Investigative Journalist Tim Drake AU

Tim is a stalker. He found out Batman and Robin's identities at the age of ten. He found out several other superheroes/villains identities just to see if her could.

Upon figuring out these identities, he stumbles upon Clark Kent... and more importantly, Lois Lane.

See, Tim was solving GCPD cold cases in his free time. It's fun and helpful. The issues with this hobby, however, are trying to pass along his findings to Gordon and the fact that Batman already does this activity in *his* free time. His work is a little bit redundant even if it does help.

But then he reads some of Lois Lane's works. Then, he sees the direct impact they have on unearthing corruption, changing policies, obtaining convictions against powerful people, and bringing awareness to white collar crime.

Batman, Robin, and Gordon try to assist with those matters in Gotham, but their main priorities seem to revolve around violent crime.

And, well, Tim can anonymously post articles.

This leads to him hero-worshipping Lois Lane, utilizing his stalking skills to gather evidence, and becoming a well-known journalist and photographer under the alias "Alvin Drapper."

More joker junior and bernard I beg

Didn't expect this ask, I think I made like, one singular quote for them?? Anyways, have so snacc: ☕🍪🍪🍪

Based off my J.J. AU of course, so context: After the J.J. incident and Tim killin' the Joker, Bruce locks Tim up in Arkham (womp womp) and two years later the Red Hood shows up, realizes dayum the clown dead :// does the crime lord thing while figuring out what happened to said clown, finds out about Tim, goes to Arkham, decides to keep Tim. Bam.

Bernard: Soooo...

Tim: SoooooOoOOoOOoO?

Bernard: There's this school dance coming up.

Tim: Oo, fun!

Bernard: Yeah, um, it... It will be, probably, but, um... I was wondering if you'd maybe go with me? If you want?

Tim, blinking slowly at him: . . . I don't know if that's such a good idea. I mean, I'm...

Tim, gesturing to himself: I'd ruin your reputation! You've worked hard on that, haven't you? Mr. Ambassador of all cliques! Haha...

Bernard: Tim, I don't... I don't care, about any of that, I just— I wanna be with you.

Tim: Why would ya wanna do that? I... I'm not how normal people are, I'm legally dead— heck I'm legally a John Doe! A Joker Junior! I'm not... You could be happy—

Bernard: Yeah, I could be, if you'd go to this dance with me? Or, forget the dance, just go out with me?

Tim: It's not that easy... I'm... I'm a lot to handle, so I've been told.

Bernard: I have two hands.

Tim:

Bernard:

Tim: Fair warning, if you keep being nice to me, I'm gonna get attached. It's basically how Jason got stuck with me.

Bernard: I'd like to be nice to you for the rest of my life then.

Tim: . . . Okay.

Bernard: Okay?

Tim: I'd love to go dancing with you.

Bernard, trying to play it cool: Yeah, okay, cool.

Tim: Cool.

Stephanie, from three rooftops away: DID HE SAY YES!?

Bernard, shouting back: HE SAID YES!

Stephanie: WHOOOOOO!!!

Bernard: —And that's why I believe Superman is actually a figment of all of our imaginations. The world's most convincing and reoccurring Mandela effect!

Jason, whispering to Tim: Ya sure you like this guy..?

Tim: What if seals are just sea cats!?

Bernard, gasping: YOU GENIUS!

Jason: Nevermind.

—

Jason: What's your intention with my brother?

Bernard: To share conspiracy theories and probably set things on fire.

Tim: I like fire.

Jason: Hmm... Approved, just don't p-$& off Poison Ivy.

Yesterday I was blessed by THREE new chapters of one of my favorite tim drake fics and the end scene of the last update was just!! CHEFS KISS!!! The way Tim sacrificed himself with em’s blood still drying on his sleeves- the soft reveal of Jax to Tim to Timothy (and if you know me at all you know I looove a reveal >:D )- the SYMBOLISM of Tim never removing his mask!!! Aaaaaa! I pumped this comic out just this afternoon bc the visuals were so so goooood! Kinda rushed at the end bc I felt myself running out of steam and I wanted to finish PRONTO so this didn’t end up in my eternal WIP pile which grows by the day. Full brag I’m actually very proud of this lol, esp the mask panels on page 1 and dick’s screaming expression on page 4.

If for some reason you read this far and have yet to read 1-800-GOTHAM here is the link to the first chapter, seriously one of the best tim joins the family late fics ever 🙏

@goldfishinaplasticbag is the author!! Thank you for all your hard work and the especially thick chapters <3 <3

Ok, but do you think Jonathan ever buys his partner a bedside lamp, but not like normal one. No! That cute design targeted towards children? I can definitely see it, specially if there is like pumpkin or crow one.

Jonathan as child definitely had nights were he just woke up alone in darkness without any comfort, so now, he makes sure that, if his partner feels scares they can have a light to chase shadows away.

I can also see him buying like this string lights to put around his partner room, or even around a house. Just so there is always a way to chase darkness away. Beside he thinks they look neat on his book shelves and he is right!

Jonathan reluctantly commisions Edward to create a little scarecrow lamp for his partner is something I truly need and is now canon to my au.

Because Jonathan is only monster allowed under his partner's bed.

