DC x PJO you say...
*sweats nervously* i got an unconventional demigod batfam fic I'm working on.. you should check it out. (Tim joins the batfam but he's a demigod)
I have more ideas and info posted here tho
These are my crumbs. Please enjoy them because they are driving me crazy
Where are my children?
I know we love dp x dc
"Phantom is in the Justice League" this or "Danny joins the Batfam" that
(I do love it, please recommend me fics and posts)
But where is the dp x pjo? Is it hidden in the archives of this site? Are you telling me I need to seek out Ghost King vs Ghost King content - as if Nico and Danny wouldn't be tossed into the Hades cabin together because Chiron's staring down this half dead child like ".. I guess that counts?"
Would the Gods be pissed off to learn the Underworld and Tartarus are just one section of the Infinite Realms? You're telling me High King Phantom wouldn't stare at them like "well... I can't really fix that issue, guess I'm YOUR god now"
BETTER YET, IS THERE PJO X DC?
You're telling me Batman WOULDN'T try to adopt all these super powered children? Or is this a Diana issue? Probably, right?
"And this is Diana- what, no. No, not Artemis. Hazel, no, this is not the goddess of the moon."
"Well, my father is Zeus-" "Diana please don't encourage them."
Is there content for this??? I will take crumbs.

The Sleeping Drake Masterpost
(Aka, my crack treated seriously crossover)
This is what I have so far:
The main fic follows Tim as he learns of his demigod status and joins the batfam.
Any post labeld "demigod batfam" (or any variations) on my page are considered a part of my crossover/AU. additionally, they will all be tagged "the sleeping drake" so that they won't just be lost in the mix of everything.
The posts on here are mostly just ideas or one-off jokes. (But this one is from a scrapped Damian-centric shot i was writing)

I feel like Alfred and Bruce are self explanatory
Dick extended: i thought it would be really funny if the objectively weirdest member of the family (literally from the circus) was just some guy^TM
Jason extended: Take one good look at this man's book collection and tell me he wouldn't be a child of Athena. (Even the duffle bag was a strategic move for intimidation)
Tim extended: The one who started it all. (It is named after him) basically i took the "he can/will fall asleep anywhere" bit and ran with it. And then potentially took it to far
Steph extended: someone in this family has to be normal. (Dick and Bruce don't count)
Babs extended: I wanted Jim Gordon to still be her biological father, so I did some research and found Themis, the titan-goddess of justice, law, and oracles, who inspired the lady justice statues.
Cass extended: The girl raised to read people. She sees everything. She might not be a demigod, but she is a natural at controlling the mist, let alone seeing through its bullshit.
Duke extended: his farther, from what I can tell atm, is an apparent imortal being with powers that Duke inherited. I wasn't going to touch his meta abilities, and this doubly so. But because of his abilities, he can see everything.
Damian extended: at first it was just: "haha, the angry ninja? A child of the sun?" Then it turned into: "Oh shit, he canonically wants to be a doctor?" And now it's literally my favorite.
Other miscellaneous lore:
Lady gotham is a minor deity/spirt
Brucie got Apollo pregnant (Talia is the adoptive mother)
Bruce, Dick, and Steph are not in the know until Duke shows up
Jason doesn't learn he's a demigod until after his death
Jim Gordon knows Babs is a demigod
The LoA collects halfbloods

