    Summary

    “Gotham! I am here tonight to show you the hideous face of 'truth' and its destructive power to tear apart even the closest of bonds! We’re all held together only by illusions and lies, and the ‘truth’ dissolves them all." The new villain Veritas turned towards Bruce, syringe out and pointed towards the arm chained to his podium.“NOW! Under the compulsion of the serum, expose your true feelings: Tell the world what you hate the most about: Nightwing.”

    Dick froze—every argument, every accusation thrown between the two running through his mind. He wasn’t sure if he could take it—to hear it spoken truthfully and directly. Hearing all of Bruce’s hatred, contempt, and disappointment in him poured out not just in a heated yelling match in the cave but in front of Damian, in front of the whole world.

    Bruce coughed, blood flicking from his lips from a failed attempt to bite his tongue, and Dick hung his head in resignation. It was at least nice to know Bruce wasn’t eager to dump out his true feelings.

    “His suit.” Bruce choked, and the room went silent.

    AKA: This is just a fun little thing. Bruce loves his kids so much

    Summary

    Tim is almost-finally training to be Robin, kind of. (Emphasis on the “almost”). (Emphasis on the “kind of”).

    He’s been sparring with the Hood, Gotham’s newest vigilante, but Hood doesn’t know Tim as Tim, he knows Tim as Jason, but Tim knows that Hood is actually Jason, and honestly, Tim’s just writing the rules up as he goes.

    And the stakes are only getting higher. After tragedy strikes the Drakes, Tim ends up in Bruce’s care just as a new series of gruesome crimes plagues Gotham. More than ever, Bruce is determined to keep Tim out of it.

    Tim does not keep out of it. (And there are consequences to starting fights you don’t know how to win).

     

    Title taken from “To an Athlete Dying Young” by A.E. Housman.

    Summary

    Damian was not the sort of boy to mince words; perhaps he could get back to the Manor without alerting Drake to his compromised condition.

    It would be an exercise in espionage, he decided.

    Summary

    your skull cracks, your spine halves in two, your heart breaks. but gods love to play tricks on mortals and they gift you a few minutes of suffering while you stare wide-eyed into the sky.

    no one is around to check on you. no one is around to cradle you and whisper regrets and sorrows and meaningful goodbyes into your ears.

    you die alone.

    or, god tommy has pretty privilege but he's also on the verge of snapping everyone's neck except for michael's :)) and he’s very fucking petty and not that intimidating when you look at him closely
