Summary
The All-Blades are in his hands without conscious thought, bursting to life in his grip. Their fire sparks and catches something that somehow wasn’t already burning. Too-close flames bloom in his periphery and a new wave of heat washes over his face. He’s already flushed all over, first degree burns just from proximity.
He sweeps the blades at the figure moving through the smoke. The figure yelps and springs back too late, but the blades pass right through them, fire through smoke.
Not what he’s after.
Or:
Apparently the All-Blades can drag Jason across dimensions.
Dick and Tim go after him.Series

Summary
Timothy moans and doesn't straighten from the wall he's leaning his forehead against with his eyes closed.
They let him sleep recently, for a couple of hours a few days ago maybe, if Damian's malfunctioning internal clock can be at all trusted. They found out it was allowed when he passed out again and his shock collar didn't trigger.
That doesn't happen often. Damian is sure they only do it to keep Timothy alive. Damian once tried to teach himself to microsleep like Father can, and he read that the longest recorded time a person has gone without sleep is eighteen days and twenty-one hours.
Damian is positive they have been here longer. If not for those very brief brakes, Timothy’s body surely would have fully shut down by now.
Or:
Damian and Tim are abducted by aliens. They only seem to care about Tim.

Summary
It takes Bruce two months to recover enough to go home. He drags himself out of Darkseid’s trap on his own, half-dead and wasted away, somewhere in Bolivia. He doesn't know who finds him or where exactly, but he wakes up in a hospital a week after he's found, and seven years after the battle that sent him tumbling through time.
--
Tim never found Bruce.
The Justice League is gone. Identities exposed, dead, in hiding.
Bruce looks for his family.
He finds Tim and Jason in Gotham.
And it's not pretty.

Summary
He taps the man's cheek, but the man doesn't so much as twitch, out cold. Damian huffs and shoves the man's hair out of his face so he can get a better look at—
Damian's heart freezes solid in his chest.
“Nightwing?” Jason asks from what feels like far, far away. “You good?”
He's older.
Damian often ruminates on the fact that this face will never exist, that Tim will forever be seventeen. He's had dreams—the kind that have him waking up with wet cheeks and the feeling that his chest has cracked open while he slept—that his little brother did get to grow up, but there are no faces in dreams.
It's that reason alone that banishes the suspicion that this might be a dream.
Timothy Drake is no longer seventeen.
Timothy Drake is twenty-three and unconscious on the filthy, cold floor of Grandfather's dungeon, tortured and starved and in bloody chains.
--
Damian finds his dead brother in a League dungeon and Tim only kind of wants to come home.Series
