Summary
Tim Drake had always been haunted—by Gotham’s endless cries, by the ghosts of his past, by his hunger from a love that he could not find anywhere. He was a ghost in his own family. A hungry spirit, yearning for something he couldn’t have.

Summary
Tim was 12 years old and had been a guy for as long as he could remember. That didn’t change the fact that he had a uterus, and that that uterus had chosen the worst possible time to kick it in gear. Not that any time was a good time for his uterus to kick it in gear. That was what the hormone blocker implant was for. It had done a good job preventing his chest from growing at all.
Tim had planned for the potential calcium and vitamin D deficiencies that could result from his abstaining of puberty for the time being. He had not planned for menstruation to begin despite the plastic rod chock full of histrelin acetate implanted in his arm.
He certainly hadn’t planned for it to start happening when he was in the fucking batcave.

Summary
“You can’t embarrass us like this, Timothy,” Mr. Drake quietly started to scold, before they were out of earshot.
“I think we should talk to Bruce,” Jason said next to him, voice cold and eyes hard from where they were fixed on Tim’s back.
“Yeah,” Dick said softly. “Yeah, I agree.”

Summary
When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.

“To be fair, it would not be wise for you to push me, either.”

Summary
A series of misunderstandings involving conspiracy theories and government secrets leads to a Gothamite 'connecting' Bruce Wayne to the kickboxing furries that overrun Gotham.
What follows is a truly impressive internet campaign with the sole intention of creating the most embarrassing fanfiction of WayneBat known to man. The only problem is, the deeper Jayden goes down the rabbit hole, the more they realize that other Billionaires are so, so, much worse.
Lex Luthor's ego needs a nuke anyway. Even if said nuke results in robot monkeys raiding Jayden's house because they didn't know how to use a VPN.
Lex Luthor discovers Omegaverse and mpreg, Robin commisions fanfiction out of spite, Superboy deals with being the child of divorce, and Caroline Hill becomes a New York Times Bestselling author off of a Batman x Bruce Wayne x Red Hood Love Triangle set in Regency Gotham.

it’s a long way from the crack to the break by brilliantbanshee

Summary
Tim’s spleen wasn't the only thing he had lost in the desert that night.
The Widower left him with an injury that had forever altered his life, but Tim had adjusted. He was fine, great even. His only worry was how his family would react when he eventually found Bruce and went back to Gotham.
But to his surprise (and relief), they never even mentioned it. They carried on as if everything was normal, and that's what Tim had wanted. At least, he thought it was.
Until an incident in the field reveals a secret Tim didn't even know was a secret, and now he is forced to deal with all the emotional blowback he thought he had avoided.
Or,
Tim loses a leg in the desert. He really thought his family had noticed.

Killing the Past (And Coming Back to Life) by RaaorQtpbpdy, TaraLaurel

Summary
“I… I could be Robin,” Tim suggested softly, almost not daring to say it, even when nobody alive could hear. “No one could ever replace you, but without Robin, I’m afraid of what Batman could become.”
He knew he would never measure up to Jason Todd or Dick Grayson. But anything was better than nothing, right? He was anything. Even if he was just a candle compared to the bonfires that were Dick and Jason, he could be that light to Batman's darkness. The light Batman so deeply needed.
He owed it to Robin, to Batman, to Gotham—to try.
There was that thumping again, and Tim reminded himself once more that it was probably just the rain, or something reasonable, and not the waking dead.
Too much AMC and George Romero, Tim. Pull yourself together.
