    Summary

    “I have time.”

    Tim does not, in fact, have time.

    But it’s Nightwing who is calling. What’s he going to do—say no? Preposterous. That's a crime in and of itself. Tim would rather swallow nails and kiss his mother goodnight than say no to Dick Grayson. “How can I help you, Nightwing?”

    ---
    or, when tim is three people at the same time, jebaits the bats into joining their family twice, and might be accidentally running the city as an emergency hotline operator. not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    Is it illegal to plan a murder or only to act on it? Where does intent lie as a prosecutorial offense? And, in Gotham, who would ever convict a middle schooler of selling plans for the perfect murder? Who would admit to buying them?

    Tim Drake is abandoned by his parents at eight years old. He survives Gotham the best way he knows how, by relying on his brain.

    The Batfam notices a new rogue, being referred to as the plotter, and decide to investigate. Who knew they'd find a new little brother to adopt.

    Summary

    “Tim wonders, sometimes, what life would be like if everyone came back. If they got a second chance. If they just walked back into his life with a smile, strong and whole and alive, like nothing ever happened. Like Tim never loved and lost and mourned and moved on.

    But resurrection is a pipe dream, nothing more. No one who dies will ever come back to life, no matter how badly Tim wishes otherwise.”

    AU in which death is actually the end, no one comes back to life, and Tim is the only one left to carry the burden of the cowl.

    Summary

    ____

    Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
    A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.

    But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
    Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.

    Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
    Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"

    They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.

    Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

    A Shocking Introduction by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU

    Summary

    Honestly, Dick had designed his weapons to hurt to the point that they are possibly on the wrong side of entirely ethical. He couldn’t help himself though. Some of the shit he’d seen in Bludhaven, well, his sympathy for the worst of humanity had fallen at a rapid rate. He knew he’d get used to it again one day, when the desensitization kicked in, but for now, he was having a hard time remembering why they had ethics they followed in the first place.

     

    So sue him. He wanted to hurt the people who made their lives all about hurting others. He wasn’t gonna apologize for not having infinite patience for bullshit.

     

    He was, however, going to apologize for forgetting that he could make mistakes and that sometimes you hit the wrong target, even in hand-to-hand combat.

     

    Or, Dick and Tim meet face to face in less-than-ideal circumstances.

    (Can be read as a One-shot)
