    Summary

    Tim is an unwanted android, a Robo-Child. After being sent back by his parents, his last and only hope rests in the hands of a man still grieving the loss of his own son.

    “I didn’t ask for a replacement,” Bruce barked. “I don’t want a replacement! You can go back and tell the RCO I don’t need a replacement.”

    Bruce Wayne didn’t want him. If Bruce Wayne didn’t want him, he’d be sent back and dismantled.

    Summary

    Tim wakes up inexplicably in his two-year-old body. Which: odd. But just think, how many people would kill to have an opportunity to redo their life! And Tim has so much he wants to change, so much he wants. He wants to feel important to Bruce. He wants to be Dick's favorite. He wants Jason (his childhood hero) to think he's cool. He wants Damian to need him. And really, is it manipulation if his family benefits from it?

    Or: He was halfway through the second trash can, when a startled “Good lord” caught him off guard. Tim glanced up, the rhythmic sucking of his pacifier coming to a still at the sight of a black Rolls Royce idling at the side road that lead to Wayne Manor. Alfred was staring at him from the over the car top, aghast. “Master Bruce, it’s not a raccoon.”

    From the back seat, Bruce Wayne stared at him. Tim stared back.

    Or: Tim is side tracked by his actual childish needs and wants, gets a whole bunch of his nannies fired, terrorizes his parents with a series of petty revenges, is an honest employer of one (1) newly minted murderer for hire, endears himself to – and thoroughly weirds out – the Waynes, and is generally just a petty, manipulative, vindictive, smol boy.

    Summary

    Jack,

    This letter will be delivered should I no longer be alive to tell you this myself. It is with a heavy heart that I have to admit that Timothy is not yours. I had an affair with Bruce Wayne shortly before we became a couple and over the years it has become clear that despite my hopes, he is not yours by blood. It is my hope that you will continue-…

     

    --

    Tim knocked on the heavy wooden entrance door and waited.

     

    He was woefully unprepared for the butler that opened the door. He hadn’t even thought about what he was going to say, so he blurted out the first thing that came to mind; “Surprise, it’s a boy“ he made actual jazz hands… Honestly if the butler closed the door in his face, he would deserve it.

     

    or:

    Tim never becomes Robin but can't quite manage to keep away from vigilantes entirely. A shocking discovery means his sudden move-in with the Wayne's. Will he manage to keep his identity secret?

    Summary

    His whole life, Jason’s mom had told him his dad was Bruce Wayne, but he’d never been dumb enough to actually believe it. They lived in a rundown, one-room apartment in the worst part of town, and in every single picture he’d ever seen of that rich bastard he was wearing a suit or sipping champagne worth more than everything they’d ever owned.

    But if he wasn’t Bruce Wayne’s kid, then what the hell was he doing sitting outside the man’s office in Wayne Towers?

    Summary

    Izuku's door had been open when he'd gotten home. Not his front door, nor the porch door, but his bedroom door. It was only slight, as simple as the latch not being pushed in properly, but it was enough to have Izuku's heart hammering. He didn't touch the handle, fingers hovering just above the metal, and felt the hair on the back of his neck rise.

    "Ah, you see, my baby girl gets very attached very quickly. That's my fault, I suppose I spoiled her too much. But she's been begging for her big brother, and I can see why. You're going to fit in just perfectly."

    "Ple-Please! I want to go hom-home!"

    OR: In a city run by crime, Izuku has always been told to hide his kindness. But it wasn't always that easy. How was he to know the little girl he saved from tripping was the daughter of the biggest crime organisation? And was he to know they were both obsessed with the idea of him being family?

    Summary

    His voice trembled, "You don't know what you're asking me."

    "I'm asking you to stop being a coward and keep Timothy. He needs his father when I…"

    She licked her chapped lips, then continued, "Look, if things had been different, I would never have told you the truth and we would all have continued with our lives. But Jack has decided to become a rich widower, who knows maybe he wants to marry one of his mistresses. I don't know and I don't care. What matters to me is that when I'm gone, Timothy may have someone to rely on. Can you do at least that?"

    Bruce hesitated. There were tons of reasons to say no. Too many.

    But that was a dying woman's wish. Who was he to deny it?

    "Okay, Janet," he finally gave up.

    “I will take care of Timothy.”

    She smiled weakly, "Then you're not a coward like I thought."

    -----------------

    After Jason's death, Bruce has to start over. He doesn't have the luxury of giving himself up to crime-fighting with no quarter, not with a child to take care of.

    Summary

    Jason didn't mean to get so attached to his replacement. He really didn't, but now he'll do anything for the kid. Tim tests him, he tests Tim. But in the end he's Tim's Robin and Tim is his. And neither of them will soon forget that.

