Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
And something exhausted and brittle in Tim just snaps. “Full disclosure: I don’t care what you think.” A thrill of fear shoots down his spine as he spits those words, but he pushes it down and steps forward, glaring. His heartbeat thunders in his ears. “Look, I’m here to make a deal and I am willing to pay. I want - ”
Between one blink and the next, a searingly hot palm presses against his chest. The demon is suddenly much, much closer. Her stare bores into him as she says, in perfect tandem with his own voice, “ - Jason Todd back from the dead."
-
Or, alternatively: Tim makes a deal.

Summary
“Are your parents not home?” Bruce looks at him evenly, not giving away what he is thinking. “The house was dark all week.”
“Yeah. They’re travelling for work,” Tim says, trying to save himself. He is not sure what Bruce would do with the truth, but his job is to be unobtrusive, not to be a problem.
“But they’re taking me out for dinner this weekend to make up for it.”
That has been one of his dearest fantasies as a child. That his parents would come back early from one of their trips and take him to eat whichever inadvisable food he was obsessing over at the time that was not allowed in the house.
It is an excuse that usually works well with adults. They only ever ask once, anyway, not interested in stirring up trouble.Bruce, of course, is not like other adults and keeps asking. Tim never stood a chance.

Summary
Every witch needs a familiar, but not every familiar needs a witch. Tim, recently orphaned and freshly adopted, is a familiar that doesn't need a witch, but he needs to be a witch. Because Bruce Wayne, America's most famous familiar, only keeps company with witches. Dick is a witch. Jason is a witch. Robin is a witch.
Tim *needs* to be a witch.
But when Tim's mistakes begin to stack up, his big lie starts to come crumbling down, and his place in the family goes with it.

Summary
Noctis's cheeks are flushed, and he bites his lip. "I didn't mean like that. I mean-- can you teach me? Can you-- can you show me? You've done it, right?"
"I have, though I'm not certain I understand what you're asking for," Ignis says, brows drawing together as he considers. Noctis blushes more, cheeks darkening a rusty pink, and Ignis suddenly connects the dots. "Noctis, are you asking me to have sex with you?"

Summary
“We’re supposed to be partners,” Tim insists, as if he has any business telling off the man towering over him now. “If it were Dick or Jason telling you to—”
Bruce suddenly turns on Tim and snarls, “Don’t you dare try to compare yourself to them.” He jabs a finger at Tim. “Don’t ever act like you are anywhere near on the same level as they are. You haven’t earned the right. You’re nothing like Jason. You’re nothing like Dick. You’re just you.”
—
Bruce isn’t acting like himself. Tim is beginning to think that he may be the problem.

Summary
Emmrich dropped the folders he had been holding, the papers scattering to the floor. He flushed, and quickly shut the door behind him, despite the fact that there was no danger of anybody else seeing what lay beyond.
Rook was lying on his stomach over Emmrich’s desk, his chest pressing against the wooden surface of it, and his legs dangling over the edge, toes barely reaching the floor. He was completely naked, the only scrap of fabric on him being the soft, lilac rope that bound him.
