Summary
Tim Drake was never Robin. He couldn’t be—not with a body broken by a decade of the worst abuse Gotham has ever seen. The others thinks he's a spoiled, useless tag-along, clinging to Bruce and Alfred for attention. That is, until a documentary airs one night and the horrifying truth about Tim’s past comes to light—too late. Now they must face the brutal reality: the boy upstairs wasn’t weak. He was surviving. And they never saw him at all.

Summary
Part 2 of my writing series based on the 300 Writing Prompts.
Prompt #222: How Clean is your house right now?
After the massacre at the Macher house, Billy and Stu set the stage for their own deaths. With Sidney and the others gone, Neil Prescott becomes the scapegoat, framed by forged handwriting, planted evidence, and a trail designed to sell the story. Wounded and bleeding, the boys fight to erase every trace of their survival: bleaching the floors, washing the robes, stitching their own flesh back together.
The world believes they’re dead. But leaving Woodsboro means living like ghosts.

Summary
Bruce is back. Damian’s Robin. Dick’s smiling again. Gotham’s whole.
And somehow, that makes Tim feel like a ghost haunting the Manor.
He works, he watches, he vanishes. One granola bar at a time, one skipped meal, one quiet apology that never comes. Until the night the family finally realizes he’s been breaking right in front of them.

Summary
Returning to the apartment he once fled, Wu Suo Wei faces the letters Chi Cheng left behind - and the love he never learned to hold.
But grief is strange; it rewrites memories, invents new ones, and turns guilt into ghosts that feel painfully real.
