Summary
Bruce can’t help but be suspicious. Ed is wearing a suit, something obviously high quality but a little oddly cut. Avant garde, maybe, by some obscure designer. He’s missing a tie, but it’s hard to tell if that’s a style choice or if he’d just lost it somewhere along the way. The whole thing is badly wrinkled, as if he’d left in a hurry and hadn’t had time to pack. It speaks well of him.
Or it’s designed to give an impression that speaks well of him.

Summary
In the weeks since his parents' death, his take over as CEO of Drake Industries, and basically a complete upheaval of life as he knows it, Tim Drake has been doing everything he can to gain the approval of his company, the press, and the general public. Easy, right?
Except, apparently, there's something more sinister going on beneath DI's shiny veneer. And now Tim's fighting for his life literally, not just metaphorically. Good thing the Bats are there to protect him. But why are these people so interested in his life? Seriously, don't they have better things to do? So long as Tim makes it out alive and the Bats never find out he knows their secret, everything will be fine. Too bad nothing ever goes right for Tim.OR
Tim Drake is a super badass CEO/detective/genius, but even the most resourceful of 16-year-olds needs some help when a crime lord wants them dead.

Summary
“Call me Ed,” the man says. His handshake is firm and professional, but he's distracted. He barely spares Bruce a glance, turning towards where Tim had trailed Bruce into the room.
“Uncle Eddie?” Tim asks, his voice small, almost disbelieving, and it makes him sound painfully young.
Ed’s answering smile is rueful. “You probably don't remember me, huh? You were pretty small the last time I saw you.”

Summary
Tim's dad is dead, killed by a boomerang to the chest, and Tim is an orphan now. He knows Bruce would adopt him if needed but he couldn't possibly impose himself on the Wayne's more than he already has. It's okay though, because he has a plan for this, he just needs someone to play the role of his estranged "Uncle Eddie".
Except... the guy he hires is weirdly concerned about his well being and Tim can't figure out why.
Meanwhile, Jason Todd is forced to reevaluate his plans for his debut as Red Hood, because, as it turns out, his replacement is a suicidal idiot who can't be trusted to stay out of trouble.
OR
Tim Drake fails to recognize Jason Todd, back from the dead, and hires him to be his Uncle Eddie to avoid getting adopted by Batman. Somehow this ruins everyone's plans.

Summary
[By the time Tim walked into the living room, the entire space had been transformed. Balloons bounced all across the floor, streamers hung from wall to wall in a heavy curtain, twinkling lights glinting softly through the room, which had been darkened by the blackout curtains across the windows. It was dark and cozy, and for the first time in a while, a longing tear wet Tim's eyes.
"There you are! Looking sharp, kid."
Kid. Kid was good.
"Come on, we've got birthday wishes to fulfill."]
OR
Tim spends his first birthday with his uncle.

Summary
Tim is prepared to take the steps necessary to ensure that Bruce will not feel obligated to adopt Tim when a comatose Jack Drake inevitably dies. But what could be better than preventing Bruce from ending up with a son he doesn't want? Bringing back the one he does.
Jason agrees to the Replacement's stupid, stupid plan to invite some strange adult man he's never met to come live with him, if only to keep the idiot alive long enough for him to serve his purpose in the Great Red Hood Revenge Scheme.
Might this new roommate situation have an impact on either of their worldviews? Surely not...

Summary
“Remember Tim,” Dick had said during one of his first training sessions, “if you can’t blind an enemy with your brilliance, baffle them with your bullshit! A confused crook is a hesitant crook. You gotta throw them off their rhythm!”
or
Tim used the Bittenbinder method when Jason attacks him in the Titan's Tower! It's super effective!
