Fic rec: Permutations by angel_gidget (@angel-gidget)

https://archiveofourown.org/works/11554938

Summary:

There are five Batmans in the room and one Robin. It sounds like the start of a horrible joke, but Tim isn’t finding anything funny about it.

Continuity: Post-Crisis, Convergence Era: Modern Age (1985–now) Comic/Comic arc: Convergence (2015) Main Characters: Tim Drake Main Relationships: Tim Drake & Dick Grayson Comment: Excellent, gripping, heartbreaking fic that plays with the Convergence event. Tim accidentally tags along with his Batman when they're brought to fight for the sake of their universe, and meets a few familiar faces... Submitted by anon.

Multiversal Batman deathmatch, but a Robin has accidentally been dragged along. Gidge has honed this fic to perfection. No extraneous details. Every scene lovingly crafted to slice so sharply you don't even feel the pain at first. The CHOICE OF BATMEN!!!

Summary:

My own take on the fallout of the DCU Rebirth. Tim and Cassie are left with two sets of memories—and even more feelings—to reconcile.

I'm gonna be real -- I'm always a sucker for a good "exploring the consequences of universal reboots" fic, and this one does a super good job of exploring what that means for Cassie and Tim when the N52 reboot rewrote their personalities and personal histories so thoroughly they're almost unrecognizable

Submitter's comment:

Tam and Tim's relationship is complex. Whenever Gidge is NOT writing them I am convinced that dating is a bad idea. When Gidge IS writing them, I am convinced that it is canon and natural. Tam's thoughts are perfect here and make the canon character even better.

Summary:

Cass didn't save Tim. Pru did. But not so punctually. A drugged-up Tim is left to contemplate his overall exposure to physical contact in the last several months while a furiously terrified Tam Fox attempts to care for him. Tim/Tam. Mention of Tim/others.

Submitted by @kiragecko

Submitter's comments:

The contrast between Tim and Tam's perspectives here blows me away! Tam is trying desperately to help Tim, and Tim is both repressing AND too drugged for proper processing. It's a fascinating and powerful place to explore. (Forgive me if this is nonsensical. I've had a migraine for 2 weeks and can't think.)
