    Summary

    Tim hates this. He doesn’t want to be alone anymore. He wants his parents–no, right now they’re the last people on the planet he would want to face. He wants Jason.

    He thinks for a moment, desperately, that if he runs he might be able to catch their car before they’ve left the driveway. If he asks, Jason might be willing to help him more. He doesn't want to do this on his own anymore. Then Tim remembers that it’s not just Jason and Dick driving away; it’s Robin and Nightwing. Robin and Nightwing who help people who are hurt or scared or lost or being attacked; not sick, delusional kids who should be able to take care of themselves. Tim is disgusted with himself for even entertaining the thought.

    He’s a big kid. He’s practically a teenager. He’s a Drake, and he will fix this himself.

     

    Tim bakes cookies for the Waynes to show his appreciation for them. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to have accidentally poisoned the cookies, and is incredibly ill. He's afraid to face his mistake, but even more afraid that he's hurt Jason.
    Jason, meanwhile, just doesn't understand why his best friend keeps refusing his help.

    Summary

    Alfred turns to Tim next. “And thank you, Master Timothy.”

    Tim quickly straightens his spine from where he was slouching on the counter. “Me? What?” He can’t imagine why Alfred would possibly be thanking him; he hadn’t actually helped.

    “Thank you for spending time with us,” Alfred responds.

    Tim blushes. “Oh–uh–thank you. I had fun,” he says, and he’s surprised to find that it’s true. For the past hour, he sat here and watched Alfred and Jason cook, and he listened to Jason talk. He didn’t even have to respond to the conversation or lift a finger to help. He just sat here, and for some reason it made Jason and Alfred happy. Tim made Jason and Alfred happy.

    And that thought makes Tim happy.

    5 times Tim helps in the kitchen + 1 time he cooks all by himself.
    OR
    5 times Tim questions his place with the Waynes + 1 time he already knows.

    Summary

    This was for the best.
    Tim knew it with more certainty than he’d ever felt anything in his life.
    He was dangerous.
    He was dangerous, and he needed to be alone. For the safety of others.
    It was for the best.

    Or, Tim Drake is a vampire, and this fact will eventually lead to him getting a family. Not that he knows either of those things, yet.

    Summary

    Jack and Janet abandon Tim in Gotham.

    Because, you know, tiny mute autistic eight-year-olds are TOTALLY adept at taking care of themselves.

    Kind of a stand-alone from Already/Basics stories. Same characters, different what-if scenario.
