Breathing Life into a Ghost by Amaranthine_Nostalgia
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Red Robin (Comics)
04 Jul 2025

Summary
Tim Drake has always been good at noticing things—quiet patterns, missing files, truths no one else wants to see. When the city begins whispering about a new player in Gotham’s shadows, Tim listens. There’s something familiar in the way the Red Hood moves, something angry and aching beneath the surface—and Tim is certain it's Jason Todd. So he goes looking, not for a fight, but for a ghost with his brother’s face.

Summary
Dick wanted someone else to correct Damian, someone else to convince Tim to sleep, and someone else to worry about whatever was up with Jason. Dick sighed. Tomorrow he’d go back to being a dutiful older brother. For tonight, he’d deal with what he could. Jason would keep.
*Narrator voice* Jason would not, in fact, keep.
~~~
He should take stock of himself. Figure out if any of the injuries needed treatment. But—
—Desperate cries. Fingers digging into his forearm, tugging, getting weaker and weaker. Watery blue eyes filled with betrayal, just like when it happened before—
—no. NO. We can’t. We promised. STOP!—OR
Jason is horrified after he accidentally hurts Tim again. Right?
A healthy dose of whump, guilt, and misunderstandings, all because people can’t use their words. -

Tags
Summary
By choosing not to call the police ten minutes ago, and the hospital twelve minutes ago, and Bruce fifteen minutes ago, the decision has been made. There is no backing out, now.
His sweatshirt is still covered in blood, and soaked from the rain, but he ignores this. It’s fine. He’s fine. He’s the same calm, level-headed Tim he’s always been. So he plans.
Tim is a murderer. He murdered someone. It's an unchangeable, unshakeable fact. He blinks as if trying to wake up from the nightmare his life has become and it's still a fact that he must face. His life is full of horrible facts, now...but no-one else knows any of them. No-one else knows what Tim has done. And if he’s smart, and careful, no-one else ever will.
All he has to do is learn to live with it.

He's going to NAIL this survival thing so hard, Dickhead will never make fun of him again. He's not a guppy anymore and he'll prove it!
Or. Or. Two idiots meet on the ocean and realize that two idiots working together are way more likely to survive than two idiots alone.

Hallucination? Probably by Minzblatt

Summary
Tim Drake is holding it together. Barely.
He’s an orphan (which, yeah, isn’t exactly rare around here), his guardian barely acknowledges him, his place in the Batfam is… undefined at best, one of his brothers definitely wants him dead, and being Robin is not as fun as it sounds. The weight of Gotham is starting to feel a little heavier each night and sleep is a myth. Add schoolwork and the crushing loneliness of a 16-year-old who lives solo in a giant manor, and you’ve got a disaster cocktail with a cherry on top.
So when a weird floating boy shows up out of nowhere, Tim’s totally sure it’s just his overworked, sleep-deprived brain staging an intervention. A welfare hallucination. Happens.
...Still, it’s kinda nice not being alone for a change.or: Tim Drake is having a no-good, very bad mental health spiral—until a glowing boy phases through his wall. Literally.

Summary
Tim is a mess. Always has been. Chaos and synthesis and electricity are his constants. He’s St. Elmo’s fire and burning plasma. Steph had called him deranged when she walked out, and Tim hadn’t had one word to defend himself.
He needs someone strong enough to stop him, or to stop the world for him.

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.

Summary
Most of the time, Tim is fine. He doesn't like to wallow in his own misery — not only is it unbecoming of a Robin, it just shows how much of a useless beta he is, not able to balance out his own emotions. When everything becomes too much, he likes to find himself a quiet spot where he can purr to himself and take down the walls he builds around himself.
In all the years he's been alive, no one caught him yet. He never expected his little purring session in Titan's Tower would be interrupted by not one, but two crime lords alongside another Tim, and even less so for it to turn as well as it does.

Summary
“Father, I would like to-” Tim had his apology cut off as his Father turned on his heel signaling to Tim to follow him.
He led Tim to his room silently and opened the door then held his hand out to Tim. Tim handed him his phone.
“Father, please I’m sorry please” Tim pleaded as his Father backed him into his room. “No Father please speak to me, I’ll fix my error”, he began as tears welled up in his eyes.
His father closed the door and he could hear the lock slide into place.Or
Tim's parents lock him in his room he gets really cold and the early batfam help to pick up the pieces.

Summary
“I believe it when you say it, mommy.”
The world tilts on its axis. After an eternity of stillness— only a few seconds, but Tim feels the delay, any second away from Jason is intolerable— Tim’s grip on his hair inevitably tightens. He has to move his leg a little to distract himself from the painful erection in his shorts.
“Can you say that again, Jay?” Tim is breathless. Jason kisses Tim's knees carefully, warming his lips to the middle of Tim's thighs.
"Mommy?"
Or: In which Jason shows up at Tim's door for a case and gets more than he bargained for.
