Summary
Tim is an art forger. There’s no other word for it. He fakes antiquities and sells them. It’s illegal, it’s immoral, and it’s a total secret.
Tim has managed to avoid detection by his parents, their clients, the GCPD, Batman, INTERPOL, and, notably, Catwoman.
This all comes apart one soggy week in April, when Gotham mafia boss Callum O'Gowan gets an artifact he purchased from the Drakes appraised. Enraged by the fraud, O'Gowan kidnaps Tim on his way home from school to get back at Jack and Janet, who are totally certain that they’ve sold a genuine, authentic necklace and don’t really understand why this unpleasant large man is yelling so much.
In the aftermath, Tim struggles to keep his parents from discovering his lies, his neighbors from discovering his kidnapping, and his neighbors' alter egos from discovering his crimes.
~~~
Meanwhile, Jason Todd has just met the funniest freshman at Gotham Academy who is also clearly the most-up-to-something freshman at Gotham Academy. Also, all of his bullies are avoiding him suddenly.
Things get weirder.

Summary
The bleachers were packed with families: parents and grandparents and siblings, all dressed up, all holding cameras and flowers and balloons. Steve could see them from where he sat, could see the way they waved at their graduates, calling out names and taking pictures. The gym was full of people celebrating, full of love and pride and joy.
None of it was for him.
He knew the kids wouldn’t—couldn’t—be here, even if they wanted to be. They were still in school, and would be for another week, and teachers wouldn’t have let them leave for the ceremony, since none of them were actually related to Steve.
His parents weren't here either. Steve had known they wouldn't be—had known it with the kind of bone-deep certainty that came from a lifetime of disappointments—but there was still a small, stupid part of him that had hoped. That had thought maybe, just maybe, they'd show up for this. His high school graduation: that was the thing parents were supposed to care about, right?
They probably didn't even remember it was today.
Probably didn’t even know he was graduating at all.

Summary
Turtle liked the emptiness and vastness of the ocean. Out there, even though he was alone, he could be himself. Those delicate pieces of himself—the fears that rattled his bones and wept like waterfalls—became nothing more than circumstantial quirks. His character came from the background and miraculously stumbled into the main role. Turtle, against all odds, felt free. As of he could be more than what he was, without having to become something bigger than who he was.
(or: turtle didn’t recognize dragons the way he should, let alone himself.)
