    Summary

    “Why don’t you come home anymore, Tim?” Jason asks, softer than he’s ever said anything in his life. The words slip out before he can stop them.
    Tim freezes. His back stiffens, his shoulders lock. He doesn’t turn around when he answers, and Jason can see the way it hurts him just to get the words out.
    “The manor is not my home, Jay. It never was.”
    “Tim—”
    “If it was, it wouldn’t have been that easy to drive me away.” His voice cracks on the last word, the whisper shredding into silence.
    Or
    Tim says it like it is

    Summary

    “He told me he was visiting friends! But apparently he left out the part about taking a spaceship to see them!”

    Jack’s pacing was beginning to wear holes into the carpet.

    “How did he even get his hands on a spaceship? His allowance is only ten dollars a week and he spends most of it on chips and candy!”

    Suddenly, Wayne frowned slightly, the corners of his lips turning down as his brow furrowed.

    “Tim said you stopped giving him an allowance because he was failing Calculus.”

    Jack turned to him, bewildered.

    “Tim’s failing Calculus?”

    ---

    In which Jack Drake does not die in a home invasion and is now, inexplicably, co-parenting his only child with another man. Something Jack would protest if he didn't desperately need him because raising his son was a two-person job.

    Summary

    “Right. I… I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately. About everything. And…” Jason breathes out, like the words are physically painful for him to say, “I feel really guilty about, um, how I’ve treated you–”

    “You mean about how you slit my throat? Or the way you act towards me in general?” Tim clarifies, tilting his head a little.

    “All of it. I, I wanted to ask if you could maybe forgive me for it. I feel really bad about it, Tim.”

    Tim can’t help it. He laughs, loud and cruel. “You feel bad about it, huh?”

    Jason looks at him warily and nods, slow and careful.

    “You feel bad. Wow. How the fuck do you think I feel about it, Jason?”

     

    Or: basically Tim crashing out at the batfam, with varying results.

    Summary

    It sucked that Tim couldn't trust his family. They had either been his abusers or bystanders, but even when he tried to take himself off their hands, they clung to him like a sticky residue. Trapped, he felt like a mouse beneath a cat's paw, and he knew the only escape would be a clean-cut break with no room for interpretion.

    Somehow, they made room for interpretation.

    “Bruce,” Tim rasped, his discarded Red Robin suit a thousand pound weight in his hands, clean and ready to go in its case. “You don’t even *like* me.”
    The truth dangled between them like a spider’s web clinging to separate walls.

    To no one’s shock, Batman said nothing. The only sounds in the cave were the shuffling of bats and Tim’s bike rumbling softly at the entrance, waiting patiently for him to make his escape.
