Summary
"I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go back to sleep. When you need to worry, I'll tell you."
"Heh." Ryland ran his hand down his face. "It's terrible you know that it actually makes me feel better. What would I do without you?"
"Explode at a colleague at a conference and get expelled from academia and become a middle school teacher." Eva said, promptly.
"Wow, you've thought about that way too hard." Ryland laughed. "Middle schoolers might not vape in class, though. Maybe I should switch."
"Let's not joke."

Summary
The Sokovia Accords were supposed to leash the Avengers. Instead, they gave Eva Stratt a shopping list for the end of the world.
Fresh off the bleeding edge of Siberia, a broken Tony Stark discovers the sun is dying—and that Stratt has weaponized his stolen genetic records in an attempt to draft him for a four-year, one-way suicide mission into the dark. At the Compound alongside Dr. Ryland Grace, a rumpled junior high science teacher who just figured out how the solar parasite breeds, Tony is forced into a chaotic partnership over volatile space sludge.
To Stratt, sacrificing three lives to save seven billion is basic math. To Tony Stark, a one-way ticket isn't a tragic necessity—it’s just a design flaw. It’s time to break the rules, rewrite the physics, and make damn sure the universe's most expensive floating coffin gets a steering wheel.
And he, and Doctor Ryland Grace, would not be taking it.

Summary
Bad dreams suck. Grace wakes up from a nightmare of being on the Hail Mary, which is utterly impossible, but his throat hurts like he really did have a tube pulled out of it.
Turns out, he wasn't the only one to have that dream. Which was even more impossible than him actually being on a ship that's not even fully built.
aka A movie react fic where everyone sees the film in dreams.

Summary
Mindy Park is rapidly realising that the first intelligent extraterrestrial to make contact with the human race thinks they’re fucking stupid. She’s pretty sure that Dr Grace isn’t accurately translating half the things Rocky is saying, but most of what he is telling her is that Rocky has a better way of doing what NASA wants them to do, and honestly, it seems like Rocky is mostly right. She probably doesn’t want to know what the other half of what Grace’s new alien friend is saying, if the things that are making it through what she’s calling the “middle school teacher filter” are “why would you do something the dumb way when you could do it the right way”.
or,
Mindy has a headache, Grace has trauma, Mark is confused and Rocky is wondering how humans made it in to space when they're all so, so dumb.

Summary
Sometimes, Tim isn’t sure he’s real.
Tim isn’t sure when he started altering his appearance. Maybe he always knew how to do it. Maybe he learned how watching his mother in front of the vanity in her room, blue silk dressing gown wrapped tightly around brittle bones as she peered critically at her reflection, widening her irises ever so slightly, narrowing the bridge of her nose.
A good transformation, she’d told him once, is not over exaggerated, or particularly striking. It must appear completely natural at all times, or the trick is ruined. The game is up.
Tim’s nose is a little crooked. He doesn’t remember how long it’s been that way.

Summary
He doesn’t understand, or doesn’t want to. They aren’t looking for him. They aren’t even crying, his mother is clearly more concerned with how his disappearance will look than the fact that he’s—he’s gone, they left him in a sinking car—his chest is rising and falling quickly, and he wonders distantly if the drowning was just a little slow to catch up.

Summary
Bruce Wayne knows that trust is a rare currency in Gotham. Cynicism is the natural state of things for the world’s greatest detective. But after rescuing Gotham’s kidnapped deputy mayor from the Joker, Bruce has to come to terms with the fact that there are other people in the city just as stubbornly committed to saving it as he is— and that they can be trusted to make the right calls. Mallory Stone, attorney-at-law and eternally annoyed with Bruce Wayne's playboy antics, is one of those people.
Working with her as Batman to untangle the bloody web of the Court of Owls should be easy— it was supposed to be just one investigation, one lead, one clean ending to a story that never should have begun. But genres are slowly getting mixed, feelings are growing messy, and Mal is getting a headache. Who the hell signed them up for a political thriller? A detective story? A comedy of errors? A fantasy? A romance? Not Mal, and certainly not Bruce— but they’ll have to live through it anyway.
or;
Mallory Stone is the first politician that Bruce Wayne knows is honest. It's a shame that she hates his guts.

Summary
"What did you throw at him?"
"A week of a now wasted experiment," the child grumbles, flipping a small container over in his hand, "father will be most displeased."

Tim sputters.
"You threw a bee at him?"

He is halfway home, later, when he realizes.
Batman and Robin have been facing off against some sort of meta criminal who can control bees.
The kid who keeps bees in his backpack is Damian Wayne.

Summary
“I want to stay here,” Tim says, his voice so soft Stephen almost thought he’d imagined it. “With Peter. With you. I feel like I can — breathe, here.”
Strange nods once. “Then stay.”
Tim’s head jerks slightly, startled. “What?”
“Stay.” His tone doesn’t waver. “You’ll go back when you need to. When you choose to. Not before. Until then… this is home.”

Summary
At fourteen, Tim Drake is no stranger to loneliness. But when his parents die in a plane crash, and a will reveals that Bruce Wayne is his biological father, he’s dropped into a world of vigilantes, legacy, and disappointment. Bruce, caught off-guard and not ready for more family, keeps his distance.
Tim doesn’t push. He’s used to being a shadow.
But shadows notice things. They listen. They help. And while Bruce avoids his newest son, Alfred brings him in—gently, steadfastly, and without question. Tim finds belonging not in the Cave, but in quiet acts of care. In warm mugs of milk. In folded laundry. In the faint scent of his grandmother’s perfume still lingering in the halls.
Bruce may not be ready yet. But Tim is already home.

Summary
Before Batman, before Robin, Tim's life had already had its share of defining moments. The Grayson's fall, yes, but not only. It's only a few years after their deaths that he stumbles on his first book.
By then, Leitner has already become another name for evil.
