Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.
Because the "call Batman when you're in trouble" rule only applies when he's Robin, right?

Summary
Something is brewing. A great storm that could shatter life as its known. More and more often, androids are breaking free of their original programming. More and more often, androids are turning against their owners in increasingly violent ways.
And the only ones that can stop it are Wilbur Soot—the youngest lieutenant in police history and now a drunk, washed out detective—and an android of the 1NN1T model named Tommy, an advanced prototype created to solve crimes and catch rogue androids. But first they actually have to get along.
Or,
Two idiots, a robot and a depressed detective, walk into a bar. One comes out experiencing emotions he shouldn't be able to, and the other comes out with a reason to live.
Spoilers for Detroit: Become Human, but knowledge of the game isn't necessary to enjoy.

Summary
The guard stared at him for a moment, blue eyes blown wide behind his mask.
It was then the Pythia looked down at the hand outstretched between them. The prosthetic was made of intricately carved metal, covered in vines and flowers twisting together with the shimmer of enchantments reflecting in the purple glow.
And although the guard’s sleeve was covering his wrist, he knew that in the place where metal met flesh, there was a pair of dark angel wings tattooed on his skin.
He was right. This wasn’t a real guard.
This was a Deathling.
or, Wilbur is an oracle known as the Pythia, chosen to receive dreams of the future from the goddess Clara. One day, he receives a dream warning him that during a ball Emperor Schlatt is hosting, the Deathlings—terrorists who worship the goddess of Death—will launch an attack. When his warning goes ignored, he knows there's going to be consequences.
He doesn't expect one of those consequences to include him getting kidnapped by a teenager.

Summary
“Are you open?” The thing with golden eyes and a yellow sweater and a face a bit too human asks. Tommy’s hands curl into fists. “Sorry, mate,” he mutters tiredly, tearing his gaze away. A headache flares between his eyes, and his words sound nearly inaudible compared to the song of open, open, open the door- “Spots already taken.”
It blinks, and the music screeches. “I- what?”
“The spot of monster bitch that’s going to kill me, torture me, whatever. It’s been taken, and I have a store to close.”…
Or: Tommy is just trying to hunt monsters, get revenge, and then finally die in peace. That all would be a lot easier, of course, if said monsters would stop being so fucking nice.

There were certain rules in exile.
Do not speak unless spoken to.
Do not argue.
Do not be greedy.
If Tommy broke a rule, he was punished.
Simple. Easy.

Summary
The royal family of Antarctic empire isn’t exactly close.
Emperor Philza is always occupied; Tommy hasn’t seen Techno in months, and even if Wilbur is here, their relationship can be described to be strained at best.
The royal family doesn’t need to be close, however, it only needs to be balanced, like the pillars holding the country above their heads – as long as they are strong and steady, the Empire will be too. It’s the principle that held Tommy’s back straight and his shoulders broad through the years of hardships and trials of errors; through yet another formal meeting where his father’s gaze would look past him and where his brother’s words would be filled with poison that makes the deepest parts of his soul ache.
At that time, Tommy couldn't know that his family would find a replacement for him in the face of a commoner boy named Ranboo.
~🦋~
Tommy's family has replaced him. It's only fair that he gets to do the same.

Summary
Theseus, who didn’t know about him? He was the snarky hero that went from sitting in the medbays of the underground hero complex of Pogtopia, healing every hero that came in injured to fighting with the best heroes L’manberg had ever seen. He was a legend, an influence, and he always worked for the greater good!
Tommy wished that was how he saw himself too. Ice cold water dripped around him, his body screaming from the pain of the fall, though his power worked to fix him.
He couldn’t think of himself as the hero. Not as his hands stitched together the bruised and cut body of the one and only villain Siren. With both their breathing was shallow, near close to death, Tommy would be damned if he didn’t think the other was questioning why he was doing this. Even Tommy didn’t know.
Tommy was no hero, not after he had saved the life of Siren.
Or: Healer hero Tommy saves villain Wilbur and neither of them know how to handle that.
