Summary
As much as he enjoyed the freedom of jumping between rooftops and scouring the city for danger while Bruce was away, Dick was in Bludhaven with Damian and Jason was god-knows-where, he should have known better than to stay out while it was bucketing rain and hailing.
Or; Tim gets sick and is all alone in Gotham… or is he?

between your ribs, behind your lungs by unseen_stars

Summary
"Jason imagines himself crawling into the space behind Bruce’s ribs, between his lungs, and curling right around his heart. He imagines how warm it would be, nestled next to his pulse, and wonders if the reason Dick never wore pants is because he, too, wanted to wrap himself in the warmth of their father’s heartbeat and fall asleep there."
Or, Jason Todd has an odd obsession with heartbeats.

Definitely read the tags but I think I rather enjoyed this one! It was a bit more jumpy with its timing than I would usually pick and i HATED the (probably lore accurate) depiction of Supes, but all-in-all it was great angst

Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)
