You Don't Get to Call Yourself Family (Tim Drake is a Fenton)

part 1 , part 2

It starts with another of Dick’s attempts to be Tim’s Big Brother™.

It’s well-meaning, of course. They’re mid-patrol, crouched on a rooftop, when Dick gently brings it up.

“You know, Tim, we could be family if you’d just let us.”

Tim freezes for a moment, his grip tightening on his grappling gun. But then he exhales, forces himself to focus, and mutters: “I told you. You’re coworkers. That’s it.”

But Dick doesn’t drop it. And when they return to the Cave, the rest of the Batfamily piles on—each in their own way.

Jason: “C’mon, Replacement. Admit it. We’re at least kinda family.”

Damian, sneering: “He’s too much of a coward to acknowledge it.”

Bruce, quiet but insistent: “Tim, this is your home. We are your family.”

And Tim—who’s been holding this in for years—finally snaps.

“Family?!” Tim’s voice echoes through the Cave, sharp and brittle like glass about to shatter. “You think you’re my family?!”

Everyone goes still.

Tim takes a step forward, fury radiating off him in waves. “Let me ask you something—what kind of family depends on a thirteen-year-old to pull their grieving father out of the abyss because no one else could be bothered? What kind of family calls him Replacement and then beats him bloody because he’s not good enough?!”

Jason flinches, but Tim doesn’t stop.

“What kind of family tries to kill him multiple times and laughs it off like it’s a fucking joke?” His eyes land on Damian, who looks like he wants to argue but doesn’t. “And what kind of family stands by and watches it happen and does nothing?!”

The silence is deafening.

Tim’s breath hitches, and he rakes a hand through his hair. “If you’re family, then why—why the hell did you all hurt me so much?”

No one can look him in the eye. Not even Bruce.

Tim’s voice drops, tired and cracked. “I can’t call you family. Because if I did, I’d have to accept that my family treated me like shit. And I already have one family, that loves me—I don’t need another one that makes me feel like I’m nothing.”

He turns on his heel, heading for the exit. “You’re my coworkers. That’s all you’ll ever be, and honestly? It's more than you deserve.”

And then he’s gone.

————

Later, Jazz calls him.

“You okay, Timmers?” she asks gently, voice soft in that way only Jazz can manage.

Tim sighs, rubbing his eyes. “Yeah. I just… lost it at them. Finally told them off.”

Jazz hums thoughtfully. “Good. They needed to hear it.”

Tim doesn’t respond right away, staring at the faint glow of the Batcomputer across the Cave. “Do you think I was too harsh?”

Jazz doesn’t hesitate. “No. You set a boundary. They’ve been pushing it for years. Let them sit with it for a while.”

Tim doesn’t know if he believes her, but he nods anyway. “Thanks, Jazz.”

“Always,” she replies. “Now come home for dinner. Mom’s trying a new ectoplasm casserole recipe, and Danny is threatening to ‘accidentally’ destroy the kitchen again.”

He laughs, already grabbing his things. “Be there in ten.”

I wish the fandom discussed Raven's issues with her mother more.

The dynamic is so fascinating to me, the whole

" She loves you, but a version of you that will never exist. She has been you, and you will be her, and your child will be folded into the cycle. You look just like her. You don't act like her. You will soon enough. To your child, you will be her, you will never escape her, there will always be a frightened child and a maliciously loving parent in that cold, dark palace. She walked over broken glass just to be with you. She poisoned one of your best friends just to be with you. She loves you, cares about you, so so much. She will never accept what you want to be, will never understand you. She loves you so so much, and you love her, and you hate her too. "

The visceral need for a Tim drake fanfic centred around time loops (maybe multiple loops so Tim never knows when it ends). Like, angst filled, hurt/little comfort, psychological deep dive into his head. The idea of Tim mirroring the worst year of his life (Red Robin run) as he's forced to relive the same few days and is forced to become his own person and identity before eventually learning to trust and lean on others to help him break the loop

Luo Binghe can count the times he’s seen Ming Fan drunk on one hand. Which only makes this time all the more memorable.

She Hulk episode concept: Jen travels to New York to visit Matt Murdock—she emphasizes this is a stress free week off with no superheroing or lawyering.

So obviously a monster attacks or something however Peter Parker Spider-Man swings in to save the day. Jen goes to thank him and asks how much does she owe him—girl knows this superhero stuff isn’t cheap—but he instead says he needs a lawyer

*queue She Hulk title card*

Spider-Man explains that someone has reversed engineered his web fluid and is trying to sell it as building grade cement. He knows that the fluid dissolves in 12 hours and that it isn’t safe to build with. The seller doesn’t care and Spider-Man isn’t keen on beating him up as he hasn’t broken the law, so instead he wants to sue for copyright. One issue though: The patent for the webbing is locked up in the very well secured Stark Towers.

The episode would be comprised of multiple Iron Man related cameos while the gang tries to obtain that patent before the bootleg webbing can be sold.

Bonus: Jen is also increasingly annoyed that she can’t figure out who Spider-Man is despite her 4th wall breaking nature—it’s almost as if there’s a spell obscuring his identity or something.

Stumbled across this kid named Jonas Connor on TikTok, and he’s my new Robin!Jason fancast. He’s a singer/songwriter, but he’s 15 looking like he’s 12,

(Also listen to his songs, a decent amount of them are going onto my Jason Todd playlist)

(Also, I know we don’t like the Titans live action in general, but Curran Walter’s has reposted at least two of this kid’s TikTok’s)

Why does the HTTYD live action teaser look AMAZING but at the same time feels like a game for play station 2?

Still going lowkey crazy with UFF ideas on the Discord so behold a new potential UFF chapter idea:

[abbabelle]

I feel like we as a community don't talk enough about how Izuru basically dies after SDR2. Because yeah him and Hajime "become one" but I feel like most people agree it's just Hajime with more trauma and all the talents.

And if we go with that idea, and the headcanon/au that Servant becomes Izuru's for whatever reason and Servant falls in love with him, and then Izuru functionally dies.

Nagito already lost everyone he's ever loved, and then he wakes up and the man he loved and worshipped is basically died, then obviously he's gonna grieve. How have I never seen anything of Nagito grieving over his dead lover. And if you ship komahina it gets even more complicated because he's grieving over Izuru and falling for Hajime and they share a body and he's hurt and confused-
