Summary
Bruce calls it monitoring.
Jason calls it a leash.
Tim calls it a bad idea approximately twelve minutes before Red Hood finds the first tracker and sends him a photo of it drowned in diner cola.
Assigned to keep Jason Todd from escalating a weapons-trafficking case into a body count, Tim expects resistance. He expects threats, broken surveillance equipment, encrypted insults, and Jason being exactly as infuriating as every report says he is.
He does not expect Jason to be careful with scared kids. He does not expect Jason to trust him with dead drops, safehouses, and secrets Bruce does not get to know. He definitely does not expect to end up in Jason’s lap at five in the morning, grinding against him while case files slide off the couch.
When a corrupt Gotham councilman puts a bounty on Red Hood and targets Tim as his handler, the case turns into a trap built around everything Jason is afraid to want and everything Tim is too tired to hide.
Jason Todd does not need a leash.
Tim Drake might need to stop pretending he only follows him for the case.

Summary
“Are you an organ thief?”
Robin made a choking sound.
“An organ thief?” Batman repeated, and now he sounded a little amused.
Tim nodded once, which was a mistake, because the pier rolled unnaturally under his feet.
“Important screening question,” he said.
OR:
Tim is high on pain meds, but is he going to let that stop him from saving Batman and Robin? Of course not.

Summary
Bruce adopted Dick at eight
Jason at twelve
And Tim... Sixteen.
Sixteen. Practically grown by the time he entered Bruce’s world...Well stayed under his roof.
Sixteen: Independent, solo patrols, solo cases...He doesn't need Bruce to hover...right?
Or: Bruce is Tim's parent. Just because the boy doesn't purposely cause trouble like his last two doesn't mean that he doesn't attract it.
Or more simply: The author loves Tim's and Bruce's dynamic and wishes there were more fics about it. Here is five times Bruce was a parent to Tim and one time Tim was a son to Bruce.
