19 Jun 2026
Summary
When ten year old Tim Drake is paired with the freshly adopted, thirteen year old Jason Todd for a school project, he is ecstatic. He just hopes he can keep his inner fanboy under control. At the same time, his parents’ trips are increasing in length, and Tim is handling it like a champ! Who needs parental supervision? Not him! Although, a little company might be nice…
Meanwhile, Jason is still half convinced that his adoption is an elaborate human trafficking scheme, but this Robin gig is pretty cool. And his new school may be full of rich jerks, but the neighbor kid isn’t too bad. Having an adult trying to take care of him is a bit of an adjustment, but one he might just be able to get used to.

Settle Our Bones Anthology by motleyfam, justbeyondstars, batmoniker, JBS_Forever
Fandoms: Batman (Comics), Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics), Super Sons (Comics)
06 Jun 2026
Summary
A series where Jason never dies, but the Waynes’ weird neighbor kid gets strung along for the ride all the same.
(Alternatively: that one series where Tim Drake gradually develops a file at Gotham General as thick as a phonebook because he's quite possibly the Unluckiest Boy in the World.)

5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home by motleyfam
Tim is good at galas.
No, scratch that—Tim is great at galas. He’s been attending them ever since the age of three, when his parents first stuffed him into his little Gymboree tuxedo and gave him a stern lecture about ‘sitting quietly’ and ‘speaking when spoken to.’ He knows all the rules: what to wear, how to stand, when to smile, what to say, what not to say. He knows how to come across as polite and intelligent and charming, and on absolutely any other day, he would be rocking this.
---
Or, my take on a ‘Tim Joins the Family Early’ AU, told through a series of sleepovers—most of which are unplanned.
Featuring pre-teen Tim, Alive!Jason, and a whole lot of hurt/comfort.
Gala-Bye by motleyfam
Jason Todd hates galas.
Bruce Wayne loves his ridiculous son.
Mess of Me by motleyfam
Jack takes him trick-or-treating.
Tim is dressed in a simple black bodysuit with a white skeleton printed on top. He’d wanted to go as a stormtrooper—it’s all he’s been talking about at school for weeks, ever since he first saw the films—but his parents didn’t get the chance to pick up a costume until late that afternoon, and the options at Halloween City at four p.m. on October 31st are a bit sparse.
(It was this or a gigantic carrot, and even at seven years old, Tim has some dignity to maintain.)
---
Poor Timmy isn't having the best of Halloweens.
Shoot from the Hip by motleyfam
Objectively, this time isn’t even that bad. The bullet really only grazed his side. The mark it left is long and gnarly-looking, and he’s sure it’s going to bruise like a bitch tomorrow, but the actual damage to his flesh is pretty superficial. A saline wash, a quick row of stitches, a sterile dressing, and a couple painkillers, and he should be good to go.
…Which is why Dick neglects to mention this extremely minor injury during his usual post-patrol check-in with Agent A.
By Necessity by motleyfam
An alternative ending to chapter 4 of 5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home.
(AKA, the part where there’s an ice storm and a massive tree limb takes out the Drakes’ living room window.)
Kansaws by motleyfam
Tim blinks.
Batman has a buddy with a chainsaw??

Is All Anger Sin? by motleyfam
Now, Jason likes Tim, don’t get him wrong, but that kid’s got the self-preservation instincts of a wet paper towel. And not even the premium paper towels Alfred buys at Costco—that cheap shit you get at the Dollar Tree. The kid’s basically allergic to asking for help, and it’s fucking sad, okay?
Case in point, the fact that he’s currently bleeding all over the damn floor and still insisting that they don’t bother Bruce.
Well fuck that shit.

An added scene expanding on chapter 5 of 5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home.Reverse Psychology by motleyfam
Jason leans back, crossing his arms over his chest. “Well, what if we don’t want you to clean up?”
Tim just blinks at him.
(An alternative ending to one of the scenes in chapter 5 of 5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home.)
First Watch by motleyfam
“I have a pretty bad headache, so I think I just want to go to bed.”
Like any good excuse, Tim’s claim is simple, succinct, and rooted in a half-truth; his head does hurt, though he wouldn’t really call it ‘bad’—it’s hurting about the normal amount for someone who’s spent the last eight hours as a tightly coiled ball of anxiety. It should have worked perfectly.
Unfortunately for Tim, he just forgot one small fact: that the Waynes are literally the most dramatic people on the planet.

An added scene expanding on chapter 5 of 5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home.Where Blame is Due by batmoniker & motleyfam
Jason rides in the ambulance with Tim.
He doesn’t think he’s allowed to, technically, since he isn’t family and both of them are minors, but he’s not about to take no for an answer. Luckily, or perhaps frighteningly, the paramedics are too busy to argue with him. They’re barking orders back and forth to each other, rattling off vitals, running IV and oxygen lines, applying cooling blankets. Tim’s temperature is over 105 degrees and his blood pressure is dangerously low. They’re worried about seizures.
They’re also worried about organ failure.
–--
The immediate aftermath of Jason finding Tim in the final chapter of 5 Times Tim Spends the Night at Wayne Manor + 1 Time He Comes Home, told from three different points of view.
A Jumbo Miscalculation by justbeyondstars & motleyfam
Suddenly a new voice, gruffer, deeper, says, “What are you doing?” and Tim goes cold all over. That’s Bruce. That’s Bruce speaking a full sentence for the first time today and of course it’s when Tim is hurling his guts out in the bathroom and didn’t want him to know about it.
Shit.
“Picking the lock,” Jason says, like it’s obvious. “Didn’t think you’d appreciate me breaking the door down. I can, if you want. I am absolutely fine with that option actually.”
–--
Bruce is in a bad mood after a case doesn’t go entirely to plan, and Tim is determined not to do anything to make it worse.
(Unfortunately, his shrimp allergy didn’t get that memo.)DANton-ten-six by motleyfam
Ten weeks into Tim’s new foster placement with the Waynes, he wakes up feeling kind of lousy.
His stomach started hurting sometime after dinner the night before, which he initially chalked up to the heaviness of Alfred’s chicken fettuccine; that man does not skimp on the heavy cream. It’s why he only ever makes it when Dick—the family’s resident lactose intolerant dumbass, as Jason so lovingly puts it—is confirmed to be staying in Bludhaven for the evening.
(Not that it ever works. Dick’s been known to sniff out leftovers from the fridge days later like a bloodhound, consequences to his delicate digestive system be damned.)
Anyway...

