Summary
If anyone asked the Batfamily which Robin had the funniest ’joining the family’ story? Well, everyone would start with, “Well it seemed like Jason had the spot taken for good after having the audacity to try and jack the Batmobile’s tires and hit Bruce with his tire iron.” And then they’d say, “But then tiny Tim decided to try and steal the whole thing.”
Or: When Tim is 11 he figures it’s not hurting anyone if he. Ya know. Takes a picture in the Batmobile. But then the power goes to his head and all of a sudden he’s hacking the Batmobile and tearing through Gotham on a rescue mission.

Summary
“Batman? Nightwing?”
“Oracle. Report.” Batman said.
“It’s not looking good,” she said. “Robin had a ton of sightings skirting around the edges of Crime Alley- Not going into Hood’s territory, but deliberately getting close,” she said.
Dick’s heart froze. No, he begged the universe, anyone else. Anyone but him.
“It… looks like the trajectory of Robin’s last sighting intersects with the trajectory of the Red Hood.”
Or,
The Red hood kidnaps Robin and holds him in his apartment for six days and they drive each other nuts.

Summary
When he ends up ditched in Atlanta after a fight with his dad, Tim decides to do the only sensible thing: Tell no one and make the 800 mile journey back to Gotham on his own.
Because the "call Batman when you're in trouble" rule only applies when he's Robin, right?

Rum by Sohotthateveryonedied

Summary
Bruce’s first instinct is to check for open wounds. Then he makes sure that Tim is breathing and that he was not correct in his mistaking Tim for a corpse. He seems fine, relatively speaking. The bowl of ice cream and expensive bottle of rum on the countertop evoke many questions.
Bruce shakes Tim’s shoulder. “Tim?” Tim makes a sound that is not quite a word, so much as several vowels carelessly strung together. “Son? Are you alive?”
Tim groans, not lifting his head. “No.”
Bruce eyes the bottle of rum. It’s several ounces short. “Either my calendar is a day off, or yours is.”

Summary
There’s a small half-moon of blood under the white of Tim’s nail where he bent it. He studies the red of it, feeling foggy and dreamlike. “Can I ask you a question?”
His brother’s eyes flick to him and away again, surprised and wary. “What?”
His nail doesn’t hurt much, just the dullest of aches when he presses down against it. “When you were homeless, you slept with people for money, didn’t you?”
Jason jerks like he’s been slapped. His knuckles are so pale where they grip the steering wheel they suddenly look more bone than flesh. “Did I -”
“Was it worth it?” Tim asks, drifting like a cloud over whatever furious reaction Jason was about to give him. “The money, I mean.”
His sternum slams into the seatbelt with bruising force. Unbraced for it, his head whips forward and back against his seat as they swerve off the road again and skid to a halt with a screech of rubber.

Summary
Tim is prepared to take the steps necessary to ensure that Bruce will not feel obligated to adopt Tim when a comatose Jack Drake inevitably dies. But what could be better than preventing Bruce from ending up with a son he doesn't want? Bringing back the one he does.
Jason agrees to the Replacement's stupid, stupid plan to invite some strange adult man he's never met to come live with him, if only to keep the idiot alive long enough for him to serve his purpose in the Great Red Hood Revenge Scheme.
Might this new roommate situation have an impact on either of their worldviews? Surely not...

Summary
Anica hesitated, reaching out to brace his shoulder.
“Maybe you should go home.”
“Wha?” Sanji asked. The room was dim and his head was heavy.
Anica leaned forward and said, quietly but urgently,
“Go. Home.”
.....Sanji winds up being sold to the highest bidder for a fraction of his bounty. He really shouldn't be offended by that but he definitely is.
Featuring! Protective straw hats! Hurt Sanji! Good karma! And drug induced metaphors!

A podfic of "if you take your time" by Slumber.
Hirotaka had asked if it was fine to book just a single room, and Narumi said yes without a second thought. It wouldn’t be the first night they’d have spent together, after all, but in Hirotaka’s apartment Narumi often took the bed, Hirotaka pulling out a futon next to her.
But it was springtime in Hakone during Golden Week.
A long holiday in the mountains in a place that was a popular getaway for couples.
In which Narumi accidentally ends up in a couple's trip with Hirotaka.
