The Robins' Nest by its_your_mind

Summary
The Justice League did technically name their central computer room after all the Robins. And Tim does still have work he needs to do to finish integrating Red Tornado into the Watchtower's systems. And Tim does have a team uniquely-suited to keeping watch during friendly infiltration missions. And Diana did say that the name of The Robin's Nest would be permanent, no matter what, as long as Tim signed off on it. Which he had.
(Was Diana thinking about the potential risk to Justice League property when she made that reassurance? Probably not. But then again, she shouldn't've made that promise without doing her research. If she had, she would have discovered Tim's chaotic streak and rules-lawyering nature. So, either she had done her research and they had her full support, or else she hadn't and the Justice League was going to learn a very valuable lesson about the importance of proper research and binding contracts. A no-lose scenario for the Robins of the world.)

Summary
Tim Drake wasn’t Robin anymore, but he was starting to get a sense of the person he was when Robin was removed from the equation.
Jason Todd had his bird, his family, and his city, and he wasn’t going to let anyone or anything take them from him.
Bruce Wayne was gone. Not dead, but hopelessly lost and losing more of himself the longer he was away.
Gotham City loved her protectors and held them tight, but there was only so much she could do when their drive to protect her took them out of her reach.

Summary
Once he knew where to find the shiny new birdy if he wanted, Jason figured he could leave his replacement alone. He had bigger birds to fry right now (flightless arctic ones, in specific). But the last few times Jason had caught sight of Batman and Robin out on patrol, the cuckoo bird had seemed… off. Subdued, less likely to poke fun at the baddies, and almost silent when it was just him and Bruce alone.
Jason had decided to swing by the Drakes’ neighborhood in Old Gotham to see if he could get an idea of what was up—not because he was worried about the Walmart-brand Robin, alright? He was just… assessing the enemy. Gathering intel.

Summary
Theoretically, if you lined them all up next to each other, there’s probably a long list of heroes and their mentees who Red Robin’s done a solid over the years. But, like… he’s honestly Just A Guy? Just a guy, doin’ his best.
Right now, he’s a guy doing his best to help create a first-of-its-kind computer system, one powerful enough to support the computing power of an android mind and do everything the Batcave and the Clocktower can do, but on a global scale instead of a Gotham one, for the Justice League instead of the Bats and Birds.
Tim’s busy right now, is the point. There is approximately no portion of his brain currently dedicated to considering who in the JL might have reason to view him in a favorable light. Quite the contrary, actually. He’s been known to be a bit abrasive, and he knows he has a reputation for being a conniving little shit.
So he’s not surprised or annoyed when someone comes to pull him out of his work – he also wouldn’t trust him to be this deep in the programming of something this important. Mostly he’s just surprised it took them so long to send someone to get him out.

Summary
The Justice League's new Watchtower has a central information center. They named it The Robin's Nest.
This is their reasoning, and also the unforeseen consequences of naming a room in a satellite after a legacy title given to children with a history of shirking authority to great success.

Summary
“Well, that was fun,” Tim said, his hands shoved into his pockets. “It was a nice plan, but you know us. We can just drive back to San Francisco and I’ll get a flight.”
Kon looked at his posture, the quintessentially Tim tilt of his head. “No, dude, are you kidding me? You’re gonna deny me this rite of passage? Get back in the car. It’s gonna be epic.”
Tim had smiled, a big bright thing that lasted all the way until they got back on the highway and Kon tried to fight him for the aux cord because like hell was he going to listen to the same Marina and the Diamonds EP for 57 hours.

tim and kon go on an epic cross-country road trip and have some realizations!