Hear me out. HEAR ME OUT.
DC X Epic:TheMusical
Tim Drake who is the descent of the last line of Odysseus (so a descendent of Hermes) through Jack and a daughter of Athena (Janet)
Athena who misses her friend Odysseus and sees so much of him in Tim, who is technically her grandchild and she's so excited about it.
Hermes who also considered Odysseus his friend in a way also seeing so much of him in Tim and being more loudly giddy about it.
Athena and Hermes who absolutely adore Tim and are so proud of him because their kid is so smart and brave and strong and witty.
YES OMG TIM X EPIC???
first of all tim’s hero costume 100% has attributes to both athena and hermes. tim is so insanely offended about the court of owls he decides to make his costume vaguely owl themed to spite them and pay tribute to athena. his shoes also have little feathers on them for hermes (hermes maybe possibly made them flying shoes but no one needs to know that. that is a secret between tim, hermes, athena, and young justice)
of course he doesn’t tell any of the batfam. wonder woman knows cause she can feel the divinity in tim and respects his decision not to tell the batfam so she says nothing outside of a causal “would you like a spar one day?” and that’s the end of that.
he does learn the greek style of sword fighting and also archery. he makes a collapsible bow in the style of odysseus’ bow and even if he doesn’t use it much he always has it on him, both as another tool just in case and a way to honor his long ago relative. and he sees the look in athena and hermes’ eyes when he uses it and wants them to know he’s keeping his legacy alive, even if he never explicitly states it.
his morals are probably a bit less strict. he doesn’t want to kill but he was raised by a demigod and two gods and they definitely have a different view on killing. he sees killing as more of a last resort, if he needs to kill he will but he’ll also do his best not to get there.
during his early stalking the bats days either athena or hermes was always with him. he was nine and while yes he was definitely well trained he was NINE.
bruce quest definitely goes differently. he’s still at like the lowest point of his life, his mom and dad are dead, steph is ‘dead’, bart is dead, kon is dead, cassie is in a cult, the hero community thinks he’s insane, he’s not robin anymore, and bruce is *gone*. but he has athena and hermes (who by the way is very proud of tim being such a good thief. he trained him for sure) and that helps his mental state so much.
the league of assassins and the council still happen, tim still loses his spleen but when he attacks the league he doesn’t worry much about the consequences of blowing the bases up. he doesn’t need to know the exact number of deaths, he hopes a couple of assassins got out but he knows there’s a substantial amount dead.
he’s nowhere near ra’s level, but he does fight him to a closer standstill which only endears him to ra’s more and tim is very much not cool with that. neither are either of the gods. he does Not need ra’s as a father figure thank you very much. hermes takes out any annoyance out on ra’s and really shows he’s the god of mischief
tim also somehow acquires a winion. no one but him knows how. hermes and athena looked away for ten seconds when he was 11 and suddenly he has a winion who is Very against leaving. none of the batfam are sure what it is just that it never leaves tim alone for more than 2 seconds. you know how some animatics just have a random winion with the crew? it’s that winion.
tim also definitely doesn’t just go with red robin as a name once he realizes he can actually choose his own and names himself something honoring both athena and hermes. at this point he also starts using his bow more much to the annoyance of bruce and that’s purely cause tim said he was inspired by oliver just to fuck with bruce.
oliver also sees how good of a shot tim is and is trying to get custody. little does he know bruce doesn’t even have custody athena and hermes got custody of him through a fake identity. bruce has no idea who his guardians are and it drives him crazy cause hes found out they’re not fake and very present in tim’s life BUT HE CANT FIND THEM
#tim drake#bruce wayne#batfamily#epic#epic hermes#epic athena#epic the musical#dc stands for disregard canon#chaotic tim drake#tim drake is a menace#tim has gods as parental figures and doesn’t think it’s important to tell anyone#poseidon saw him once and got flashbacks to 600 strikes and now every time tim goes on the sea it’s the most peaceful thing ever#owls also adore tim#so do snakes#he went into the batcave once with five owls and seven snakes on him and acted like normal#he gaslit everyone else into thinking they were crazy#the only people who know are either connected to the greek pantheon or yj#bart just nodded and then asked tim to do a trick shot#kon found said trick shot hot and honestly that was more pressing than tim not being fully mortal#cassie just got excited she wasn’t the only demigod on the team#tim uses his shoes for the most mundane things but refuses to use them for vigilantism cause of the questions#he uses them to get top shelf stuff#ooc

