Summary
"Hey B. I haven't seen the Replacement in a while. Where's he been?"
"Red Robin? Why?"
"I, I need to apologize. I never apologized for Titans Tower, or… everything else. I need to do it in person, but I realized I didn't know his civilian identity somehow. Do you know where he is?"
"..."
"What?"
"... I'll let you know when he comes into contact with us."
"What is it B?"
"..."
"What are you not saying?"
"I made mistakes… I made a lot of mistakes with him."
“What does that mean?!”
“I… Red wore disguises from the beginning, but I never cared about learning who he was until he had already learned to hide completely from me. As hard as I tried, I never did find out who he was behind the mask. He didn’t… I. I didn’t try, hard enough.”
"So you don't know who he is or where to find him?"
"No."
"... well darn B, it looks like we both have some apologizing to do."Series

Summary
There is occasionally a certain point one reaches during the attempt to attain a goal where one decides that the goal is just not worth it.
Unfortunately, this also often coincides with being at a point in the attainment of that goal where it’s too damn late and you’re just gonna have to suck it up, buttercup, and get your shit together and do it anyway.
Tim is pretty sure this shit is absolutely not worth it, but it’s too late now and even if it wasn’t, Mama ain’t raise no fuckin’ quitter.
Or:
Tim’s quest to bring Bruce back from his Time-Travel-Super-Vacation goes horribly topsy-turvey when Ra's takes a more pro-active approach to keeping Tim prisoner, and he ends up in an alternate universe where he never existed, and everybody is disorientingly well-adjusted and weirdly obsessed with his “wellness”, whatever that means.
Tim hates mystical artifacts.
(Alternate universe Better Batfam trope)

Another dimensional travel with better Batfam (closer to WFA Batfam). Tim-Centric ofc. (I think I have a obsession with Bi men named Timothy...)

Summary
“And everyone is so old,” Tubbo complains. Somehow, without them knowing about it, Tubbo’s managed to swipe a waffle and is chewing on it happily. Sapnap stifles a laugh. “Well, not everyone, I guess- the kid in our room is our age, I think. He might be younger.”
Wilbur perks up. “Does he ice skate?”
“Yeah, he does. He’s got these sick skates and everything.” Tubbo explains. “He’s quiet though. We tried talking to him, but…”
“But?”
Tubbo shrugs. "He's quiet. He doesn't talk much. I guess he's busy."
or, Tommy's made it to the Olympics for figure skating- he's the youngest contestant on the ice and he's the favor for the gold. He's supposed to be living the dream. So why is he still so unhappy? And why do all these hockey players and snowboarders care so much about him?

Summary
“Here‘s the thing: we don‘t want Bilbo to leave, Thorin doesn‘t want Bilbo to leave, Mahal, not even Bilbo wants Bilbo to leave! All we need to do is make the two see that for themselves.“
Or: The company is devastated to hear that Bilbo plans to leave Erebor in spring. With him and Thorin not talking, there‘s no real hope of ever getting him to stay at the Lonely Mountain. Unless, of course, they take matters into their own hands…
