    Summary

    The thing is, Tim wasn’t himself when he was looking for Bruce. In his grief, Tim was Red Robin, and Red Robin was built for solitude. Red Robin crossed lines that Tim Drake wouldn’t even tiptoe on. He was detached and gray and everything Tim had tried not to be as Robin. But now that Bruce is back, and Damian is Robin, and nobody really knows what he’s done- Red Robin is all he has left. And Red Robin was built for solitude.

     

    There’s something wrong with Tim. The Tim Jason knew was poised, snarky, arrogant. A stubborn-as-shit asshole. And, of course, so loyal and committed to the Bat-legacy that Jason wasn’t really sure if the kid had any hobbies outside the suit. This new Tim, this Red Robin, is someone else entirely. Someone who’s one reckless crusade away from getting himself killed.

    And Jason has a few things to say about dead Robins, Red or not.

    Or: After Bruce returns from the time stream, Tim Drake keeps the mantle of Red Robin and throws himself into international cases to avoid going home. Jason runs into him, gets a bad feeling, and follows him to the ends of the earth (literally).

    Summary

    “Say,” Jason says, “how old are you anyway, shrimp?”

    “Ten,” Tim says, but he looks away right after.

    “Ten?”

    “Okay…” Tim admits. “I'm still nine. But I'll be ten in July!”

    “That's six months away. You're nine.”

    “...and a half,” Tim mutters.

    Jason snorts. Then he sits down on the sofa next to Tim. “Here's what's going to happen here,” he says. “I'm going to get you an Uber and I'm going to track it and make sure you get back to Bristol.”

    Jason would prefer to take Tim home himself, but that puts him too close to Bruce and the others.

    “You don't know where I live!” Tim protests.

    Jason resists the urge to roll his eyes and says, “Tim. There is literally a house called Drake Manor next door to Wayne Manor. You have a Bristol accent. We met at a gala.”

    “Oh. Right.”

    Jason rubs his temples. Kids are a nightmare. Glad he's getting rid of this one.

    ***

    Jason Todd accidentally becomes a parent to the kid who's been stalking him since he came back to Gotham. Somebody's got to make sure this kid gets to be a kid.

    Summary

    Robin dies.

    Tim isn’t a little kid anymore. He understands that people - most people - die rather easily, sooner or later.

    But Robin isn’t most people.

    Robin was supposed to be magic. Like Tim.

     

    Or: Tim's mother passes down more than just a sharp wit and a strong sense of independence, and the batfam are under some severe misapprehensions.

    Summary

    Tim often experiences ‘silent’ migraines where he loses vision in his right eye. He has never felt the need to bring it up to the Bats, partially out of fear that they would permanently bench him if they found out. Besides- he manages just fine. Until one day one of his brothers notices he can’t actually see.

    Summary

    This was not the way it was supposed to go. At all.

    But obviously, the Universe is allergic to the combination of Jason Todd and well made plans.

    Red Hood has elaborate plans for vengeance - psychological warfare against Batman, prove the Replacement's worthlessness, build up his empire, etc etc. But that was before a very ill-advised rescue and an apparently very concussed Nightwing.

    What even is his life.
