Summary
Duke can feel himself becoming awkward, even as he’s more caught up with the creepiness that lies in the teen’s dead-eyed green stare.
Seriously. The guy looks dead. Sure, he’s standing and he’s breathing, but even his eye movements look slow, his skin is pale like he’s cold despite it being late spring, and his grip on his backpack straps looks more habitual than anything.
Thank god, Duke thinks, that someone got him to the manor before someone took advantage of him.
[Inspired by a tumblr post. A teenager who has no name (Danny) and seems unable or unwilling to communicate is brought to the manor. Attempts are made to break his shell, and if Danny could do it safely, he'd be panicking.]

Summary
Tim wakes up inexplicably in his two-year-old body. Which: odd. But just think, how many people would kill to have an opportunity to redo their life! And Tim has so much he wants to change, so much he wants. He wants to feel important to Bruce. He wants to be Dick's favorite. He wants Jason (his childhood hero) to think he's cool. He wants Damian to need him. And really, is it manipulation if his family benefits from it?
Or: He was halfway through the second trash can, when a startled “Good lord” caught him off guard. Tim glanced up, the rhythmic sucking of his pacifier coming to a still at the sight of a black Rolls Royce idling at the side road that lead to Wayne Manor. Alfred was staring at him from the over the car top, aghast. “Master Bruce, it’s not a raccoon.”
From the back seat, Bruce Wayne stared at him. Tim stared back.
Or: Tim is side tracked by his actual childish needs and wants, gets a whole bunch of his nannies fired, terrorizes his parents with a series of petty revenges, is an honest employer of one (1) newly minted murderer for hire, endears himself to – and thoroughly weirds out – the Waynes, and is generally just a petty, manipulative, vindictive, smol boy.

Summary
Danny would like to say for the record that it was not his fault.
In fact, Danny would say that it was entirely Clockwork's fault. After all, he wouldn't even be in this situation if it wasn't for that cryptic time god.
But what was his fault was the fact that he kept helping.
He kept taking the cash from the assholes (and damn there were a lot of assholes near where he lived) messing with the residents who lived in the area. He kept accepting their offers of food. So because of this new routine that kept him able to afford to rent out his shitty (and possibly illegal) apartment and the hunger pangs sufficiently satisfied, rumors grew.
tldr; after Clockwork dropped of Danny in Gotham he tries to make the best out of the situation which includes helping out some people. Except along the way that led to rumors that he was an up-and-coming crime boss. A rumor he was largely unaware of.
Not Abandoned! Slow updates.

Summary
Killed in Vlad’s latest scheme to woo his mother, Danny is sent adrift between worlds. Nothing but a damaged ghost core and far too little ectoplasm, Danny eventually awakes in the depths of Gotham’s sewers as an amorphous blob ghost. Sort of.
Grundy dubs him ‘baby’
Batman tries his best to facilitate the child’s unique needs.
Danny just wishes he could reform himself with eyes and a tongue. This diminished form makes getting around and doing anything at all a right pain in the butt.
8-22-24 MAJOR CHANGES
You’ll (maybe not) notice that the word count is 1k higher, and there are 1 less chapters.
The story was written fairly quickly, and I’ve reformatted the story and done a bunch of editorial work on it.Series
