    Summary

    The thing is, as amazing as it is to personally know the world’s best detective and both of his sidekicks, it does mean every plan Tim has ever made for how to make a good impression on his biggest heroes is useless. He’s already made first impressions. And none of them were good!

    You ever just been chilling in front of the news and found out your beloved babysitter/cool older friend, his idiot dad, and his little brother are your personal vigilante idols? Neither has Tim, but turns out there really is a first time for everything. Now he just has to figure out two things: how it's even possible for Bruce Wayne to be Batman, and how he'll survive dinner at Wayne Manor when he knows his hosts are Gotham's heroes.

    Part of 73 Votes AU, stories set in a kinder, gentler timeline than DC gave us where Jason Todd was saved just in time and Tim Drake entered his found family a few years early (see notes below).

    Summary

    Tim padded down an empty, cold hallway of his family’s home. Thunder rolled across the sky, shaking the floor beneath him and sending a shiver down his spine. He hated nights like these. He had just gotten done with his near nightly bat-fan-cam patrol, and hadn't been able to fall asleep when he had finally drug himself home. His parents were off in Italy for some expensive art show, the idea being the more art they bought, the more tax breaks they'd receive. It was all hidden under the guise of charity of course, at the end of the three night art show a portion of the proceeds would be donated. 

    A tiny portion.

    Aka, Tim Drake thinks Bruce Wayne and Batman are dating, and some how gets adopted in the process

    Summary

    After a difficult year (for many reasons) Tim goes back to Gotham to help Jason Todd reconnect with his family. Whether Jason wanted that or not, well, Tim had time to wear him down. Between the tutelage of Deathstroke and Lady Shiva, he was well equipped to handle himself as Jason's equal and hit Gotham's vigilante scene as the Buzzard. His parents were dead and the lonely cavity in his chest kept growing every day, but it didn't matter. Tim's mission could and would succeed despite his personal feelings and failures. He was fine and he had a job to do.

    Summary

    The Last Time Theory said that eventually, something will happen for the last time and you won't even remember it. Bruce couldn't remember the first time he'd held his kids. He made it his mission to remember his last.

     

    "“I’m fine. I just.” Bruce thought back to that video that had been cluttering his brain since Dick sent it to him. The sentiment of it, the truth. When was the last time I held my own kid? And even worse: Was it the last time I ever will?"

    Summary

    In which 12 year old Tim Drake keeps bribing (blackmailing) goons into kidnapping him until he gets rescued by his hero, Nightwing. Unfortunately for him, Batman and Robin (the second one, not Dick Grayson) keeps showing up instead and they seem to be weirdly concerned with his personal life

    or, Tim Drake has never been normal about his interests a single day of his life, and unfortunately for the Bats, thats them now.
