The Many Names of One Very Special Clone Boy by JpegDotJpeg

Summary
Tim Drake is a solitary creature, whether by necessity or by natural predisposition. But he’s good at being alone. He’s learned to enjoy his own company, to take solace in his own cognizance. Aided by the brisk air of Gotham’s night air and a thrilling sense of independence, Tim learns that some things feel more special when you get to keep them for yourself. Unaccompanied walks down the school halls and singular movie tickets and dinners-for-one aren’t so bad when he can entertain himself with his own thoughts.
Tim has become so good at being alone, he can almost pretend he isn’t desperate for the unconditional love and companionship that a soulmate would guarantee.
It would be nice, Tim thinks, to have someone in his life who actually wants him. Someone who won’t leave every chance they get. Someone who enjoys his presence instead of merely tolerating it. Someone for whom he isn’t an obligation.
Still his wrist remains blank.
Until it doesn't.

I'm a Good Pretender by shipNslash

Summary
“You’re doing it again,” Bruce says, tone accusatory. “You’re faking.”
“It’s not faking,” Dick snaps, a little more aggressive than he means to be. But he doesn’t like that word, doesn’t like the connotations.
(Especially when he knows Bruce is lying about something, too.)
“Then what is it?”
“It’s called being charming and it’s nice.”
-_-
Dick’s mother raised her son to be a star. Dick’s father raised his son to be an athlete.
Bruce's new ward is charming (manipulative), dedicated (obsessive), and way, way too smart for either of their own good.

Summary
Bruce doesn’t like to credit one thing for saving his life, but if he did, it would be Haly’s Circus that Friday night in September, just as summer was beginning to die.
(He'll always be a sucker for kids with sad eyes, no parents, and more fight than the world knows what to do with.)
Or: in a universe where superheroes don't exist, Bruce Wayne finds his family.

'He could probably argue that he wasn't, actually, stealing these artifacts; all of it was already stolen. He was just returning things to their rightful cultural owners, honestly. Even when the museums and collectors that held those treasures disagreed.'

I Want it That Way (1990s Tim/Kon) by WynterSky
Fandom: Batman (Comics), Reign of the Supermen (2019), Superboy (Comics), Superman (Comics), The Death of Superman (2018)
28 Jan 2025
Summary
Tim/Kon fics set in a lazily researched 1990s universe (written by an authentic 90s kid but I lived under a rock).
Mostly based on post-crisis comics canon but using some later elements I enjoy as well. Series focuses on an alternate scenario where Superboy is created by Luthor and starts out secretly working for him.

Summary
Tim and Damian have hated one another since the day that the youngest Wayne arrived in Gotham City. A few years later, that hatred has cooled into a mutual disdain and somewhat-wary tolerance. If necessary, they can even work together— though neither likes to. Then Tim discovers that Damian enjoys bird-watching too. Or: sometimes the difficult things are the most rewarding.

Summary
Tim's parents faked their deaths and fled the country years ago, but neglected to take him with them. He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

Summary
Jaemin hums exaggeratedly, nodding his head. “Right, right. Superhero boyfriends kicking ass and taking names, hm?”
Mark scowls, turning away from Jaemin’s fierce grin. He and Haechan are friends at most. And he doesn’t have a crush on the other superhero, he just admires the fact he’s not leaving the city to only Mark’s hands and is immensely grateful for the help he provides. Plus, it was only four months ago that Mark wanted to pummel him to the ground for coming to New York and stealing his thunder.
[or: Mark gains a partner and a new place to call home all after: taking a hiatus, developing two different crushes, getting kidnapped, and then coming to terms with a few things. The good stuff apparently.]

Summary
Every time he falls in love, Tim writes an email and keeps it tightly locked on his trusty laptop and a hundred different password-protection programs. This time is no different... except for the fact that the guy he's in love with, Jason Todd-Kyle, is about to become his stepbrother.
When those emails are mysteriously sent to their recipients one night, Tim will have to deal with a lot more than just awkward middle-school crushes -- including his family's happiness.

Summary
“I know what you’re going to say, Batman,” Damian said, shrugging the hand off his shoulder. “You’re going to tell me that Nightwing is dead, and that people don’t come back from the dead. Well, clearly you are wrong, seeing that you were dead and I was dead and Red Hood was dead and even Superman was once dead-”
“My parents are dead,” Father interrupted. “Nightwing’s parents are dead. There have been a few notable exceptions in extenuating circumstances, Robin, but the rule stands. Everyone can die.”
OR
Damian meets a 10-year-old Dick Grayson, and they become best friends.
