Dal Segno, Al Fine (Make it Brighter) | Year 1
The Clone Wars were an aberration. They were never supposed to happen and the evil man behind what forces manipulated the Clone Wars into being was never meant to survive long enough to do much of anything significant.
At the End of Ahsoka's days, she is offered a choice the Mother: to take the rest she so thoroughly deserves, or to go back to the section of History that should never have happened to go through it all to the end again, this time armed with enough foreknowledge to even out the odds of the rigged game. It's never even half a question for her, so when she accepts, she's given yet another gift, the chance to ask the same of her dearest friends...
Year 1 covers the events of 22BBY from Christophsis to Skytop Station.
Also, this IS a Rexsoka endgame, but it's very slow burn and most of it can easily be read as nothing more than a close friendship, if you so chose, and it has plenty of special-connection drama between multiple other variations of the most popular Clone Wars pairings. (With input from readers being a significant factor in what pairings make prominent appearances!)

Museum Mishap
Middle-School Tim Drake is on a field trip to the Science Museum, but with a WE exhibition of top-secret new technologies being staged in the basement, Tim separates from his classmates and breaks into the staff-only areas by using the skills he's developed over years of stalking Batman and Robin.
Current-Robin Jason Todd catches him in the act, but he's not there to confront Tim for trespassing or truancy - he's there because there's a rumor on the street that Tim Drake knows Batman's real name. And the rumor's gaining ground, quick, drawing in the wrong kind of attention.
When a Drug-Lord decides to take the rumor seriously enough to kidnap the little genius, Jason jumps into the crossfire.
It all goes downhill from there. Fast.A (SMART) Bird's Guide to Manners
Alfred is Magic.
His sheer epic-ness shows itself clearly as he raises an unruly flock of baby birds.A new drug is sweeping through the streets, killing almost everyone it touches. GCPD's given up on finding the culprit, of even figuring out what the new drug IS, and Batman is on the case. He, Nightwing, and Robin are actively investigating with support from Batgirl and a very special stalker who's becoming part of the family faster than anyone realizes.
Except Jim Gordon... Jim Gordon is not surprised. He would be amused if not for the ridiculous caseload on his desk and the hopelessness of the new drug to which most of his cases are linked. But perhaps the new kid can help.
Red Rising
Tim doesn’t believe in heroes any more. He has no reason to. That fantasy is beyond him now.
Jason Peter Wayne-Todd is dead. Robin, the Boy Wonder, Batman's young partner… Tim’s idol… and his friend… has died. Tim had just gotten used to the idea of having a friend… and now that friend is dead. It's a fact at this point. A statistic.
Robin is Dead.
But Batman NEEDS a Robin. And since Jason died for the Crusade, since Jason LIVED for it... Tim's gonna protect that legacy no matter what. Tim's world might be ending, but he's going to ensure that Gotham stays standing in the aftermath.***
A stand alone Tim Drake becoming Robin story that follows his struggle to become an adequate replacement for the hero that he idolized - one that doesn't make him an athletic prodigy, or magic him into being awesome. This is a story that takes the grit and determination (and mild psychosis and penchant for obsessiveness) that naturally makes him awesome and shows how he applies that to becoming worthy of the Robin mantle.
It fits into the AU of this series (where Tim and Jason met while Jason was Robin), but it can easily be read without the others.
i didn't want to be (here)
.
The BatFam has reached an Impasse, with Jason running Crime Alley as Red Hood and the rest of them just kind of ignoring it as long as Hood doesn't kill outside his territory.Tim thinks it's bullshit and is hell bent on getting the family to reconcile – even if it kills him (which it probably might).
When Tim shows up on Jason's roof, punch drunk and dying, the ex-Robin winds up saving his Replacement and suddenly has to deal with the consequences of his choices (and so does everyone else)...

Trading Faces
It's been 5 years since Jason died.
It's been 4 years since he came back with a chip on his shoulder and a taste for bloodshed.
It's been 2 years since he started trying to detox from the Lazarus Pit and rejoin the Family.
It's only been a year since his last major blow-up with the Family, 9 months since the last time he injured a fellow Bat severely enough to land them on the sidelines for over a week.So this working together with Red Robin thing is still new, still fragile, and Jason is not the only one struggling to cope with it. And when a routine disruption of a smuggling operation takes an odd turn, Tim and Jason find themselves with a whole new perspective to sift through.

AKA - that stand-alone Bodyswap (taken very seriously) Fic I promised.
Multiverse Mishap | BatFam Version
One slip up in the lab has Tim Drake careening into a new world where things are rather dramatically different from the world he’s used to. Fortunately, this is not his first rodeo. He knows how to handle this nonsense, more or less at least. Unfortunately, the people of the world he’s wound up in see things a little differently. And when Dick Grayson and Jason Todd mount an ill-conceived rescue mission, things get complicated very quickly.
--
ie, Little dumbass Timmy Drake makes an oops, big time. When he gets sucked into an alternate dimension rather far removed from the one he knows, he’s mistaken for a certain missing angel by Sam and Dean Winchester and taken back to their “bat cave”… Things just spiral out from there, and between that good ol’ Winchester Luck, traditional BatFam nosiness, and a few surprise guests, that spiraling is bound to be a quick slide downhill… But just maybe, it’ll be enough to force a few extra stubborn someones to actually confront that dreaded villain known as their own emotional wellbeing (and certain, romantically inclined feelings they harbor).
