    Summary

    The Bats know he is Tim Drake. They have to by now. But he can't deal with their confrontations, the expectations of Alvin Draper and Timothy Drake piled on top of each other. Tim can't do this.

    or
    The Bats have found out Tim is Timothy Drake, not Alvin Draper. They unexpectedly attend a gala, and Tim panics.

     

    This is the second fic in a series. Can be read as a stand-alone, but it will probably make more sense if you read the rest too.

    Summary

    “I’m going to ask you a question and I need you to tell the truth for me. Is that okay?” Nightwing asked softly.

    Tim nodded.

    “Have you heard of Alvin Draper before?”

    Before he could stop himself Tim was taking in a sharp breath that sounded almost pained.

    One of his men must have talked, he supposed that’s what you got when you hire anyone who’s interested, but it still hurt. Maybe he should create proper profiles on all of them once this is done so he can deduce who’s trustworthy and who isn’t.

    “No,” Tim said, although he was aware how obviously it was a lie.

     

    Or: Tim accidentally becomes a crime lord.

    Summary

    Gotham is just a city. She has no mind, no soul, no body with which to reach out for her children. But in a split-second flash of time, she is as real as a mother clutching her child, only long enough to let him go.

    Timothy Drake’s heart stops in the deserts of Iraq, surrounded by the bodies of the only connections to his humanity that he still had. It beats again on the corner of 53rd and Oxford, Gotham City, New Jersey.

    Or, Tim's many emotions as he re-learns what it's like to have a home.

    Summary

    If Bruce wasn't so busy investigating the Red Hood, he might have realised that, while Jack Drake is in a coma and Tim is grounded from patrol, Drake Industries goes broke. Overnight, the Drakes lose everything, leaving Tim without a cent to his name.

    Jason, meanwhile, cannot believe that the Bats haven't noticed yet that something is obviously wrong with the Replacement.

    *

    It’s weird, being poor. At the moment, Tim has precisely eleven dollars to his name. Drake Industries, gone. Their assets, gone. His trust fund, being used to pay for his father’s hospital bills. The house is gone, too. That's okay. Tim is okay. Sometimes, though, he lies awake at night, and he can’t help but wonder. Does Bruce know? He definitely doesn’t, obviously. But, does he?
