    Summary

    Last weekend’s Wayne Foundation Gala was supposed to be all about charity and high society — but instead, cameras caught Timothy Drake-Wayne in the middle of a passionate, scandalous kiss… and not just with long-time boyfriend Bernard Dowd.

    The shocking photos show Drake-Wayne lip-locked with another mystery man, who bears a suspicious resemblance to none other than Metropolis’ very own SUPERBOY. Yes, you read that right. Superboy. The Teen of Steel. At the Wayne Gala. Making out with a Wayne.

    Is this the beginning of Gotham’s most dramatic love triangle? Has Drake-Wayne moved on from his loyal boyfriend? Is this Gotham’s first taste of a celebrity-superhero couple? Or perhaps throuple?

    Sources close to the family and representative for Wayne Enterprises declined to comment, but public speculation has already exploded across social media. Is Gotham’s most private Wayne heir rewriting the rules of high-society romance? One thing’s for sure: Gotham high society hasn’t been this juicy in years.

    OR:

    Bernard decides he's had enough of Tim and Kon dancing around each other and decides to take matters into his own hands. Tim and Kon were not informed of this.

    Summary

    Bernard sighed, setting the phone down and folding his arms. “Okay. Just spit it out.”

    Tim sat first, placing the plate on the table with care. “Please don’t freak out—” he began.

    “TimisRedRobinandI’mSuperboyandwedidn’tknowhowtotellyouandwe’rereallysorryforlyingforsolongpleasedon’tbreakupwithus—” Kon blurted, voice cracking somewhere in the middle of the confession.

    Tim slapped a hand over Kon’s mouth, glaring at him.

    Kon blinked, muffled.

    They both turned to look at Bernard.

    Bernard raised an eyebrow. Slowly. Unimpressed.

    The silence stretched.

    Kon fidgeted. Tim shifted. Neither of them spoke.

    Bernard exhaled like the weight of the world had just settled on his shoulders. “So you’re telling me... that both of you are vigilantes-slash-heroes... and you’ve only just now decided to tell me?”

    Tim opened his mouth.

    Bernard held up a finger. “Nope. No. No speaking. I’m not done.”

    Tim’s mouth closed.

    Waking up chained to a chair with people in cloaks is never a good sign. The symbols glowing Lazarus green? Even better.

    Summary

    His turning was accidental, but of course it was. He was just the fiancé of someone important, a nobody in the grand scheme of things. But that didn't change what had happened to him. He didn't even know if Tim or any of the Bats were still alive or like him. He didn't want to be a monster but how long could he hold out? he couldn't go to Tim if he was alive, he'd hurt him or Tim would see what he had become. But he was so hungry.

    Summary

    Nightwing catapulted into the frame, swinging down from somewhere off camera with impressive speed, moving so fast he was barely a blur of black and blue. He was on a trajectory towards the door Red Robin had sprinted through.

    He was too slow.

    Fire exploded out of the windows, sending shattered glass raining down on the shaken workers, the final few of which had been blown away from the building by the force of the explosion. The factory seemed to pause, taking a deep breath in.

    And then the building came crashing down.

    Tim was still inside.  

    OR:

    Tim runs into a collapsing building on live TV, Bernard deals with the aftermath.

    Summary

    "Okay, so I'm just gonna—" Bernard awkwardly hopped up onto the couch and carefully climbed on top of Kon, placing one knee either side of the other's chest so he was leaning over him in a good position to do his makeup. "—hop on right here, that okay?"

    Kon was frozen, his eyes staring up at Bernard blankly for a few moments as his brain malfunctioned. His cheeks flushed bright red, as they so often did around Bernard and Tim.

    "I, uh. Um." He stuttered out, he blinked and then asked, "What?"

    Bernard grinned, his lips tilting crookedly, "I asked if this was okay? It's easier to do your makeup like this."

    "Oh." Kon muttered, his eyes flickered to where Steph was doing Duke's makeup perfectly fine by standing next to him. "Yeah. Yeah this is great. I mean—yeah, fine."

    OR:

    In which the gang prepare for Gotham Pride. Bernard flirts, Kon is panicking, and Tim is having many realisations about himself.

    Summary

    “You guys are just salty that you lost. Wait until Tim gets back, he’ll agree with me.” Impulse insisted.

    Wonder Girl gave him an incredulous look, “No he won't. It’s Mario Kart and he’s Tim, you know he’ll definitely agree with me and Kon. Especially because you used your superspeed to cheat!”

    Bernard noticed that all their controllers matched their superhero theme. (Oh my God, they’re nerds).

    Impulse stomped his foot. Actually stomped it, like a toddler.

    Bernard decided he should probably make his presence known before their argument descended into a full out super-powered fight and wrecked Tim’s apartment.

    OR:

    In the aftermath of discovering Tim is Red Robin, Bernard accidentally meets Tim's friends.

    Summary

    "Bernard drops his beer on the ground and watches it shatter with apathy. He feels like he’s floating above his body, viewing detachedly as his brain tries to catch up with what’s happening. It takes a moment, but he gets there eventually.

    Shit.

    Fucking… shit.

    Tim."

    -

    Tim gets shot as Red Robin, this is the aftermath. (based on Batman #125)
