Summary
“How’d you cry so easily?” Duke asks, still entirely too awkward because no matter what Steph says, Duke still thinks Tim is kinda cool in a weird way. A really weird way.
“Oh, I classically conditioned myself over winter break when I was eleven. All I have to do to tear up is pinch a certain point on my arm. See?” Tim viciously pinches a spot on his inner forearm. Immediately tears start to well in his eyes.
Or: Duke Thomas dealing with Tim Pod-Baby Drake and what exactly that entails.

Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
After dying on the battlefield, Damian wakes up in a universe where he is Bruce Wayne's only child. Having to endure the League's training a second time is a challenge, but upon reaching Gotham, Damian is thrilled. His so-called "siblings" had really been more trouble than they'd been worth, and Damian had always been the true son anyways. Now he doesn't have to fight for the position that is rightfully his.
Except… the Manor is awfully quiet. And Damian has started talking to himself. And… maybe his siblings weren't completely useless. They gave him Robin, after all, something that Damian hadn't been able to deny himself when he'd rejoined Batman in Gotham's shadows.
And then Damian meets this world's Timothy Drake, who's years younger than Damian and stuck with neglectful parents who don't even know their son's age, much less that he's following Batman and Robin around Gotham with a camera.
Damian had been a horrible younger brother, but… maybe he can be an adequate older brother.
(It isn't easy, but he turns out to be far better than adequate.)

Summary
Having ended their civil war with a bang and a very belated peace treaty in their own universe, Optimus and Megatron find themselves in the TF:One timeline, before everything went wrong. Not wishing the same war on their young counterparts, they try their best to steer them towards a better path, before it's too late. It doesn't exactly go well. There might be a body count.
World building heavy story where D-16 gets a mentor figure, writes a poem, chases after Orion to save him from himself (and from the Plot), has the worst month of his life and uncovers some of the Horrors hidden in Cybertron's history, not necessarily in that order.
[I was just wondering… do you think there is a world out there where we don’t hurt each other? Even when we don’t mean to?]
[We have ever honed and shaped ourselves along the sharpest edges of each other. It took us eight million years to wear those edges down into something that fit along the seams. It is how we are. If there is a world where that doesn’t hurt, I can’t imagine it.]Series

Summary
She can still turn back, she knows. She’s gotten Bumblebee where he needs to go, he’s as safe as he’s going to be, and he doesn’t need her anymore. She can go back to her family, back to Memo. Finish building the Camaro.
Bumblebee makes a strange, high-pitched sound she’s never heard before, and she looks at him to see he appears to be scanning something, out in the direction of the bridge. Then, he collapses down, into an absolutely gorgeous bright yellow Camaro.
She gapes at him. “Are you telling me you could’ve been a Camaro this whole time?”
He beeps at her, and the driver’s side door swings open, a clear invitation.
She gets in.

Summary
In this Autobot-Decepticon war, you've lost count on how many times you've failed to save your friends; the many times you've died. Loop after loop, you slowly forget to fear death, to feel the hollowness of grief, to truly live, but not love. You never forget to love. Maybe that's what got you damned in the first place.
As if to damn you further, the circumstances of your most recent death dragged the Decepticons' best soldier with you in this time loop.
It doesn't matter what he does; you can always try again.
(Or, Soundwave severely underestimated human willpower.)

Summary
It's not every night on Coruscant that a clueless Mandalorian and a baby Yoda from 30 years in the future crash in a Senator's hangar. Luckily, the Mandalorian and baby Yoda in question are good at adapting, and Senator Bail Organa has close ties with the Jedi.
From there, the pair make their way through a pre-Imperial galaxy, causing a political incident or two along the way. Now, the question is: Are they here to save the galaxy, or are they to be feared?
Just wait until the Darksaber gets involved.
OR: Din Djarin himbos his way through the Clone Wars with Grogu at his side. From one end of the galaxy to the other, they make many a friend and foe. It's actually all just one elaborate history lesson.

Summary
The first time Cassandra speaks to Batman, it's in the language David Cain taught her. The way bodies speak is simple. Cassandra watches Bruce Wayne go, and thinks that people are not.
She goes back to Barbara. "I want," she says, and stops. She doesn't know the words for what she wants.
There's a story Cassandra heard once, about a boy made out of wood. He wanted something like this, too.
-
there are a lot of steps in between being a weapon and being a person.
Cassandra Cain becomes Batgirl. Batgirl becomes Cass Wayne. Cass isn't sure what it means, to be a person, and Batman isn't very good at teaching that. luckily Bruce has a protege or five to help her figure it out. -

Summary
When Rinzler chases after Sam and Quorra from the lightcycle arena, his second baton isn't another lightcycle, it's a jet, and he's able to pursue Sam into the Outlands. The chase doesn't end well for anyone, and Sam and Rinzler find themselves swept out to the edge of the system. They must form an uneasy alliance to get back to the city, and neither of them are happy about it.
