Summary
Tim was not a person. He was not of flesh and blood or of warmth and soul. He was Batman’s shadow, and he would die under the growing light.
Bruce Wayne had been born to loving parents and a warm manor. Batman had been born of Gotham’s filthiest darkness. Tim had been born with the Dark Knight, slipping through the crevices of his dark shadow beneath his fluttering cape.
This was all true in both the most metaphorical and literal of ways. Tim straddled the blurry line of what was real and what lied between poetic lips. He could not, after all, remember being born to Janet Drake in a hospital bed as Jack Drake held tight to his wife’s hand. What he did remember was shuddering to life one dark night in the shadow that pooled beneath Batman.
or
Tim is both human and shadow, his consciousness alive in two different forms. In any body, he commits his life to Batman, an unkind fate that he wouldn't give up for the world.

Summary
With a frustrated noise, Dick tossed his hands up. “I…I’m not like Bruce. He would give this all up–would give us up–in exchange for his parents back. I can't fault him for that and I never will. But I…” he let out a shaky breath, voice softening, “I wouldn't.”

Summary
Years ago, young Dick Grayson was taken by the Court of Owls and made into a Talon. When Talon is flung into an alternate universe where Dick Grayson was taken in by Bruce Wayne instead, he latches onto the first familiar person he sees.
(Or: Little Bat-stalker Tim Drake is understandably alarmed to find that an undead assassin has imprinted on him.)

Summary
Timothy Drake is a liar and a fraud.
Naively, Gotham believes him.
Or; Dick Grayson, under the impression that Timothy Drake is a mercenary, hires him to kill the Joker. Spoiler alert: Timothy Drake is not, in fact, a mercenary.

Summary
Tim Drake had absolutely no intentions of ever becoming anyone's sugar daddy when he met Superboy.
This would have worked out better for him if Superboy had ever had an actual legal identity or an actual legal guardian or just . . . literally anything whatsoever in life. Ever. At all.
Just a bank account, even.
