Summary
Your world is gone. Your life is forfeit. Those are two things I cannot change, the voice warned him gently. I can give you another version of your family. But I must tell you, this world and the people you will see won't be the same. A silent death may be better than this fate.
Once, Tim had dreamt of silent death. Once, Tim had yearned for unearned peace.
Tim didn’t speak, and still the voice sighed. I see. I will choose a good world for you. You will fall in love with it. It will break your heart. It spoke with certainty that rang with great weight. Do you still want it?
Tim thought of family. Of loneliness. Of all that lay in between.
Forcibly, painfully, Tim parted his lips. Breath rattled free, and he croaked out, “Yes.”
Oh, child, it mourned, and then a hand pressed against his chest and a scream ripped free from his body. Like the howling of a beast.
***
Tim's family, planet, and universe are destroyed in a matter of years. He dies, too, in the end, but is given a second chance at existence in a different world. A world where Damian is the first Robin and everything is backwards.
He takes it.

Summary
"This is Damian" Talia says as she puts a hand on his shoulder. "After his allience with Bane, my father no longer considered Damian's lineage suitable for the Demon's Heir, casted him out of his family, removing him from under my protection as well."
She doesn't say more, but Tim's not stupid and he can read between the lines and the kid's, Damian's state speaks for itself. Tim is not overly familiar with the ways of the League, but he can imagine many disgruntled assasins would like to take their grudges against Ra's out on a kid who's no longer under the Demon's Head protection.
Or: Talia decides Damian can't stay with the League after the events of Legacy and Tim just happens to be in Paris at the right time to gain a little bother

Summary
"One more question Timbo; who the fuck is Empress?" because that part was still not clear by the way. Tim had a wonderful abilty to explain something without actually giving out information.
"Anita? Agent Fite's daughter? Also, you were bragging about knowing all those stuff about me during the whole Titan's Towers fight and you don't even know who Anita is?" okay, ouch, he could feel the judgement. Maybe his research was more into the events going on in Gotham and the active Titans, no need to be so judgey about it.
"She wasn't a Titan!" he defended himself. There were so many heroes that popped up while he was dead.
"She was in Young Justice! Next you tell me you don't know who Secret, Arrowette or Slobo are!"
"I… don't?"
OR: Tim actually has a social life and friends, and Jason might not know his brother as well as he thought he did
