Summary
On paper, it made sense. He couldn’t go to the police. The scandal would ruin Drake Industries. Tim didn’t particularly care about that, but his parents did, and he had a vested interest in keeping them happy and out of the country. He couldn’t go to Batman, either. While he was the placeholder Robin, he was going to hold onto the position as long as he could. That left crime, of course. All that to say, Tim now had a full time summer internship (with competitive pay!), helping Red Hood take down Drake Industries’ brand new, highly lucrative drug operation.

Summary
“It's nothing, Tim.” Tim looks up and sees stern conviction in his mother's eyes. “Nothing happened. Stop trying to make something out of nothing.”
They keep having him come back – they say he makes good business deals for them. Tim tries to seek out his parents when he's there, but as always, as from the start, they just...aren't there.
Because the thing is, Tim's not stupid – he's not. He knows that what's happening, shouldn't be happening...
But who's there to listen?

It's time for Tim to put on the performance of a lifetime, or risk being benched for good.

Summary
It sucked that Tim couldn't trust his family. They had either been his abusers or bystanders, but even when he tried to take himself off their hands, they clung to him like a sticky residue. Trapped, he felt like a mouse beneath a cat's paw, and he knew the only escape would be a clean-cut break with no room for interpretion.
Somehow, they made room for interpretation.
“Bruce,” Tim rasped, his discarded Red Robin suit a thousand pound weight in his hands, clean and ready to go in its case. “You don’t even *like* me.”
The truth dangled between them like a spider’s web clinging to separate walls.To no one’s shock, Batman said nothing. The only sounds in the cave were the shuffling of bats and Tim’s bike rumbling softly at the entrance, waiting patiently for him to make his escape.
