The Shield of Ithaca by Runs_With_Wolves1

Summary
The Fates cast Percy Jackson into the past to right the wrongs that threaten the future, but he must journey back further than he imagined to stop them. He finds himself in the time of The Odyssey, where Ithaca is overrun with suitors vying for Queen Penelope's hand. The key to saving the world, to defeating Gaea, lies somewhere on Ithaca, and Percy must assume the identity of Antinous, infiltrating the suitors to find it.
To protect Penelope and her son, Percy plays a dangerous game. By day, he mocks tradition and courts the queen with sharp smiles and hollow words. By night, he intercepts assassination attempts and secretly leads Telemachus away from ambushes he doesn’t even know he’s avoided. He is their shield and protector.
But the queen and her son don’t see a protector. They see a threat.
To them, Antinous is the most cunning and dangerous of the suitors. Arrogant, intrusive, and far too clever. Telemachus loathes him, believing him the sharpest knife at his mother’s throat.
As time goes on, Percy must decide how far he’s willing to fall to save the world, and whether a hero’s heart can survive behind a villain’s name.

Summary
After Drake Industries takes a big hit, Jack and Janet Drake send their son to stay with Bruce Wayne. They assume that he will understand that they are trying to sell Tim to him in exchange for him helping their company. Bruce mistakes the Drakes constant insinuations of comparing Tim to Dick and Jason as them possibly wanting Bruce to adopt Tim. Tim knows everything that is going on, and does not want his whole life to fall apart when Bruce eventually realizes that his parents were trying to pimp him out, so he stays quiet. But after bonding with Jason and Dick, he finds it hard to convince himself that his parents are worth it.

Summary
Janet Drake never wanted kids.
Janet’s parents were so insistent that she be kept in the public eye to distract from the shady doings of Drake Pharmaceuticals at the time, that she had caught the eyes of many greedy men and women. Janet was not going to allow her son to face the same wandering eyes and greedy hands. Timothy was to stay in on the weekend and before and after work hours while others are out and about, but could roam the grounds while others are at work or school.
He is to remain unseen and unknown.
Nobody knows the drakes have a child.
AKA
Prompt: Tim Drake's parents pass away when he’s young and since he’s used to surviving on his own he lives in Drake manor by himself for a few years (while stalking the bats ofc) until he needs something or has some dire info on a case that without it, Batman wouldn't be able to figure it out. I'm thinking he walks up to Wayne Manner wearing his best ratty clothes and just knocks on the door. Either Alfred or little Jason open the door and introduce Tim to Bruce. Cue interrogation, then an adoption attempt at which Tim runs away. Cat and mouse. Tiny Tim running through park row like he's a ‘street kid’. (I'm making it up as I go along)

Whatever happened to imaginary friends? by CoffeeTrees

Summary
Tim, the ever vigilant (always awake and never giving himself a break) vigilante, gets word of a drug bust going down. One he just so happens to be the only one available to stop. Which happens to be taking place in the very early hours of his birthday. Of course he goes on the highly dangerous bust alone. What could happen?
Or: Tim is used to being the Robin that gets thing handled, that doesn't need Batman to come rescue him. Bruce Wayne had made it very clear in the early days that Tim was not his son. Alfred Pennyworth was cold, allowing only the politeness and distance to show through his Iron Wall. Dick Grayson treated him the way he wished he'd treated his brother, Jason.
Tim was fine with this. He wasn't a child. Even if he wished for more of the small slivers of love the Wayne family were just starting to give him, he wouldn't dare take Jason Todd's place. He just hoped the support he provided for the grieving family would make Jason proud. But Jason Todd came back, and he sure made it known he wasn't. He made sure Tim knew exactly what he thought of the cuckoo in his family.
Now, the Wayne family has their lost son back and Tim has a job to do. Just, not in this dimension?

Summary
Tim gets bitten by a radioactive spider before he ever even sees Batman and Robin in person for the first time. It fuels his photography, grants him the ability to hide and crawl into places he never would have been able to before. It’s how he discovers Batman and Robin are his neighbors.
When he joins their family, he is determined for this to work, it needs to work. The only problem is- Tim has watched them for years, and he knows the second they find out he’s a meta, he wont be allowed to be Robin anymore; he can’t let that happen. Batman needs a Robin.
//This will take place during a few moments in time so I can cover fully his transformation into Spider-Tim (name in progress don't worry) as well as mostly his life as he grows up hiding 75% of himself from his family.