I know that people love to headcanon Tim as a child of Athena, I personally like to headcanon him as child of Hades due to his similarities with Nico and the fact that dead seems to follow that kid like a motherfucker but never actually reach HIM.
But hear me out.
Tim as a child of Dionysus. And he gets claimed during the Bruce-quest.
When he was in Gotham monsters were a usual thing. You never knew that they were there for your godly blood, you just thought that they were things created by pollution or something like that. And when he became Robin fighting things that wanted to kill you while saying weird things was more usual than a hug (not that that was a hug standard for Tim).
But then everyone started dying. His parents, Kon, Bart, Steph, BRUCE. Everyone. Every. One.
And Tim…Tim couldn’t seem to reach madness. I mean YEAH he wasn’t doing great by any standard, but he knew madness, he grew up in madness, and he wasn’t going mad.
The cloning was just a treat.
And during the Bruce-quest, everyone thought he was crazy, he was casted away because everyone thought he was crazy CRAZY Tim can’t he crazy! He knows that! He knows that in his blood that going crazy isn’t a chance for him. He made everyone crazy when they were around him (hence Jason. He knew that Jason was mad at him from the start, but going near Tim lighted a flame inside him that Tim is sure isn’t completely Jason’s) but Tim couldn’t go crazy. He could ACT crazy. But never too serious.
And then, in the depths of Greece, he met his dad. His real dad.
He always knew that Jake wasn’t his dad. The blonde hair his mother forced him to dye since he was 5 and the purple eyes his father forced him to hide with contacts told him that. But Tim grew up looking up at Jack, even if Jack didn’t love him, he was the dad that decided to (figuratively) stay. And Tim loved him till death.
But when that man appeared, Tim knew, with only a moment of stares, that that man was his father. They talked a bit, too. The man knew about everything Tim was doing, and that creeped Tim out, but when the man made appear a glass of wine for Tim (and one side for himself) and Tim drank it, he knew what he was.
Something on the flavor, on the feeling. It was Tim. It was home. Something he hadn’t feel in a long time.
He spent the rest of the quest feeling sure that he would make it, because somewhere on the heavens his dad was looking out for him, he promised he was. And this time it wasn’t a figuratively sentimental bullshit. His dad was really helping on the heavens. And Tim was gonna make it.
He saw him again when the quest ended. He appeared in all of his godly glory while Tim was living in the nest. He opened a can of soda and sat on his couch like he wasn’t a man Tim has only met twice, but that was ok, because that was his dad, and he was choosing to visit him. (Also, he wasn’t going to say no to a literal GOD) .
He yapped for two hours about the kids at the camp his dad forced him to work at ( “HE IS SUCH AN A-HOLE SOMETIMES TIM YOU DONT UNDERSTAND-“) and the more he talked about that camp, the more invested Tim got. At the end of it the man, his dad, just looked at him in the eye and said “y’know if you were there we could do this more often. Yer a better listener than that centaur. Also, I think your brothers would like having you there”
He leaves immediately for camp after that. The family thinks Tim decided to leave them for not believing in him, so it’s a shock when he comes back after the summer being great with a sword and with a Tan his skin haven’t known before, not even after fighting crime during the hottest days on San Francisco, and he was happy, like actually happy. A kind of happy he never was with them.
Tim made friends there. He was friends with Annabeth, a girl from the Athena cabin, who honestly thought that Tim was one of them after they had a talk about strategies on the field and all that, and was about to fist fight Dionysus for claiming one of her brothers. She still called him brother, but now she understood that Tim was a Dionysus kid. And her boyfriend Percy. They talked all night about the weight of being a leader and having your people die without you being able to do anything. Percy talked about a boy named Ethan and two girls named Zoe and Bianca. Tim talked about Steph, Kon and Bart.
Tim told him about the Bruce-quest, and Percy told him about the time he was ready to fist fight a good to get his mother back from the underworld.
He also fully loved his brother. Pollux was great and made him feel welcomed to camp. They talked during lunch and Pollux showed him every single thing that made camp especial. He also teached him how to make fun of their dad without turning into a dolphin, so yeah. They got along like a house on fire.
He also made friends with a girl from the Aphrodite cabin. Her name is Drew. She was kind of an asshole and tried flirting with him, and THEY DID GET TOGETHER FOR A BIT, but after some time they decided they were better as friends. And friends they were. Best friend even.
He never told the Batfam any of this.
So after some months in Gotham there’s a cult going around calling themselves “Children of Dionysus” and doing atrocious things.
Duke walked in on Tim trashing the training room of the cave, and later on Jason walked in on Tim having his fourth bottle of wine.
Tim was FURIOUS. Not only that was disrespectful to his dad, but to his brother and himself too. He was going to pick every part of that little cult and trash it.
There he meets Bernard. Then they get on a relationship.
When a sathyr comes to take Bernard to camp Tim goes with him, excited to have his dad meeting his boyfriend.
Dionysus has never been more uncomfortable than when he had to claim his son’s boyfriend in front of him. It wasn’t that hard before! But now they had those things against incest on the human world and he knew this wouldn’t be pleasant to any of his sons.

