    Summary

    Stray jumped from the building and landed in a roll the way Catwoman had taught him before bounding back up to his feet and running. He heard Robin cursing behind him and let out a laugh, loud on purpose.
    “Give it back, Stray!” Robin shouted as he chased Stray over the rooftops.
    “Finder’s keepers!” Stray called over his shoulder, still laughing.
    “Pickpocketing is not finder’s keepers!” Robin argued.
    Stray jumped up on top of an AC unit and twisted to face Robin, holding his hands up. Robin stopped unexpectedly, his balance teetering for a second before he looked up at Stray, scowling. Stray raised his prize, something he’d nicked from Robin’s pocket without really looking at it first. He’d just taken it to annoy the other boy, wanting his attention more than anything. He squinted, staring at it. “Oh my god,” Stray said laughing as he flipped open the first page of the book. “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.” Tim stared, dumbfounded as he giggled a little. “What is this?”

    Summary

    As Tim goes to pick up his coffee mug, his eyes meet Jason’s. There’s a soft, warm thing in them that’s sweeter than the sugary mocha he was about to sip, and his heart does a little flip as he thinks about how absolutely perfect things are-
    And then the window behind him slams open.
    -
    Or, Tim and Jason are having a perfectly normal morning until Dick asks what's going on between them.

    Summary

    Jason takes a deep, pained breath. “...I want it back, Red.”

    “I want a chance at us back,” He clarifies quietly, before adding, “I’m sorry.”

    Tim’s mouth goes dry. He can hear his heartbeat.

    “I’ve been moving on.” He croaks.

    Jason’s green eyes pierce into him. “Please don’t.”

    It’s so unfair.

    “When you…” Tim tries. He lets context fill what he can’t say, gesturing to the scar on his chest before continuing, “It was all I had left that I hadn’t committed to Robin, the only thing I was holding onto that was silly and frivolous.”

    Tim’s spiraling, repeating the phrases that fed his empty soul sparingly in his darkest moments, “It only weakened me. Now I’m focused on being the perfect soldier you always hated the idea of. I’ve been more focused with a higher rate of achievement and—”

    Jason’s in his space, pushing up against him in seconds. The end of his tail smacks into Tim’s, prompting the latter to shiver out of his mental descent.

    “You’ll never be a perfect soldier.” Jason hisses, “I won’t let you.”

    AKA: A new criminal turns Tim into a mermaid and Jason comes to the rescue (after years of rejection and skinning Tim's soulmark off)

    Summary

    "I don't understand." Tim shook his head. "I stole from you. I'm a thief. And you're being - nice."

    "Tim," Dick leaned against the doorframe, balancing his bounty of snacks, "I've seen a lot of thieves in Gotham. You are not one of them. Besides, you're kind of like our neighbor. Considering this us being neighborly. Now," he shifted some of the junk food before there was a small avalanche, "come help me carry this and maybe we can get out there before Jason turns this whole floor into a fort."

    OR,

    The boys find an intruder in Wayne Manor in the middle of the night and take it upon themselves to confront the "criminal". Of course that would end in a sleepover.

    Summary

    "So, here's how it's gonna go. You're gonna pay for two tickets so I can take you all the way home and tucked in like good rich kids should be. Then you're gonna give me the money for a ticket back here, and maybe some more for a sandwich as payment for this good deed."

    "Don't people usually do a good deed, like, because it's good? Not for a reward."

    "Most people got sandwiches. Most people don't wander around Gotham in the middle of the damn night."

     

    OR

     

    When a young Tim gets lost late at night in Gotham, an older boy finds him, saves his life - twice - and takes him home. And then just...doesn't leave.
