Summary
"Odysseus was clever, but his vanity and ego would have killed him long before his return home if not for his wife.”
“Penelope?” Tim asked.
“Exactly, child, Penelope," his nanny smiled. "The men of Ancient Greece would have you believe that she was idle, waiting for her husband to come home and solve her problems, but this is far from the truth. For routine and ritual are not powerless things. In pouring her love for her son and husband into her weaving, she called out to the goddesses Hestia and Hera. Despite never lifting a finger in violence herself, Penelope saved her family.”

Tim finds that there are more ways to protect the Bats than just Robin. A little magic never hurt anyone, after all. -

An abandoned LexCorp facility. A corrupted server dump. An autopsy report listing a young adult male with a rotated premolar, a removed spleen, and a lifetime of Gotham-inflicted scars.
The report lists the subject as terminated.
The only problem is that Tim Drake is the one reading it.Bookmarked by TealWren

Summary
Tim Drake has always been something other in every situation. He accepts that with the grace he was raised to portray. He knows what he means to the people around him and he expects it when Dick brushes past taking Robin away and making him a Justice League fugitive. He expects it when Bruce doesn't do more than nod after the year from hell. He even expects it when he returns from four years of nightmares with Ra's, victorious, but clearly not missed by the people who could have saved him. He expects it, but that doesn't make it hurt less.
Or
Ra's takes the battle with Tim a step further in new horrifying ways. Tim wins, but going home doesn't feel like a reward anymore.
