    Summary

    Damian couldn’t help but flinch and let out a surprised gasp. He turned around carefully to meet the expressionless helmet of the Red Hood.
    “Ah, sorry, didn’t mean to frighten ya” the crime lord said, Crime Alley accent thick. “Should have known better than to sneak up on an Alley kid.”
    There was not enough light for Hood to see his face, and in the darkness Damian resembled any other street kid.

    --

    Or Damian disregard his father's orders and goes in Crime Alley to feed the stray cats. He meets Gotham's newest crime lord: the Red Hood.

    Summary

    Tim was always holding his breath. Waiting. Filled with anticipation.

    He'd spent most of his childhood that way, alone in Drake Manor hoping his parents would come home soon, crouched behind air conditioning units on top of buildings for the bats to fly by, sitting at a school desk watching the clock more sharply than paying attention to a teacher, clipping film to clothesline to dry and hoping he'd gotten a good shot. So Tim had made a game of it. He'd try to hold his breath for as long as he could while completing a task, just to see how far he could get.

    It was easy for simple things, like doing dishes or math problems. It was much, much harder for others. But some things? Some things it made exquisite.

    Summary

    Seven months on the run since his escape from Arkham, Jason makes the impulsive decision to go back home. A move that leaves his ex-family in panic as they try to figure out if his peace offers are genuine, how likely he is to shoot them, and how to undo generational trauma. 

    Also, there are the hallucinations that keep following him, but that's probably normal. No one ever said vigilantes had to be well-adjusted.

    Summary

    A complaint from Gotham’s ornithological community about Red Robin for stalking and harassing, one about Nightwing and Orphan over psychological torture, and finally, Red Hood…Oh, God, Bruce would be leaving that one for last.

    Or, The Justice League’s HR department has received some complaints about Bruce's children for the founding members to solve. Bruce should have called in sick.

    Summary

    Whoever we were before this island is gone. 

    The memories of every survivor who woke up are gone, leaving them with nothing but their name.

    But the body remembers what the mind can't. 

    Instinct. 

    Muscle memory. 

    The particular way each of them moves toward danger instead of away from it.

    The island isn't empty. Rescue isn't coming. And something has been watching them since they washed ashore.

    Bruce looked at the faces he knew were supposed to be important to him but couldn't remember and made the only call that mattered.

    "Whoever we were before the island doesn't matter anymore. We just have to do what we need to survive."
