Summary
For a long time, Tim doesn’t know his parents are dead. Maybe that makes him a bad son, for not knowing. When he reads about death, or when he watches people die in movies, their loved ones always know. There’s a gasp of pained revelation, an instinctual loss.
Tim doesn’t feel that. He wouldn’t have noticed at all, except for that he likes to keep track of the things going on in the places where his parents visit. Sometimes, it means he can ask leading questions, on their mostly-weekly phone calls, and Janet will spiral off into some tangent about these people and their lack of work ethic, and she’ll talk for minutes on end before realizing she’s still on the phone, getting bored, and then ending the call. So he keeps an alert system on his phone, for news, so they have some topics in common to talk about. It’s only luck he sees the article before anyone else does.

Summary
“But, if you’re my biological father, then why-” Tim stopped walking and looked up at him with such a desolate expression that Bruce’s breath caught in his chest.
Bruce swallowed, hard, past the lump in his throat. “Tim, sweetheart, I-”
Tim cut him off with the side of his clenched fist pounding on Bruce’s chest. Not angry, or combative, but the sad and desperate hit of a child in turmoil.
“Why.” Tim started again, throwing another weak hit with his fist, tears beginning to well up in his eyes and breaking Bruce’s heart with every second. “Why, if you’re my biological father, am I. So. Short!”

Summary
Tim was never meant to be Robin. He knew that- he was just a stand-in, someone to be used until Batman was better or another Robin came along- he wasn't family. So, he hid his identity from everyone. No one knew who the third Robin was, not even Batman. Why is it, then, that the Waynes so interested in Timothy Drake? And why now, of all times?
OR: The Batfamily have been trying to lure Agent C back into the family ever since he ran away. It's a slow-going process. In the meantime, Damian has latched onto Timothy Drake, and is teaming up with Dick to try and adopt him. Whether he wants to be adopted or not.

Summary
Everything he had thought he knew for the first ten years of his life was a lie.
He had begun to suspect as much by his eighth year, but that made him no more prepared to go from the cool dampness of the caves to tripping across continents on unsteady wings, the information skimmed from Grandfather's files at the forefront of his mind in a last minute attempt to prepare for his first meeting with his father.
