    Summary

    Six months ago, Jason Todd and Tim Drake disappeared without a trace. Their family has been worried sick about them, but to their relief, the two middle children return abruptly and...unharmed?

    It is quickly discovered that the two are not the same boys anymore. They're closer (since when did they openly just hug each other like that), much better more vicious at fighting (concerningly so), and...wait...why do they have dinosaurs? Why did Tim just kill Jason!? What is going on, and what are the consequences of their mysterious journey? Will Gotham ever be the same?

    Or:

    Jason and Tim get transported to the start of the ARK: Survival Evolved and had to battle through each world to get back home. The video game vibes don't go away, and they make it literally everyone's problem. They don't need "help" or "therapy", but they're pretty sure the rest of the family does. All that Jason and Tim are game for is raining their unique brand of chaos and fun onto Gotham's unsuspecting populations, consequences be damned. It's not their fault that Bruce is crying and Dick looks about one wrong move away from growing gray hairs. Get with the program!

    Summary

    “Stealing isn’t good.” Tim stuffed a fry in his mouth,

    “Breaking and entering isn’t either.” Hood added, “And you just did both.”

    “You’re literally a murderer.”

    “Serial murderer.” Nightwing corrected,

    Tim squinted at them, “Oh, my bad. That makes it so much better.”

    Or

    Tim is born with the ability to see and communicate with the dead. It’s both a blessing and a curse.

    Summary

    After three years away from Gotham and the Batfamily, Tim Drake is back—and he’s not the same. Now operating once again as Red Robin, Tim returns older, sharper, and carrying more secrets than ever before.

    As he steps into a leadership role within Wayne Enterprises’ R&D division, he also begins re-integrating into the Batfamily. But when a new case erupts on Gotham’s streets, it leads Tim down a path that intersects with his past… and the League of Assassins. What exactly happened during his years away? And why does it seem like he’s brought the war back with him? Or for someone?

    Summary

    The dead greet the living.
    We are those who wait at the end of all existence. We are those whose outstretched palm grasps infinity. We are the unchanging conclusion. We are your reflection and your foil.
    You are the infant, new from the cradle. You are they who sit upon our palm. You are the delicate assembly of experience and change. You are the unfolding entropy.
    We greet you on the knife’s-edge of the Balance that you have broken. We seek that which you have taken and sundered. We reach, now, from within that palm, to correct your blind fumbling.
    Summon your counsel. Await our arrival.

    The comms were silent. The snowing sensation had resolved within Tim’s mind but it was still there, a banked presence that he could reach for, and when he did, he heard the message again. His breathing came faster and harder.
    Jason was the first to react.
    “What the fuck?”

    ***

    Or,

    The Justice League has missed something catastrophic and tragic in equal measure.

    Good thing this is just the sort of mystery Red Robin likes to sink his claws into.

    Summary

    “I am not here to give you flattery or gentle words; I am here to address the near-irreparable harm that has been enacted in the name of ignorance and fear. Together, we are here to unveil the Embassy which will, I earnestly hope, be the first step in repairing that harm. This path may be difficult and its steps treacherous,” Daniel paused, “but we will walk it together. For the good of the We-Who-Are-Infinite as much as for you, One-Among-Many.”

    “Now,” and here his smile turned wide and wry, his hands rising in front of him as if to cup the air, “I give to you our Embassy.”

    His cupped hands fell open in a gesture like a blooming lotus.

    The camera flickered and then - there was, in truth, the Embassy.

    ***
    or,

    Nothing is as simple as a single rescue, and nothing is without consequence. Red Robin learns as much when he is roped into an ambassadorship for the Living. If he's lucky, he'll navigate the politics, raids, and even social media - and land himself a diplomatically fraught boyfriend while he's at it.

    Summary

    There is a Russian phrase, Перед смертью не надышишься, or ‘you cannot breathe enough before death’. Tim wished he could tell you it was a cool idiom, but it was not. Although, Tim had always found the phrasing interesting even if it had a different meaning.

    Because it was true, no amount of breathing could stop death from coming.

    Summary

    Jason never takes orders—especially not from Tim Drake. At least, that’s what he tells himself. But when a mission goes sideways and Tim steps in with chilling precision, Jason finds himself following commands he didn’t know he craved. Back at the safehouse, a teasing remark turns into something far more dangerous when Tim pins him to the wall and whispers, “You have no idea.”

    Summary

    “You will do more than just survive, Timothy Drake.” Z stated, “I will make you something, something better.”

    “I don’t need to survive” Tim argued hollowly, “I need to find him and I don’t know how.”

    “Then we will help,” Z stared at him, dark skin gleaming under the torch-light, “and we will do whatever it takes to do so. That is our order.”

    “You’re ours,” Pru agreed, “at least, for now.”

    Owens grinned, “Welcome to the League of Assassins, Tim.”

    Death is something no one can escape, especially Tim, who was born with the ability to see the dead. Now, he’s on a mission to find his foster father, Bruce Wayne, who’s assumed dead. But death never strays far and Ra’s Al Ghul is nipping at his heels.

    Summary

    “I’m going to kick your ass,” Jason threatens. “Creeper.”

    This kind of threat usually works. Jason’s gotten very good at it over the years. At the very least, it makes the target reconsider their choices.

    The Replacement does not look like he’s reconsidering anything. In fact, he looks a little pitying. “Right now, you have the constitution of a wet tissue. I don’t even think you could stand up without passing out.”

    He says this so evenly and plainly that Jason is automatically furious. Just to prove Replacement’s scrawny little ass wrong, he is going to stand up, beat his ass into the ground, and then kill everyone in Crime Alley who has ever wronged him. The list is long. It’ll probably last the whole night.

    The fact that he only gets up to his knees before everything goes black is, like. A minor setback.

    ***

    Jason Todd is about to find out why hundred and four degree fevers are, generally, considered detrimental to one's well-being. Tim Drake is about to commit crimes against Top Ramen and humanity. Bruce Wayne is about to fret. What else do you expect?

    Summary

    This should be a dream. This is what Tim thinks about, in the back of his mind, during stakeouts that drag on too long. Something saccharine and domestic. Carding his hands through Jason’s hair, teasing him about the way his roots are growing in. Kissing Jason slow and soft, giggling as the cat they adopted starts kneading Tim's leg.

    Yeah, that's right - he's down so abysmally, terribly bad for a straight guy that he's already decided what they would name the hypothetical cat they hypothetically adopt in their hypothetical house.

    It should be a dream. Jason, in his townhouse, cooking him dinner. Instead, his eyes dart to the window as he calculates how fast he’d have to move to get away cleanly.

    Summary

    Jason is stuck on a gargoyle with a glitching HUD and a bad attitude when Tim Drake drops by with a solution. The choice is simple. He can keep hitting his helmet and walk into a trap or he can take the drive and admit the Replacement might be useful. Survival wins out over pride.
