    Summary

    There's no way he could pass for Dick’s actual brother and he’s got the face of a shell-shocked cartoon mouse — but not the cutesy mice, the ones in the old 80's movies that gave Dick nightmares as a child. That plus the fact the Drake kid’s got a thick New Jersey accent he can’t shake and Dick doesn’t look grown-up enough to be toting around a preteen is sure to get people asking questions. Or worse. So Dick hauls Tim in by the strap on his backpack, steps onto the shoulder, sticks his thumb skyward toward the cloudless cornflower blue of middle America in summer, and prays that whoever pulls over lies somewhere boring on the sliding scale between serial killer and snitch.


    Dick Grayson turns 20 on March 20th, Jason Todd dies on April 27th, and by May 23rd, Bruce Wayne's ward-not-son is rattling around in the bed of a 1979 Ford F-150 heading anywhere but Gotham, New Jersey. Wayne money and Bat technology can't find him, but he's got a bug-eyed shadow and a raw Robin-shaped wound to haul across the continental United States.

    Summary

    Peter is fine, anyways. His boss might fire him soon, the Avengers might arrest him soon, the principal might expel him soon, but none of it has happened yet. And his dad—
    “You didn’t get my coffee,” his dad says, halfway through his burrito. He has been in a state of low, simmering irritation all evening, and apparently this is how long it took for him to find a reason to blame Peter for it.
    “You didn’t tell me to get coffee.”
    “Do you have eyes?”
    “Yes,” Peter says. “I have eyes.”
    “So you could have checked if we needed coffee without me telling you every little thing, Jesus Christ.”
    -
    Peter just wants to make it to sixteen so he can escape this life and strike out on his own. He has a plan and nothing will ruin it.
    Not even Tony Stark quite literally crashing into his life.

    Summary

    “Baby Bird?” Jason’s voice shifted, softened into something almost fragile, as if he were speaking to a child. Maybe, in his eyes, Tim was exactly that. The familiar nickname—so wrong, so tender—sent a tremor down Tim’s spine. Jason never called him that. Jason never spoke to him with warmth.

    Jason hated Tim.

    He shut his eyes tight, praying this was just a cruel dream. But then warm hands cupped his face, grounding him. A metallic clatter echoed through the cave, sharp and final. The gun had hit the floor.

    “No, no, no—don’t close those blue eyes, Baby Bird. Look at me,” this time Jason’s voice cracked into a plea. Every word trembled with fear, with a need that made Tim’s chest tighten painfully. Tim bit down on a sob, the taste of salt and blood filling his mouth, forcing himself to lift his gaze and meet the toxic green fire of Jason’s eyes once more. He could feel the tremor in Jason’s hands, the way his knees pressed into the cold floor, and it made his own body ache with tension.

    Or,

    Tim wakes up in Gotham, which looks too foreign, but he finds a home there.

    Summary

    “Why would he just take it?” Tim wailed. “Why couldn't he just ask me first?”

    “Hey, hey, it's okay,” Dick tried to soothe, his hand awkwardly hovering over Tim's back. “We'll get it back. What was in it? Do you need it for a case or something?”

    Tim stiffened.

    “Tim?”

    “It's private,” Tim muttered, wanting to die.

    “A private case? Or - “ Dick's eyes widened in realization. “Tim, do you keep a diary?”

    ***

    Since he was a kid, Tim has kept a notebook where he writes self-indulgent, made-up stories about being friends with Robin.

    Jason finds it.

    Summary

    On paper, it made sense. He couldn’t go to the police. The scandal would ruin Drake Industries. Tim didn’t particularly care about that, but his parents did, and he had a vested interest in keeping them happy and out of the country. He couldn’t go to Batman, either. While he was the placeholder Robin, he was going to hold onto the position as long as he could. That left crime, of course. All that to say, Tim now had a full time summer internship (with competitive pay!), helping Red Hood take down Drake Industries’ brand new, highly lucrative drug operation.