Full page under the cut

Bonus:

I love the Star Sapphire Jason Todd concept so much, just bailing my eyes out 20 minutes ago 🥺

A soft mumble left him as he reached over and slowly took the cap off, holding it as steady as he could as he took some out and drank it down in one gulp. How long it would take he didn't know but hopefully soon. Having such a terrible headache on top of the bruises he had wasn't helping. He was already dreading what his father would say after all.

Jack managed to talk to a nurse and walked back over to him quietly. "Hey, good news, I got the aspirin. " He stated as he placed the bottle beside him gently along with a glass of water. "I really hope this helps."

If chaos was personified I think it would be Damian. Tiny child filled with rage and equipped with far too many weapons.

They look SO CUTE altogether!!

I love this au so much. Bats on thrones makes me so happy.

[domnorian]

It was supposed to be just Conner as an adult. But I got a little bit carried away...

[reginalusus]

Might have to click for detail.

Terrible and fucked up AU where after Harvey kills Jason's dad for being a dick, he becomes his new dad(s). (This is just an excuse to draw Harvey with baby Jason).

Bluesky Ko-Fi

[marsantiquity]

Jason and Damian have dinner at Roy and Lian's place :))

Jason Version

Dick Grayson as Robin, who was taught to slow down his breathing if he was ever scared or trapped to reduce how much oxygen he wastes. It also lowers his heartbeat and makes him harder to detect.

Tiny, terrified Dick who's trapped in a half collapsed room, tears running down his face, but his breathing is like he's asleep, slow and even. The scans the GCDP do fail to locate him, his heat signature not enough to be conclusive, and his heartbeat too slow to even pick up. They move on. Leave him behind.

It takes almost 30 minutes for Bruce to locate him. 30 slow, gruesome minutes. Seconds tick by and all Dick can think about his Bruce's training. Breath in. Hold for as long as comfortable. Breath out. Over and over again until his racing heart is almost still. Until he fools the world that he's dead. Until he fools himself.

When Bruce pulled Dick out, he worried for a moment the boy was actually gone. Only for Dick to perk up, clinging to Bruce's shoulders, his heart rate speeding up, and his breathing becoming sporadic as he finally lets himself panic properly.

Joker Jr. au comic thing and also Kon is there because I love drawing him

[dc-gotham-instincts-wild]

Smol Au where Bruce heard one 1 detail about Tim’s home life and immediately went into Bat-Dad Override Mode.

Like, imagine Tim offhandedly mentioning something like, “Oh yeah, my parents used to forget I existed sometimes. I once had to fake a break-in just to get their attention.” And Bruce just freezes. Cue the world's longest internal monologue:

"Wait. What. What do you mean 'forget you existed'? What do you mean 'fake a break-in'? TIM, WHAT DO YOU MEAN—"

And the next thing you know, Tim blinks and—boom, Brucie Wayne has casually committed legal theft.

Paperwork? Done. Custody battle? There was none. Jack Drake? Doesn’t even realize he’s been replaced yet. Bruce just pulls some billionaire strings, has Alfred pack up Tim’s things, and suddenly Tim legally belongs to the Batfamily (As if he didn't emotionally belong to them already)

Tim: “Wait, what?” Bruce: “You live here now.” Tim (Scared of Jack): “But my father-” Bruce (Hugging him): “No. I'm done seeing you go back to a place where they don't care.”

Meanwhile, Dick, Jason, Cass, Steph, and Damian are in the background, going absolutely feral over the fact that Bruce didn’t do this sooner.

Dick is so happy he picks Tim up and swings him around like a ragdoll.

Jason takes the opportunity and breaks into the place and steals the expensive stuff that Tim mentioned he liked.

Cass just smiles and nods approvingly before immediately making Tim do some ridiculous high-difficulty sparring because "You are true family."

Steph is thriving because she’s been screaming about how her twin deserved better for years. More chaos fun for them now.

Meanwhile, Damian is pretending to be normal about it.

He’s sitting there like “Hmph. This changes nothing.”

Internally, he is losing his mind. “Father should have stolen custody a long time ago.”

He spends the next month being extra insufferable about Tim’s new legal status but also follows him around just a bit more than usual.

Then Duke shows up later, and the other Batkids make sure he gets the memo.

Cass just hands him a file labeled “People We Hate.” Jack Drake is at the top.

Jason corners him like “If you ever see a Ouija board, we’re using it to haunt Jack Drake.”

Dick just gives him the reasons straight

Steph just mentions it once or twice.

Damian openly insults Jack at a gala

By the end of the week, Duke is fully briefed and casually says “Screw Jack Drake” at the dinner table, earning an approving nod from Jason.

[brucewaynehater101]

Alright alright.

This post combined with the "Tim was Duke's Robin growing up."

Add that with the "Duke becomes a Robin-like protege to Tim helping anchor an adrift RR" au.

What do we get?

Tim calmly and patiently working with Duke, particularly with his powers.

The two of them causing chaos and showing each other their tricks to circumvent blame/suspicion.

Tim slightly dissociating as he's showing Duke a move Bruce once showed him. Duke's cursed fumbling bringing him back to the present.

Tim trying to channel his inner Dick Grayson as he supports Duke despite his mixed feelings about it. Tim slipping up and referring to Duke as Dick used to refer to him: "baby bird."

Duke freezing.

Tim internally panicking (and quite a bit externally) as he apologizes.

Duke uncharacteristically hesitant as he allows Tim to call him by that endearment.

This brings them closer together (pretty much family) while painfully healing some of their hurts
