    Summary

    He has never argued with a punishment, not since he was a toddler, if then. Surely she’ll listen, surely she’ll see this is too harsh, that he wouldn’t be disrespecting her like this if he was simply sulking over not getting his way. He needs that food, needs to be able to eat enough if he wants to be Robin.

    He’s been hungry before, but back then, it never mattered if he was a little weak or dizzy. It never risked his life or the life of his partner when he was a kid.

    She turns, sighing softly and pursing her lips. She reaches out to pat his cheek, and for a moment his heart soars hopefully, and he barely restrains himself from leaning into the rare bit of contact and soaking up his mother’s touch. “Oh, Timothy,” she tuts. “This is for the best. And honestly, I think it’s wise for you to cut down a bit on the snacks. I’d hate to have to listen to anyone tittering at the next gala that you’re getting chubby.”

    And without another backwards glance, she turns and heads upstairs, leaving Tim alone and frozen at the bottom of the steps.

    Summary

    Dick comes around to stand fully in front of him, keeping a steadying hand on Tim’s arm. “Just because you know you’re safe intellectually doesn’t mean you always feel safe,” he says softly. “It’s okay if you don’t feel safe.”

    “But it’s not okay!” Tim bursts out. “Because if I don’t feel safe, then how is Jason supposed to feel safe? He shouldn’t have to feel uncomfortable just because my brain is screwed up!”

    There’s a faint sound by the door, barely more than an intake of breath, and his eyes snap to the no-longer empty doorway.

    Summary

    The valet opens the door as he places a ticket under the windshield, a hot breeze lazily snaking its way into the backseat. Then, he climbs out and shuts the door behind him, and the air falls as still as a crumpled quilt.

    He doesn’t so much as glance at the backseat window as he walks away, leaving Tim alone to wait.

    And that’s… that’s probably fine! His parents did say that going to a gala with them was something for big kids to do, and he already knows big kids are supposed to be able to be able to be apart from their parents without throwing a fit, so maybe this is why. Maybe waiting like this is part of every grown-up event, and that’s why he needed to be a big boy before he could come with them.

    So yes. He can be a big boy. He can wait, alone.

    It’s even kind of exciting! He’s not sure he’s ever been completely alone, without even a nanny nearby.

    He just… well, he wishes they could have left the AC on while he waits.

    Summary

    Groaning, Jason rubbed his eyes and cracked one open. As soon as he did, his pulse quickened. Something was off. This wasn’t his room. His walls weren’t painted navy blue, and he definitely didn’t have movie posters scattered across them. His initial panic settled into a strange confusion as he looked around more carefully. Why the hell was he in Dick’s room?

    OR: After an encounter with an unknown sorcerer, the boys wake up body swapped the next morning. Of course, they decide to fuck with Bruce.

    Summary

    ***PODFIC***
    Jason sighs. "You really can't keep doing this, Tim. It's fu- fudging dangerous." He's not sure how old Timmy is, but he definitely can't be over ten. Alfie would charge Jason triple for the swear jar.

    Tim shrugs. "I mean, what have I got to lose?"

    Beyond exasperated, Jason tosses his hands in the air. "I don't know, kid, your life?"

    The kid scoffs out loud. "Oh yeah, because that's worth so much."
