Summary
“Perhaps you should consider a nap,” Damian replies, with as much sarcasm as he can muster.
For some reason, Damian’s suggestion just makes Tim laugh. Well, sleep deprivation has been known to cause a number of strange side effects, and Tim was never all that normal to begin with.
“Yeah,” he says, eyes flicking back to whatever garbage he is watching. “I’ll do my best.”
-
Tim gets hit by something, and now he can't fall asleep. Damian is not concerned, not even a little bit; he just wants Tim out of the house again, that's all. Honest.
(He is maybe a little concerned.)

Summary
“Shut up!" Damian shrieked. If he had been anyone but Damian, Tim would have said he sounded like he was about to cry. "You are self-centred and selfish and you make everything about you! Everything!”
If Tim had been thinking more clearly, it might have registered in his brain that Damian was lashing out.
“Selfish?” His voice had taken on a dangerous edge. The tension in the cave ratcheted up another notch. “I’ve been stuck being perfect. My entire life!”
Damian rolled his eyes scornfully.
Tim couldn’t do this anymore.
OR:
Tim is sleep-deprived, and as a result, Dick gets hurt. Damian is less than pleased. They argue, and Tim is just so, so tired.

Summary
Tim tugged his coat tighter around him, trying to shield against the buffeting snow. There was a storm kicking up in the mountains. This would need to be a quick trip.
Despite how many times he had done this, he still hesitated before the dark. He knew what was inside, but he couldn’t help the nerves jumping in his stomach and the chill that crawled down his spine.
His father leaned down and pulled Tim’s hood up on his head.
“Remember, don’t look them in the eyes. Don’t listen to their words.”

Summary
“Dick, look at the evidence! He’s not dead—”
“Grayson, the Pretender’s logic is not entirely without merit—”
“You’re going to take that track, Dickhead? Going to break this family up again—”
“I am trying to keep this family together!” Dick shouted. They all fell silent. “I am trying to keep this family together,” he repeated, his voice cracking.

Where Mourning Ends by Cdelphiki for nxttime
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Batman (Comics), Under the Red Hood
26 Feb 2019

Summary
What if Bruce acted like an actual parent when Jason first revealed himself after his return to Gotham? Instead of deciding that 'this changes nothing' and declaring Red Hood as his enemy? How would he act if he were responding like a parent who has been mourning the death of a child as severely as canon depicted him mourning Jason's death?
Well, like this.
Starts off at Batman #641 and strays from there.
