Tie The Strings Of Fate Back Together Again by Megaerakles
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
24 Aug 2023

Summary
Tim Drake has quite a few secrets. For one thing, he knows the identity of Batman and Robin. For another, he's an employee of the Soul Bureau, the entity in charge of organizing the afterlife. Tim's job is to host souls that have been lost before their time but are supposed to come back. When Robin dies at the hands of the Joker, Jason Todd's soul is assigned to Tim.
For someone who puts on tights to fight crime, Jason sure is critical of Tim's life choices. It's a good thing Lost Souls never remember what happened to them while they were dead, or he'd really be in for it once Jason comes back to life!

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?)

Summary
When Tim had first started out as Robin and had begun to hang around Bruce and Dick more often than not, he had done some internet snooping. The Web was the greatest place for research. Pages upon pages of websites that were willing to give him insight into the complicated operations of the average family, all resting directly at his fingertips. Good ‘ol Wikihow telling him how the world worked.
He had learned new words and their definitions, about what behaviors siblings displayed with each other, the nitty-gritty details that made up a family unit.
And one subject that had come up repeatedly was the “Cain Instinct”.
TLDR: Tim does not know how to be anything other than an only child and looks to the internet for help, a decision that Jason suffers for.

Summary
He spots the robin on a tree branch maybe thirty feet away, and Tim, grinning, goes to adjust the settings on the binoculars.
It's exactly then that he realizes what's behind the bird.
Because from here, on the third story and at just this angle, there's no treeline to block his view. Behind the little robin singing on its branch, he can see the Wayne family manor, clear as anything, close enough that it almost feels like he could reach out and touch it. One of the windows on the downstairs floor is open, and it's draped with light curtains that float softly in the breeze. A moment later, a different sort of Robin bounds into view, sans mask, grin wide and bright.
Tim flinches back as though burned.

Summary
Tommy was living the worst weeks of his life. First, he found out he's a necromancer, something that is very, very illegal and will probably get him killed. Second he got caught by hunters and captured. Now he's been sold to some cult so he can raise their "Blood God" from the dead.
The only real upside to all of this is that their Blood God might be just as lost and confused as Tommy is. Oh, also, he's very much not a god, but nobody's told the cult this.
Or
A vegan necromancer and a normal dude attempt to escape a cult together.

Summary
Looking up he finds a blond-haired man hovering over his face with a worried, anxious look that quickly turning to relief when their eyes meet. Royal blue meeting a greyish blue. “Hey mate.” The stranger greets with a smile, his voice much clearer than before, “You awake?”
As a reply, Tommy lets out a short wheeze, trying to give the man a look that reads ‘what do you think?’.
“Yeah, silly question.” The man responds with a light-hearted chuckle. “It’s okay though, we’ll get you out of here and help you get better.” He explains, gesturing towards someone that seemed to be out of Tommy’s eyesight.
------

Summary
Dawn and Andrew are two young children from California, in the U.S. of A.
Except, they're... not in California?
Oh, God, this weird place is Gotham. This city with the massive, old buildings is Gotham.
“Hi, I’m Dawn, and this is Andrew, and we need help,” Dawn informed the adult who had to stand up to see them over the counter.
“What do you need help with?” The adult asked, looking at the both of them with a sort of weird face.
“We’re not at home,” Dawn told the adult, who should be fixing the obvious problem right now. “Can we have a phone to call our parents?”
The adult looked at them and didn’t get them a phone. Instead, the adult got another adult, who got another adult, and Dawn and Andrew were told to go sit on a couch before any of the police gave them a phone. This was the worst customer service ever.

“If I may-" the vendor moved to grab one figurine, displaying the tea pet on her palm. “This one is very special."
It was also the ugliest tea pet Shen Jiu had ever seen, slightly misshapen and painted oddly. He could hardly even tell what animal it was meant to be. A dog? A dragon?
Still, he wasn't about to be rude. “Oh?"
“Yes, my grandson had… tried his best," The woman grimaced slightly. “It may not be perfect, but it's a depiction of someone very important for Hua-Um- The Mount Hua Sect's very own Divine Dragon!"
Next to him, Cheong Myeong choked.
Shen Jiu was sold. “I'll take it."

Summary
Tim Drake knows that crying yields no data. He learned that at six years old in an empty house, illuminated only by the blue light of a computer screen.
Now, he’s an exhausted student by day and a digital poltergeist by night. He doesn't just "watch" the Wayne family, he optimizes them. He hacks their coffee machines, stabilizes their tactical HUDs, and leaves anonymous medical alerts on the Bat-computer when Bruce’s cortisol levels spike. It’s not stalking if it’s protective, right?
But when Jason Todd corners him in the library to argue about The Great Gatsby, Tim realizes that maintaining a firewall is a lot harder when the target is sitting across the table. It turns out, you can’t calculate your way out of a hug, and the Waynes are very, very persistent.

Summary
But the real cincher had been an old newspaper article Tim found while researching at the Gotham Public Library (he was supposed to be playing at the park across the street but Tim would rather die than-). It had been about the death of Martha and Thomas Wayne with a blown up photo of eight year old Bruce at their funeral.
From there all Tim had to do was look in a mirror.
The same chubby cheeks and button nose. The same slant of their eyes and cupid’s bow. All Tim had to do was part his hair to the side and gel it back to a neat style and they could be twins.
Or father and son.
XxXOr in which Tim is the result of an affair and is kind of semi okay. The same cannot be said for everyone else.

Summary
The Joker missed the "good old days", just him, Batman, Harley, and the first Robin. He's grown tired, none of these new Robin's new how to have fun. Where was the banter? Where was the witt? He put time and effort into his traps and the birds gave him nothing to work with. It's fine, good old Uncle Jay decided to do something about it.
------
Dick is de-aged to his mid-season one YJ self.
He's highly trained, been doing this for half a decade, and has the scars to back it up. He can't help but be underwhelmed by the attitude of his successors. But Dick doesn't want to deal with that because he's missing over a decade of his life all because of the Joker. He can handle older heroes underestimating his abilities, this is his typical tuesday. Everyone else might not get a choice in the matter as information comes to light that leaves them to rethinking some of their life choices.
Except Past-Dick, because as he inidicated before, they are a problem for Future-Dick.

Summary
Life in Gotham can be really weird. Especially for Dick Grayson but he makes it work despite the weirdness. They did said that expect the unexpected and that life can be very unpredictable so made sure he can handle it.
But probably not to the point where he gets tangled up with the family drama of the Wayne Family and be stalked by vigilantes left and right.
Perhaps Commissioner Gordon was right, he is a catnip for people who dress up in ridiculous costumes and beat up the bad guys for a living.
[ EDIT (02/27/25) — I’ll try to edit the first 2 chapters soon guys 🫡 but still, please enjoy!! ]
