Summary
Therapy isn't working out for Tim (possibly because he has like, way too many issues), so Dinah suggests he try music therapy instead. This turns out to be such a good idea he drafts it to his team and suddenly he's moonlighting as a rock singer in a band that's rising in popularity. Maintaining a new "secret" identity is easy enough, and he's having a lot of fun!
Unfortunately for Tim, it seems he's a bit TOO good at the secret identity thing, because his family doesn't seem to realize that it's him.
Ugh, this is just proving his point.

Summary
Jason is having a hell of a time trying to find his Replacement. Sure, he’s got a name from Talia: Timothy Drake. And he’s looked up the kid’s school records: perfect everything. Perfect grades. Perfect attendance. His school photo shows perfectly slicked-back hair and not one wrinkle on his Gotham Academy jacket. Wow, Bruce really won the lottery with his newest child soldier.
Infuriating.
Jason tries to do a little hate-stalking, but that’s where things go a bit weird. Timothy Drake has his own fuckin’ mansion right next to Bruce’s, but when he swings by Drake Manor, it’s oddly empty and devoid of life. Weird. Jason tracks down a penthouse in the Diamond District, but it seems to be falsified records because there’s a whole different rich guy living there.
What the fuck. Where does the Replacement go when he’s not Robin?
---------
Jason is having a hard time finding Tim Drake, but he's been running into a kid by the name of Alvin Draper in the Alley.
In the meantime, Tim Drake totally has 5-step plan to get Jason and Bruce to reconcile! Nothing will go wrong. :P

Summary
Onscreen, the reporter does the typical introduction spiel, then turns to the party crasher. “You and your associates have been remarkably candid about who you are while you’ve crashed galas all over the tri-state area tonight, but would you introduce yourselves one more time, this time for the record?”
The party crasher grins, bright and mischievous, but there’s a glint in his eyes that makes some part of Bruce think predator. “Sure thing! I’m Jason Todd-Wayne, and me and the others are Bruce Wayne’s gaggle of bastard children.”
Bruce chokes.

Thanks to a magician landing a lucky shot, all memory of the Batkids gets erased from the world.
They decide to make it absolutely everyone’s problem.

Tim with no self-preservation (per usual); fascinating case-fic worldbuilding; bonus appearance by the BatGoose! Plus excellent translation of Bruce's Bat-noises.

Lyrically written AU (Tim Drake joins the Batfam late), with a nuanced take on Janet Drake that I particularly appreciate.
