Fics like Self-Destructive Tendencies

In the wake of Bruce’s return from the timestream, Tim Drake struggles to find his place. Despite the sacrifices Tim made and the losses he faced for them, it seems his family has moved on without him. It’s not hard to jump to the conclusion that he is no longer needed or wanted, and Red Robin suddenly is not bothered by the blows he takes and the bones he breaks. It’s Dick Grayson who notices and faces the consequences of what he and the rest of the family has failed to do for Tim Drake. He just hopes it’s not too late to make amends. _______________________ Dick clasps the kid’s forearm before he can move to grab his shoes again and spins Tim back around, “Talk to me. Please.” Tim shakes his arm loose of Dick’s hold, irritation pulling at his brows as he opens his mouth to tell his brother off, but to both of their dismay, Tim can’t seem to push any words out. He clamps his teeth around the beginning of a word, then takes an aborted step back. In a flash, his face morphs into one of anguish. “I think—“ Tim chokes,“I think I’m trying to die.” Admitting it is the catalyst that cracks Tim’s resolve.
