Summary
Bruce circles him. He’s barely broken a sweat, highly conscious of the lack of ache in his own muscles. “You need to improve your stamina,” he growls. “This isn’t good enough.”
His tone is cruel, biting.
Tim should lash out at it. He should snap back that he’s trying, that he’s doing his best, that he is improving.
Instead, he just nods, adjusting his stance. He swallows, throat audibly clicking with dehydration. “Again,” he croaks out. “Let’s do it again. I’ll get it this time.”
And Bruce should refuse. He should insist he take a break, should send him to go get something to drink, should tell him they’re done for the night so he won’t be too sore to train again tomorrow.
Instead, he matches his stance.

Little Red and the Big Bad Hood by CrzyFun

Summary
Olivia Draper had been a good idea at first. She could pass for older than Tim could pull off while masculine and women really could get into places easier if they had a pretty face. With makeup and some stylish-yet-inexpensive clothes, Olivia could pull off most undercover ops. She was Tim’s Matches Malone.
Then Hood had shown up on the scene.
-----------------------------------
When Jason met Olivia, he hadn't intended to pull a Bruce and take the scrappy teen informant under his wing. She just kept showing up where he was doing business. He had no other choice than to keep an eye on her. And kit her out with armor so she wouldn't accidentally get shot. And make sure she was being treated fairly by her mysterious boss.And, okay, maybe become her big brother.

Summary
Therapy isn't working out for Tim (possibly because he has like, way too many issues), so Dinah suggests he try music therapy instead. This turns out to be such a good idea he drafts it to his team and suddenly he's moonlighting as a rock singer in a band that's rising in popularity. Maintaining a new "secret" identity is easy enough, and he's having a lot of fun!
Unfortunately for Tim, it seems he's a bit TOO good at the secret identity thing, because his family doesn't seem to realize that it's him.
Ugh, this is just proving his point.

Summary
Tim's never seen one before, usually cooped up in his house with a servant coming by his home once a week to drop off supplies that'll keep him well fed until the next week. But he has read books, and sometimes, he imagines himself encountering one and fighting them with blades, like brave knights do to earn their glory.
A dragon bleeds out on the floors of his home, and all he has is a book, and no sword.
-
The Kingdom Of Gotham is often riddled with creatures good and bad, mostly bad. The dragons that pass over Gotham, harass the Gothamites, and pollute the air with smoke and smog are no exception, and one knows better than to confront one unless you are a hunter.
Except one night, when a dragon crashes into the home of one Timothy Drake, everything changes.

Trust Fall (Doubt You'll Catch Me) by Lovechraft
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Red Robin (Comics)

Summary
It sucked that Tim couldn't trust his family. They had either been his abusers or bystanders, but even when he tried to take himself off their hands, they clung to him like a sticky residue. Trapped, he felt like a mouse beneath a cat's paw, and he knew the only escape would be a clean-cut break with no room for interpretion.
Somehow, they made room for interpretation.
“Bruce,” Tim rasped, his discarded Red Robin suit a thousand pound weight in his hands, clean and ready to go in its case. “You don’t even *like* me.”
The truth dangled between them like a spider’s web clinging to separate walls.To no one’s shock, Batman said nothing. The only sounds in the cave were the shuffling of bats and Tim’s bike rumbling softly at the entrance, waiting patiently for him to make his escape.

Summary
Tim Drake is good at surviving.
He knows how to keep his head down, how to read a room, how to make himself useful enough to be tolerated. Between school, a café job, and a home that never quite feels like one, Tim doesn’t expect much more than that.
Babysitting Damian Wayne was supposed to be simple. Temporary. A paycheck.
Instead, Tim finds himself pulled into a family that notices too much, bruises that linger, smiles that don’t reach his eyes, silences that say more than words ever could.
The Batfamily sees one of their own.
And Tim?
Tim is learning what it feels like when someone stays.- Language:

Summary
"If Todd skipped out on too many family meals, Grayson would be marching over to one of his safe houses and dragging him to the manor. If Brown or Cain was gone on a mission for too long, the family would make time for them to relax and Pennyworth would make their favorite meals to entice them to dinner. If Damian was too far into his head and feeling frustrated they would give him enough space that he didn't feel coddled but also open that door for him and eventually force him out of his own head.
But Drake... He hadn't come to family dinner for three months now, Todd never made it to the two month mark. Drake hasn't come back to the manor after a mission for anything longer than a sitrep and debrief. (Of which Drake consistently lied about and avoided medical attention every night and not once did anyone call him on it). And Drake was always in his own head and no one seemed to bother to pull him out. No one coddled, no open doors, no forcing him to float, just... letting him drown."

Or Damian notices Tim is treated differently than the rest of the family and wants to know why and he's determined to bring him back through bonding.- Language:

Summary
Child neglect isn't all bad, Tim tells himself when his parents sends apologies and mail-delivered gifts and an increased credit line for his 10th birthday. None of the other ten-year-olds have this kind of independence -- even Robin has a bedtime. And he's heard from Ives that his parents limit his "screentime", which sounds quite barbaric. So this is fine, really. He's ten and will be starting eighth grade in the fall. He doesn't need his parents in order to thrive, he can grow on his own, in the shadow of their neglect and inattention. He can be their set-it-and-forget-it kid.
-----
Tim is doing great being an independent vigilante, he's fine! He doesn't need help, he's definitely not estranged from the family -- he's just being independent.
Good thing he's part of a family of detectives who have their own ways of reaching out.
Featuring two powerpoints, one casefile, half a contract, a roomba, and several hugs.

Summary
Tim Drake knows that crying yields no data. He learned that at six years old in an empty house, illuminated only by the blue light of a computer screen.
Now, he’s an exhausted student by day and a digital poltergeist by night. He doesn't just "watch" the Wayne family, he optimizes them. He hacks their coffee machines, stabilizes their tactical HUDs, and leaves anonymous medical alerts on the Bat-computer when Bruce’s cortisol levels spike. It’s not stalking if it’s protective, right?
But when Jason Todd corners him in the library to argue about The Great Gatsby, Tim realizes that maintaining a firewall is a lot harder when the target is sitting across the table. It turns out, you can’t calculate your way out of a hug, and the Waynes are very, very persistent.
