Summary
If you asked Jason how he felt about Tim’s soulmate he would say he hated the bastard. If he was being honest he didn’t know much about the guy at all, no one did not really. But Jason didn’t need to know who he was to hate his guts. If the guy ever got his head out of his ass and finally realized that Tim was very much a wonderful person to be around, Jason was sure that the first thing he’d do upon finding out his identity would be to sock him in the face.
AKA Jason and Tim are soulmates in a world where when you realize your in love with your soulmate your timer goes off. Tim realizes first, Jason falls harder.

Operation: figuring this shit out
Subject: Tim Drake and Conner Kent
Situation:
I don't feel well about that Superboy guy. He brings out weird feelings in me, which I cannot find a word for. I want to find out what those feelings are, where they come from, and what they can lead to.
---Tim Drake has always had a weird, indescribable feeling about Superboy, which led him to put up walls between the two of them before they even got to know each other. He was totally fine up until Dick decided the best idea of all time was to become best friends with Conner, distracting Tim incredibly now that the feeling is back in full force, nagging him constantly. However, Tim is Bruce's kid: of course he has a plan up his sleeve to deal with this one of a kind situation...
or,
Tim's fucking autistic and can't tell he's been crushing on Superboy ever since he's met him, and decides to lead an entire, very misleading inquiry to understand himself, which Kon happily puts up with -

Summary
“I love you too, Tim,” he said, his voice thick with a decade of unspoken emotion, with ten months of silent, desperate prayer.
“That’s what I was going to tell you the second I got back. That was the plan. That was the only thing that kept me going in that place. The thought of coming home… to you.”

Summary
It should have been fun and easy, Young Justice back together again even if Tim was Red Robin rather than Robin now. They were only chasing a weak magician, but they didn't know enough about what he was after. The Staff of the Oneiroi was far more powerful than they imagined and soon half of the team was down, asleep and nothing would wake them.
Danny was given an interesting proposal. Help Nocturn retrieve some mystical item from the living realm, a version of Earth with no anti-ecto acts or GIW. Clockwork surprisingly agreed it was a good idea, the object too powerful to be left with the living. Why was it always him being sent to find things?

Summary
"Oh my god, I need you to be my boyfriend immediately," Jason blurts out. He hears choking or what might be someone's best imitation of a cat being strangled, but ignores it. He drags his eyes away from the shelves of curated Batman memorabilia to look Tim dead in the eye. "I need you so fucking bad."
"W-what?!" Tim says, cheeks tinged pink.
It’s like Christmas has come three weeks early. For the first time since coming up with this half-hatched plan, Jason isn't stuck on worrying whether it'll work—he's thinking about how much fun it'll be when the guy he brings home can't stop talking about superheroes. To his superhero family. While his superhero family hides their superhero business right under Tim's non-superhero nose.
Jason fucking loves a good comedy.
Well, damn, Jay. It's a good thing Tim does too.

Summary
“...Thank you, Drake. For letting me stay here.” His tone was the softest the older vigilante had ever heard. “I’m at a loss of what to do…and what to believe in. I do not understand what I’m fighting for anymore.”
Tim’s blue eyes softened as he approached Damian and laid a hand on his shoulder.
“Hey…it’s okay. It’s okay to be confused and lost. I’ve felt like that so many times, I get it,” he spoke gently. “I know things are crazy right now, but at least we’ve got each other. We’ll stop Bruce’s rampage and help him. Together.”
At this, he finally gave in to his secret desire and wound his arms around the boy, hugging him for a second time that day. Except it felt much better this time because they weren’t soaking in the rain and Damian returned the embrace as he slowly raised his hands and clutched the back of Tim’s shirt. They stayed like that for a quiet moment, long enough for Tim to be acutely aware of his racing heartbeat the more he reveled in Damian’s warmth and how perfectly he fit in his arms.
He suddenly wanted Baby Bat to stay here forever and extracted himself from the hug before he could say or do something stupidly embarrassing.

Summary
“He left me.” A choked sob left his throat as the raindrops mixed in with the tears running down his face. “Why did—why did—”
Damian couldn’t finish the sentence. He’d done everything, stayed by Bruce’s side even when it seemed like the entire world was against his father. Was that…was that still not enough?
What did he have to do for Bruce to stop abandoning him?
