over 3 days Tim, barely stops Joker from paralyzing Barbara, attacking the Joker at her door. Refusing treatment, he goes onto Metropolis to contact Clarke about Cadmus.
Lois answers the door and let's Alvin Draper inside, ushering Jon to his room. Tim falls asleep at the kitchen counter, and startles awake when Clarke puts a blanket on Tim's shoulders. Delirious, Tim spills about who he is, where he's from and begs them to help Kon-El.
Tim stays in their flat, sleeping for 3 days and finally waking to find Kon rescued and staying with Clarke and Lois.
Tim moves on back to Gotham. He can't stay away, but also can't bare to be near. Tim breaks into the clocktower, but when a blizzard blows in ends up sealing refuge in Rowe Park at one of Ivy's greenhouses. Except it's not empty.
Ivy recognises Tim as her sprout. Tim in this universe came across an Ivy Vs Batman fight while younger and was caught by her. He would sneak into Arkham often to visit her, and go to her greenhouses to water her plants. Ivy uses a truth pollen to find out who this Tim is. She knows who Batman is already, so recognises the significance of Tim's hyphenated surname.
Tim makes a hideout in Amusement Mile, in an abandoned garage. He's cone across a large hammer stashed nearby.
Another difference in the dimensions, is Jason is still alive and small Tim is missing. Breaking into Drake Manor, Tim finds out that Small Tim and Jason are friends at Gotham Academy, in the same year due to Tim's skipped grades.
Small Tim is in Ethiopia, likely investigating Sheila while Jason is investigating Shiva. Most likely having been told by Jason what he planned to do and going against Jason's wishes by secretly following Jason.
Tim goes to Wayne Manor to warn Bruce. Breaking down upon seeing Alfred, who died before the war, deeply missing him. Alfred had been forwarded about Tim by Clarke. He tells Alfred everything, just about fighting down the panic attack. It resurfaces when Bruce returns from work. Tim leaves after informing Bruce not to trust Sheila and to never leave Jason alone in her presence.
Tim breaks into Arkham to reassure himself that Joker is still locked up there, cannot possibly be in Ethiopia. Tim uses a knife to Jokers spine to paralyze him from the neck down, not truly caring if he survives the procedure.
Tim doesn't remember the trek back to his hideout. Just comes to in a corner of the room with Barbara crouched by his side, reciting the periodic table, patiently awaiting Tim becoming lucid. She knows what he did and has no plans to prove it nor pursue him for it.
Barbara's going to treat Tim to lunch.
