  Summary

  ____

  Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
  A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.

  But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
  Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.

  Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
  Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"

  They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.

  Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.
