Summary
The first time he realizes he lacks autonomy he doesn’t know what the word means. Timothy Drake is six years old, and his mother dresses him up in a too tight suit. Her nails drag through his hair, forcing it into something presentable. And he spends the next four hours smiling and charming the elite at a Gala.
It is not a particularly harsh punishment, not an utter violation of who he is, but that doesn’t matter. Because Tim will look back on that night four, six, ten years later and all he will remember is having a near panic attack in the car because the suit hurt, because it was too tight and rough, and people were touching his hair and pinching his cheeks and he hated it, and they wouldn’t stop and -
His mother had cupped his face, her fingernails digging into his baby fat, and she told him to shut his mouth and bear it.
-
(Or Tim has a more complicated relationship with his autonomy, consent and gender. Not much changes.)

Summary
“Sorry to bother you,” Tim began, “I was just wondering if you had a bandage I could use to wrap my cut?”
The butler seemed to notice the excessive amount of blood soaked through his pant leg. “Oh, my. I think it would be better if I could have a look at it. That seems quite serious.”
“Really, it’s no problem. I just need a bandage,” Tim insisted.
“Nonsense,” the butler chided. “Come inside and have a seat, I’ll get you something to drink while we take care of that cut.”
or,
Tim Drake was sold to a child assassin organization by his parents. When he gets the assignment to kill Bruce Wayne, he relies on the billionaire's tendency to adopt stray children in order to form a plan.
Unfortunately, every murder attempt fails due to Bruce Wayne’s fatherly persona.

Summary
“I’m not ordering Hawaiian,” Jason said immediately as he pulled up the menu for the local pizza place. He stayed pressed to Dick’s side, revelling in the physical pressure provided by human contact, and he was pretty sure Dick was also leaning back into him as well.
“Not even if I say please?” Dick asked sweetly.
“Fuck that.” Jason ordered a Hawaiian anyway.
