Summary
Tim overthinks a lot. He does it unconsciously thanks to anxiety he shoved down and ignores.
But what if he forced himself to overthink something just to find a reason to not let himself go completely? And what if that doesn’t work when he’s accidentally given himself a way to test the question of ‘would anyone notice’ that he’s been pretending to be so sure of because they have to notice or there’s no reason to even bother keeping himself afloat.- Language:

Summary
It would seem he's right because as he ducks behind a dumpster the man, who he now sees is the colorful spider, stops at the edge of the building before turning around and shrugging.
He lets out a sigh of relief as the man turns around at the jogging pace, back towards the building he came from.
“Now, where the hell am I?”

Summary
Being thrown back in time turned out to be less of a disaster than Tim would have thought. He had managed to stay more or less out of trouble, keep his nose clean, and even help a few people along the way! (Hopefully)
Unfortunately, things didn’t stay clean for very long, not when Tim was involved. The powers that be (and the powers that would one day be) were beginning to take notice, and Tim’s idyllic home life wasn’t going to last much longer, not unless he did something about it.
And do something about it he did.

Summary
He’s very aware that, were He a living, breathing human being, He would just be a parasocial stalker. He likes to almost consider Himself part of this family on good days. If He were to come out of hiding only to find that everyone wanted Him gone (which was extremely likely, considering they didn’t know Him), then well…
He doesn’t know what He’d do with Himself. Their lack of means to perceiving Him means that He can never be shooed away, and can never be imposing on anyone.
Unfortunately, it might be a bit too late for that. Damian knows He’s here. Damian likely won’t rest until the mystery is solved, too. There’s no answer to be found though. No one can ever find Him, not even if they tried their damndest. He is no one.
———
Or,
Timothy Jackson Drake is a ghost. That’s unimportant, though, because he lives in the city of the world’s coolest family ever. Surely the bats won’t notice some friendly cohabitation, right?

Summary
Tim carved himself a place with the Wayne's. He bled for a chance to don a domino mask. He endured condescension, attempts on his life that were met with no reprimand, he even endured Robin - the one thing he had left - being taken and given to Damian. He went on a trip around the goddamn world just to find Bruce after he was lost in the timestream. He cried, fought, bled, underwent medical malpractice, and still found his adopted father. All to be met with no apologies for his eldest brother's threats of Arkahm, and a request for his emancipation so Bruce wouldn't have to run Wayne Enterprises.
Tim Drake-Wayne dropped the hypenation.
He was never a Wayne, and he finally realized it.

you know what? tim's not at all affected by being rejected by his bio-dad bruce wayne, you know why? because he's young, rich, hot, totally well-adjusted, popular, not at all a mess and honestly? that's all that matters!he's not petty enough to let his daddy issues descend into cold calculated revenge because he doesn't need bruce or batman or whatever he's calling himself these days. he doesn't need him. really. because he's perfect just the way he is. he doesn't want his attention or love either. duh.
and if, let's say, he ever tried to enact said revenge plan (as a joke, obviously. he would NEVER--) he's not worried (because that would be crazy) because his mom would never let him get thrown into arkham! which, at the end of the day; that's all that matters over standard parental affection. promise.

Summary

As Dick, Tim and Barbara work to stop a trafficking ring that has established itself in Gotham. The discoveries they make threaten to destroy everything they have worked so hard to protect.
--
As he turns the corner he begins to hear the sounds of screaming over the roar of the flames. He doesn’t see anyone at first, but then an arm sticks out through a basement window.
“Help! Please someone help us!” A voice cries out.
Tim rushes forwards, and finds a basement window metal bars installed over, blocking the escape of those trapped inside. The arm touches the metal and a shout of pain follows.
“Batman I’ve got victims trapped in a basement!” Tim reports, as he gets closer to the building. “There appears to be-”
His words cut off into a gasp as he looks into the window, at least a dozen women and children are in the basement.

Summary
An uncontacted demigod is moving into monster infested Gotham. Can Tim get them to Camp without running into Red Hood?
"Tim braced the shaft of his spear between the hinges of its jaw, barely preventing it from biting off his head. Tim’s body became alight with pain as the hellhound’s claws began to dig into his shoulder. He was only half aware of the sound of gunshots, preoccupied with the hellhound on top of him. Suddenly, the weight disappeared and Tim was spitting out dust.
Tim sat up, dumbfounded by the sight that greeted him: Jason Todd in a red hoodie holding a pair of flaming swords with the most baffled look on his face."
Reading the entire series is not required, but I heavily recommend reading Family Reunion for context.

Summary
Seven-year-old Tim Drake appears to be the ideal child: intelligent, well-behaved and unfailingly polite.
Across the lawn, the Wayne household lives a very different life. Bruce Wayne and his spirited brood, including Dick, Cass, Jason, Duke and Damian, fill their residence with noise, chaos and unconditional affection, anchored by Alfred’s steady presence.
Tim has spent his entire reality mastering one skill: survival through being flawless. An immaculate boy doesn’t cry. A faultless son doesn’t complain. An impeccable child never gives his parents a reason to hurt him.
He doesn’t expect anyone to notice how small he has become inside his own world.
The Waynes do.
This is the slow unraveling of a secret, the gentle, desperate struggle to protect and save the kid hiding behind polished etiquette.
It’s about the Wayne family who refuse to look away and the boy who discovers that being loved doesn’t require being without blemish.
He just has to step next door.
This is the story of the child who learns that safety, warmth and care were always within reach.
Belonging was waiting for him, just right next door.

Four Months for Them, Ten Years for Him by KinkyDrake69

Summary
Four months after Red Robin vanished saving Batman from the Time Stream, the Batfamily mourns in a quiet limbo of grief and denial. Bruce Wayne refuses to accept Tim Drake’s death without a body—facts over faith—yet the Batcave feels hollow without the son who once anchored him.
When a mysterious portal rips open in the cave, they brace for an enemy. Instead, a scarred, older man collapses through.
It’s Tim.
Just not the one they lost.
This Tim is 27, forged by ten years in another world. No longer Robin, he’s a Dark/Psychic Gym Leader in Unova, protector of Castelia City, a survivor of civil war, and a married man with a life—and a team of Pokémon—he would die for. DNA and protocols confirm the impossible: only four months passed in Gotham; a decade passed for him.
Shock turns to conflict. Bruce, unable to lose his son again, tries to keep Tim in Gotham. But Tim refuses to abandon the world that became his home, the city that depends on him, and the husband waiting across universes.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Summary
“C’mon you don’t have to do the tough guy act with me,” Dick said, hiding what was probably broken ribs by the way he wheezed after Tim landed on him, “It’s only been a few days since you were shot.”
Tim sighed. He knew Dick was too busy to read the full debriefs for files he wasn’t actively working on, but for him to mess up such a simple bit of information was laughable. Instead of correcting his brother, or being pedantic about Dick’s word choice with “a few”, Tim took the high road and simply rolled his eyes and began to make his way up the stairs on his own again.
After all, Tim hadn’t been shot.
-----
Tim slowly loses his memory. And who is Tim Drake without his mind?
