    Summary

    Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne is keeping a secret from his family. A big one. A gigantic ginormous huge one. His secret is…he was born as a meta. Ever since he was little he had the ability to peek into alternate dimensions. He refers to it as ‘glimpsing’, at least that’s what he calls it in his head, as he would never in a million years tell anybody about his power out loud, let alone get into the semantics of it all.

    This is my first fic, so like that's cool ig
    I only made it bc the people on tumblr really wanted it so...

    Summary

    “The Red Hood has been good for Gotham,” Robin continued. “Crime in Park Row decreased by sixty one percent almost as soon as you showed up, and that’s even taking into account all the crime you commit. Drug overdoses have decreased by twenty two percent in adults and seventy nine percent in minors. Homeless minors are ninety two percent less likely to—”

    “Kid,” Jason interrupted. “Enough statistics. What the hell is this about?”

    Robin slowly lowered the tablet with his powerpoint presentation and looked up at Red Hood.

    “You care about Gotham,” Robin summarised. “Gotham needs Batman. Batman is missing and so is Nightwing. We need you to fill in for Batman.”

    “You want me to cover Batman’s patrols?” Jason clarified.

    “No,” Robin said. “I want you to be Batman.”

    Jason bluescreened.

     

    (Or: Batman and Nightwing mysteriously disappear before Red Hood has even started antagonising them, Robin is desperate, Gotham needs Batman, and Red Hood is Batman-Shaped.)

    Summary

    One night as he’s out in Gotham, stalking the rooftops and prowling through the alleyways, handing out money and food to the homeless, one of the brave street kids asks. “What’s your name?”

    He hesitates so long that the kid finally says. “You don’t have to tell me, I was just curious.”

    “Alvin.” It slips out of his mouth before he can think too hard about it. “My name is Alvin.”

    He’s not certain why he says it, perhaps the name Alvin was on his mind after Spencer saw the movie with the chipmunks, odd since Simon was his favorite character.

    But whatever the reason, it’s freeing. Not having to put himself in the box that is Spencer or Tim, Alvin can be him, all of him.

     

    Or, Tim and Spencer is one person living in two universes

    Summary

    Tim's parents faked their deaths and fled the country years ago, but neglected to take him with them. He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
    His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.

    or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

    Summary

    Jason didn’t know when it started. If he thought about it, he remembered the bright light that surrounded his mom in her last days. After that, he noticed the way some people lit up, outlined in a growing brightness that emitted from the edges of their beings. The brighter the individual, the closer they were to death.

    At the parties that Bruce insisted on dragging him to, he expected the dim light from the tired old businessmen who drank too much and were limping closer to their ends, glowing a little more every time Jason saw them.

    What he did not expect was for the 12-year-old neighbor kid to light up like a damn Christmas tree the second Jason laid his eyes on him.

    Summary

    "Will I die from this? No. Does he know that? Also no. When I revive from this stupid attack I’m going to poison his breakfast, stop holding back when we spar, hide the hot chocolate, and move everything an inch to the left until he starts to lose his mind."

    Summary

    Your Name Is Tim

    You are safe here. If you are scared, that is okay. If you do not remember anything, that is okay too. Call any of these numbers, they will answer and they will explain everything.
    -
    After Tim sustains a significant head injury, he goes through phases of amnesia and confusion and less commonly lucidity, and both he and his family have to work out ways to mitigate his symptoms while not knowing if this is simply his new normal, and they find that what helps most is a note he keeps in his pocket that he has trained himself to look for even when he doesn't remember why.

    Summary

    in the middle of Bruce's disappearance, overwhelmed entirely by the pressure and his growing depression, Tim Drake decides to end his life.

    clockwork, realizing that this happening would destroy that timeline, interferes.

    what happens after that? well, he's not entirely sure- he'll cross that bridge when he gets to it.

    Summary

    Tim could not be more JJ then Tim, because then he wasn’t Tim, but he should be over this by now. It was years ago.

    Only Alfred and Bruce knew. Bruce because he was there, to see the real JJ (where his skin was pale, his lips were red in a twisted grin, and his hair was a messy green. Don’t you miss that? Belonging to someone?).

    ...And Alfred had dealt with the aftermath, making him Tim again. (but you are not Tim. Tim is dead. This isn’t your room. This isn’t your house. They aren’t your parents. Are you done playing pretend?)

    Tim was JJ, and JJ was Tim. That was the only thing that made sense.
    ---
    OR, 5 times JJ is in front, 1 time he gets caught.
    (Didn't mean to make it DID, but it just felt cruel to shove JJ away as the bad guy when JJ is as much of a person as Tim so.)

    Summary

    When Tim read Ella Enchanted for the first time, a lot of things had made sense. Not the whole fairy gift thing, or ogres or dead mothers or evil stepmother, but the curse of obedience fell into place quite well. Tim did not mean that figuratively.

     

    Tim has a curse. It's always been like that, since he was a small child. Things change, and fast, when Jason finds out, promising to help. Tim doesn't know what to think. And sometimes, Jason enjoys his obedience a bit too much.

    Summary

    Jason had never been the best at strategy. He could certainly come up with a usable plan, he just. Didn’t always follow through. Especially when he was pissed.

    See the unconscious Robin tied up in the trunk of his stolen van.

     

    Aka, Jason accidentally kidnaps Tim during Titan's Tower. It's a bit rocky, but you know the Batfam. Things tend to work out.

    Summary

    Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.

    When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.

    But most of all, Tim is alone.

    (If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

    Summary

    Gotham was built on a cave system. Batman has referenced a Bat Cave before. Tim is currently in the cave system. He is in the cave system that he entered from Drake Manor. Drake Manor is right next door to where Batman- The Bruce Wayne- lives. Holy Cavern, Batman! Tim had just accidentally wandered into the Bat Cave’s cave system.

    OR

    Tim, having found a weird hole after a storm, decides to go exploring ignoring the fact that This Is Gotham and They Probably Have Cursed Stuff Down There.

    Luckily, it was just a cave system that spans the entire Gotham underground. Unluckily, Tim is a very curious child.

    Summary

    Ra’s face is frozen on the screen, lips curled upward in smug, victorious pleasure.

    Tim doesn’t know how to look away.

    Dick is moving, grabbing Damian where he’s come up to see what’s going on as well. He puts his body between the boy and the screen, ignoring his startled protest. “Jason,” he snaps. “Take him into the manor, now.”

    Tim lets out a shuddery breath, grabbing the back of the second chair and dropping into it, hand still linked with Cass’s.

    His chest feels hollow.

    “Tim - ” Bruce says hoarsely, but he cuts him off.

    “Where did you get this footage?” he asks, voice flat and empty.

    Bruce swallows. “It was sent to me,” he says quietly.

    He huffs a laugh. It’s an awful, cored-out sound. “By Ra’s,” he murmurs.

    Summary

    Tim gets very, very good at hiding. He gets even better at photography. 
    The thing he gets best at? 
    Talking to the ghosts.

    ————

    Jason Todd stands tall on shaking legs, his arms full of another boy, thinner, with closed eyes and ghost-gray skin. Bloody hands, absolutely covered in dirt--so is Jason, now that Alfred thinks of it--

    ”Alfie,” Jason croaks. “Alfie, help. I think he’s dying.”

    ”Oh Good Lord in Heaven,” Alfred chokes out, flings the door wide, and pulls them both in.

    —————

    In which Tim is magic, secrets are kept, prey is stalked, and the world might just be put a bit more to rights before the end.