Prompt:
Demigods edition!
Dick — son of Zeus or Aphrodite
Jason — son of Hades or Thanatos
Tim —son of Athena
Steph — daughter of Hermes
Duke — son of Apollo
And Bruce is a god who pretends to be human and accidentally keeps adopting demigod children, regardless of which deity he’s pissing off by doing so.
#Bruce and his accidental collection of children#he doesn’t know how he got them but they’re his now#the other gods didn’t want them? cool. BRUCE wants them#I think Jason as a son of Ares would also fit#but alas the cthonic vibes were too hard to pass up#also Dick as a son of Aphrodite with his charm speak would also be cool#jason todd#batfamily#dick grayson#batfam#bruce wayne#robin#tim drake#batman#red hood#duke thomas#stephanie brown#demigods#prompts

Annabeth Chase and Tim Drake: The Ultimate Problem-Solvers Team-Up
Imagine!! Annabeth and Tim—two of the sharpest minds in their respective universes—deciding to team up for a project. Whether it’s a mystery that transcends realms or a puzzle involving both Greek mythology and Gotham’s criminal underworld, these two would be an unstoppable duo.
Picture it: Annabeth and Tim in a dimly lit library at Gotham University, poring over ancient texts and high-tech blueprints. Annabeth’s got her Greek mythology books open, while Tim’s hacking into secure databases with one hand and flipping through detective files with the other. They’re working on solving a riddle that involves an ancient Greek artifact with links to a new crime wave in Gotham.
Tim’s impressed by Annabeth’s ability to decode symbols and her deep understanding of mythology, while Annabeth is fascinated by Tim’s tech skills and his knack for strategic thinking. Together, they’re a force of intellect and innovation, blending mythological knowledge with cutting-edge technology.
Annabeth might be amazed by Gotham’s tech-savvy gadgets, while Tim is completely blown away by the ancient Greek traps and enchanted artifacts Annabeth has encountered. They’d probably spend hours exchanging knowledge—Tim explaining Gotham’s underworld and its quirks, while Annabeth shares tales of demigods, monsters, and Olympus.
During one of their intense brainstorming sessions, Tim might offer Annabeth a cup of coffee, only for her to raise an eyebrow and say, “I’m more of a nectar and ambrosia girl.” And Tim would laugh, responding, “Guess I’ll have to upgrade my beverage game.”
Eventually, after solving the mystery and uncovering the artifact, Tim and Annabeth would have a moment of mutual respect and camaraderie. They’d both know that they make an unbeatable team, and there’s a good chance they’d stay in touch.
#annabeth chase#tim drake#pjo x dc#brainpower duo#annabeth chase and tim drake#vigilante meets demigod#maybe annabeth also finds interest in gothams goth style architect like the gargoyles

Tim absolutely has a whole folder of contingencies for Bernard's conspiracy theories. Like yes they're fucking wild and nonsensical half the time. But also they live in Gotham and weird stuff happens all the time. Like Tim's paranoia rivals batman's. You can't tell me this man wouldn't have some plans just in case.

