A species of viper. Previously, the venom of said viper was not thought to be particularly dangerous. This misconception has been corrected in the recent years of study revealing that the venom of this ambush predator can cause severe hemorrhaging of internal organs.Series

Summary
“Then why the fuck did you flinch away from me? Tim you don't need to protect me, if you're still uncomfortable at being around me then I should know, hell, B and N should know!"
"This isn't about you!" Tim rarely ever raised his voice like this, but Jason just wasn't listening, no matter what Tim said and Tim needed him to just listen.
"Well, who the fuck is it about then?"
"Ra's!"
Tim flinches away from Jason when he accidentally startles him. Jason thinks Tim is still scared of him, but the truth is much darker.

Too Young for Ghosts by Amaranthine_Nostalgia
Fandom: Batman - All Media Types, Red Hood and the Outlaws (Comics), Red Robin (Comics)
04 Oct 2025
Summary
Jason Todd wasn’t meant to come back—not whole, not right, and certainly not for anyone.
But grief clings like smoke, and some ghosts are loved too fiercely to stay dead.Tim Drake is twelve years old when he finds him.
Too small. Too tired. Too quiet to be a threat.
But he knocks anyway, trembling and steady, and looks Jason in the eye like he’s a miracle.
Like he matters.Tim never wanted to be a hero. He only wanted to stop the bleeding.
To keep Gotham’s heart beating.
To save the man who didn’t know how to grieve.Now Jason sees the truth.
This boy—this half-grown shadow in an oversized hoodie—is the only one who remembered him.
The only one who came looking.This is a story of resurrection and reckoning.
Of a ghost made flesh. Of a boy made brave.
Of what happens when the dead come home,
and find someone still waiting for them.- Words:

Summary
"Someone needs to go with him." Diana said. "She's a goddess of family. Her blessing will come from the strength of his familial ties."
All the more reason I should go. Damian thought.
Bruce and Dick shared a long look. Perhaps to the others in the room, it was a fast, indecipherable look, but Damian caught the pull of Dick's mouth and the tightness to his father's jaw. However, it was Bruce that said "Red Hood and Red Robin."
Damian's eyes widened.
Grayson was as good as dead.
Or the one where Dick's brothers manage to royally piss off an ancient deity that sends them careening through memories he'd rather they didn't see.

Summary
Big smile, hands on his hips, eyes lit up behind that black mask.
“I’m Robin!” Tim squeals, but it sounds nothing like him. His voice matches his size and demeanor, high pitched and soft and…happy. He lets out a giggle, flexing his arms in the mirror, giving a kick and a belated hi–yah.
“That’s not a Robin uniform,” Bruce points out belatedly. It’s not the part Jason was noticing, but he’s right. It’s thin cloth, and too loose. The right colors and shapes, Jason supposes, but still, there's something off about it.
“Well, that and he hasn’t met us, yet,” Dick points out. “He’s not old enough.”
“But this is supposed to be his first day as Robin," Damian argues. Jason agrees—something is very, very wrong.

Summary
"Bruce was working with Jason. Jason was actually standing up and wrestling Tim down the stairs, like he was going to listen to an order from Bruce. Them having teamed up to get rid of him was the only explanation.
“No, no, dad, please,” Tim said, straining to reach for him.
“C’mon, Timber, we’re going to the cave. Calm down,” Jason said.
“No-”
Of all the different ways Tim had imagined Jason killing him, never once had he thought Bruce would help. Be unable to stop him? Sure. But never actually help."
Tim gets caught in a Scarecrow attack as a civilian. He wakes up and figures out that his family is trying to kill him.
or, Proditiophobia, the fear of betrayal.

blackbird singing in the dead of night by britishparty
Fandom: Batman - All Media Types, Batman: Under the Red Hood (2010), Red Robin (Comics)
09 Dec 2022
Summary
An AU where Tim was imprisoned by Black Mask for most of his adolescence, trained to be his successor. His reintroduction to Gotham - and to Gotham's vigilantes - could go a little smoother. At least enough of his morality sticks around that he can probably consider himself safe from being a supervillain.
Though he isn't quite sure he qualifies for "superhero," either.

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

You don't get to tell me you feel bad by Jaytimsmutlvr

Summary
The worst month of his life begins not with a bang, but with a sort of light sound, like a pebble hitting water. Sure, it’s a sound you can hear, but it’s not loud. And still, that pebble gets the mountain rolling.
--
Tim readies his staff and clearly he has been underestimated once more—you’d think these people would learn at some point.
"Come on, we can't stay here!" he says and grabs Damian's arm.
"Don't- Don't touch me!" Tim flinches away like he's been burned.
Finally, Nightwing joins the duo and cradles Robin protectively. He glares at Tim.
"What was that? Why didn't you knock him out as soon as he had Robin?"
or: Every Robin deserves protection, except for the one that needed it the most.

Kon honestly wanted nothing more than to tell Lex Luther to fuck off. That's how it starts. He takes no responsibility for everything that came after. No, he's pretty sure that's Tim's fault. Maybe Bart's. Definitely not Cassie's though.
The core4 on a farm, doing good and causing mayhem. Maybe not in that order.
