DickJayTim

DickJayTim is the family ship between Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Tim Drake from the DC Comics fandom.

Canon
Dick, Jason and Tim were all adopted by Bruce Wayne and have served as Robin the Boy Wonder. Giving them the bond between brothers through their adoption and the title that came with the uniform they once wore on separate occasions. Before they each decided to leave that title behind to become Nightwing, Red Hood and Red Robin.

Dick was the one to create Robin and after he left to become Nightwing, Jason was given his former title and the times Nightwing crossed path with Batman and his second Robin allowed them to form the bond between brothers. Even though Dick being viewed as the golden boy by his mentor had Jason wanting to prove himself to the better Robin than his older adopted brother. Back when Dick was still living with his parents at the circus, Tim saw their act with his parents and was amazed by it. Years later when Jason was killed, while Dick was devastated by his brother's death, Tim recognizing the acrobat-like movements of the first Robin got him to realise that Robin was the Grayson boy. Tim had also noticed that the "disappearance" of the second Robin had affected Batman and decides to become the next Robin.

Dick welcomed Tim to the team, while Jason was being brought back to life and felt betrayed when he learned about his replacement. Just as Dick had acknowledged Jason as his brother, he and Tim had also formed a brother-like bond from their time working together. After Tim became an orphan like Dick and Jason before him, he gets taken in by the same man who took in his predecessors. Making the three of them official brothers. Jason's dislike of Tim had the two as enemies until they formed a type of truce. While Dick takes it upon himself to ensure the peace between the three of them is kept. Making Dick the leader of the former Robins trio.

Gotham by Gaslight
The Victorian set film has the three as young street orphans who became each other's family, after they lost their parents or ran away from a far worse life. Only to find themselves being forced to become thieves for a man who'll just come after them should they try to leave. Like most people in Gotham, the three had heard whispers about the Batman. Those whispers made Tim nervous while Dick and Jason try to reassure the youngest boy that Batman was just something that grownups had up. Like Santa, so kids like them won't try to do bad things in order to survive. Until the three learn that he is real on the night he gave them the chance to escape Big Bill Gus, along with advising the boys to seek shelter at a church that takes in orphans like them. There the three were taught how to be good by the Sister who later gets killed by Jack the Ripper.

With Sister Lesily gone, Jason decided to go back to his thieving ways only to get scolded by Dick when Jason got caught by the old man he tried to rob. Tim stands by Dick's side as the oldest boy reminds Jason what the late Sister tried to teach them, along with asking the man to not turn Jason over to the police. Luckily the Wayne butler decided to hire the three for odd jobs and gives them food. When it came to doing those jobs, Jason wanted them to take the horse, cart and mysterious package for themselves, but Tim didn't want them to betray the man who fed them. Along with Dick wanting the three of them to do what they were asked. The three boys also join Alfred to save Batman and Salina from the burning fair ground. Batman asked Alfred if the three were his, but the butler informs his master master that the boys aren't his as they belong to him. While two of the adults were saddened by the destroyed fair, the three young boys tell them they'll make something new and real together.

Death in the Family
One of the choices in the interact film can have Jason listening to Dick's stories on Batman after he died in his place. Jason made him believe that he wants to bring in Joker the way Bruce would have wanted them to, while he really wants to kill the clown for getting their father killed. After Jason killed him, the choice of Jason not turning himself in has him becoming a serial killer version of Red Robin. The good ending of this path leads to Jason meeting Tim Drake. Who reminds Jason of the good person he was once and gets him to end his killing ways. A choice that has Dick and the others welcome Jason back, as well as welcoming Tim to their family. Instead of becoming Robin Tim gets called "Batkid" to honour the original Dark Knight, as Dick became Batman after Bruce's death while Jason remains Red Robin. Both Dick and Tim ensure that the redeemed Jason doesn't stray from the path Bruce set them on again.

Fanon
Dick, Jason and Tim are seen as there of the five top Robins in the Batman series. The three being adopted brothers who have each served as the Boy Wonder and later created new hero identities for themselves, before Stephanie Brown and Damian Wayne came along. When Jason was revealed to be with the League of Assassins in the Young Justice series, it got YJ fans to wonder if the series ever plans to have Dick and Tim learn that their brother is alive. Because the Titans series doesn't have Tim as one of Bruce's wards and the fact that Jason and Tim haven't interacted with one another in the live-action series every much, DickJayTim isn't supported very much in the Titans fandom. The same with the Young Justice and DC Animated Universe fandoms, even though Jason does get added to DCAU in one of the continuum comics of Batman: The Animated Series.

On AO3 the family-ship has 375+ fanfics, along with 288+ "poly" fics. The large number of poly fanfics could be due to the time before Tim officially became Dick and Jasons' brother, from how Tim still had his parents when he started out as Robin before they died and Bruce decided to adopt him. Some DickJayTim fans like to focus on their Gotham by Gaslight counterparts in their fanart and fanfics on the film. As they imagine their time on the streets together and after they get taken in by Bruce.
