Summary
Dick is having a midlife crisis at the ripe old age of 17. Why did Batman have to fire him from being Robin? Life had been going so well. And now he is living at Titan's Tower, with no money, and no idea what he is supposed to do with his life now. Oh, great, here comes his nemesis to make matters even worse!
Or
Deathstroke the Terminator doesn't have time to take care of stubborn, sleep deprived, sassy teenage vigilantes, but yet here he is, with a houseful of them.
Whenever Batman fires, or loses one of his Robins, Slade is there to snatch them up and add them to his ever growing collection of Pre-Owned Birds and Bats.
AKA: Slade Wilson's adoption arc!
All the Batkids find a way into Slade's life (and home) whether he wants them there or not! -

Summary
Jack Drake used Drake Industries to hide his white-collar crimes. Janet Drake used her socialite status to hide her participation in a group of assassins.
Really, they should have expected Tim Drake to reject the idea of being a normal child.
AKA
The Drakes, while criminals, do try really hard to be good parents and raise a normal child. Tim, who tries to be a normal kid, also really wants to be just like his parents.

Summary
Tim wakes up inexplicably in his two-year-old body. Which: odd. But just think, how many people would kill to have an opportunity to redo their life! And Tim has so much he wants to change, so much he wants. He wants to feel important to Bruce. He wants to be Dick's favorite. He wants Jason (his childhood hero) to think he's cool. He wants Damian to need him. And really, is it manipulation if his family benefits from it?
Or: He was halfway through the second trash can, when a startled “Good lord” caught him off guard. Tim glanced up, the rhythmic sucking of his pacifier coming to a still at the sight of a black Rolls Royce idling at the side road that lead to Wayne Manor. Alfred was staring at him from the over the car top, aghast. “Master Bruce, it’s not a raccoon.”
From the back seat, Bruce Wayne stared at him. Tim stared back.
Or: Tim is side tracked by his actual childish needs and wants, gets a whole bunch of his nannies fired, terrorizes his parents with a series of petty revenges, is an honest employer of one (1) newly minted murderer for hire, endears himself to – and thoroughly weirds out – the Waynes, and is generally just a petty, manipulative, vindictive, smol boy.

you know what? tim's not at all affected by being rejected by his bio-dad bruce wayne, you know why? because he's young, rich, hot, totally well-adjusted, popular, not at all a mess and honestly? that's all that matters!he's not petty enough to let his daddy issues descend into cold calculated revenge because he doesn't need bruce or batman or whatever he's calling himself these days. he doesn't need him. really. because he's perfect just the way he is. he doesn't want his attention or love either. duh.
and if, let's say, he ever tried to enact said revenge plan (as a joke, obviously. he would NEVER--) he's not worried (because that would be crazy) because his mom would never let him get thrown into arkham! which, at the end of the day; that's all that matters over standard parental affection. promise.

Chapter 8 this is actually really well written and I’m loving the story so far. Tim has good friends and despite not being a bat he’s still insanely smart x good in business. He also knows who’s under the masks ahhh

Summary
“I have time.”
Tim does not, in fact, have time.
But it’s Nightwing who is calling. What’s he going to do—say no? Preposterous. That's a crime in and of itself. Tim would rather swallow nails and kiss his mother goodnight than say no to Dick Grayson. “How can I help you, Nightwing?”
---
or, when tim is three people at the same time, jebaits the bats into joining their family twice, and might be accidentally running the city as an emergency hotline operator. not necessarily in that order.
