    Summary

    Sequel to No, Todd's the Cat

    Healing is not a journey one can accomplish in a predetermined amount of time. It's isn't linear. And no one can expect it of you on any timeline but your own.

    Like rings of a tree, you will run into the wound time and time again, but it's never a step back. Each time you interact with it, it heals just a little more.

    In the safety and shelter of Tim and Jason's relationship, even the boundary stomping, unstoppable force that was Bruce Wayne didn't stand a chance.

    Summary

    Tim had spent most of his life in foster care, now attending GSU, he just wanted to get through his Bachelors, live quietly with his cat, Todd, and be grateful every day for endless coffee supplied by his coffee shop job.

    At least that was the plan till he came home from a late night shift at said coffee shop to one of Gotham's most notorious vigilantes passed out against his door.

    Tim chose to blame his lack of survival skills on not being raised in Gotham and pointedly ignored his cat's judgmental gaze when he dragged the unconscious man inside.

    Hopefully, the only trigger happy vigilante in Gotham didn't see fit to point the barrel in Tim's direction.

    Summary

    Jason comes back to Gotham with a plan, a grudge and a newfound urge to kill. Not necessarily in that order.

    Except that his intel on the current state of the city must be out of date at best, because by the time he returns, Timothy Drake owns at least a third of it.

    Summary

    Jason’s magic surges as he bares his teeth. He towers over Tim, big and imposing. Green pushes up against Tim’s shields, searching for weakness. “I don’t need a familiar,” Jason hisses.

    Tim stares him down coldly. His heart races in his chest, but Jason doesn’t need to know that. Jason needs to see that he will not be walked over, that Tim is his mother’s son and has plenty of teeth of his own.

    “Liar.”

    -

    (Or, Jason doesn't want a familiar; Tim doesn't want a bond. Bruce has other ideas.)

    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.
