    Summary

    Tim Drake was a fixture in the Gotham gala scene, his parents had made sure of that.

    The Gotham gala scene had seen Tim grow up, probably more than his parents ever did if he was being honest.

    They saw him take his first steps,

    Mumble his first words,

    Grow taller,

    And go through his awkward phases.

    They were also there when Tim went through his different phases of interests, the dinosaur one, space, and the one for riddles.

    Timothy Drake was a bright boy who seemed to light up when the smallest bit of attention was shined on him.

    At the galas Tim had met many people.

    ___

    This is the story of how Tim's interactions with people at galas over the years and how one of these people finally noticed him in return.

    Summary

    There’s words, conversations happening around him. They come to him in a disjointed mess, without context – drunk, hospital, shock, emergency contact. Tim tries to take stock of what he knows. There are police. An ambulance. Paramedics. There’s a blanket around his shoulders. It’s a shock blanket. He is… in shock? His left arm aches.

    Summary

    Dick Grayson hugs the way most people breathe: easy and natural, like it's a necessary part of living.

    Tim's wrapped up in one now, his brother's arms all the way around his shoulders, tugging him in close.

    He's never told Dick that the first hug he can remember is that day at the circus, from a stranger who would in time be family. He's never told Dick that the next hug he remembers after that is nine years later, caught up in those same strong arms. He thinks he'd rather die than admit it.

    "You're not hurt?" Dick is saying. "Nothing cruel and unusual, right?"

    "She only let me have one cup of coffee a day," says Tim, very dry, and Dick makes a strange sort of a sound, almost a laugh, and tightens his hold so much it sweeps Tim right off his feet.

    Summary

    Dick Grayson didn’t mean to avoid Tim Drake.

    Dick was fairly confident the boy would make a decent Robin. But beyond that Dick didn’t have any strong opinions, and he was happy to leave it that way. He refused to form an opinion, to become attached. It was easier that way. Dick didn’t want to take the time to examine the dread he felt seeing Tim in his colors, standing in the same spot another black haired, blue eyed boy used to be. He wasn’t looking for a new brother. That’s what he told himself when eight months had passed and he had only met the boy a handful of times. 

    Dick stopped telling himself that when he learned that Tim had died due to the Joker. 

    Or: In Tim's early Robin days, Dick realizes he needs to step up and mentor the boy who now holds his mantle. Tim is going to be part of the family, no matter what Bruce has to say.
