Summary
Tim Drake's scattered mental health, especially through the eyes of others, is there, though pieces aren't necessarily pieced together. Tim Drake's not fine, has never been fine, and likely wasn't even born fine.

Summary
Cass thinks back upon her actions on a recent mission, and regrets it all.
You could be reared by David Cain, and trained as Batgirl, and not recognize the intense self-loathing and the slipper slope fallacy when your own mind commands it.

Summary
Tim Drake has been raised under Selina Kyle for the past couple of years now. However, when he crosses path with the newest Robin, Stephanie Brown, he decides to get closer to her to get to Bruce Wayne, and finally prove himself as a worthy predecessor to one of the world's greatest thieves.
If only it were that simple.

Over and Over and Over and Over Again by SpiritoftheArctic

Summary
Dick Grayson's been having a crappy week. Scratch that, he was having an absolutely horrible week.
But when family and duty calls, he can't be the one to decline. When Bruce and Tim and Jason and Damian are all yelling at each other and getting snippy, he knows he's the one who has to step in. When people need a shoulder, a spare ear, somebody to take their anger out on, it's always him, though the favor is seldom returned. Over and over and over again.
(Aka: Dick Grayson has Eldest Daughter Syndrome and is awfully close to his limit)

Summary
Jason Todd is dead.
He knows this, and doesn't know how to grapple with all the complicated feelings his own death comes with, especially towards the man he always looked up to.
(aka what if Jason never got revived and is instead a ghost haunting Wayne Manor)
(also that's what the major character death warning is for, nobody else dies in this)

Summary
The Wayne family has seen some stuff, nobody doubts that. However, when a meeting with Dr. Thompkins leaves Bruce to tentatively encourage his protective family to go see a psychologist, he doesn't expect the impact it would have. And he certainly doesn't expect to consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, coming from various haunted backgrounds and having a family of crime-fighting kids might come with some scars that never truly settled down...
(To note: I am NOT a licensed psychologist. I am merely a psychology student that thought this would be a fun fic idea, and have a couple relevant classes under my belt. This by no means is meant to be representative of actual application, practices, or diagnoses in the field!)

Summary
Lewis, before he was a mayor, before that man's grandchild came to reclaim their farm in Pelican Town, knew their grandfather once. There was even a time when the two would share their most intimate of conversations and longest of nights in the comfort of one another.
This is how their story ended.
(Or what if Grandpa and Mayor Lewis knew each other way, way back? Since Grandpa doesn't get much screen time, I took the liberty of fleshing them out some. Lewis is 23, Joseph (grandpa) is 28)).

But Tell Us, Who Is The Fox And Who Is The Hunter by SpiritoftheArctic
Fandoms: The Quarry (Video Game)

Summary
North Kill was the perfect place to shed the vicious past, and actually put that English degree to semi-good use in the local bookstore. However, when a rain storm brings with it the local sheriff, it's harder than you think to escape the memories that haunt the both of you, and the guilt that comes with the horrors of what happens after dark.
(Listen. I can't write descriptions. Basically this a self-indulgent Travis x Reader where you'll rail him at some point, and I just needed some vague semblance of plot to tie things in together)

How To End a Monday by Elle_Of_Her (SpiritoftheArctic)

Summary
Connor’s work at the DPD was fairly straightforward … if it weren’t for the fact that you were there. You were sent by Cyberlife to check on Connor, to be at his side nearly every moment, comment on his behaviors, and make sure he was on track. See if there were any external distractions to the mission. So then why was this job so much more difficult than what you had anticipated?

Summary
Dina always looked so good in amber. Ellie wasn’t sure of many things, wasn’t sure why the world went to shit and how the world really worked before breakout day, but she was sure that Dina looked great in amber and that fire must have been invented just to highlight her features.

Summary
(This is a self-indulgent fic I wrote >2 years ago and has just been collecting dust in my google docs, so there's that. I figured others might want it, so I switched to y/n. Enjoy I guess)
Y/N has been struggling for a little while, and Fat Gum is just happy to offer his support.