    Summary

    Damian didn’t need an older brother. Tough luck, Bruce thought he didn’t need a Robin either. Look where that got him.

    Or Tim doesn’t care what Damian says. He has always wanted a baby brother to love and care for and Damian fits the bill. So what if he’s a little stabby stabby? That just gives him character.

    Summary

    As far as birthdays go, Tim's 15th birthday ranks pretty high on his list, top three at least. Sure his parents skipped out last minute and Red Hood shot and tried to kill him, but that first part is normal and that second part means that Tim got to hang out with Jason Todd for his birthday.

    Maybe he should reevaluate his rankings, because hanging out with his childhood hero definitely boosts this birthday to top two, and it's not two.

    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

    This series is meant to feel like a warm hug after a long hard cry. It’s about realizing and coming to terms with pain, fear, and grief. It’s about healing in community. It’s about living with, and despite, trauma. It’s about the power of authenticity and honesty and and doing better. It’s about breaking cycles and creating peace. It’s about choice. It’s about healthy relationships. It’s about the I share parts of me in you and you share parts of you in me and we make each other better for it. It’s about true safety, true connection, and truly unconditional love, even when the best of humans are imperfect.

    It’s also pretty funny, if I do say so myself. I hope you enjoy it!!!

    Summary

    The holidays are Tim's most favorite time of year.

    He doesn't mean that like most people mean it, where they say "holidays," but they really only celebrate the one, and all the others are just happening at the same time. Tim celebrates ALL the holidays.

    He's usually very good at keeping the various family tradition stories straight, too. He's been Jewish; he's been Christian; he's been pagan; he's been Muslim. Sometimes all at the same time. But this year...well, this year the Waynes are suddenly getting involved, and Tim starts to realize how hard it is to keep stories straight and less-than-stellar upbringings hidden when people are actually listening to you.

    It's weird, Tim decides. And he's not sure he likes it.

    (A year in the life of Tim Drake, as told through the various holiday parties of the Gotham elite and the unexpected lessons on privilege, bias, and various -isms that come with 'em. And maybe a little bit of friendship and understanding along the way, since we all know this has to end with Tim joining the Batfam early, right?)

    Summary

    Tommy died. Tommy was reincarnated as the one-note side villain in a fucking horribly written book. Tommy is trying his best to make the most of this situation and not die a painful death, especially not one by his new princely brothers or that stuffy, uptight knight.

    Tommy is probably just in straight up hell, actually.

    Or,

    Tommy gets reincarnated as Prince Theseus, the shitty brother of the two love interests, Prince Wilbur and Prince Technoblade. The same Prince Theseus who is set to die at the hands of the protagonist's third and last love interest, the knight.

    Summary

    “Oh." Blue eyes pummel his own first with fear, then confusion. It takes a moment to register that ‘oh, the Angel of Death is talking to me’. But then the man takes a shuddering breath, gaze unfocusing as he slumps against the wall, wings drooping. "Hello.”

    “Oh, fuck—!” Tommy doesn’t think before he darts forward to catch him.

    ---

    Tommy's doing his best for a sixteen-year-old living pay check to pay check, alright? But life gets a little boring. He'd take boring over getting dragged into the Syndicates business, though.

    Especially after he saved one of their lives.

    Summary

    “Aw, is Techno sad his Tommy cuddles got cut short?” Wilbur teases, rolling his eyes, “Hm, good thing we can share.”

    “Alright, how about you two wind down and put on some tv. It's been a long morning for all of us,” Techno grumbles, going off into the kitchen.

    Wilbur watches him go, the two of them not moving towards the couch. Tommy, for one, is still recovering from whatever weird mind tricks Wilbur just played on him, practically trembling in his goddamn arms like a scared dog.

    Wilbur, like the smug bastard he is, indulges Tommy, holding him close, gently stroking his hair, letting him hide his face away in his chest.

    Or Tommy dies and comes back as a Reaper to serve Phil. Wilbur and Techno are not very happy about that.

    Summary

    You’re going to leave now, and you won’t breathe a word of this to anyone,” Siren ordered. “Do you understand?”

    “Yes,” Ranboo replied, and oh, fuck, Tommy gets it now.

    Siren. The number three villain, only ranking lower than the Angel and the Blade. A slick, cunning, annoying son of a bitch who, yippee, has the ability to compel others to do anything he wants. All things he already knew, but what Tommy hadn’t known was that apparently he was the only one not affected by it.

    It seemed Tommy was left alone and unfazed by Siren’s ability, an ability that no one should be left unfazed from, and no one ever had been, not in the history of, well, ever.

    This was probably a bad thing.

    - - -

    or, 5 times Tommy hid the fact that Wilbur's powers don't work on him, and the 1 time he had to tell the truth.
