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?)

Hey there ghosts it’s me, ya Robin by SummerBummin

Summary
Jason’s mind was reeling. “Someone can see us?”
He’d tried everything he could think of to get Bruce and Alfred’s attention since he became a ghost. But even physically floating through their bodies hadn’t elicited a response.
She laughed. “Crazy, ain’t it? I don’t know if he’s a meta or what, but all the ghosts are talking about him.”
If there was someone out there who could see ghosts… then maybe…
Jason had to find him. “Who is he?”
“He’s known by many names… Veil Walker… Reaper… Half-Pint.”
Jason sputtered. “Half-Pint??”
“That’s the wildest shit. It’s a kid. Like a middle schooler.” Delilah threw out one of her hands. “And he’s out here wandering Gotham every night and chatting up the dead.”
Jason could only stare at her. Processing. A kid who could see ghosts... What was this? The Sixth Sense: Gotham edition??
———
Jason was murdered by the Joker. Tim can see the dead. They find each other.

Summary
When Flame decided to become a hero, he knew it would come at a price. Starting over on his own, after hitting rock bottom, would be his hardest battle yet. The worst loss wasn’t anything material, though. It wasn’t giving up his name, his sword, his everything, to have his identity revealed and criminal record expunged so he could be given a clean slate.
No, the worst part was the people he left behind. People he would never be able to save, hero or otherwise.
A hand clamped over his mouth, smothering an instinctual shout and yanking him back.
“Don’t scream. I’ve got enough energy stockpiled to blow this whole building up. I’m sure you’ll survive, but all those civilians you care so much about now– Eh, they might not be so lucky.”
Slowly, with no sharp movements, Flame looked over his shoulder. He just had to be sure this was who he thought it was.
Wemmbu smiled. “Let’s talk, bro.”
Really great. Especially since the last time he saw Wemmbu, he had almost died.
Or: Imperial Fire Hero AU Angst. Flame’s past comes back to haunt him

Summary
Dr. Ivo Robontik was what one might call many things, but one of them was not stupid.
(There was no way he fell for the same trick twice. There’s no way he was going to be-left here to die again-)
But denying the truth as it spat him in the face, an angry robot that won't stop hating, metal healing over like a scab wound?
He wasn't stupid. He was just good at focusing on what mattered.

Summary
“We have to…” Shadow said between kisses, “stop the cannon.”
“One more,” Sonic requested and kissed Shadow one dozen more times.
“Sonic, please,” Shadow begged. Sonic wished he was begging for more and not for them to stop. Still, even as he pleaded, he was pressing more kisses to Sonic’s neck.
“Okay, okay,” he acquiesced unhappily. He’d kiss Shadow more, and soon, once this was done. “Let’s kick that ugly thing out of the sky.”

Shadow falls.

Summary
Sonic was a king once, but that was another lifetime ago... until his beloved knights come in need of aid.
__________________It has been years since Sonic left behind the realm of Camelot and tried to resettle in his own world, his own time. Here, he is the world's fearless hero, Eggman's arch enemy, and a lover of fresh chilidogs. He takes orders from no one, and no one takes orders from him, though remnants of his time have changed him...
However, Sonic's past adventure returns as three of his best knights arrive in his world. Stranded in an unfamiliar land and their sacred swords missing, Sonic must once more don the persona of King Arthur to assist them in their search for the missing weapons and get them home. With Tails and Shadow at their side, the knights and king set out across the isle of Londoon and beyond, exploring the remnants of a lost kingdom and uncovering secrets long since buried beneath the soil...

It starts off as a job. Get the kid and deliver him to Eggman. But dealing with the kid and the fallout is not nearly as simple.
Scourge has always looked out for number one. Ironic then, that it's the smallest of Sonics that begins to change that.
