Summary
He wakes up in a hotel room with no memory of who he is, why he’s here, or what he’s meant to be doing. All he’s got is an empty wallet, twenty-something voices arguing in his head, and a woman called Pru who insists she can help him get his memories back if he trusts her.
This is so not disco.
(Or: Tim gets amnesia during BruceQuest, and goes on the worst backpacking trip through Europe in history. Featuring Tim as Harry Du Bois, and Pru as the world's most reluctant Kim Kitsuragi.)

Summary
Jason walks into Titans Tower expecting a fight and the satisfaction of beating down the new Robin.
He walks into a suicide instead.
(After multiple back-to-back missions, urgent reports that needed to be filled out, and the stress of a new hostile player in Gotham, sleep has not come easily for Tim. Fortunately for him however, his inability to die has given him a unique, but effective, way of dealing with insomnia.
Unfortunately for everyone else, Jason decides to invade the Titan Tower at the exact same time.)

Right now his room and the hallways are safe.
They will not remain that way.

Summary
The book is an old, yellowed thing, with a lurid cover more fitting of a pulp romance novel than a harbinger of despair. A mannequin with a blank face and the barest hint of a smile dips a woman in a ball gown. There are strings wrapped around her wrists. She looks like she’s smiling too, eyes shining at the reader.
She isn’t. There is terror in her eyes. She is crying, begging the reader for help.
And Tim knows without a doubt that Jason is holding a bomb.

Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

Summary
Hornet never thought she could call the days of the infection ‘simple’, but her siblings so loved to complicate things, didn’t they? Of course, she’d never have it any other way. Even if it did mean she was a child again.
(In a desperate attempt to escape defeat, the Radiance tries to flee through time itself. Ghost follows, taking Hornet along for the ride. But they can’t very well leave Hollow behind either now, can they?
In which Hollow causes an international incident, Hornet wants to throttle someone, and Ghost discovers that punching the Pale King is way better when he’s actually alive.)

Summary
All in all, Hornet was... content. The infection was gone, she had her siblings by her side, and Hallownest was flourishing back into the kingdom she had once known.
It was easy to find joy in the comfort of 'after'.

Summary
It's ironic, he thinks, that life only started to make sense after he had died.
Eridan Ampora is adrift with guilt and betrayal, plagued with a conflicting sense of superiority and self-hatred, when he stumbles into Damara Megido.
It's the best thing that's ever happened to him.

Summary
They are trapped in a never-ending play, acting out the same roles over and over in the vague hopes that somehow, someday it will end. But it doesn't. So they deviate from the script, attempt to fulfill the purpose that brought them to the mountain in the first place in a last attempt to break free from the resets.
It doesn't work.
(But beneath their feet, the stage has begun to crack. After all, suicide is a pretty memorable thing, and emotions may just be a little bit stronger than memories.
Especially to the person who finds their dead body.) -
