    Summary

    Once upon a time, Tim and Damian wanted each other dead. Now they're sure that the other is the only one that really gets it anymore.

    AKA Tim and Damian have the same trauma around training that they consider to be the norm and are glad to find another person who "trains like a normal person" instead of realizing that they're the outliers.

    Summary

    Joker was beyond redemption. Tim had attended so many funerals, so many memorials, stood in front of countless graves, murmured to sobbing victims, sent flowers to hospital rooms. All because the Joker wanted to play with Batman. All because Batman would rather play the game, then put a permanent end to it all.

    Even with the no-killing rule, he would find a way to fix it. The Justice League put super-powered criminals into the Phantom Zone, where they could never escape or harm anyone. Surely, Tim could find something like that to imprison Joker.

    But now Red Hood, revealed as the Jason Todd, has entered the scene, stage right. Full of righteous fury. Full of murderous intent. Full of hatred towards the Joker. Maybe he doesn't need to build that phantom zone projector...

    ---
    OR: Tim wants Joker dead. He’s manipulating everyone to that end.

    Summary

    Nearly every vigilante fucked up now and then.

    Even somebody as competent as Oracle, Black Bat, or Nightwing.

    So when Tim dropped the Robin and the Red Robin name and went about as Cardinal – The Detective, he was ready for failures and setbacks.

    And his readiness for failure came from parts of his own stubbornness and experiences as Robin and Red Robin.

    But to say he made a mistake somehow that led to this, that’d just piss him off.

    (or)

    Tim Drake finds himself at the hands of the Joker and has an electrifying experience.

    Summary

    Jason Todd goes to Titan's Tower to send a message. He won’t kill Robin there, no—that wouldn’t be poetic enough. Instead, he’ll torture the cuckoo to death and dump his body in the Nevada desert, never to be found—ensuring he has enough fingers and toes to mail Bruce for the next twenty years.

    Only when the time comes, Jason…can’t do it.

    Now he’s stranded 3,000 miles from Gotham, with nothing but a smart-mouthed Robin, a beat-up pickup truck, and a dream.

    You know what they say—take me home, country roads.

    Or,

    Jason goes to Titans Tower to attack Tim. Instead, the two road-trip across the country from San Fransisco back to Gotham. Featuring greasy diner food, shitty motels, talks about trauma in the bed of a pickup truck, and as many metaphors about roads as I can possibly cram in here.

    OR OR,

    Jason drives forever and ends up exactly where he started.

    Summary

    “It’s Tim’s turn to pick the music,” grunted Bruce, cutting Jason off before he could speak, and resolutely closed the van’s door. He raised a thick eyebrow prompting everybody into fastening their seat belts.

    Alfred, of course, sat on the passenger seat. In the second row of seats, sat the first three Robins, leaving the newest members on the third and final row.

    “Fine,” huffed Jason, crossing his arms and releasing the phone so Tim could grab it. But before he reached it, Dick pulled Tim backwards by the shoulders.

    “Hey—!”

    “NO! this is a trap.” Shouted Dick, putting Tim in a chokehold and cutting him off. Tim retaliated by biting him, but Dick didn’t even flinch. “You’ll have to draw blood for that to work, kiddo,” he hissed. Tim wasn’t enthused by the idea, but he didn't stop gnawing on Dick’s forearm. “These two have the same music taste! I’m sick of The Clash.”

    Summary

    Dick feels the stirrings of hope in his chest as he finally places the familiarity. Hesitantly, he holds out a hand and slowly says, “Tim…?”

    That little face breaks out into a smile, revealing a gap between his front teeth, providing more proof to the insane theory in his head. The child says nothing as they crawl out of the bundle of clothes, and Dick quickly grabs Tim (right?) before he can put his hands on the dirty ground.

    “Tim,” he whispers, daring to believe.

    Or:

    Tim gets de-aged to two. Dick... tries his best.

    Summary

    Jason might have a stalker.

    Okay, technically, Robin might have a stalker. That, or Jason is having a stress-induced psychotic break or being routinely dosed with fear toxin every few patrols. Not that he’s scared, because, well, he’s not. It’s just. He’s supposed to be watching the streets, not vice versa.

    It takes him a full week to find (circumstantial, at best) evidence.

    ___

    Or… Jason is trying to adopt his eleven-year-old stalker and Tim just wants Robin to accept his apology granola bar.

    Summary

    Tim Drake always suspected something was different about him.

    Maybe it was how the city of darkness and war called to him from the edges of it's richer parts, or maybe it was how no matter how hard he tried to blend in, tried to fit in, it wasn't quite right.

    He had never thought he was fated to be a god.

    Summary

    Therapy isn't working out for Tim (possibly because he has like, way too many issues), so Dinah suggests he try music therapy instead. This turns out to be such a good idea he drafts it to his team and suddenly he's moonlighting as a rock singer in a band that's rising in popularity. Maintaining a new "secret" identity is easy enough, and he's having a lot of fun!

    Unfortunately for Tim, it seems he's a bit TOO good at the secret identity thing, because his family doesn't seem to realize that it's him.

    Ugh, this is just proving his point.

    Summary

    Timothy Jackson Drake is almost four years old, and he knows a lot of things.

    He knows how to read and write, and how to do simple math, and how to say “pleased to meet you” and “goodbye” and “thank you” and “may I use the bathroom” in French. He also knows how to introduce himself politely, and how to hold his knife and fork properly, and when it is okay to bother other people and when it isn’t.

    AKA

    Tim meets his new nanny for the summer, Miss Claire! The impact of this will be relatively small, I'm sure.

    Summary

    "Barbara Gordon," The kid that broke into her house greets her, almost like a supervillain if not for the borderline starstruck expression on his face, "I… I know you're paralyzed, and can't help on the field, but I don't know what to do and I can't just do nothing and I'm not making Dick come back to an abusive situation, he doesn't deserve that, and you don't deserve that either, but you haven't really left, I don't think, and I'm not really asking you to go back, I just, I need help, and you're smart. You'd know what to do."

    "Pause," Barbara said, holding up one of her hands and using the other to massage her temple, "What are you talking about?"

    The kid flushes, ducking his head. "I'm so sorry! I had a script and everything and then as soon as I got here I just forgot it!" He clears his throat and looks back up at her with a determined expression "I know you're Batgirl and I really, really need your help because Batman's lost himself in his grief and Gotham can't take him."

    OR,

    Batman is abusive, so instead of going to Dick Grayson, Tim Drake goes to Barbara Gordon when searching for a solution to Bruce's grief spiral.

    "Tim! That saying doesn't apply to organs!" Dick cries.

    "I'm pretty sure it does, actually," Tim corrects.

    Summary

    “Uh-huh. Sure. Okay.” Peter doesn’t know if it’s better to believe the stalker or not. “And what’s your deal, Tim? Why are you squatting on my fire escape like a raccoon?”

    “I don’t know.”

    Peter waits. “...You don’t know.”

    “Not really. I just — ended up here.” Tim’s brow furrows. “You’re the only one who can see me, aren’t you?”

    Or: Peter Parker is being haunted by an amnesiac ghost named Tim — who may or may not have once been a hero.