Or, in which Tim gets Sick™, but actually reaches out for help for once, and in return his new family comes in clutch.

Summary
“Uh-huh. Sure. Okay.” Peter doesn’t know if it’s better to believe the stalker or not. “And what’s your deal, Tim? Why are you squatting on my fire escape like a raccoon?”
“I don’t know.”
Peter waits. “...You don’t know.”
“Not really. I just — ended up here.” Tim’s brow furrows. “You’re the only one who can see me, aren’t you?”
Or: Peter Parker is being haunted by an amnesiac ghost named Tim — who may or may not have once been a hero.

Summary
When they accidentally cause trouble for the wrong mob boss, Jack and Janet Drake come up with a completely flawless plan: return to Gotham to retrieve their son, fake the deaths of their entire family, then flee to Belgium. Tim can see a number of issues with this, mainly that (1) it's the stupidest thing he's ever heard, (2) his parents are definitely lying to him about something, and (3) Belgium. With all to play for, it's now up to Tim to create a believable narrative and avoid getting caught by any means necessary - even if that means traumatising the odd vigilante or two. He's willing to do whatever it takes to protect his family.
(But... which family?)

Discovery (Enter the Drake, pt. 1) by Jacey (OncillaBrigade)
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)
11 Jul 2024
Summary
The thing is, as amazing as it is to personally know the world’s best detective and both of his sidekicks, it does mean every plan Tim has ever made for how to make a good impression on his biggest heroes is useless. He’s already made first impressions. And none of them were good!
You ever just been chilling in front of the news and found out your beloved babysitter/cool older friend, his idiot dad, and his little brother are your personal vigilante idols? Neither has Tim, but turns out there really is a first time for everything. Now he just has to figure out two things: how it's even possible for Bruce Wayne to be Batman, and how he'll survive dinner at Wayne Manor when he knows his hosts are Gotham's heroes.
Part of 73 Votes AU, stories set in a kinder, gentler timeline than DC gave us where Jason Todd was saved just in time and Tim Drake entered his found family a few years early (see notes below).

curiousity killed the cat (but satisfaction brought him back) by renirae
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
08 Jul 2024
Summary
When Jason is temporarily turned into a cat, he decides to embrace the positives of the situation. Mainly the fact that as Red Hood he still had a few months of groundwork to lay until he can start torturing his replacement Robin, but as a cat he can do it now and nobody will suspect a thing.
Unfortunately, he did not account for Tim being insane enough to forcibly adopt the cat that had been trying to maim him, and his plans kind of go downhill from there.

Let Them Be Brothers Anthology by quotidian_void
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Robin (Comics), Batman (Comics), Red Robin (Comics)
10 Nov 2023
Summary
Tim meets Jason while at school. He saved him from bullies, thinking that was it, but it turns out that it was not. Jason wanted to be near him. He chose to be his friend. Soon, the title of "friendship" somehow changed to "brotherhood" along the way, and it seemed like it was there to stay.
Anthology containing:
My School’s Local Mafia Boss
I think the title really explains it all? But anyway:
Jason knew that attending a rich ass school was going to be the toughest and most mind-grating thing ever. His beliefs were confirmed when he got cornered by bullies on his first day. The only thing he was surprised about was that it took them so long to find the school's new street rat. Just as he's about to be punched a fucking 10 year old (he's actually 12) steps in and... starts threatening the bullies? And they actually listen?? What the fuck???
And that isn't the only surprise that's waiting for him.

No, scratch that—Tim is great at galas. He’s been attending them ever since the age of three, when his parents first stuffed him into his little Gymboree tuxedo and gave him a stern lecture about ‘sitting quietly’ and ‘speaking when spoken to.’ He knows all the rules: what to wear, how to stand, when to smile, what to say, what not to say.

Summary
Anthology containing:
Thicker Than Water
When Jason Todd was five years old, his mother, Catherine Todd had a little baby boy. Unfortuntely, tragedy struck and Jason's baby brother was stolen from the hospital shortly after he was born.
This is a story of everything that came after...
How families were broken apart and eventually pieced back together to create something new.
How long lost brothers find each other after so many trials and tribulations.
Cradle Robber
Imagine how different the DCU would be if Damian al Ghul did not join the Wayne family until after the events of the Final Crisis. What if 10-year old Damian was still being raised/trained in the Cradle by the League of Assassins when Tim Drake was in the midst of his quest to find Bruce Wayne lost in time? What if Tim was the first of the Batfamily to meet Damian after he lost his spleen and was dragged into the conflict with the Council of Spiders by Ra's al Ghul?
