    Summary

    Once upon a time, he might’ve liked to have everything done and systematic. He wanted to be good for Batman at the start, then prove himself worthy of the name ‘Robin’ in the best way he could. He hated getting bored and loved a cold case to solve or people to analyse in order to understand them better.

    Now, it was a need. He needed things done. He had to take care of something far greater than himself or his boredom. It wasn’t fun anymore. Well, it never really was fun, but either something close to that or something he could pretend was fun; it wasn’t something to relax to, something to calm his mind or occupy him. It was an ‘I have to’.

    He could get out of this, but...he didn’t want to. He wanted his best friend to kidnap him and take him far away from this city and his responsibilities.

    Kon smiled brightly. Tim’s lips quirked up, too, involuntarily.

    “Pack up, Boy Wonder! We're leaving! Right. Now.”

    Summary

    “Oh, come on. That’s like saying Batman could beat him with Kryptonite. It doesn’t count.”

    “Please explain to me why that doesn’t count.”

    “It’s a handicap! We’re talking no mojo, no green rocks, just Batman as a human and Superman with his genetic super powers.”

    “Super powers aren’t his baseline. Or yours, for that matter.”

    “What? Yes, they are.”

    “Krypton’s red sun would beg to differ.” Superboy groans, nearly drowning out his words. “He doesn't have powers on his home planet, it absolutely counts! Wonder Woman, on the other hand, is magic.”

    “Oh my God. You’re so annoying.”

    ***

    Or, after Superman's death and return, Tim is tasked with keeping an eye on Superboy. They proceed to fall in love.

    Summary

    He takes a long, slow breath. Ignores the glares from the other students. “Superboy,” he murmurs. “It’s me. If you’re listening, I could use some help.”

    Or: 5 times Superboy saves Tim Drake, and one time Tim Drake saves Superboy.

    Summary

    “Oh please, I am not delusional!” Bernard lifted up his phone and continued on before Tim could interject, “Conner, I know we just met and you’re probably straighter than God’s arrow or whatever they say in Kentucky-”

    “Kansas,” Conner corrected.

    “Whatever.” Bernard clicked his tongue as he scrolled through his phone. “The point is even a straight guy like you has to admit that Robin is pretty cute, right?”
