Summary
During the Joker's latest attack, five boys went missing. Of them, only Tim has figured out how to survive under the Joker's twisted version of "care." As escape attempts pile up, Tim realizes that his freedom hinges on Batman and Robin coming to his rescue—but even they seem unable to find him with the Joker having gone underground.
Jason knows it’s only a matter of time before Bruce realizes the mistake he's made by taking him in. Labelled as "reckless" and "emotional," his newly-discovered birth mom might be his last chance at family.
These two converging roads were always destined to meet eventually.

Summary
He’s very aware that, were He a living, breathing human being, He would just be a parasocial stalker. He likes to almost consider Himself part of this family on good days. If He were to come out of hiding only to find that everyone wanted Him gone (which was extremely likely, considering they didn’t know Him), then well…
He doesn’t know what He’d do with Himself. Their lack of means to perceiving Him means that He can never be shooed away, and can never be imposing on anyone.
Unfortunately, it might be a bit too late for that. Damian knows He’s here. Damian likely won’t rest until the mystery is solved, too. There’s no answer to be found though. No one can ever find Him, not even if they tried their damndest. He is no one.
———
Or,
Timothy Jackson Drake is a ghost. That’s unimportant, though, because he lives in the city of the world’s coolest family ever. Surely the bats won’t notice some friendly cohabitation, right?

Summary
Tim is prepared to take the steps necessary to ensure that Bruce will not feel obligated to adopt Tim when a comatose Jack Drake inevitably dies. But what could be better than preventing Bruce from ending up with a son he doesn't want? Bringing back the one he does.
Jason agrees to the Replacement's stupid, stupid plan to invite some strange adult man he's never met to come live with him, if only to keep the idiot alive long enough for him to serve his purpose in the Great Red Hood Revenge Scheme.
Might this new roommate situation have an impact on either of their worldviews? Surely not...

Summary
There was a new vigilante in his city: a man who smiled too much and talked too loud and knew his way around a fight a little too well. Bruce wasn't bothered by his antics. Except the man also seemed to know a little too much about him.
Who was this Nightwing, anyway?

He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home by motleyfam for batmoniker

Summary
Tim is good at galas.
No, scratch that—Tim is great at galas. He’s been attending them ever since the age of three, when his parents first stuffed him into his little Gymboree tuxedo and gave him a stern lecture about ‘sitting quietly’ and ‘speaking when spoken to.’ He knows all the rules: what to wear, how to stand, when to smile, what to say, what not to say. He knows how to come across as polite and intelligent and charming, and on absolutely any other day, he would be rocking this.
---
Or, my take on a ‘Tim Joins the Family Early’ AU, told through a series of sleepovers, most of which are unplanned.
Featuring pre-teen Tim, Alive!Jason, and a whole lot of hurt/comfort.

Summary
When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.
Because the "call Batman when you're in trouble" rule only applies when he's Robin, right?

Summary
The man barks out a laugh. A wave of familiarity washes over Eddie, so strong it makes him sway on his feet. He looks the guy up and down again, trying to place where he knows him from.
“I’m Eddie,” he offers.
The man grabs a box of cereal seemingly at random. Eddie frowns— it looks like pure sugar in a box. He puts on a voice, a passable impression of Perry Mason: “Richard W. Tozier, Esquire. At your service, Eddie Spaghetti.”
I know him, Eddie’s soul is screaming. I know him, I can’t let him go. Not again.
-
Richie and Eddie run into each other in their early thirties. They don't realize it at the time, but this ends up changing everything.

Summary
“Okay,” That voice— John’s voice— drawls, and another hand settles at the nape of his neck, steady and firm and grounding. “Yep, we’re not doing that. No weird shadow shame rooms today, pal. Sorry. We’ve got shit to do.”
They have nothing to do. Nothing but wandering around this empty, dead tower and staring down at the city crawling along without them. Nothing but drowning in the emptiness echoing around them.
“Aren’t you tired?” He whispers, and it doesn’t even sound like him at all. Walker goes rigid against him. “I am. ‘M so tired.”

Summary
“Anybody broken?” He hears Bucky say, somewhere further back, and increases his pace. It’s not like he’s embarrassed about getting hit, has been in the line of fire long enough to know that there’s no shame in it, and yet somehow, with this team, he has the overwhelming urge to show as little weakness as possible.
Yelena would have a field day with that line of thinking, would lecture him about trust issues and team cohesion and a slew of other complaints, but what she doesn’t know won’t kill her.
It’s not like any of them trust him, anyway, so it’s all a bit hypocritical.

Summary
"Lance summoned his Bayard.
Aim. Breathe. Shoot.
The resounding shot echoed in his ears. Except it wasn’t from his gun.
Lance’s legs gave out before he even realized what’d happened. He’d been shot. Square in his right ass cheek."
...
Lance McClain, Blue Paladin and Red Lion Pilot, has survived many trials out in space: Strenuous battles, relentless pining over Keith Kogane, being shot in truly embarrassing places ... but when he ends up on a solo mission it may prove to be his hardest challenge yet. Especially since he's stuck on a planet that doesn't even like Voltron. But it can't be any harder than trying to reconnect with Keith (who's been extra closed off since his returned from the Quantum Abyss), can it?
What results is many laughs ... and many tears.

Summary
"They would be in love and everything would be just as it was five years ago. Everything would be just as it was. Jay could be the force that would turn back time. He could be. He just had to throw this one more party, and Daisy would come over. Just this one more. Jay was in constant motion, constantly reaching for Daisy, for the green light, for his future. She was the only thing that could stop him.
Until an opposing force showed up. Someone who could stop him, who could turn him away from Daisy.
And his name was Nick Carraway."
Newton has three laws of motion.
Here are three times Jay Gatsby met Nick Carraway. Orbiting closer and closer every time, until finally, finally, they touch.

Summary
“Nothing?” I asked. “You’ve found nothing you love that isn’t for or because of her?”
Gatsby hesitated. His lips parted. “I can only imagine why you care so much.”
I considered confession, but a sin of omission was no worse than a sin of admission, so I said nothing. He hadn’t accused me.
“Why do you think?” I asked, instead. I hadn’t meant to say it, but the words fell from my drink-slack lips.

“I know it’s stupid.. I just- shit. This sounds so fucking.. crazy but.. I swear I keep waking up- I keep waking up like today. Like.. multiple times.” The words came out rough and nearly broke at the end as his breath shuddered, shoulders rigid.
“Okay, hold on. Back up, Ev.” At least Jared wasn’t laughing. Tentatively he released his grip on his backpack, instead reaching out to settle on either of Evan’s shoulders. “So.. like, you keep waking up, but it’s today?”
