Five seconds.
As a vigilante Tim knows five seconds could be the difference between life or death. Most instances that meant in the field.

Summary
Dick wanted Tim to get a new callsign? A new moniker? Identity? That's exactly what he's going to do, at the start of his journey to find Bruce he runs into a long forgotten hero who helps him out.
Tim's always been a bit of a night owl anyway.. the name certainly fits.
or;Instead of going down a road of violence, a chance meeting with a past hero opens a new road for Tim to express himself and learn who and what kind of hero he wants to be. (Tech/Gadget/Inventor? Engineer? Timmy)

Summary
This is a really long fic I wrote on google docs, I got to 100 pages, low key lost interest, then decided to rewrite it all yay. I added stuff too. My best summary is that this is my rewriting of the Batfamily based on my limited knowledge of DCU things and my own personal headcanons and thoughts. I tried my best to represent the characters, so sorry if they're a little OOC, I tried to balance angst and chaos. Emotions are hard.
Full disclosure, it follows Tim a lot because I originally wrote this to be Tim centric, but it grew really fast from there.
I have no schedule as I'm sure you've all seen by now lmao. -

Summary
“I love you too, Tim,” he said, his voice thick with a decade of unspoken emotion, with ten months of silent, desperate prayer.
“That’s what I was going to tell you the second I got back. That was the plan. That was the only thing that kept me going in that place. The thought of coming home… to you.”

Summary
It had been months, and yet he could still feel unwanted hands dancing across his skin. Those deceptively soft touches that left him sore and covered in bruises for weeks... he swears sometimes that he was still there, that these past few months had simply been a dissociative illusion.

One thing that Danny James Fenton knew was that if anyone found him out he was dead.,
There would be no second time, no one to help him out he would be gone permanently.

Summary
Jason thought he was the only one the family failed.
Then a twelve-year-old showed up at his door, soaked to the bone and shaking, asking if he could stay.
Tim Drake was never supposed to find him — not here, not like this. But he did. And now he's asleep in Jason’s bed, curled up like he belongs there, like he’s always belonged there, and Jason can’t stop thinking about the way they all let this happen. About how a kid this small had to carry the weight of the family on his back just to keep them from falling apart.
Jason was forged in fire. Tim’s been surviving in silence.
And in the quiet, with the past still burning and the ghosts still breathing, Jason makes a promise:
He won’t let this one fall.Series

Summary
He was selfish and he knew it.
He was so selfish that he couldn't even give the Bats the courtesy of getting rid of him. He was so incredibly selfish that the only reason he didn't jump off of the very roof he was sitting on was that he wanted to see his family again. It didn't matter to him that they didn't wanna see him. Tim knew that, everyone knew that.Series

Toe to Heel by Amaranthine_Nostalgia

Summary
Tim’s been walking the edge for years — toe to heel, one foot in front of the other, balancing grief and duty like a tightrope no one ever asked him to climb.
He saved the family that never reached back. He carried the weight of their silence, their absence, their praise that came too late. He told himself it was enough just to be useful. That love could be earned if he kept giving pieces of himself away.
But rooftops are narrow. And even the best memory can blur when you're tired of standing.
Tim doesn’t plan to fall — not really.
He just wants someone to notice he’s standing on the edge.
And Jason?
Jason’s always known how to catch a falling bird.
