Summary
The first time Tim dies, he's nine years old.
That's when he meets Death. Instead of going quietly into the afterlife, Tim says no.
Each time he meets Death, he says no. Again and again and again.
This has consequences.

Summary
Jason and Bruce were at the table, between them, a boy who couldn't have been more than eight years old, with a fruit juice in his hand.
The boy was the first to notice Dick, staring at him with a look of pure adoration, "You're Dick Grayson!"
“Um… hi,” then he turned to Bruce. “Hey B, is kidnapping kids becoming a habit?”
Jason snorted, “He didn't kidnap him. This one broke into the house, stole my cookies and slept on the couch while we were out.”
“What? How? This place is full of alarms!”
The boy shrugged, “That was easy.”
Bruce looked unhappy, "Tim here is a resourceful boy..."
“You can even say I'm a half-demon. It's not an insult."

Summary
In another world, Timothy Drake would find out that his literal heros lived next door from a flip he remembered from a tragic trip to the circus.
In another world, the lonely Timothy Drake would soon become Robin after Jason Todd died, in an attempt to help Batman not meet the same tragic fate.
This is not that world.
What if just before Timothy Drake found out who Batman was, another entity took an interest in him? A dangerous entity?
And Timothy, not one to be a victim at any age, learned how to fight back? Learned how to help others fight back?
How would the story change? How would it be the same?
Would it be Batman who saves all of his children, who gives them another chance at life?
Or would it be Timothy Drake who brings together our Batfamily?

Summary
Timothy Drake-Wayne, ruthless teenaged CEO of two fortune 500 companies, vigilante extraordinaire with the alias of Red Robin swinging through Gotham’s skyline, and oh, who's also known as Dragon from the DSO—not that he wanted to be one.
He would very much like to point out that it’s his parents’ fault why and how he became a government agent in the first place, which, if Bruce finds out, he would undoubtedly have an aneurysm of epic proportions–cause of death: reckless child.
Granted, the Waynes and their friends and the honorary aunts and uncles are used to him coming and going for long periods of time because "he’s so busy running two companies, you understand," but if his family knows he’s shooting the undead in the face in his free time, well, they’ll lock him up in the manor and throw the key into the ocean.

Summary
Tim's too busy catching his breath as he lands back on the rooftop where he left his brothers that it takes him a second to realize it.
It is in a moment that Tim realizes that he has severely miscalculated. He’d been sparse regarding the details of his international trip that led to the evidence required to save Bruce from the time stream. He had near forgotten that he had changed the dynamic of the place Damian was raised. He had forgotten that the boy continued to fear the mantle he was created for. Tim had forgotten that Damian was simply a scared child who lashed out at Tim to ensure that they needed him. Tim already knew what it was like to desperately be needed in order to protect himself. He’d simply forgotten that he wasn’t the only one.
...In which Tim's secrets are not worth his family's fear.

You Cannot Breathe Enough Before Death by TerriWashere
Fandom Batman - All Media Types, Red Robin (Comics)
02 Jun 2025
Summary
There is a Russian phrase, Перед смертью не надышишься, or ‘you cannot breathe enough before death’. Tim wished he could tell you it was a cool idiom, but it was not. Although, Tim had always found the phrasing interesting even if it had a different meaning.
Because it was true, no amount of breathing could stop death from coming.

Tim is born with the ability to see and communicate with the dead. It’s both a blessing and a curse.

Summary
“We welcome you,” the cultist is saying, breathlessly. “To the mortal realm, oh father of Chaos-”
Bernard slowly raises his head, meets the cultist’s gaze, and he stutters to a stop. Tim’s breath catches, because Bernard smiles, manic and benevolent and totally devoid of humanity.
The cultist, shaking with excitement or awe, bows his head. Bernard floats down, and reaches to delicately touch the side of the mask, cupping his face.
“Stupid animal,” he says, kindly, “Why would I thank you for this?”
The cultist starts to raise his head, confused.
It’s not Bernard, says Tim’s brain, even though he already knew that, even though he was putting the pieces together the minute the knife flashed down, even though he shoved the knowledge away because it was unbearable to consider, it’s not Bernard, and it’s only that thought that keeps him from fumbling when vines explode from the cultist’s eyeball.
At the ritual altar, Bernard gets possessed by Dionysus. Nobody liked that.
