    Summary

    “I’m Sorry?”

    If Tim's… friend (would Tim get shot if he were to call Jason his brother?) is feeling particularly gregarious, they might chat about light subjects—the latest trafficking ring Jason's brought down, the newest security measures government agencies have implemented to try and keep Tim out, whatever shenanigans their assorted siblings and sibling-adjacent friends are getting into. But they've always avoided any conversation topics that might be considered heavier. Namely: feelings.

    It's been a perfectly normal Tuesday morning so far. They haven't exchanged any words today, other than a dry greeting when Tim sat down half-an-hour ago. There's no way they're about to have this conversation right here, right now.

    "Do you ever think about being a woman?"

     

    Or

    Jason comes to terms with the idea that he might be a woman, and realizes how loved she is in the process

    Summary

    Damian al Ghul was four years old when the League taught him that obedience meant survival.

     

    They strapped him to a chair, flooded his nervous system with sonic conditioning, and rewired his mind until pain became instinct and fear became permanent.

     

    By the time Batman finds him, Damian is no longer just traumatized — he is conditioned. Broken apart by sound, by compliance, by years of engineered terror.

     

    Recovery is slow. Painful. Nonlinear.

     

    The Batfamily learns how to care for a child who flinches at every noise, who believes punishment follows mistakes, who doesn't understand kindness because he's never been allowed to have it before.

     

    And just when Damian finally starts believing he's safe—

     

    The League activates the conditioning again.

    Summary

    An incident in Gotham leaves Jason Todd in a strange new place. On his own in a world where everyone has powers, Jason faces two options: Continue his vigilantism & be hunted down OR enroll to school to become a hero.

    One thing’s for certain: Different Earth, same old sleep-deprived, dark-themed mentor who has an interest in cats.

    Spoilers in the first chapter from the Red Hood and the Outlaws 2016 series, I just used the event from Issue 25 with some add-ons & changes to fit this story so if you’re not caught up on the series or interested in it then, well...spoiler alert ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Summary

    Title from literally the last minute of Hot Fuzz (2007)

    Tim Drake, kid genius, nepo baby extraordinaire, and most notably, Robin, is going to school. Jokes on Batman though, he was sending Tim to U.A. which just so happened to be the coolest school out there, so he wasn't too mad. Besides, he's Robin, he's already a hero in his own right, this will be a piece of cake.


    this incredibly self indulgent, thank you for coming to my ted talk.. also, this is not a me rewriting and changing all of mha, most of the major events are mosty the same, i've just shoved Tim in cause i can
