Summary
Tim is a wizard. He also has a lower tolerance for weird megalomaniacs and meddling adults than his friend Harry Potter. This... changes a few things.
AKA Tim goes to Hogwarts AU
Anthology containing:
Scientific Method
It’s not like he’s surprised a magic school exists— that’s probably only a seven on the scale of “crazy things Tim Drake has seen”. No, Tim’s just surprised he’s enrolled.
Theories of Time and Space
Enemies are gathering outside Hogwarts— and inside. Tim’s just trying to run his smuggling ring without getting busted by his Head of House. Is that a werewolf?

Summary
Tim Drake likes to think he's your typical 12 year old. Well, except for the sneaking around at night and doing detective work. And figuring out the Bats' identity. But that's it. Really.
Except everything seems to be spiraling out of his control. Something serious is going on in Gotham, and Tim might be the only one who can put all the pieces together in time to stop it.
Or: Tim is a crazy little detective who just wants to help in any way he can. Of course the Bats are going to adopt him.

Summary
Tim Drake feels stuck. He doesn’t want to continue on, but he knows that he has a duty to uphold. He wants things to go back to the way it was, reminiscing about when he was going to galas with his biological parents, all the while being forced to play chauffeur for his little brother.
Or
“Tim was very smart, but never in a way that benefited him.”

The Birds Anthology by Oceanera12
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Superman - All Media Types
24 Dec 2022
Summary
Batfamily AU
Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Timothy Drake, and Damian met one another before Bruce Wayne ever entered the picture. Foster care in Gotham isn't exactly safe, but the four of them know what they need to do to survive. First, don't draw attention to yourself. Two, don't bother foster parent because he doesn't care about you. And finally, the four of them are family, which means they stick together. These rules served them well for about four years and they expected nothing to change.
And then they ran into Batman.
Anthology containing:
The Birds: Hatching Family
"Fate must have a strange sense of humor putting the four of them under the same roof. Then again, it's Gotham. The city isn't exactly known for its sense of humor."
AU where Dick is 12, Jason is 11, Tim is 10, and Damian is 8(?) and instead of being taken in by Bruce, the four of them end up together in a foster home run by a very neglectful parent. But they have each other so life isn't so bad. As long as they keep their heads down, get enough food, and not get caught in their various "activities", the four should be fine.
So maybe they should learn to stop running into the Dark Knight of Gotham.
The Birds: Finding a Nest
So.
Bruce had saved the Birds (Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian) from Joker. Which was good. But because of Joker, they were going to be separated. Which was bad. So he decided to take them in (temporarily, of course) until a proper home could be found for all of them, together. Which was good. But now Bruce has to take care of four children, of which he really has no experience with. At all. Which is... not bad, but not good either.
Oh, and Bruce has to make sure that the three kids who don't know he is Batman stay unaware of that little fact.
No pressure.
The Birds: Supersons
Clark loved Metropolis, his job, and his family. Not necessarily in that order. And while he was Superman, he did his best to keep his family as much in his regular day-to-day life.
Too bad someone else decided that Superman's six-year-old sons needed a less-than-normal day.
Too bad for them that Clark is friends with the World's Greatest Detective.
(Prequel to The Birds: Hatching Family, but it is not necessary to read together. Can be read separately, or not at all.)

Like A Good Neighbor by kindaquirky
Fandoms: Batgirl (Comics), Batman - All Media Types, Red Hood and the Outlaws (Comics), Red Robin (Comics)
31 Dec 2019
Summary
Tim Drake leads a...mostly normal life, helping people get the best insurance they can afford. Soon though, he finds himself embroiled in a plot that involves Robin trying to take him down, and Batgirl possibly helping. Add to the mix Red Hood using him for information, and a strange young man walking into his office under false pretenses, Tim finds that his mostly normal life is about to completely change.
Tim knew there were worse jobs in Gotham than insurance agent, but he’s hard pressed to think of another at the moment. As he shoots off an email to a client about looking into their claim asap, he hears the glass door to the small insurance office open and watches Stephanie Brown,the goddamn Batgirl, walk into the agency and catch his eye. He puts 'masked vigilante' at the top of the list.
