Summary
“Uh… Mr. Batman, sir? Are you finally awake?”
Bruce blinked several times as his mind raced and he tried to get his bearings. He’d been… He’d been returning to the cave after patrol, and had been almost home when something huge had crashed in front of the Batmobile. He’d barely swerved out of the way in time, and then he’d gotten out to investigate it. And then he’d touched whatever it was, and it had lit up in red light, and then… then it was now. And now he was lying on the floor of a small, all-white room while a small, dark haired child sat next to him and stared with blatant curiosity.
He sat up with a groan. “Where am I?”
“Some sort of cell on an alien spaceship,” the child said, his voice sounding more annoyed than anything else. “I’ve got an escape plan, though, so don’t worry. I’ll get you out of here.”- Language:

Summary
"Father. Do not panic. I have everything under control."
Bruce immediately begins to panic, because Damian should know his father would never panic, so whatever has happened, whatever Damian claims he has under control, is undoubtedly going to make Bruce panic. Like right now. He's panicking.
But just as Bruce pushes himself to sit up on the bed, with great difficulty due to the bandages across his stomach, eyes darting over Damian to find any injuries —
Thomas Wayne, age thirty, walks through his bedroom door.
(Or; a ten step guide of things not to do when you're sent to the past, by Bruce Wayne.)

Summary
Damian was close to presenting. Jason could tell because the little shit had been trying to chew his way through his leather glove to get at his scent gland for the past five minutes. It was making the stake out he was supposed to be on a little difficult.
…
Robin, on the cusp of his first rut, seeks out Red Hood out of all of the Bats. Jason feels entirely unqualified for this.
Things escalate from there.

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?)

Bookmarker's Notes
i love this so fucking much. what a metaphor! i love characters dying over and over, it’s one of my favorite tropes because of how fucked up and raw and painful it is, but this is maybe the most salient, poignant version ive seen, it’s delicious angst. it’s tim’s damage distilled into a truly devastating one-two gutpunch. he’s the parentified people pleaser child who can’t stand to ask for what he needs, and he doesn’t know how to be cared for. he was so fucking neglected no one noticed he died, and then him coming back prevented anyone from finding out. if a kid drowns in a forest and no one’s around to hear it, did he ever really die in the first place? devastating. i fucking love it