Summary
Tim didn't understand why they were so mad at him. Damian's reaction was uncalled for, yet when he voiced this, he was looked at as the villain. It's probably another case of Dick's babying of Damian and unfairness towards Tim.
Or
The Wayne family goes to a charity gala, only for some perverted old man to make certain comments about Damian. Tim does nothing, in fact, he had made Damian suck it up.
Or
Tim think's sexual harassment is only physical, not understanding it can be verbal.
Or
Tim's shit upbringings makes him bad at understanding.
(I know that's a lot of 'Or's' but I didn't know how else to put it lmfao.)

Summary
Ornithomancy is the practice of divining omens/messages from birds by their flight patterns, cries, and calls.
If someone asked Tim if he ever practiced the art of ornithomancy, he would flat out say, “Nah.” But he now realizes that reading the Batfamily’s mind was essentially the same thing.
He didn’t think that his power would get him into so much trouble, but he should’ve known better. He also didn’t think that they would ever find out about his ability, but as always, Tim was wrong.

Summary
“You got a pen?”
Tim blinked owlishly before scrambling to grab a pen from his book bag, as if terrified Jason would change his mind in the 6 seconds he took to search. He held it out to Jason who snatched it right out of his hands.
“If we do this, we’re doing it right. You got that, Richie?" Jason snarled. "When I sign this you’re my kid!”
“I don’t do things in half measures. I’m gonna be there for every PTA meeting, every club invite, every fucking carpool you understand? I don’t need some white bread, pearl clutching bitch telling me I’m a shitty Guardian just ‘cause I didn’t ask for this.”
---
The only thing worse than crawling out of your own grave to find your father had replaced you with the first black haired, blue eyed preteen he could find, is said replacement begging you to sign emergency foster papers... except maybe you signing said papers and having to learn how to be a parent on the fly... Fuck it, he couldn't do any worse than Bruce.

I'm Afraid to Close My Eyes (Stay with Me in My Nightmares) by FayeS2

Summary
Harry Potter died.
Or at least, he was supposed to. He felt the Killing Curse consume his body, the void of death pulling him under… but at the last moment, she caught him. Death itself, watching him for so long, whispered a final chance.
And when Harry opened his eyes again, he was no longer in his time.
The year was 1942.
Hogwarts was the same, yet everything around him was different. And among the students, there was one name that made his heart pound with unease: Tom Marvolo Riddle.
Before him stood the Dark Lord—but not yet.
Not yet lost. Not yet beyond saving.
Harry didn’t know what fate had in store for him, but one thing was certain—he was no longer just the Master of Death. He was part of it. And if Death had given him a second chance, perhaps it was to change everything.
Perhaps he could rewrite the future.
Or perhaps… he was meant for something far darker.

Summary
Harry Potter is supposed to be Voldemort's personal meditation tool for Dark Lords Suffering From Being Surrounded By Idiots, but when sudden changes in his sullen mental state come to Voldemort's attention, his plans are shoved aside and he is left reeling from sudden revelations about his nemesis.
OR
Harry would like to remember who he is, where he is, and who he is with. As he recalls more and more of his past, he realizes that he might just be safer than he's ever been and that it's kind of weird that he has yet to remember anything about the man who claims to be his enemy (and is doing a horrible job at it).

Summary
Tim doesn't like his medication. He feels really weird lately, and he's certain it's because of the blue pills. Yet every time he thinks too hard about it, his thoughts trail off until he can't remember what they were.
"The pills are good for you, Timothy." His parents tell him. "Don't you remember how much you struggled before? How disobedient you were? Look at you now, you never argue or ask those obnoxious questions anymore."
The worst part is, they're right. Tim doesn't argue or ask questions anymore. Mostly because half of the time when he goes to speak, his words have abandoned him before he even opens his mouth.
(Tim's brain is super messed-up. Good thing his parents have medicine to help him.)
(The Drakes don't appreciate that their son is extra intelligent in all the wrong ways, so naturally they start drugging him from age six and on.)
