Summary
⋆
you know what? tim's not at all affected by being rejected by his bio-dad bruce wayne, you know why? because he's young, rich, hot, totally well-adjusted, popular, not at all a mess and honestly? that's all that matters!he's not petty enough to let his daddy issues descend into cold calculated revenge because he doesn't need bruce or batman or whatever he's calling himself these days. he doesn't need him. really. because he's perfect just the way he is. he doesn't want his attention or love either. duh.
and if, let's say, he ever tried to enact said revenge plan (as a joke, obviously. he would NEVER--) he's not worried (because that would be crazy) because his mom would never let him get thrown into arkham! which, at the end of the day; that's all that matters over standard parental affection. promise.

Summary
For a long time, Tim doesn’t know his parents are dead. Maybe that makes him a bad son, for not knowing. When he reads about death, or when he watches people die in movies, their loved ones always know. There’s a gasp of pained revelation, an instinctual loss.
Tim doesn’t feel that. He wouldn’t have noticed at all, except for that he likes to keep track of the things going on in the places where his parents visit. Sometimes, it means he can ask leading questions, on their mostly-weekly phone calls, and Janet will spiral off into some tangent about these people and their lack of work ethic, and she’ll talk for minutes on end before realizing she’s still on the phone, getting bored, and then ending the call. So he keeps an alert system on his phone, for news, so they have some topics in common to talk about. It’s only luck he sees the article before anyone else does.

Summary
“You got a pen?”
Tim blinked owlishly before scrambling to grab a pen from his book bag, as if terrified Jason would change his mind in the 6 seconds he took to search. He held it out to Jason who snatched it right out of his hands.
“If we do this, we’re doing it right. You got that, Richie?" Jason snarled. "When I sign this you’re my kid!”
“I don’t do things in half measures. I’m gonna be there for every PTA meeting, every club invite, every fucking carpool you understand? I don’t need some white bread, pearl clutching bitch telling me I’m a shitty Guardian just ‘cause I didn’t ask for this.”

The only thing worse than crawling out of your own grave to find your father had replaced you with the first black haired, blue eyed preteen he could find, is said replacement begging you to sign emergency foster papers... except maybe you signing said papers and having to learn how to be a parent on the fly... Fuck it, he couldn't do any worse than Bruce.

Summary
Tim Drake was someone that knew a lot of people, both in his civilian identity and when wearing his mask. He was someone that knew a lot of people, but not someone that people truly knew. Sure, there were people in his life that knew bits and pieces of himself, but no one knew everything and very few knew the same things if he could help it.
He was a puzzle that only himself held the answer key to.
So, what if his family and friends were given a cheat sheet?
----
Or, The Batfamily and the core members of Young Justice find themselves watching Tim Drake's life...as told through songs from Epic the Musical
[Goes from him becoming Robin to the end of the Red Robin run]

Summary
Tim gets de-aged, and tells absolutely no one.
He also, in no particular order, gets therapy, does a lot of crime, channels his inner cyberbully, steals another Batmobile, moves to Metropolis (temporarily), causes an Arkham breakout, gets kidnapped, kidnaps someone else, and accidentally becomes a supervillain somewhere along the way.
Parental supervision is for losers.

Summary
Wow, what doesn't happen in this fic?
There are Amazon Prime packages delivered to Batman from Red Hood in the form of a bloody and beaten Robin. This makes Bruce, Dick, Barbara and Alfred SAD. Tim sees that it makes them SAD and decides that he does not like them being SAD and he needs to get Jason back in the family and cure him of his Lazarus Pit Menty Bs (mental breakdowns).
So he comes to the only logical solution: meet Talia Al Ghul.
But Good Dad Bruce Batman does not like that so Tim does the only other logical thing: quit being Robin (by accident).
Then he goes to meet with Talia Al Ghul.
And he comes out with an assassin son.
So now Tim has to raise a homicidal bratty 10-year-old Damian along with running and hiding from the Bats while trying to cure Jason of his green eggs and ham rages and get the family back together.
Oh hey! What's that there in the distance! *zooms camera*

Summary
Jason walks into Titans Tower expecting a fight and the satisfaction of beating down the new Robin.
He walks into a suicide instead.
(After multiple back-to-back missions, urgent reports that needed to be filled out, and the stress of a new hostile player in Gotham, sleep has not come easily for Tim. Fortunately for him however, his inability to die has given him a unique, but effective, way of dealing with insomnia.
Unfortunately for everyone else, Jason decides to invade the Titan Tower at the exact same time.)

Summary
“Oh, don’t forget your–” A few papers fell out as Dick lifted it up, revealing pictures of Nightwing, Robin and Batman in the middle of a fight with Poison Ivy. “Files.”
“Ah. Those.” Tim laughed nervously, the sharp, citrus-like taste filling the air.

Summary
Tim Drake leads a...mostly normal life, helping people get the best insurance they can afford. Soon though, he finds himself embroiled in a plot that involves Robin trying to take him down, and Batgirl possibly helping. Add to the mix Red Hood using him for information, and a strange young man walking into his office under false pretenses, Tim finds that his mostly normal life is about to completely change.
Tim knew there were worse jobs in Gotham than insurance agent, but he’s hard pressed to think of another at the moment. As he shoots off an email to a client about looking into their claim asap, he hears the glass door to the small insurance office open and watches Stephanie Brown,the goddamn Batgirl, walk into the agency and catch his eye. He puts 'masked vigilante' at the top of the list.
