Summary
When Timothy Jackson Drake left the bat and his birds it was nothing short of a messy fight. Long-standing guesses and anger and desperation because one day he was there and then suddenly he was gone. A bug wiping the systems of him ever having existed and a simple note that he was out.
It wasn't like anyone would miss him, and he made sure he wouldn't be found for a while. It was only by accident that Dick Grayson stumbled upon him 5 years in.

Summary
“I was— I was— Red Hood p— pressed the kn— knife to my throat again and I— I—”
“Shhh, it’s alright.”
“I thought I was going to die. There was b— blood everywhere and I couldn’t—”
Bruce gripped him tightly. “You’re alright, Tim. You’re safe now. You’re safe.”
“I—” Tim wriggled out of Bruce’s hold, needing to see him again, when someone else caught his attention.
Over near the doorway, Jason stood. His brows were knitted together in worry. He looked guilty and horrified, and at the same time, like he wanted to help but was hesitating.
But all Tim could see were his glinting green eyes.

BUT WHO CAN GROW ME A NEW BROTHER? by solistrix

Summary
There's no way he could pass for Dick’s actual brother and he’s got the face of a shell-shocked cartoon mouse — but not the cutesy mice, the ones in the old 80's movies that gave Dick nightmares as a child. That plus the fact the Drake kid’s got a thick New Jersey accent he can’t shake and Dick doesn’t look grown-up enough to be toting around a preteen is sure to get people asking questions. Or worse. So Dick hauls Tim in by the strap on his backpack, steps onto the shoulder, sticks his thumb skyward toward the cloudless cornflower blue of middle America in summer, and prays that whoever pulls over lies somewhere boring on the sliding scale between serial killer and snitch.
Dick Grayson turns 20 on March 20th, Jason Todd dies on April 27th, and by May 23rd, Bruce Wayne's ward-not-son is rattling around in the bed of a 1979 Ford F-150 heading anywhere but Gotham, New Jersey. Wayne money and Bat technology can't find him, but he's got a bug-eyed shadow and a raw Robin-shaped wound to haul across the continental United States.

As they learn to work together, new feelings blossom, and the heroes soon find themselves leaning on each other for support and comfort.

“…For what?” he asked, and God, he sounded so young.
“For everything. For leaving you in that house. For letting you think you weren’t mine.”
Tim didn’t cry.
But his shoulders shook.
And after a moment, Bruce pulled him into a hug—and Tim let him.

Summary
This is based off of Alex G's song, Harvey. The two are bonding... through trauma !!
Tim tried to live up to the legacy the older one had set, but to see that same man look like he would break down because of that mantle, startled him more than he was willing to admit.
Dick had noticed his unusually upset behavior. He had noticed so much wrong to the point he wondered if he knew what he was doing was unhealthy. It hurt him more than he wanted it to.

Summary
Bruce frowned, his anger temporarily tempered by the allure of the mystery. “But she's reeking havoc on the city. She's killed hundreds at this point. And why is so focused on getting us to help Red Hood?”
“Because… it's Jason Todd.” Tim muttered.
Bruce's lip twisted. “That's enough. Get out of your uniform, and get out of the cave. I can't listen to any more of this.”
“Bruce. Seriously.”
“Jason would never attack me like this. Jason knew…” his voice cracked. “He knew I loved him.”

Summary
“I noticed Robin was new.” Clark says, settling next to him in the monitor room.
Bruce hums.
“What happened to the first one? He was a good kid.”
Rain on gravestones. Doors slamming. Handstands. Laughter in the Batmobile. Screaming. Crying. Leave me al-
Bruce clears his throat, pushing those memories down, down, down, “You never met the first Robin.” He snaps, abruptly pushing up from his chair.

Summary
“You’re into photography?” Dick looks at Tim with intrigue, finally. Something he can use to get close to the kid. He hates the way Tim stares at him. Like he’ll fly off the rails, get mad at him for simply existing, like his own presence is a burden. It makes him feel like Bruce. Tim looks away from Dick to the city night life, something foreign in his expression.
“Would you like to see it?”

It’s a few months after Tim becomes Robin and Dick hasn’t been able to bridge the gap between them, or maybe he just needed a little push to close that distance.

Warnings: this is very Tim centre and it takes a long time before he even has anything to do with the reader outside of basically stalking them trying to figure out who they are, in the classic Tim fashion.
