    Summary

    Tim Drake is Joker Junior. Or...he was? He's not sure who he's allowed to be anymore.

    Sometimes he has Days where all he can do is hide in his closet and laugh. Sometimes he has Days where he can't talk at all. Sometimes he has Days where he doesn't even remember who or where he is.

    Sometimes he has Days where he's back with the Joker.

    But through all the Days he has, his family is there to help him figure it all out.

    Summary

    Two years ago, the Joker died and Tim Drake crawled his way out from beneath Arkham Asylum where he'd been held prisoner for a year.
    Six months ago, the Court of Owls was flattened, but one Talon was left standing. Dick Grayson is free for the first time in two years.
    Now, the Red Hood stumbles upon an injured little bird living on the streets. A familiar little bird.
    Now, the Batman dies.

    Except Tim Drake knows better. Bruce Wayne is alive.

    Or: Brucequest, featuring a former JJ, a former Talon, and the Red Hood.

    Summary

    “Lemme down!” he says, when he catches sight of her. The lenses of his little mask narrow, his teeth bared. “I ain’t doin’ nothin’ wrong!”

    “Your very presence here is wrong,” Pamela says, softly. Her voice carries on the air, a susurration of the leaves all around them. “Did your handler forget to inform you that this place is mine?”

    Summary

    “Gotham's got a firm grip, don’t she? Seems like everyone who ever gets out always makes their way back eventually."

    “I never wanted to leave,” Jason said. "Traveled the whole world the past few years, all I ever wanted was to be right back here.”

    Jason Todd has spent the bulk of the last seven years imprisoned, insane, dead, or wishing he was. For the first time since he chased Joker into Arkham, his life is standing still. Things are (weirdly) good with Bruce. Roy is amazing. Joker is dead. So, there's no time like the present to upend it all and return to the city that broke him in the first place. Sure, Gotham's an unmapped minefield of his worst triggers, a vicious hellhole with a quick temper and a wicked mean streak, but she's Jason's hellhole. And if he's obscenely, unreasonably lucky, he might come out of it with a home, a family, and a chance to be a hero again.

    That's worth the risk. Right?

    (This works as a direct sequel to You Wouldn't Even Recognize Me Anymore and Can I Help You Not To Hurt Anymore? You'll probably have a better time if you read those first, especially the former, but I won't tell you how to live your life.)
