    Summary

    Tim Drake died.

    It wasn’t a grand affair with the brutal weight of a crowbar and a nation holding its breath. It wasn’t a disappearance steeped in mystery, nor a martyr’s end in the midst of a world-ending event, surrounded by the roar of collapsing buildings and the flash of desperate heroism.

    No. Tim’s death was smaller. Simpler. Quieter.

    Tim Drake died alone. In a space too empty to echo his final breath. Somewhere off-grid, somewhere no tracker was pinged, no alert was triggered.

    He died in a whisper, not a scream.

    And that was what it took for him to start living.

    Summary

    “Of course you have contingencies for me,” Tim says, in a tone that suggests Bruce even pretending otherwise is both annoying and an insult to Tim's intelligence. “You have contingencies for everyone.”

    “Not everyone,” Bruce says. “Not you.”

    Bruce keeps his breathing even and measured, doesn’t betray for a second the relief he feels when Tim believes him. When Tim doesn't find the uglier, unsaid truth beneath Bruce’s carefully considered words.

    The lack of contingencies for Red Robin does not mean that Batman trusts him infallibly.
    The lack of contingencies for Red Robin means that a compromised Tim Drake is one of the things Bruce fears most.

    Summary

    Right now his room and the hallways are safe.

    They will not remain that way.

    (Tim drags himself out of bed, legs twitching from a phantom reminder of the chainsaw that separated them from his body, and he wobbles as he stands up. But then his legs forget, and he is stable.

    It’s the same day to try again.)

    Lovely. Like genuinely such a neat story. I never would have thought of this as an AU

    Summary

    Something is seriously wrong with Tim—Jason just knows it. Ever since the Mad Hatter incident, Tim has been acting completely different, and the worst part is that no one believes Jason when he tells them so.

    But when the truth is eventually revealed, the whole family comes to realize that the situation is far worse than anyone could have ever predicted.
