Summary
Running down the side of a building after your buddy comes out to you can be easily misconstrued. Once Piper and Wally get a chance to really talk after their teamup, Wally reveals that he's not homophobic in the least, just really prone to shiny-yellow-boot-in-mouth syndrome. In fact, while they're chatting Wally reveals that he has a few other gay friends, and one of them is single...

Summary
“I know you’re a meta,” you blurt.
Jason stares. “What.”
“I saw your hand—I saw the cut and the blood, but then, it was healed, somehow, right, and like, I know I wasn’t supposed to see that and then I felt really bad about it and I wanted to let you know that I know but I didn’t want you to think I was going to, like, blackmail you—”
“Blackmail me?”
“Of course not,” you quickly say. “Never. No. That’s horrible. Can you imagine what would happen if it got out?” You wince. “Sorry, stupid question, you probably have.”
or in which you discover that your neighbor, Jason Todd, is a metahuman, try to compensate, and things get a little... weird.

Summary
Jason glanced up, squinted, and immediately hit him with, “Ugh. Replacement.”
Tim’s whole body froze mid-stride. The word hit him like an anvil someone tried to pass off as a throw pillow. Replacement?? Replacement what? Replacement why? Replacement since when? He stared like Jason had just announced he was a priest now.Tim gets transported to another dimension… again, but this time it’s different. At first, he hopes it’s maybe a mirror of his reality, but the longer he looks, the clearer it becomes: it’s worse. Every familiar landmark is… well, the same actually— but every face he recognizes carries a different version of themselves. The rules of reality feel broken, and everyone is driving him mad. This dimension isn’t just strange—it’s hell. Because why does everyone insist he needs coffee?!?
Or alternatively, Tim wakes up in the Fanonverse.

Summary
“Has Robin always been this, uh…” There’s a pause that grows heavier the longer it lingers. “Stoic?”
“I dunno,” Kon sighs. “Maybe? I only ever teamed up with him like, twice before the whole ‘Kidworld’ thing, but that was before Superman came back, so there’s a pretty big gap in between.”
“I could be wrong, but…” Bart sounds uncharacteristically hesitant, like each word is being slowly pulled out of him. “I think something might have happened to him. Something bad.”
(Five rooftop encounters between the third Robin and a Kryptonian, and one that happens deep underground.)

Summary
Tim's shirt stopped right before his belly button, the light from lamppost caught on the silver piercing on his navel. Kon's eyes followed the dark snail trail underneath it and was met with a dark red lace-y thong sitting snuggly on Tim's hips.
God.
Tim was gonna kill him.
"You coming, clone boy?"

Summary
“Whoops!” says other-Tim, fitting far more giggles into the single syllable than should be possible. “Force of habit.”
Tim looks at the gun in other-Tim’s hand, at the too-familiar fingers wrapped comfortably around its trigger. He realizes he should say something to his twitchy, armed, possibly evil doppelgänger, so he very calmly tells him, “Please don’t shoot any more equipment.”
Or; Tim swaps places with a version of himself that was once captured and brainwashed by the Joker. No one in either universe is happy about it.

Summary
For the record, Tim had thought that punching the disappearing-people meta was a bad idea. And then he’d punched the neo-Nazi government agent in the face, so maybe he didn’t have any grounds to stand on. And then the personification of American patriotism, shady American spy branches, and said neo-Nazi organization that was probably part of the aforementioned came after them, and that was completely his fault.
Or: Tim and Cass get themselves involved, which has never not spelled out trouble.

Summary
“I thought we were here to talk, Hood,” he says conversationally.
The man behind him hums. He’s taller than Roy had imagined, the sound coming from right by his ear.
“We’ll talk,” comes the equally casual reply. “Just had to make sure we’re on the same page, here.”
Roy snorts.
“Not sure we are, mine didn’t have ‘threaten with bodily harm’ written on it, for one,”
“My, my, Speedy, I’m impressed,” Hood drawls, one gloved finger tapping against his blade. “I wasn’t sure you could read.”Or: Roy and Jason over the years, in an amalgamation of canon interactions and appearances Pre-New52.

Summary
Standing alone in front of an empty cave wall, Tim realizes Bruce is dead and whatever trail he's been following is gone (if it ever existed). Before he can fully process this revelation, Ra's Al Ghul forcibly pulls him into the League of Assassins' war with the Council of Spiders. The mission brings him all around the world, and delivers him into the hands of a man from Bruce's past that everyone calls the "Ghostmaker."
or
Tim avoids breaking down about being wrong that Bruce is alive by becoming Khoa's protegé and getting way too deep into the underbelly of South East Asia.

Or:
Tim goes to Metropolis University. So does about half of his previous love interests.
