jason todd and the bats
misadventures involving Jason Todd coming home, being a brother, being bloodthirsty, being at peace reading his books with a cup of coffee near a warm fireplace like he should. Tim Drake gets his fill of adoration and acknowledgement, because he deserves more love. Dick Grayson having his moments, because he's more than just the boy wonder. Damian's entire menagerie of animals are the most vicious (cutest) thing ever and his habit of collecting strays like Bruce.

Summary
____
Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.
Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

Summary
“The Red Hood has been good for Gotham,” Robin continued. “Crime in Park Row decreased by sixty one percent almost as soon as you showed up, and that’s even taking into account all the crime you commit. Drug overdoses have decreased by twenty two percent in adults and seventy nine percent in minors. Homeless minors are ninety two percent less likely to—”
“Kid,” Jason interrupted. “Enough statistics. What the hell is this about?”
Robin slowly lowered the tablet with his powerpoint presentation and looked up at Red Hood.
“You care about Gotham,” Robin summarised. “Gotham needs Batman. Batman is missing and so is Nightwing. We need you to fill in for Batman.”
“You want me to cover Batman’s patrols?” Jason clarified.
“No,” Robin said. “I want you to be Batman.”
Jason bluescreened.
(Or: Batman and Nightwing mysteriously disappear before Red Hood has even started antagonising them, Robin is desperate, Gotham needs Batman, and Red Hood is Batman-Shaped.)

Summary
The news that Timothy Drake, Gotham’s cryptid millionaire, has shot the Joker dead during a public live-stream hits the world like a freight train—and that is just the opening salvo of his bugfuck plan.
Maybe there exists, in the multiverse, a configuration of Jason Todd who will weather this with decorum, dignity and self-respect. This version of Jason Todd decides that the life of an academic is not, really, all that rewarding. In contrast, the life of Timothy Drake’s live-in house-husband is looking more appealing by the second.

Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

Summary
Instead of his entirely complicated plan for revenge, Jason decidedly took on a vastly different approach…via delivering every single black haired blue eyed orphan he could find into Bruce's doorstep knowing the man wouldn’t be able to resist taking in a poor parentless child.

Summary
Being reborn into an impossibly wealthy family is supposed to be the jackpot of afterlives, she should have been able to just take full advantage of her privilege and live her life retired early on a beach somewhere.

She'll be damned if she doesn't do everything in her power to protect her newfound family but how does one keep things hidden from the world's greatest detective?
Or a DC comics fan is reincarnated as the sister of the infamous Bruce Wayne, desperate to change things for the better she of course, meddles, but how does one change fate when they can't fully remember what it is they're trying to change, how does one change fate when their biggest clue is the dreams that haunt them at night?

Summary
Jason’s almost to the door when he hears his name gasped out with a sob. The anguish laced into the voice makes him freeze, makes his heart stutter to a near stop, and he slowly turns towards the kid.
"Please, don't leave me."
OR: Jason discovers that the new Robin - Tim Drake - is the same kid who used to follow him and Batman around with a camera. Which is kind of a bummer, because now Jason can't kill him. Instead, he has to make sure the kid doesn't get himself killed. -

Summary
“You saw the body?” Jason asks. It’s a stupid question—of course Tim saw it. Tim was the one who found it, who rolled it into the carpet in the first place. But there’s a second question wrapped up in his strangled tone, which is: Are you okay after seeing the body?
Tim just purses his lips, almost indignant. “This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a corpse before, Jason.”
Right, Jason thinks, but it’s the first time the corpse has been your own fucking dad.

Tim is desperate to keep his father’s death a secret from Bruce at all costs. Which is how he ends up hiding a body with Jason Todd, of all people.
