Summary
Dick looks terribly sad when he looks at Tim. Jason looks at Tim with anger and hatred. Things around Wayne Manor are tense and unstable. Tim figures, so long as he's around, neither Dick nor Jason will ever be happy, which means that Bruce will never be happy.
There's one way to fix that: run away from home, sending himself into Rejection and break the family bond he has with Bruce, thereby destroying his ability to form either family and romantic bonds, and making it so his scent is so nauseating to Bruce that Bruce won't try to keep Tim around out of a misguided sense of right and wrong.
Clearly this is the right choice for Tim to make.
Except that Jason disagrees when he finds out, and kidnaps Tim so he and Dick can take care of their little brother.
(Alternatively: I make up new A/B/O mechanics as an excuse for Batboy angst and comfort.)

Summary
“Sorry to bother you,” Tim began, “I was just wondering if you had a bandage I could use to wrap my cut?”
The butler seemed to notice the excessive amount of blood soaked through his pant leg. “Oh, my. I think it would be better if I could have a look at it. That seems quite serious.”
“Really, it’s no problem. I just need a bandage,” Tim insisted.
“Nonsense,” the butler chided. “Come inside and have a seat, I’ll get you something to drink while we take care of that cut.”
or,
Tim Drake was sold to a child assassin organization by his parents. When he gets the assignment to kill Bruce Wayne, he relies on the billionaire's tendency to adopt stray children in order to form a plan.
Unfortunately, every murder attempt fails due to Bruce Wayne’s fatherly persona.

Summary
"Hey, brat! Don't even think about touching that!"
Rex doesn't resonate with the Aegis, and that made all the difference for someone else. AU, set in the main game.
