Summary
The revelation of Loki's origins, as a child of Laufey, the King of the Jotunns, shifted Loki's identity and made him question his place in Asgard. He had never truly felt like he belonged to Odin's throne, and his father had never seen him as a true heir. Loki's anger and frustration grew, and he left Odin's chambers in confusion. He wanted answers and to figure out who he truly was.
Loki's transformation was shocking, as he quietly and swiftly took control of Asgard. Frigga, a compassionate figure, told him that it was time for him to take the crown. The council was unsettled, as Loki had never been considered a true heir and had little connection to Asgard's noble bloodlines. Instead, Loki focused on reform, reshaping Asgard away from Odin's militaristic rule. Art, magic, and diplomacy flourished under his reign, and the lower classes found their voices. Loki's transformation was a turning point in the story of Asgard and the world.

Summary
Gotham loses its Robin and Bruce Wayne loses a son. Tim finds one of these too tragic to bear. In his quest to make sure Bruce Wayne lives to see the next year, he strikes upon the perfect solution: another son.
*
His best bet is, naturally, Crime Alley.
By 8 pm that day, Drake Manor is filled with ten black-haired, blue-eyed boys sitting around the large dining table, looking around the room suspiciously.
Well. Eleven. But Tim doesn’t think he counts.

Summary
Parenting is Bruce's thing, and Jason isn't planning on messing with that. But when Bruce fails to spot the countless red flags about Tim's home life, it falls to Jason to step up. Of course it does. Because he's literally the only one in his family who knows how to be responsible, and if Dick disagrees, he can suck it.

Summary
Instead of threatening her infant son with the boogeyman, Janet Drake tells Tim that Batman is going to come for him if he doesn't behave. Years later, Tim realises that if he wants a fast way to get adopted, all he has to do is commit a crime so that Batman will take him away.
Years later still, Tim knows that no one is coming for him, but that doesn't make him any less scared. It also doesn't make him any less interested in Batman and his Robins.
