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.

The following is a transcript of Patrol Communications Audio written by state of the art transcription technology, IRIS (Interpretation of Recorded Intelligence Software). IRIS was created to provide easily searchable records, automatically, and eliminate the need to transcribe each patrol audio log manually. That being said, IRIS is still experimental, and may not always be entirely accurate.

(01:25) Red Hood: (Mild static) (Out of breath, slurred) You motherfuckers. Put some fuckin-Batman: (Shaking) Red Hood-
Red Hood: Shut up. Put some fucking respect. On my name. Start fucking copying me. I just got thrown fucking. Um. 40 feet. Into a fucking uh. What's it. Ditch. I'm still fucking conscious.
Batman: Red Hood, do not move, we're en route-
Red Hood: What'll I win if I stand up.
Batman: (Loud) Do not stand up.

Summary
It’s been three months since Bruce accepted Tim as Robin, and every night Bruce still patrols alone while Tim microwaves frozen lasagna and finishes his algebra II homework. But Tim is tired of waiting to be ready, and takes up the totally safe, totally sane hobby of midnight streetfighting.
The new vigilante in Gotham takes notice.
Title taken from “To an Athlete Dying Young” by A.E. Housman.

Summary
"At least, back then, Tim had barely been a teenager. He could almost forgive his own volatility. And he’d been smart enough (scared enough?) not to tell Jack that he didn’t need him.
What was his excuse now? Bruce was his dad (at least, in the legal sense), but (surprise, surprise) it turned out that Tim wasn’t any better at being a son."
Or Tim and Bruce still have some things to sort through after the adoption.

Summary
It doesn’t matter whether Bruce would cut him loose or not, Tim can’t let things ever get to that point. He has to be better. He has to be the best he can be, or Bruce will lose himself again. Tim can’t let Dick down like that. Tim can’t let Jason down like that.
Tim can’t let Bruce down like that.
(Or, Tim's Robin-career is full of angst and I enjoy it)
