Summary
Batman doesn’t know who the Joker is, where he came from, or what his goals are, beyond inflicting suffering. That means, when racing to save his Robin, his Jason, his son, from what appears to be the Joker’s trap, Bruce doesn’t know entirely what to expect. …Another man’s son, on the other hand, may or may not know exactly what to expect. The Joker teasingly calls himself Jack Napier, but his real name isn’t too far off: Jack Drake. And his son knows it all too well.
OR
Timothy Drake is Joker Junior, always has been, has never been able to say anything about it. Jason Todd is Robin, and he has a lot to say about Joker Junior. -

Summary
It's not *Tim's* fault Batman slept with his mom sixteen years ago, or Tim's fault that Bruce Wayne regrets signing away his parental rights fifteen years ago, but Jack Drake sure thinks it is. Now Damian is bugging him about cows and family and Jason and Dick won't stop kidnapping him and Bruce is acting like court orders don't matter, like he doesn't have a huge bat-shaped secret to protect from literally the whole freaking world.
Why is Tim the only functioning adult in this situation?
This was supposed to be coated in angst, but it fell in the fluff bucket instead. (So, update, some people are saying this may not be as fluffy as I am advertising it. I plead the 5th.)

Summary
Tim was patrolling a little too close to Crime Alley for his liking, but he would be careful.
Hood still hated and despised him, and the Bat clan wouldn't help him for anything. Tim wasn't one of them, had never been one of them, but that was ok. He accepted that.
Tim just had to be more aware of his surroundings tonight and make sure he got home in one piece. Easier said than done in Gotham, but he was Red Robin, and he could finish tonight's patrol without issue. And really, the chances of him running into Hood on a Friday night were slim to none...

Summary
When Tim Drake was 17, he faked his own death.
Three years later, a new guy has entered Gotham, with hacking skills that outmatch Oracle’s, a blade sharp enough to cut through bone, and a penchant for disappearing better than the Batman himself.
And he’s making a mark on the villain population of Gotham.
He leaves no evidence behind, nothing to mark himself by, only the remnants of his kill and a name: Cardinal -
