Summary
In a world where Jason Todd survives Ethiopia, Tim Drake still finds a way to help Batman by surveilling Gotham rogues and anonymously informing to the Bats and Oracle. It's a delicate balance, to help the world's greatest detective without drawing too much of his attention, but Tim can't risk Batman discovering his parents' very illegal collection of ancient artifacts.
At least, until his parents begin behaving strangely and Tim's investigation finds him at the center of a plot that threatens the entire city. The only way to save Gotham is for Tim to reach Batman, but doing so means losing everything he knows.
Now there’s a podfic! Be sure to check it out!

Summary
Bruce nods. “It makes the most sense. You haven’t been made, you’re the right age, and your face isn’t known in that circle. We’ll fabricate a profile and ID. You’ll go during lunch, find Everett’s bag, get the drive, and extract quietly.”
Tim just stares at him. “You want me to go undercover… as a girl?”
Steph claps her hands, grinning ear to ear. “Best day of my life.”

Waking up in your 10 year old body is… jarring to say the least.
Presented with an opportunity he can’t waste, Tim fixes everything, but at a cost no one remembers. They’ve forgotten it all.
They’ve forgotten him.
He convinces himself it's better this way...because it is.

Damian doesn't have the patience for high society, but if he has to conform, he might as well learn from the best.

Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
____
Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.
Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

You Look Like You’ve Seen A Ghost by ShootingFromAfar

Summary
"The runes are wrong."
"What does that mean for us?" Tim hisses over the beginnings of a dozen voices rising in chant.
"Nothing good." Jason states grimly, frantically racking his brain for any way out. Whatever entity is about to come out of this circle is going to be baring a fate worse than death.
Jason would know. He’s been dead.
…Actually speaking of being dead. Jason does know someone from the Ghost Zone with enough sheer audacity to help him fight what very well could be an actual demon.
With a mental ‘fuck it’, Jason begins to chant.
AKA: Jason and Danny became friends in the Ghost Zone. This is about to be everyone’s problem. Batman just wants to know who this illusive teenager is. Because he’s a meta. Obviously. Not for adoption reasons. No siree, not him.

Summary
No way, there was absolutely no way that this was happening.
He had one job, how did it go so sideways so fast?
Technoblade, the infamous supervillain Protesilaus, was not his soulmate. That was ridiculous, that was impossible!
But the man was staring with wide eyes, a glow even more obvious beneath the arm of the sweater he was wearing. It was brighter than Tommy’s, not dulled by multiple layers of fabric and a thick coat, and the sight was almost mesmerising.
It may have been more beautiful if it wasn’t such a horrifying discovery.
Or
Tommy goes on a spy mission to plant a bug on supervillain Techno, only to discover that the two are soulmates.

“They-” Techno grits out, “They keep telling me to find this kid, Tommy they’re calling him.”
Phil frowns, leaning against the fridge and squinting past the dark, waiting for his eyes to adjust, “Is it… a metaphor or something?”
“Definitely not,” the pink haired hybrid winces, “They keep saying i-”
TECHNOFORGET!

HOW COULD YOU FORGET?!
HE WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!
“-That I forgot him or something.”(Where Tommy is a street kid with the power of being forgotten, and Technoblade’s a villain who’s voices never let him forget.)
