Whatever happened to imaginary friends? by CoffeeTrees

Summary
Tim, the ever vigilant (always awake and never giving himself a break) vigilante, gets word of a drug bust going down. One he just so happens to be the only one available to stop. Which happens to be taking place in the very early hours of his birthday. Of course he goes on the highly dangerous bust alone. What could happen?
Or: Tim is used to being the Robin that gets thing handled, that doesn't need Batman to come rescue him. Bruce Wayne had made it very clear in the early days that Tim was not his son. Alfred Pennyworth was cold, allowing only the politeness and distance to show through his Iron Wall. Dick Grayson treated him the way he wished he'd treated his brother, Jason.
Tim was fine with this. He wasn't a child. Even if he wished for more of the small slivers of love the Wayne family were just starting to give him, he wouldn't dare take Jason Todd's place. He just hoped the support he provided for the grieving family would make Jason proud. But Jason Todd came back, and he sure made it known he wasn't. He made sure Tim knew exactly what he thought of the cuckoo in his family.
Now, the Wayne family has their lost son back and Tim has a job to do. Just, not in this dimension?

Summary
Running away from your problems is never the solution, but maybe this wasn’t running away. Maybe it was removing himself from the family that he hurt with his “death”. Who he couldn’t continue to burden, especially with something like this. Maybe this type of cancer wasn’t a death sentence, but it definitely would make them feel obligated to care about him again. And as much as he wanted to go home, he didn’t want the reason to be out of obligation and not love.
He’d always wanted to visit Maine anyway.
Or
Dick Grayson was diagnosed shortly after he came back from Spyral. His family is still angry, and he's alone dealing with Leukemia. This was his punishment. Dying all alone, his body killing itself.
But maybe it's not. Because maybe the Coopers are exactly the people he needs to support him, and help him find his way back home. -

There was nothing to mark the night as different, Tim will later think. Of course, there never is. You don’t get warnings. Not in real life. There aren’t any omens.
Just...just his big brother going out on patrol...and not coming back home.
Because zombie apocalypses are like that.

Summary
Dick is fine. Really. He's just having a rough day. Week. Month. Okay maybe he's not as fine as he likes to believe. But his family needs him. He needs to keep everything from falling apart. But deep down, he's fundamentally broken. He taints everything he touches. He's poison.
Jason knows he's not okay. Has he ever been? He doubts it. He's hurting, and he's one bad day away from putting a bullet in his head. It doesn't matter, though, because no one cares about him. They care about their Jason, their little Robin. Bruce's dead son. Not him.
Tim doesn't have time to not be okay. He needs to keep going, keep fighting. He can't stop. He can't. He needs to prove himself. He needs to be enough.
Damian has spent his entire life knowing exactly who he is. A living superweapon, grandson of Ra's Al Ghul, assassin with surgical precision. But who is he? Who is Damian Wayne? He's starting to realize he doesn't know.
Or: 11k< of me projecting my trauma/trauma related emotions onto batbros because I am not good at processing this shit normally.
EDIT: I keep having to change the number every time I post a new chapter lmao. Started at 4k<. Let's see how much trauma I can fit into this bad boy

They couldn't wait to see the look on Damian's face when he realizes that they know every little secret he has. Who knows. Maybe they can finally get the brat to shut up or if they're lucky, they might be able to force him to quit being Robin.
Or that one time Damian's teammates and brothers decide to spike his drink so they could use Damian's secrets against him.
