Summary
Dick drives Tim home from school so he has some time to bond with his little brother.
If he slips a mic onto Tim’s backpack strap before dropping him off at the Drake’s, that’s Dick’s business. Dick’s, and Jason’s, who, for unrelated reasons, is playing visual recon up in the trees outside the Drake property.
This is just the normal way brothers check up on each other, isn’t it?

Summary
In a world where Jason Todd survives Ethiopia, Tim Drake still finds a way to help Batman by surveilling Gotham rogues and anonymously informing to the Bats and Oracle. It's a delicate balance, to help the world's greatest detective without drawing too much of his attention, but Tim can't risk Batman discovering his parents' very illegal collection of ancient artifacts.
At least, until his parents begin behaving strangely and Tim's investigation finds him at the center of a plot that threatens the entire city. The only way to save Gotham is for Tim to reach Batman, but doing so means losing everything he knows.
Now there’s a podfic! Be sure to check it out!
