Summary
“Are there other children?”
Damian bites his cheek until he feels it swell between his teeth. Of course no version of the Batman would be content without returning back to wherever he came from with a trophy of his victory.
Ordinarily, Damian wouldn’t lie. It’s too high risk.
Today is different from any other day though.
“No, sir.” Damian allows the lie to roll off his tongue with just the slightest sprinkling of regret. "Not Anymore"

Summary
No one needed Tim Drake, but Tim Drake still needed to be needed. And well, who better to choose than the one person who could never stop needing him?
So inherently broken that his job would never be finished. Yet so unfortunately resilient that he would never be left the sole survivor. And so desperate to serve that he would never be betrayed again.
In other words, no one else needed Tim Drake, but certainly, he knew there was someone who could make use of his particular skill set.

Tim Drake, 12-year-old independent adult, professional birdwatcher, is offered everything he’s ever wanted…for the low, low price of his verbal agreement. All he has to do is say yes.

Summary
It was possible Tim had lost the plot somewhere along the line. He was ready to admit that. How could he not, when he was currently staring at an intubation tube that contained a clone of himself?
After nearly a hundred unsuccessful tries to clone Kon, he’d come to the realization that he lacked the data to clone a half-kryptonian. And just to make sure it wasn’t the cloning in general that was at fault, he’d taken some of his own genetic material and tried that. Well—it was safe to say the general equipment was not at fault. And it was too far along to abort himself. Not that Tim thought he could actually do that, that would almost be suicide—right?
Listen; He hadn’t slept in close to a week and he was maybe slightly manic. And he had cloned himself.
or: Somehow numerous cloning attempts and an actual clone lead to Tim getting boyfriend. Yeah, he's not sure how he managed that either.

Summary
When Timothy first came here, when the—he left everything behind. And he thought, this new world, this new life, it would free him from that shit. After all, what could he possibly have to stress over now? Compared to getting declared fucking insane to the entire hero community, having to search the world for proof of
hisBatman alone, being pursued by a centuries-old demon head, grieving his friends and family with only pity or condescension for support, losing—just, every single thing that was going on back there, none of it followed him here.So why couldn’t his body keep up and maybe not throw a fucking fit over shit that didn’t matter anymore?

Summary
just me yelling about the state of Timothy’s self-image and new brand of morality :) trying out various styles to say “life and death mean nothing to me now. only staying with you. whatever that means. no matter the cost.”
(oh you thought the first fic was Timothy being ready to be Healthy about Self-Care? absolutely not, he’s made a new form of self-care that no one else can touch.)

Summary
”I’m okay,” he tries, his voice crackling and dry.
”No! You’re hurt! I hurt you!”
Tim doesn’t feel hurt? He looks down. Ah.
Shit.
Timmy’s right, he’s covered in burns peeking through the burnt gaps in his clothes, some of it melted into his skin—but he’s also see-through. So he did die.
”This wasn’t you,” he manages through his burning—from the heat and smoke and burning—throat.
Or
Tim—Timmy, young, hungry, and alone—Drake, summons the ghost of recently deceased Tim—Red Robin, not abandoning this kid, also alone—Drake. What’ll happen next?

Summary
Tim’s been having a really bad week.
Not that his weeks are ever good, these days. Not since Batman kidnapped him, almost four years ago now. Not since he had realized what Batman wanted him for.

Summary
Twelve-year-old Tim Drake has homework to finish and dinner waiting at home. He even has an invitation to spend time with Bruce before patrol the next day reviewing toxins and antidotes. It doesn't matter that Bruce prefers to keep things all-business and down in the Batcave. Having Robin again is helping, Tim can already see that, and it's always a relief to know when he's invited back.
Sixteen-year-old Tim Drake decides that he'd rather keep his distance from the tempting research project Bruce has across two work tables. It's archaeology and time travel all at once, even more interesting than usual after Bruce's long trip through time, but Bruce probably won't crack that in one night. Getting involved in the project will eliminate Tim's chance to escape to his apartment for a quiet evening rather instead of struggling through an awkward dinner with Jason and Damian and Bruce.
When the Tims suddenly switch times and places, twelve-year-old Tim has an invitation to dinner and sixteen-year-old Tim knows just what kind of ripples someone can leave from the past.

Summary
Bruce can’t help but be suspicious. Ed is wearing a suit, something obviously high quality but a little oddly cut. Avant garde, maybe, by some obscure designer. He’s missing a tie, but it’s hard to tell if that’s a style choice or if he’d just lost it somewhere along the way. The whole thing is badly wrinkled, as if he’d left in a hurry and hadn’t had time to pack. It speaks well of him.
Or it’s designed to give an impression that speaks well of him.
