Summary
The pain is no longer sharp—just deep and consuming. It throbs with his heartbeat. Every pulse reminds him he’s still here.
Still breathing.
Still inconveniently alive.
Tim considers staying right where he is up against the tree.
The bleeding will do the hard part—eventually. Hypothermia would help. He’s already soaked from the river anyway and the night air is cold enough to bite. He could close his eyes—rest maybe—stop fighting for once.
The city lights blur and flicker in the distance.
No one would know exactly where he is. Maybe not for another few hours or so. They’d search for a while, then when they find Tim maybe he won’t be here anymore.
His good hand rests limp over his stomach.
I’m so tired...
He thinks bleakly the kind of tiredness that settles into your bones and not just your muscles.Tim’s eyes flutter shut against the night. Keeping them open requires too much effort.
His breathing slows, the sound of the water trickling by keeps him semi present, and for a moment—suspended between pain and sleep—Timothy Drake genuinely hopes he doesn’t wake up.

Or: Tim gets into a motorcycle accident.

Summary
Dick Grayson hugs the way most people breathe: easy and natural, like it's a necessary part of living.
Tim's wrapped up in one now, his brother's arms all the way around his shoulders, tugging him in close.
He's never told Dick that the first hug he can remember is that day at the circus, from a stranger who would in time be family. He's never told Dick that the next hug he remembers after that is nine years later, caught up in those same strong arms. He thinks he'd rather die than admit it.
"You're not hurt?" Dick is saying. "Nothing cruel and unusual, right?"
"She only let me have one cup of coffee a day," says Tim, very dry, and Dick makes a strange sort of a sound, almost a laugh, and tightens his hold so much it sweeps Tim right off his feet.

Summary
Tim shrugs. “I know his limits. Sometimes he just needs a little push in the right direction.”
“A push,” Damian echoes incredulously. “Jason Todd needs a push. The Red Hood. The same one who tried to kill you a couple years ago.”
“You’ve also tried to kill me, to be fair.”
“To be fair, it would not be wise for you to push me, either.”

After an injury benches Tim for a few months, he and Damian are forced to cohabitate until Tim recovers. Along the way Damian learns that there’s a lot he doesn’t understand about Tim Drake, starting with his total lack of self-preservation.

Summary
In March, Tim Drake was ambushed by an unknown assailant, and brutally tortured, and left to bleed out. He's found by his team, his family, and survives. Four months later, and Tim is still searching for the truth. The truth of who tortured him? And the truth of if Bruce's confidence in his is running out. And searching for the truth is harder when you're also trying to hide the truth. The truth that you were raped.
When Tim solves the case, things don't get better. He feels lost, hopeless, and ultimately rejected when Bruce doesn't respond how he'd hoped. It leaves Tim feeling unlovable and broken. And things spiral quickly.
But, in the end, Tim's fears are alleviated, his family and friends pull through him, and he's able to come out on the other side.(DARK THEMES, read the tags. Nothing explicitly though, no scenes are graphic. Most chapters are Tim being comforted while sad, though a few are more angsty, and I'll notify them as such. Happy ending, and, because I feel the need to, I put a fluffy epilogue)
Hey, if you're reading this in a dark time, or if this triggers bad memories or impulses, Suicide Hotlines are below.

Summary
“Maybe I am crazy, maybe this is time. Maybe this is the moment before I lose it, and everything comes crashing down, and everyone finally turns against me. Just like how they did before, but now it’s including you.” Tim pointed a trembling finger at him. “Because,” a sob erupted from his throat and his eyes burned, “I don’t think I can fucking take it if even Batman, the real Batman, didn’t believe in me anymore.”
