    Summary

    “You should get to know the Todd boy,” Mom had insisted. “You’re at the same school – I mean, it’s practically divine providence!”

    Tim wouldn’t go that far. He’s seen Jason around a few times since he started high school this year and he generally looks mulish and tired, not to mention a foot taller than him. The job his parents have given him tonight – becoming best friends with the second Wayne heir – seems somewhere between optimistic and impossible.

    He doesn’t say any of this to his parents, however. He’s no fool.

    Or: Tim and Jason meet at a gala. Tim can’t be lonely, even if he doesn’t have any friends at school, cause he’s always surrounded by people. There. Easy. Jason, on the other hand, isn’t just lonely – he’s the street rat in a sea of rich kids, and they make sure he never forgets it. Perhaps divine providence isn’t too inaccurate after all.

    Alternatively, the one where Jason gets cast in the school musical, Tim's trying to figure out why Robin's getting bullied, and Jack and Janet Drake are on the hunt. Trouble's afoot...

    Summary

    “Filler” fics that are a part of the series that could have been their own installment but didn’t make the cut to have their own upload, so they’re shoved in here. They will vary in length, quality, and seriousness, and they take place throughout the timeline of the series and will be updated with no rhyme or reason, just as I see fit. Their place will be stated before each one so you’re not as confused.

    Fore warning: though that, while you can read these back to back, you might get spoilers if you haven’t gotten to a certain part of the series yet.

    Summary

    Tim’s eyes met Bruce’s.
    He smiled a soft sad smile.

    “Tim, don’t—”

     

    In one universe, Tim Drake is isolated, neglected, and drowning in loneliness.

    In another, Tim Drake is dead—a beloved son whose loss shattered the Bat-family, turning them colder and more dangerous.

    When these worlds collide, Tim is thrust into a reality where his family’s grief has made them unrecognizable. Overwhelmed and terrified, he runs—but this broken Bat-family won’t let him go. They’ll do whatever it takes to reclaim the boy they lost, even if they have to remake him.

    Summary

    Tim's not okay, he hasn't been for a while.

    Meanwhile:

    A boy goes missing from Damian's class, and what seems like a horrible but isolated incident unravels into something much more sinister. A serial killer and a string of missing boys.

    It's not long before the Bats' investigation becomes entirely too personal.

    Summary

    “But if I leave, you’ll do casework until I’m almost done - because I know your stalker ass is gonna watch me the whole time. Freak,” Jason smirked as Tim rolled his eyes. “And then you’re gonna bundle back up under the blanket and pretend to be asleep when we both know that’s bullshit. But you’ll yawn, and be all cutesy and shit when I know you’re a liar.”
    “I really won’t,” Tim said tiredly, and something about the vulnerable look in his eyes made Jason believe him, his arms finally uncrossing. “I'm so-” he paused, grabbing another tissue and covering his nose before sneezing in it three times. He wiped at his nose before glaring at the tissue in disgust.

    Summary

    I was kid who was stuck in his room. There isn't much more to say about it- when you're a kid and you're stuck in your room... you'll do any old shit to get out of it.

    OR

    How Tim got out of his room through galas, being 2 years ahead in school, and knowing Batman's real identity.

    Summary

    Tim knew Jason was alive, there was no body, thus no proof of death. He knew Jason was alive, because somewhere out there in the wide depth of the multiverse, he knew his spark still shone. He knew this to be true, and he was going to find him. He was going to prove that he wasn't losing his mind (even if it felt like it) that he could do this.

    But what will he do now that he found a way to travel to a whole other universe? Will he find his way to Jason? Will he be able to go home again? Will Jason even want to come with him? And why is he starting to lose so much time again?

    But more importantly, who are all these people that seem so set on making sure he is ok? He's fine. Completely fine. Even if the voices are getting worse and he feels a bit like he is breaking. He'll be fine, he just needs to get Jason home. Then everyone can be normal again.

     

    Or: the Tim focused sequel about found family and rekindling bonds. A character study into trauma, and a deep dive into Tim and Jason's complicated sibling bond.

     

    Follow up to Stray Little Bat (but works as a stand alone). Going to be super slow to update until SLB is done, but I wanted to get it in chronologically.

    Summary

    It starts off as symptoms that are ignored easily enough: a stomach ache here, some blurry vision there and maybe some overall fatigue, but nothing too bad. Tim knew his body, or at least he'd like to think he did, and he was fine. He would mention something if stuff got worse, but in the meantime he'd just employ his go to strategy: avoidance.
    ___

    OR, something is definitely off with Tim and sadly avoiding problems doesn't mean they go away. After weeks of downplaying his symptoms, things come to a head and Tim can no longer hide his discomfort. Tim is brought to the hospital after a particularly scary series of events and some shocking discoveries are made.

    Summary

    Jason would love to hide in his room and analyze the musical "Epic" with Dick for hours on end, forgetting all about everyone who thinks he's street trash. Especially Tim Drake.

    Tim just wants his hero to not hate him.

     

    In which misunderstandings abound, friends are made, and secrets can only be buried for so long.
    (I.e., my obligatory "Torment Tim Drake and get him to join the Batfamily early" fic)

    Summary

    Tim’s pretty sure that Jason hates him.

    Granted, Jason hadn’t seemed to hate him yesterday and Tim has no idea what he did to cause Jason to come to this conclusion today— (and it’s not like Tim hasn’t been racking his brain for the answer to that very question ever since he woke up)— but the signs have been there all morning and the signs never lie. The sullen mood, the closed-off body language, the vague grunts and one-word responses to Tim’s few attempts at conversation… they all point to a singular conclusion.

    Jason has finally gotten sick of him.

    ---

    Or, Jason starts acting weird while both Bruce and Alfred are out of town, and it dredges up some stuff for Tim.

    Luckily, he’s still got one big brother left he can call.

    Summary

    “You saw the body?” Jason asks. It’s a stupid question—of course Tim saw it. Tim was the one who found it, who rolled it into the carpet in the first place. But there’s a second question wrapped up in his strangled tone, which is: Are you okay after seeing the body?

    Tim just purses his lips, almost indignant. “This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a corpse before, Jason.”

    Right, Jason thinks, but it’s the first time the corpse has been your own fucking dad.

     

    -

     

    Tim is desperate to keep his father’s death a secret from Bruce at all costs. Which is how he ends up hiding a body with Jason Todd, of all people.
