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
He had been on monitor duty.
One of the last things he remembered before his surroundings changed from one blink to another, was staring at one of the many monitors in front of his face while keeping up with Timothy’s confrontation with an alien magician, and murmuring in the microphone for his brother to hear how, if Damian was the one in his brother’s place, the enemy would have surrendered already. He, too, had the vague memory of Timothy saying something along the lines of wishing him to be quiet, and then he blinked in another dimension, with the batcomputer shut off just like everything else.
-
In which Damian is mistakenly sent to another dimension, landing in an alternate universe where survival relays solely on complete and utter silence.
Trope totally inspired by 'I Waited' by BrickSheep and 'Within These Hallowed Halls (Your Ghost Still Haunts Me)' by Hanahaki_Disease.

Summary
He didn’t even remember falling asleep. What had he been doing? Tim furiously scrubbed a hand over his eyes, willing the fog clinging to his senses to dissipate.
“I’m sorry, Dad, I was just–” Tim turned, and promptly cut himself off. Oh, he thought, not Dad.
—
Five times Tim woke up and thought of his parents, and one time he fell asleep knowing he was home.
