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.

Whumptober day 3!!
“I look in people’s windows, transfixed by rose golden glows”
---
Christmas was more than just a time of community for Gotham, it was more than just a reminder that Gotham would not be defeated by its mindless violence. It was a sacred time, carved out by his parent’s promise to return home to see him for the holidays.
At the thought of his parents returning, a smile broke out across his face as childish excitement filled his body. It had been quite a long time since he had seen his parents.
or
Tim loves Christmas because it means the promise his parents will come home and he gets to watch as the loving communities that come together during the holidays finally meets his own home. However, as Christmas arrives he gets a phone call that makes him question how much his parents value their promise, as he's left alone in his dark home for Christmas.

Summary
Many had claimed that Batman would show up when there was a particularly out of control dumpster fire and help put it out.
So obviously, Batman was summoned by fire.
“Then why don’t you start a fire, and we’ll see if he shows up.” Micheal said with a smile, which only grew at the whispers from the other kids standing around, “In fact,” He continued, “I double dog dare you.”
OR:
Tim's pants do, in fact, catch on fire

Summary
When Tim Drake finally manages to convince a reluctant Bruce Wayne to let him don the infamous red, yellow, and green Robin suit, he is ecstatic. So what if their relationship is strained at best, and borderline toxic at worst? It accomplishes what Tim set out to do, which was to dial back the anger-fueled vengeance Bruce had been unleashing on Gotham after Jason Todd's unfortunate death. If he can channel that anger against him to reduce casualties on the streets, he's more than willing to accept the risk for the sake of the public. Unfortunately, the world has other plans, and when poor Tim is gassed with fear toxin in an abandoned warehouse, the feelings Bruce has been trying to choke down come to light in full surge.
Or, Tim gets dosed with fear toxin, and Bruce is left to pick up the pieces. A sequel to Have You Heard? (About The Flightless Birds?) But from Bruce's point of view. Don't need to read the first one to read this one.

Summary
The Lazarus Pit always takes something from its victims. Usually, it's sanity, memories, emotional regulation, or a combination of the three. It doesn't often take a person's humanity and warp their body beyond recognition.
Seems like Jason Todd is the (un)lucky winner of such an opportunity! When the teenager wakes to a second chance at life, he is forced to live in the body of a monster. Yay!
To survive, he must uncover the limits and powers his new form holds, all while trying to avoid unwanted attention. When he returns home, things only get more difficult. His family actively hunts him, people are terrified by his very presence, and rogues try to catch him for their own uses.People fear what they don't understand. Villains hate what they can't control. Vigilantes detain what they think is dangerous.
There is no place for inhuman monsters in Gotham, but surviving by yourself is lonely. Maybe taking Batman's new little bird under his wing will help somehow?
OR
The one where Jason gets turned into an animalistic cryptid and has to survive Gotham being...well Gotham. Oh, Tim's there too. He's sad, but he thinks that having a cryptid best friend would be pretty cool.

Summary
***PODFIC***
It was easy to figure out that Jason Todd was the Red Hood and even easier to figure out what came next.Jason wasn’t really doing much to hide his plans—Tim could see how he hated the Bats and could hear every comment he made about the newest Robin and it was obvious he was planning something.
The guns on his hips didn’t leave him much doubt as to what those plans were.
The hard part was coming to terms with it.
The hard part was looking himself in the mirror and knowing he was living on borrowed time. It was going out each night looking for a red helmet, only ever seeing it hidden in shadows behind him—always watching, always waiting. It was staring at his laundry basket and wondering if he should take care of that or if he’d have a bullet in his skull before he could move it to the dryer.
- - -
Tim figures out that Jason is going to kill him so he can take back his rightful place and join the family again.
He decides to do the only reasonable thing and minimize the fallout of his death before it occurs.
According to Jason, this is the wrong thing to do.

Summary
Tim chocó con otro chico (o más bien una bestia) a la salida del campus por su prisa en llegar a casa a tiempo para la Gala Anual Benéfica de los Wayne, porque era la persona con peor suerte del mundo. O no, porque, por Dios, ese hombre era la fantasía sexual andante de Tim. Su tipo perfecto.
—Lo siento mucho. De verdad, lo lamento muchísimo, iba con prisas y no estaba mirando por dónde iba. Lo cual no es excusa, pero aun así…—No pasa nada, yo me he parado de la nada, así que también es culpa mía. Déjame ayudarte—dijo, con la voz más grave y, francamente, sexy que Tim había oído en su vida.
Oh, joder, oh, joder, oh, joder, joder, joderjoderjoder…
Tim no podía estar teniendo una erección solo porque un hombre enorme tuviera una voz sexy. No podía estarle pasando esto en ese momento, el universo le odiaba, pero ¡venga ya! ¡No podía odiarle tanto!
O: Tim Drake encuentra a un hombre sacado directamente de su mayor fantasía sexual y luego descubre que su fantasía sexual andante es Jason Todd-Wayne, el chico por el que ha suspirado media vida.

Summary
Batman will never admit it, but he did need another Robin. He required the happiness a child brought to his life, both inside and outside the mask. Since the death of his second son, Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne's life had been spiraling deeper into depression and pain, clouding his judgment. He was convinced that little Tim Drake, who lives next door, is nothing but a hindrance to him and will only get himself killed, just like Jason. So he pushes his new Robin away, holds him at arm's length, and refuses to allow himself to care again in a desperate attempt to save himself the heartbreak. That is, until his little bird gets gassed by fear toxin in an old warehouse, and it's revealed Tim's greatest fear is none other than Batman. It shouldn't have taken this much for Bruce to realize he does care, more than his heart can take, but better late than never, right?
Or, Tim finds him self under the influence of fear toxin and doesn't handle it as well as he hoped. Tim's POV

Summary
"What's.. What.. How's this going to happen." Tim was uncertain with his words. He knew he was going to die, that's what his hero wanted and that's what he was going to get. But how? That was the question. Was Jason going to drag it out? Kill him now?
"We're going to go to my safe house, I've got a room set up for you, and we're going to have some fun, then, when I'm bored, i'll put you out of your misery. But first you need get a fucking grip and walk to my car."
Okay, torture it was. He could hold out a few days. As long as Jason enjoyed himself Tim would accept his fate.
Or
A divergence on Jasons attack on Titans tower. I plan to make this a enemy to caretaker series. Jason is more effected by pit madness in this.
This story has been revised and rewritten. Some scenes have changed and others have been added. I am happier with this fic now. I will also hopefully be able to get motivation to write the sequal.

Summary
Tim Drake is trying to get along with his father for his deceased mother's sake.
But Jack Drake has bought into some new age cult led by Daniel Maris who believes that a disease will come to Gotham and purge it of sinners. And forcibly relocates them both to some apartment tower complex downtown called Babylon. Which promptly locks down. No one in or out.
This makes everything about being Robin much more difficult.
But Tim is diligent and nothing if not an over-achiever.
Soon, a horrifying sickness hits Gotham, and Tim is doing everything he can to not get sick.
Ultimately, it does not matter how careful you are, the clench will get you. Tim tries his best not to let it kill him.
