Summary
“I’m adopted.”
The room drops into complete silence.
Bruce stares at him, confused.
The rest of the family stares at him, confused.
Bruce clears his throat. “Well, yes, um—Tim, that’s… well, you know, that would be because I adopted you,” he says hesitantly.
Tim almost breaks. The anxiety keeps him from laughing, but he does manage a small smile. “Yes, that’s right, Bruce—but that’s not what I meant. While I was cleaning up, I found some documents in my parents’ study. A birth certificate, to be exact, and… well, it didn’t say Jack and Janet Drake on it like I was expecting.”
Understanding dawns on their faces.
“You were adopted by Jack and Janet?” Bruce asks.Or
Tim finds his biological parents.

Ghosty Tim Drake by TimDrakeIsMyPatronus
Fandom Batman (Comics), Batman - All Media Types
30 Oct 2025
Summary
In which after being killed in the presence of a cursed artifact, Tim becomes immune to non-violent death. And also lowkey becomes Danny Phantom.
Summary of lore in case you’re new:
Tim has become a figment of Thanatos, the god of natural death. Therefore, he cannot die of unnatural causes, such as violent deaths or poison. This included the Clench because it wasn’t a natural virus. Basically, he can’t die before it’s his natural time.
Any active injuries he has when he dies are healed without scars. If he gets injured and survives, such as getting his spleen skewered, then those scars remain.
His connection to the astral plane also gives him the ability to become invisible and intangible as well as interacting with ghosts. He can lend his power to other ghosts, but it leaves him weak.
Hope that all makes sense!

Summary
Tim knows how the saying goes. "Don't meet your heroes". He knows it, he's lived it. Neither Batman nor Nightwing were nearly as cool in person as twelve year old Tim had imagined. They were disasters barely held together- mostly by Alfred. It's a lesson all children have to learn, that all your heroes are just people. Flawed people who are going to let you down.
At least Jason Todd will never be able to disappoint him.

Summary
He didn’t even remember falling asleep. What had he been doing? Tim furiously scrubbed a hand over his eyes, willing the fog clinging to his senses to dissipate.
“I’m sorry, Dad, I was just–” Tim turned, and promptly cut himself off. Oh, he thought, not Dad.
—
Five times Tim woke up and thought of his parents, and one time he fell asleep knowing he was home.

Summary
There was little that Dick Grayson was expecting when he opened the door to desperate knocking at three in the afternoon.
A lost child? A neighbor in need of a cup of sugar?
Definitely not a child holding a baby claiming that it was Dick's baby brother.
Definitely not a kid who said he was being chased by ninjas, and that only Dick could help him.Or
What does Tim Drake do when he learns that his baby brother isn't really his baby brother, but the son of none other than Bruce Wayne? How does he react when ninjas appear to kidnap his baby brother, who he swore to always protect?

Summary
It’s the first time anyone in the family has seen Drake in months, as far as Damian knows. He’s not sure what he was expecting when Drake showed his face again, but it wasn’t this: toothbrush hanging out of his mouth, wearing a too-large hoodie, rooting through the fridge at two in the morning in the Kents’ farmhouse. He looks like a mess. He looks more relaxed than Damian’s ever seen him.
(Tim drops off the face of the earth, leaving a Drake-sized hole in the family. Damian’s the last person anyone would have expected to fix it.)

Summary
"It was a game," Tim smiled bemused to himself, "I think subconsciously I knew it wasn't a game… but you know when you're a kid and you still want to see the best in everyone. Cause of course all parents love their children just like the sky is blue and grass is green. That's what the movies and the books and the teachers and kids at school always said. So I wanted to play a game."
"I never really played hide and seek, but I heard some other kids talking about it- and well you know it sounded fun and like something you would do with family and it wasn't physically extenuating like tag or something so one day I decided to start playing." He stands up from stretching to start absentmindedly pacing.

in a dream you saw a way to survive (and you were full of joy) by primitivemorals
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types
22 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Jason doesn’t like how Tim has gone limp, how his lidded eyes are staring unseeing at a point in the middle distance. How he’s just sort of… accepting whatever’s happening to him.
Well, at least it’s making Jason’s job easier. He works his way up to the neck clamp (he refuses to even think the word collar), reaching in before he can hesitate. He makes quick work of the lock, and the clamp clicks open. It takes Tim a second to realize, but when he registers that he’s free, he’s up. Literally, his newly freed wings flap and he ascends. Shit, so those aren’t just for show.
or:
Tim has been missing for three months, lost in his desperate attempts to rescue Bruce.
He comes back... different.

Tim Drake doesn't exist(He never did) by CastrianAmore

Summary
When Timothy Jackson Drake left the bat and his birds it was nothing short of a messy fight. Long-standing guesses and anger and desperation because one day he was there and then suddenly he was gone. A bug wiping the systems of him ever having existed and a simple note that he was out.
It wasn't like anyone would miss him, and he made sure he wouldn't be found for a while. It was only by accident that Dick Grayson stumbled upon him 5 years in.

Summary
A short, mean, and disbelieving laugh bounces around the kitchen. “You’re joking.” Jason’s laughter turns into an outright cackle, and he has to put his coffee mug down on the counter to avoid spilling it.
“Back off.” Despite wanting to, Tim can’t hide the fact that his voice shakes, but suddenly his grip doesn’t. “Jason, I swear—”
“You gonna point that thing at me? You don’t even know what to do with it.”
The older boy is too close. Far too close. Tim flinches back, raises the gun, and without thinking about it presses it under Jason’s jaw.
All of a sudden, neither of them can breathe.
Jason’s eyes harden, glancing at the finger hovering over the trigger.
After a moment, Jason speaks up, almost softly— with how close they are, his voice doesn’t need to carry far. His voice goes flat. “This is hilarious.” The tone says otherwise.
•·················•·················•
OR: Tim has PTSD after the Titans Tower attack, and secretly keeps a gun — just in case. With Jason back in Gotham, “just in case” starts to feel more and more and more inescapable.Series

But then he looked up and saw Damian.
Right beside Dick.
Wearing red, green, and yellow.

When Dick gives away Robin, Tim runs away to the first person he can think of, and the last person who may be on his side.
