Summary
Tim Drake has a list of problems that only seems to be getting longer. In fact, his list is starting to look dangerously similar to a CVS receipt...
Or... My take on the Batfam where I follow very little rules but have lots of fun doing not doing so ☺️

Summary
Tim’s mind raced. If they could manipulate the past, they could manipulate the future. The timeline wasn’t fixed—events could be rewritten. He could rewrite them.
For the first time since the explosion, a sliver of hope cut through the haze of grief.

Summary
Bernard Dowd was, frankly, lucky to have survived the Dionysus pain cult quest. Lucky him, he got to be the event depicted on the camp bead. Unlucky him, that means when Percy takes up a quest that puts him in Gotham City, Bernard ends up on his list of 'people to ask to take up the quest'.
Well. Bernard is done with quests. No more. Not ever again. Just chilling with his boyfriend, getting through college, and living in a Godless city as a demigod on his agenda. He will absolutely not, under any circumstances, go questing.

Summary
In a shattered future, haunted by the memory of a family he couldn't save, Tim Drake is ready to let go. But his end is interrupted by two other broken heroes, Adrien Agreste and Mark Grayson, boys who lost everything in their own worlds. They are all, in a way, already dead.
A miracle, a desperate wish on a mysterious artifact, grants them a second chance. They are ripped from their dying moments and thrust into the past, into the bodies of 8-year-old boys. They are found and adopted by Janet and Jack Drake, whose wealth provides a roof, but whose emotional neglect makes their house a cold, new kind of prison.
Trapped together, they form a fragile, desperate brotherhood. They are a team of ghosts with a single mission: to prevent the future that haunts them all. They must navigate a toxic home while saving the family they never had, not just from outside threats, but from the echoes of their own pasts. Their journey is a fight for a future they thought they'd lost, and for a family forged in sorrow, but bound by hope.

Summary
One of Gotham City’s iconic “Robins”, Tim Drake was transported to a strange medieval world with no memory of how he arrived. Mistaken for a rebel soldier by the Imperial Legion, he found himself facing execution in the town of Helgen. His life was ultimately spared not by mercy or justice, but by the cataclysmic appearance of a black dragon that razed the town of Helgen and left him with agonizing physical and psychological wounds.
As he struggles to survive in this new land of Skyrim, Tim's main goal is to find a way home. However, this mission is continually derailed by the needs of the locals, his own near crippling injuries, and the looming threat of the dragon he had the misfortune to survive.

Summary
‘The woman walks up to the glass wall dividing them. She places her hand on it, and sighs. It's then that Joker Junior realises how he knows her, she knows it too. as a smile creeps up her lips as she sees his eyes widen. She pulls something from her pocket, a grenade. She then spits a glowing green orb out of her mouth and laughs, as she does so the guard becomes much more alert. Though it doesn't matter. Her bun falls into a braid reaching down to the floor. She opens the top of the grenade, placing the orb inside as it changes to a teal. “Now the fun starts” she muses, as she pulls the trigger and the room goes up in a cloud of blue.’
Aka; Harley Quinn got pregnant with Joker’s child, but due to the radiation surrounding the carnival, said child is seen as useless. So Harley finds a replacement to make up for it, Tim drake, the third Robin.
This is the adventures of joker junior and punchline as they find themselves surrounded by bats that seem to know more about them then they are letting on

Summary
Jason doesn’t like how Tim has gone limp, how his lidded eyes are staring unseeing at a point in the middle distance. How he’s just sort of… accepting whatever’s happening to him.
Well, at least it’s making Jason’s job easier. He works his way up to the neck clamp (he refuses to even think the word collar), reaching in before he can hesitate. He makes quick work of the lock, and the clamp clicks open. It takes Tim a second to realize, but when he registers that he’s free, he’s up. Literally, his newly freed wings flap and he ascends. Shit, so those aren’t just for show.
or:
Tim has been missing for three months, lost in his desperate attempts to rescue Bruce.
He comes back... different.

Summary
“You know it’s like, what? Three in the morning?”
Tim nods, eyes stinging, guilt stirring in his chest. His throat feels too tight to shape an answer, words lodged like stones he can’t get past.
Jason studies him for another second, and whatever he sees must be enough. He exhales, stepping back with a small wave of his hand. “C’mon kid, come in before you freeze.”

Summary
“You’re not making any sense, bud. Come on, loop me in, here. What’s going on?”
Tim laughs. It’s a jaded sound, bitter and flat, but it morphs at the end into something closer to delirious. It doesn't sound anything like him. Something is wrong with Tim. “Loop. That’s the problem. Over and over and over and over and over and---- --

Summary
Tim Drake was someone that knew a lot of people, both in his civilian identity and when wearing his mask. He was someone that knew a lot of people, but not someone that people truly knew. Sure, there were people in his life that knew bits and pieces of himself, but no one knew everything and very few knew the same things if he could help it.
He was a puzzle that only himself held the answer key to.
So, what if his family and friends were given a cheat sheet?

Or, The Batfamily and the core members of Young Justice find themselves watching Tim Drake's life...as told through songs from Epic the Musical

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.

Tim has... brain roommates. Annoying little shits who don't pay rent but make him do things like—god forbid—work at WE! When he could be a trust fund baby?!!
Okay, Tim has OSDD. He's the host of a system.
Usually in denial about said system, but still. This is... his life, he supposes.
(Meanwhile, Helena want to live her life, too, Ali is three seconds away from murdering a board member, Carrie is in her room pretending she doesn't exist, and Tiffany may have just crashed her third motorcycle this week to spite RR. Yeah, things are going great.)

Summary
Tim Drake never smiled.
It was something Jason had noticed fairly early after rejoining the family. The most you would ever get was an eyebrow raise or a small twitch in the corner of his mouth, something that could barely be called a smirk. Even those were few and far between.
