Fics like Dead Boys Don't Scream

Tim knew, from the moment he stepped into a dead boy's suit, that things wouldn't end well. Except… There's something different about drowning alone. About falling off a cliff into an icy ocean and knowing that no one's going to save you – not because they couldn't make it in time, but because they didn't even notice you were gone. *** OR; A shit ton of Tim Drake whump, dubious blood magic, deadly mermaid-esque water spirits, morally grey Tim, Batfam feels, and as many little head cannons as I could feasibly fit in one fic. NOTE: This is NOT a major character death story… (at least, not a traditional one). Major content warnings are tagged, and additional warnings are included in chapter summaries.
