Summary
In March, Tim Drake was ambushed by an unknown assailant, and brutally tortured, and left to bleed out. He's found by his team, his family, and survives. Four months later, and Tim is still searching for the truth. The truth of who tortured him? And the truth of if Bruce's confidence in his is running out. And searching for the truth is harder when you're also trying to hide the truth. The truth that you were raped.
When Tim solves the case, things don't get better. He feels lost, hopeless, and ultimately rejected when Bruce doesn't respond how he'd hoped. It leaves Tim feeling unlovable and broken. And things spiral quickly.
But, in the end, Tim's fears are alleviated, his family and friends pull through him, and he's able to come out on the other side.(DARK THEMES, read the tags. Nothing explicitly though, no scenes are graphic. Most chapters are Tim being comforted while sad, though a few are more angsty, and I'll notify them as such. Happy ending, and, because I feel the need to, I put a fluffy epilogue)
