    Summary

    Jason Todd runs Second Rise Bakery—a cosy Gotham storefront with incredible pastries and a persistent ghost problem. Every week, new dead kids show up in the walk-in freezer, asking for cinnamon rolls and justice. Jason—who can see ghosts, don’t ask—is secretly solving their murders, one croissant at a time. The police think he’s insane. The Batfamily thinks he’s stress-baking again.

    Enter Tim Drake, barista from the coffee shop next door. He's nosy, too observant, and way too into Jason’s murder board. Also? He’s kinda hot when he's holding a milk frother and interrogating a ghost.

    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.
    (My take on the surprisingly common “Tim Drake finds himself in a different universe” trope.)

    Summary

    Beneath Gotham there is something. Anyone who spends time with their feet on the ground can tell you that much. At the surface level it's goons and scared street kids. Beneath them are the sewers, haunted by endless appetites and the scraping of hide against stone. Beneath that is glowing green, craving warmth of blood and rage, hunting for its host. And even further beneath that is something other.

    Above Gotham there is something. Anyone who spends time in the city can tell you that much. In the shadows of tall buildings or on outcrops of stone there was movement. Flashes of color or shadows taken form. Ever watchful eyes following the movement of the cities beating heart.

    Some feared what was above, some feared what was below. But for one... well one craved both.