It all started when Buzzfeed Unsolved made a video about Delphi Strawberry Services. . Or did it start with that one tweet? . Well… maybe it all started when a kid from Gotham Academy went missing a little over a year ago. A kid who just so happened to be in Damian’s Third Grade Class. . Actually, how it really all started, was that Austin Lake created a Social Media Platform to promote his music online. And it all snowballed from there.
(can be read as a stand alone fic, or as an AU of Sunlit Gotham)

Tim Drake x PJO Aphrodite kid AU drabble
Tim was never more in his element than when he was at a gala. A party. A soirée. A fundraiser rubbing shoulders with the heights of society, or the dregs, depending on one’s perspective.
He was built for it, afterall.
Five feet and seven inches of lean muscle and a shockingly defined figure, he had the shiny, healthy, onyx dark hair, perfectly clear skin, and defined cheekbones to make anyone swoon. People said he inherited all his mother’s looks, which was entirely too accurate, a private joke for him alone.
He did look an awful lot like Janet Drake. He just also inherited quite a few of Aphrodite’s characteristics as well.
It was all in his voice. Where Janet was sharp and hawkish, her remarks biting in a way you could feel, but couldn’t quite counter, Tim’s voice was melodic. It lulled anyone within earshot into a sense of trust and security. Your secrets were safe with him. Look at him - would he do you any harm? Why don’t you tell him all the details of the deal you’re brokering with Mr. Luthor?
He could glide across the floor in a dance, leading or following depending on who his partner was, charm the pants off anyone he wanted to, or quickly disengage from anyone he didn’t. He was everything Janet could have hoped for in a magical baby delivered to her by Eros himself following an affair with the most stunning woman in all of Paris. At least it was a plausible explanation for why he could speak French fluently.
Yes, Tim was the pride of both of his mother’s when he put away his pretenses and just let his godly side flex for a moment. Sure, being half god helped him heal faster, keep the superhero physique, and have the reflexes one needed to excel as Red Robin. But getting to be his mother’s son on these nights….it felt good.
Which was why he maybe forgot the directive for the night. Which was to make a briefer than normal appearance before departing for patrol. He was filing away the information Mrs. Tipton was telling him about her husband, the senator’s, exquisite time in the Iceberg Lounge for the case he was working, when he felt Bruce and Damian’s eyes on him across the room.
He elected to ignore them. If they wanted him to patrol that badly tonight, they could tell him themselves. Have Steph do it, she’d been adamant she not have to attend the gala. He continued to circle the party, sauntering around, moving his hips more than he justifiably needed to to walk, but sue him for knowing his ass looked really good in this suit. It only helped his charmspeak; people wanted to believe they were still attractive and young, and if an attractive young person complimented them and accepted them as one of their own, it only made his words more potent. Whoever said that sex sold wasn’t a liar.
He allowed the young son of some board member or the other to lead him onto the dance floor, quickly beguiling him and tracing the right threads to tug in an embezzlement investigation. The other man (Rufus, Tim learned, a family name apparently) wouldn’t even remember the contents of their conversation, Tim’s words were so potent, just that it had ended with a good-bye kiss to the cheek.
Bruce did care, it turned out. He approached Tim at the edge of the party near the refreshment table.
“You were supposed to be patrolling tonight. Jason requested your help with the trafficking investigation.”
“Steph can do it,” Tim said, “I’m more useful here.”
“Tim, you know that route better than anyone-”
“Bruce,” Tim looked him straight in the eyes, “you want me at this gala. This is where I shine. Stephanie can work that patrol. I’ll find more information now to generate leads for more cases than just Black Mask.”
The charmspeak wrapped around his words, causing Bruce to pause, clearly struggling against the magic. He had a strong mind, Tim could give him that.
“You want this, Bruce. I’m helping people.” Tim pushed.
He knew that wasn’t really how charmspeak was supposed to work. Forcing his will onto other people wasn’t how it was most effective, he should be more subtle about it. But Tim took great pride in being the only one to lie to Batman, and he didn’t need magic to do it. He could be convincing all on his own. Afterall, Aphrodite might have made his tongue silver, but Janet was the one who made it sharp. He was his mothers’ son, and he could convince anyone of anything.
“Yes, of course,” Bruce succumbed, “I’ll ask Steph to meet up with Jason.”
Tim’s face morphed into the perfect breezy, carefree smile. “Yes, you will.” He made eye contact across the room with his next mark, a known pawn of Scarecrow, the daughter of some uppercrust Bristol couple, and current chemistry student at Gotham University. He wasn’t wrong. He could help more people here.
It was also way more fun.
